Best Crystals for Every Room in Your Home
Forget minimalism—crystals are maximalism for the soul. Each room has its own vibe, and no one wants the kitchen to feel like the bedroom (unless it's 3 a.m.
and snacks are involved).
Here's a room-by-room guide to crystal-charging the home like a modern mystic with interior taste.
Living Room – Amethyst
The chill bouncer of the house party. Amethyst clears energy like it's running late to therapy, keeping drama out and vibes calm. Ideal for where guests gather and the WiFi mysteriously stops working.
Kitchen – Carnelian
Because the kitchen isn't just for burnt toast. Carnelian brings creativity, courage, and energy—so yes, it's basically Gordon Ramsay with a better attitude.
Bedroom –
Rose Quartz
Classic softie. Rose Quartz is all about love, self-care, and peaceful sleep. Like that supportive friend who sends long text messages after every bad date.
Bathroom – Clear Quartz
Pure, versatile, and doesn't mind humidity. Clear Quartz amplifies intentions, so it's perfect for all the 'reset your day' routines and occasional mirror pep talks.
Office or Study – Fluorite
Mental focus in a polished rock. Fluorite cuts brain fog and supports productivity without caffeine-induced spiral energy.

Undo
The crystal equivalent of a reliable Wi-Fi connection.
Entryway – Black Tourmaline
The bouncer at the door. Black Tourmaline absorbs negative vibes like a gossip magnet and keeps weird energy from entering—especially after that coworker visits.
Dining Room – Citrine
Abundance, joy, and enough glow to make even awkward dinner convos feel festive. Citrine brings warmth and optimism to shared meals and overcooked pasta nights.
Children's Room – Moonstone
Gentle, intuitive, and full of comfort. Moonstone supports emotional balance and imagination, perfect for dreamers still deciding if they're pirates or astronauts.
Meditation Corner – Selenite
High-vibe and zero-maintenance. Selenite cleanses other crystals and invites peace. It's the Marie Kondo of the spiritual world—everything feels lighter with it around.

Pushing the padel: Why this tennis-squash hybrid is catching urban imagination
1 2 Gurgaon: The thwack of balls against glass walls echoes through an air-conditioned container-like structure, sitting in the middle of a large spread of empty plot. Inside, players dart across courts, wielding what appears to be a hybrid between a tennis racquet and a table tennis paddle. Forty-love, calls out the referee. The court, in a glass enclosure, resembles squash. What are we watching? This is the world of padel, the latest racquet sport to capture urban imaginations. Delhi-based lawyer Daksha Arora (34) had never played a racquet sport before. But now, she's a regular at Rulo Club in Panchsheel Park. "I play padel thrice a week. Initially, I had started with pickleball, but the sound of the plastic ball irked me. I saw people playing padel in the adjacent court and got hooked to it with time," she says.

The game uses a foam and optical fibre racquet with holes instead of strings, making it lighter and more manageable than its tennis counterpart. Players initiate rallies with underhand serves, and the glass walls become part of strategic gameplay — if the ball hits the opposition's glass wall directly, you earn a point. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like TV providers are furious: this gadget gives you access to all channels Techno Mag Learn More Undo But if it bounces off during play, the rally continues. Padel has been around. It originated in Mexico in the last 60s and became Spain's second-most popular sport after soccer. Its journey in India began only a decade ago. But over the last 12 months, padel's popularity has been witnessing a surge. "Today, there are 40 padel courts in Delhi-NCR. In the last three months alone, we added 18 courts," says Suhail Narain, founder of Hudle, which facilitates court bookings. Gurgaon, with its indoor courts, has many padel enthusiasts sweating it out, providing a recreation sport alternative to tennis, badminton and pickleball, guaranteeing good cardio and a workout for those muscles.

Ronnie Sehgal, general secretary of IPF, traces the sport's roots in India to a tennis exchange programme. Sneha Abraham Sehgal, president of IPF, discovered padel in Spain and was determined to introduce it to India, leading to the installation of the first padel court in Bengaluru in 2016. But it was the pandemic-induced lockdown that proved to be a turning point for padel in the country. While most sports were restricted in the UAE, padel thrived. This led to a surge in interest among Indians living in or visiting Dubai. The enthusiasm gradually spread back home. Today, it's showing in the increase in the number of padel courts in cities. Padel is also attracting corporate interest. Last year, JSW Sports backed Padel Park in a funding round to expand franchise centres. It's Mumbai that currently boasts the most vibrant padel scene, with celebrities like David Beckham, MS Dhoni, Alia Bhatt, and Varun Dhawan adding to the sport's allure in courts there. The sport's growth, however, is not without challenges. Setting up a padel court can be expensive, with costs ranging from Rs 16 lakh to Rs 22 lakh. Nikhil Sachdev, co-founder of Padel Park India, acknowledges the financial barriers, but is optimistic about the sport's potential. "In the last 18 months, we've installed about 150 padel courts across the country," he says. IPF has initiated efforts to make padel more affordable, particularly in Tier 2 cities. "We're working with clubs to encourage more inclusive pricing and community engagement," says Sehgal. The federation, he adds, is also focused on developing international-level coaching to produce advanced players capable of competing on the world stage by 2026. For many, padel is more than just a sport — it's a lifestyle. Karan Singh Chabbra, a brand consultant, sees padel as a social activity that brings people together. "Now, there are padel courts, and there are cafes on the side. So, people come, they sip coffee, they talk, they play a game, they come back and spend the day," he says. Whether it's a fun alternative to cardio or a serious athletic pursuit, padel is carving out a niche for itself — slowly but steadily.

Hailee Steinfeld's dad goes viral as fans say he could suit up for Josh Allen's Buffalo Bills
Pete Steinfeld, Hailee Steinfeld's father and Josh Allen's father-in-law, is gaining attention for his impressive physique (IMAGO / ZUMA Press Wire) While Josh Allen dominates headlines as one of the NFL's most formidable quarterbacks, it's his new father-in-law, Pete Steinfeld, who's unexpectedly capturing attention with his jacked physique and no-nonsense fitness routine. After walking his daughter, actress Hailee Steinfeld, down the aisle during her wedding to Allen earlier this year, Pete is now the unexpected star of her latest Beau Society newsletter. Hollywood trainer turned NFL father-in-law shows off late-night workout grind Pete Steinfeld isn't just Hailee's dad—he's also a longtime Hollywood personal trainer who's worked with top-tier actors, directors, and producers since the 1980s. But when it comes to his favorite client, there's no competition. 'I love them all. But I'd say this loud and clear to any one of them: Nothing tops the pleasure I get from working with my daughter,' Pete said in the August 1 issue of Beau Society. His dedication is unmatched. Pete trains solo—at 1 a.m., no music, no distractions. 'I'm a disciplined person. I train at one o'clock in the morning. I'm by myself. I have zero distractions,' he revealed. 'It's the same for me. I really enjoy that time in the gym, and I don't want to share it with anyone or music. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like American Investor Warren Buffett Recommends: 5 Books For Turning Your Life Around Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo It's just me.'

Their shared discipline underscores the tight-knit nature of the Steinfeld family—and hints at why Hailee and Allen's marriage seems grounded despite their high-profile lives. Pete, ever humble, has one clear mission: 'What I hope to do is change people's lives, make them feel a little bit better than they did before they came into the gym.'
