Tree of Life Pendant with Smokey Quartz Crystals(for grief, trauma)

On January 5th, the phone rang, my gut just twisted, because you know it’s way too early for the phone to be ringing with good news. “My husband’s dead, he died!”, she cried. “What?”, I blasted back, this guy’s 38 years old, he’s not dead, no way. “He killed himself.” Was her reply.

I panicked. We are so geographically far away, I needed to hold her, she needed someone to cry on. After I heard the details, I started to calm myself down (with the help of a sodalite crystal, excellent for panic attacks). And got out of my head and into my heart. And that’s exactly what I told her to do. A person can spiral so far down by staying too long in their head in an extreme situation like this. Actually it doesn’t take very long for one to spiral once the process is started, and it doesn’t take much for it to start. Getting out of one’s head and into one’s heart is going to be helpful, sometimes it’s hard to get there, I know…

After we talked for a while I switched to, “I-need-to-do-something-meaningful-for-her” mode. When the tough gets going, I make jewelry for people, usually using crystals, which I think are so powerful. I made her this Tree of Life pendant using smokey quartz crystals. I love it. I get tears in my eyes whenever I see or think of smokey quartz, and what makes this pendant even more special to me, and to her, I hope, is that after she received it she told me she has a tattoo that is almost identical to it. I did not know that. I got the full body tingles, like when after you’re done the dishes and the soap bubbles leave a heart-shape. Or when you hear a baby or young child get the uncontrollable giggles, that result in the hiccups. Or when your little daughter hands you a piece of paper that reads, “I think YOU can do anything” right when you’re feeling pretty down, beat-up and not good enough.

I’m off topic now, but I have chosen to see, hear and believe in the little things. These so-called “little things” are what help keep me going, to me these things are HUGE, to me they are life, they are love.

When you are feeling rotten, down, tired of all the bull-crap, need to make an important decision, get out of your head and into your heart.

The Power of Crystals

Crystals are so beautiful and crystals are so powerful. I love them. I have worked with them to heal. We have healed infected earring holes, ear infections, colds, flus, knees, headaches, migraines, sore throats, nausea, constipation, eczema, gout, the blues, roseola, fevers, concussions, the list goes on.

I have been exhausted from receiving a Karmic Core Cleansing. I have been having various symptoms ranging from exhaustion to feeling blah. Earlier tonight was too tired to get up and grab my crystals to do a crystal healing session on myself. What did I do to get myself into this current state of elevated energy and mental clarity? I asked my Crystal Guide to activate whichever crystals I needed at the time and to send me their healing energy. Not ten minutes ago I was incapacitated, laying in bed, way too exhausted to do anything but lie there feeling sorry for myself. Now I am up, tapping out this post, with bells on, I might add. I don’t think I’ll be jogging on the spot any time this evening, but I made myself a hot chocolate and am gearing myself up to do a Karmic Core Cleansing session on a client, via Long Distance Healing.
