HOW TO CLEANSE YOUR CRYSTAL JEWELLERY

by Zenobia of Zenergë Gemz


Just as we absorb energy from the day,  conversations, environments, screens… your crystals do too.

Cleansing is never about fear or paranoia.

It’s simply like bathing after being out in the world. It is a reset.

Your Zenergë Gemz pieces are cleansed and activated before they reach you.

But as you wear them, they’ll be working with:

  • Your emotions
  • Your nervous system
  • Your environment

Giving them a little energetic refresh keeps them light, clear and responsive.

Below are simple, safe ways to cleanse your crystal jewellery at home.

How often should I cleanse my crystals?

There is no rigid rule. You can cleanse:

  • Whenever a piece feels heavy, dull or off
  • After intense days, big emotional releases or crowded places
  • At the start of a new cycle or intention

For most people, cleansing every 1~2 weeks (or when your intuition nudges you) is perfect.




Breath & Intention (gentle & quick)

This is my favourite for everyday reset and it’s safe for all stones.

  1. Hold your jewellery in both hands.
  2. Take a slow inhale.
  3. On your exhale, gently blow over the piece, imagining a soft wave of light flowing through it.
  4. Say (out loud)
    “I release all energy my crystal no longer needs to carry. Only what is pure, loving and aligned may remain.”

This is powerful because your intention is the cleanser.

You are the priestess/keeper of your Zenergë Gemz.

Smoke (incense or herbs)

You can use:

  • Incense such as frankincense, myrrh or copal
  • Sage, palo santo (ethically sourced) or loose herbal blends
  1. Light your chosen herb or incense and let it smoke gently.
  2. Pass your jewellery slowly through the smoke.
  3. Imagine the smoke lifting away anything heavy, leaving your jewellery bright and clear.

Always burn safely, with plenty ventilation and a fire proof dish.

Sound (for the sound lovers)

Sound moves energy beautifully.

You can cleanse your Zenergë Gemz by placing them near:

  • A singing bowl
  • Chimes
  • Gentle drumming
  • Even your own humming or toning
  1. Lay your jewellery on a cloth or small plate.
  2. Create sound around it for a few minutes.
  3. Visualise the sound waves washing through the crystals, shaking off what’s not needed.

Salt (dry only)

Salt is a strong cleanser, but it can be harsh on metals and softer stones and so we do this carefully. 

If preferred you can lay down your jewellery on a cloth before placing it on the salt, so that it is not directly touching the salt. Then leave it for a few hours or overnight.

Crystalline Cleansing (using other stones)

Some crystals are like natural energy purifiers.

Two gentle favourites:

  • Selenite 
  • Clear Quartz clusters

You can:

  1. Place your jewellery on a selenite plate or beside a selenite wand.
  2. Or rest it on/near a clear quartz cluster.

Leave it there for a few hours or overnight.

This is a very soft, loving cleanse.

A note about water & sunlight

Many crystals do not like water as it can dissolve, crack or dull them. Since your Zenergë Gemz also include metal, I don’t recommend water as a primary cleansing method.

Direct sunlight can fade some stones over time (like amethyst and rose quartz), so if you use sun for cleansing, keep it brief.

I’ll share more about charging with light in the next blog.

Closing your cleanse

After cleansing, take a moment to seal the process. By holding your jewellery piece  and say...

“Thank you for working with me. I welcome you back, clear and bright, in full support of my highest good.”

Then put it on and notice how it feels.

Your crystals love your clear, loving intention. Cleansing is simply part of your connectedness.
