EMMA LUCY KNOWLES
Life is powerful but so are you
When you harness, change, charge, heal and transform your energy you can change your life. This is an amazing gift. Feeling powerful in yourself is possible for everyone and much more achievable with a little help from some crystal sets.
We dont ever have to go through life, adventure, heartbreak, work, fear or fun on our own, but we can go through it at our own pace. We can do it loudly or we can do it in silence. And, most importantly, we can harness our own personal magic and allow ourselves to be enlarged, amplified and empowered by the hidden treasures held within natures gems better known to you and me as crystals.
Crystals are the ultimate powerhouses of the Earth, ready to raise your vibrations and share their healing properties to walk with you, explore with you and teach you, to help you to develop your intuition and deepen your connection with yourself and your own personal energy.
Crystals are forever
Crystals are naturally occurring minerals with a unique crystal structure, formed under pressure over millions of years.
Crystals have been gracefully adorning our necks, rings, goblets and temples for years, decades and generations. They were a fond favorite of the Egyptians who turned the reflective magic of the hematite crystal into mirrors; the Greeks used to rub the same stone on their soldiers bodies before they charged into battle. The Romans instinctively knew how to use these precious gems to enhance their health, and set in crowns, tiaras and goblets, jewels have been adopted by royalty to radiate their power. Practitioners of Chinese medicine are still using rose quartz on the tip of acupuncture needles to deepen the healing process.
Instinctively we know that there is something special about these colorful and wondrous natural gems Crystal Meditation is probably one of the reasons you picked up this book, right? Crystals are forever, but this buzz may be new to you.
Perhaps youve been given a piece or youve got a chunk sitting on your desk as you were told it will stop that ever-growing negativity virus. Maybe you wear the most precious of crystals within a ring to reflect the value of your love. Or maybe youve read about the beauty of crystals in a magazine, or theyve danced in their thousands across your Instafeed. Maybe you like the color and the shape, the way they feel but you dont really know why. However you use them, however they call to you its all good.
GETTING INTO THE VIBE
We live in a world of constant shift, vibration and energy. The world is powered by a flaming ball of energy at its very core and a flaming ball of energy in the skies. This energy cannot be missed even when it cannot be seen, it can be felt. And we are the same. We our spirit, our life force are all about energy: energy channellers, energy magnets, energy sponges, energy enhancers, energy seekers, energy, energy, energy and then some. The whole world is made of energy every person, every object is vibrating at different frequencies. When we are happy and buzzing, we emit high vibes, and when we are burnt out and down we emit low vibes. Energy is fluid and changeable, and we can use crystals to change this energy and align ourselves with the vibe we desire.
RAISE YOUR VIBRATIONS
So, how do crystals work? We all know people who hype us up and chill us down, dont we? We all have a favorite shade of lipstick that gives us that extra zing, that trusted pair of pajamas that instantaneously makes us feel comfortable and at home. Well, think of your crystals just like that a bespoke tool kit with each piece owning, harnessing, attracting and promoting its own special properties, its own power that resonates with your energy, your vibe, to aid you in a particular life event, moment or situation or to change, align or heighten your mood. Perhaps life is giving you a headache and you need some clarity; perhaps your heart feels broken but youre toying with jumping back on the dating horse and need some support and encouragement; or perhaps youre about to give the presentation of your life and are in much need of a power zap of confidence Happy, sad, empowering, energizing you name it, there is a crystal to support you.
Crystals are truly powerful: they work to heal or realign our energy that vibe within and without us when its out of swing or to amplify and enhance good vibes to help us feel more alive and to help bring within reach all those desires and goals we are hoping to fulfil. They are here to help us glow, to shine a light on those features of the self that we wish to heighten and brighten, but theyre also here to teach us, to guide us, to work with us in the lifelong process of letting go of what no longer serves us.
CONNECTING CRYSTALS TO YOU AND YOUR LIFE
This book will help you to tap into your power by drawing on the energy of your crystals in your own personal practice. You can align yourself to their vibe by gently holding them while sitting in meditation, or adorning your energy centers, your chakras, while lying down. You can carry them with you in your everyday life: skin-on-skin is superbly powerful but crystals are strong enough to vibrate through your jeans or jacket pocket (if youre not yet ready to walk into a meeting and lay your crystal out with your day book in front of your boss). My pockets, my fingers, even my bra are full of them! My desk, my home, my kitchen sink are all glistening with them. Place them against parts of your body or on energy centers, and in areas of your life and home that need healing.
We can look at them and feel their warmth, much like a photo on the living-room wall that invokes a smile by reconnecting us with a good memory or a treasured time and place. We can take them into the bath and use the water to amplify their vibration; they can join us as a passenger in the car or on a plane when were traveling far from home. We can put them on full display for the world to see or we can them keep them hidden away, tucked under our pillow just for us. Any way as long as it works for you is OK.
