Amethyst is an emotionally healing stone, in the past I have recommended to different clients to keep it at their beside for good sleep & protection.

Amethyst is also a great stone to give to children and adults for healing past life wounds along with personal losses and grief.

Amethyst has a gentle sedative energy that promotes peacefulness, happiness, and contentment. It also is said to bring emotional stability and inner strength.
I also like giving Amethyst to anyone dealing with addiction.

Amethyst is also excellent for meditation and lucid dreaming. It helps with opening your channels to your Angels, brings forwad past life recall ,clairaudience, clairvoyance, and communication with angels. Amethyst also protects against psychic attacks, especially during spiritual work
