Better Mental Health with Crystals

World Health Day is a global health awareness day that first began in 1950 and was started by the World Health Organisation (WHO) as well as other related organisations. To celebrate, I am going to show you my top 15 favourite crystals for mental health.

While there are crystal recommendations for specific mental illnesses, I am going to focus on your overall mental health today.
