The Natural Antidepressant
Lepidolite serves as an effective balm to the soul for those experiencing intense mood swings, emotional instability, or overwhelming moments of anxiety and depression.
Lepidolite is praised far and wide for its miraculous mood-stabilising properties. This crystal contains a high percentage of lithium, which is often used in anti-anxiety treatments.
The Lepidolite crystal is soft and brittle and can therefore only be cut and shaped when found within a larger quartz body. While the crystal itself is not uncommon, one that can be transformed into jewelry is rare, and therefore precious.
The Lepidolite crystal is commonly referred to as “the stone of transition” and there is a good reason for this. Spiritual healers and crystal gurus believe that it assists in the releasing of stagnant negative energies and behaviours that are no longer serving you while encouraging the ushering in of change-inducing practices. In essence, it breaks harmful psychological patterns and forms new and uplifting ones. This allows for a deep reset that in turn, encourages emotional healing and stability while also alleviating your anxieties and depression.
The Lepidolite crystal has also been used to assist in the treatment of addiction. While it is no substitute for a rehabilitation program, a counsellor, or the help of a trained medical professional, it can certainly encourage a profound mindset shift that can aid in the release of the mental or emotional dependency that fuels addictive tendencies.
