Your Root is Evolving! Crystals to Help You Adapt + Thrive
There was something I learned years ago when I was training as a healer: If the energy centre at your root (at the base of your spine) is out of balance, then everything else will end up out of balance, too.
How to Trust + Follow Spirit
Times of great challenge are also times of great reclaiming: Reclaiming our feelings of resilience, personal power, faith, magic, and healing wisdom. Reclaiming old ways while adopting new. Reclaiming our sense of purpose, and conviction in what truly matters.
It is often in times of challenge or recovery that we turn more deeply to Spirit - for guidance, understanding, support.
Earth Grid Medicine Journey with Black Tourmaline
We'll be journeying through space/time to guides and realms that are very real, just very different from ours, but are aligned with us through the light to help us evolve. We'll be connecting directly with the crystalline grids, their consciousness + energy, and each other to heal, channel guidance, and become a source of friendship + support for one another.
You Are a Magnetic Force: A Crystal Manifestation Practice
One of the big lessons I think many of us took from 2020 was the necessity of being able to adapt and thrive. Change is the only constant, and so much feels beyond our control. And yet, there IS hope, opportunity, invention, innovation, and magnificent healing that is happening all over the world - right now.
How do we tap into that, and invite some of it our way?

Ever Had a Bad Reaction to a Crystal?
You thought crystals were supposed to help you feel better, not worse! Having a bad reaction to a crystal is actually not so uncommon - it’s something I’m asked about on a weekly basis. “What does it mean?” and, “what do I do with the crystal?”
What Does it Mean When You Break or Lose a Crystal?
There can be many possible reasons or meanings behind lost or broken crystals. Sometimes it’s just an unfortunate circumstance - things get lost, accidents happen. But the Universe can work in mysterious ways, and messages or miracles can be hidden behind the circumstances…
Crystal Healing for Pandemic Fatigue
The concern is that all of this will push us collectively to a mental health breaking point - but it doesn’t have to, we can find healthy ways to respond that will help pull us, our families, and our communities through, better and stronger!
Here are some crystal healing practices + suggestions that can help you…
Angelite Anxiety Relief Meditation
Scroll to the bottom of this post for a (free) separate audio file of just the meditation, for those of you who would like to download it to your devices and work with it regularly.
Angelite is a high-frequency crystal that helps bring us into the soothing presence of Spirit. It acts like a filter for the mind, helping to create a sense of calm, order, and connection to the present moment, allowing us to tune out the noise, static, or “monkey-mind” that adds to feelings of overwhelm, stress, and anxiety.
Crystal Support for Teachers
Teachers - you’ve been reaching out to me for support and I’m hearing you. Lots of stress, anxiety, uncertainty, and frustration, but at the end of the day you need to show up and stand up for your students.
So I’m breaking it down here in terms of the different energies + emotions you may be feeling or encountering as school starts up again, making crystal suggestions that can support you, and explaining how and why to work with them.
Receiving from the Moon: A Full Moon Crystal Ritual
Has wonder lost its value in our modern age? It’s what sparks the imagination, ignites passion, suggests possibility. It invites that magical question: “What If?…”
It reminds us that there is more to this world than our day-to-day existence.
It entices us to seek out that more, and to become it.
Becoming Your Dream: A Leo Moon Crystal Ritual
I think many of us (myself included) could do with a little Leo moon juice + some joyfully mad-passionate crystals right now...
Ascending Soul: Crystal Talisman Magic for the Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in Capricorn
This will be a very magical eclipse, one that can initiate us into a new way of being - individually, and collectively.
Don’t miss out if this calls to you and speaks to your soul, because it means your time of becoming is now.
Crystal Solstice + Eclipse Magic: The Descent of the Sacred Warrior
I experienced a powerful download yesterday. I was in my garden with my sceptre quartz, tuning into the energies of the solstice and the upcoming new moon in cancer + solar eclipse. What I received was an insight into the archetypal cycles, nature, and stories of humanity, and how they’re playing out now on a cosmic scale.
