Take A Bath With Crystals And Gemstones
Have you ever taken a bath with a crystal or gemstone?
It might sound strange at first to think about putting stones in your bath tub, this is just one more way of receiving the healing benefits that gemstones can offer us.
What do you look forward to after a long stressful day at work? Coming home and taking a long, hot bath, right? We all know that soaking in a tub after a hard day helps to melt away the stress, so adding soothing, calming stones like Lepidolite, Larimar, or Kunzite to your bath water will help calm and relax you after the day from “hell”.
Here is my favorite recipe for a relaxing bath:
- Place a piece of Lepidolite into the tub allowing the water to run over it as the tub fills. If you have more than one piece you can add them too.

If you truly want to enjoy this special time of year, give yourself some self nurturing. I’ve put together 7 different gemstones that can help alleviate stress.
Here are some ways to use Crystals & Gemstones to help you stay in the holiday spirit of love, joy and happiness.

New Quartz Crystal Collection
Well, I’ve done it again! I just acquired a collection of crystals and stones from a private collector. Buying stones from a private collector is much different than buying stones from professional dealers. Dealers carry great quantities of stones and selection, but the stones aren’t always good quality. Often I will look at hundreds of stones before I make a purchase because the quality and energy vibration just isn’t up to my standard. Prices from dealers are at current market rate which always seems to go higher and higher each year.
The benefits from buying crystals from a private collector is that each stone is hand picked one at a time, rather than bulk purchasing. Many dealers buy barrels of stones at a time. Literally tons of rocks to get their best price.
This most recent collection comes from someone who carefully selected his stones, purchasing only the very best over a period of many years. >> Continue reading

Healing Crystals & Dancing Dolphins Workshop
I am so excited about teaching a crystal class on the water with the dolphins. This has long been a dream of mine to bring people out into a natural setting with the dolphins. I am so pleased to be working with Capt. Victoria on this next class on April 17, 2011.
This is sure to be a magical day on the water with Healing Crystals & Dancing Dolphins. We’ll explore the world of Crystals & Gemstones aboard the IMP II, a comfortable, shaded 25-ft. powerboat. We’ll be guided by Capt. Victoria of Dancing Dolphin Spirit Charters. She will bring us to a shallow, protected area where the healing electromagnetic field of the dolphins can be felt. We will glide over peaceful, serene waters. Snorkel the shallow coral and visit the dolphins colorful friends in their watery playground. Picnic on a tropical mangrove island with beautiful birds and natural beaches. Together we’ll experience the healing energies of the stones and offer that energy to the waters. >> Continue reading

Awakening on the Spiritual Path with Crystals & Stones
I went to Vermont in May to attend the Stones of the New Consciousness: Healing, Awakening and Co- creating with Crystals, Minerals and Gems. The conference was led by Robert Simmons author of “The Book of Stones” which in the field of Crystals is now considered the “must- have” book on learning about the metaphysical properties of gemstones.
This conference however went much further into the exploration of our relationship with the stones. I’ve been trying now for almost 2 weeks to put into words my experiences of this intensive workshop. What I’ve recently come to realize is, my difficulty in finding the words to describe what I learned at the 4 day seminar is beacuse this conference was more of an experience rather than “learning”. While my mind wants to make sense of the weekend, it was my heart, that was awakened into the awareness of a partnership with the stones. >> Continue reading
How To Choose Gemstones To Help Set Intention For The New Year
The power of this New Years Eve full moon/blue moon, can help us to get clear and focus on what we want to bring into our lives for the New Year. What a great opportunity we have this Thursday.
Full moon is a great time to energetically clear and cleanse your crystals and gemstones.The energy of the moonlight washes away anything that is no longer needed. I like to leave my stones out all night and into the next day so they can be charged by the light of the sun. The day before the full moon and the day after are also acceptable times to cleanse your stones. You can place them directly on the ground or put them on a soft cloth and lay them on a table where the moonlight will shine brightly onto the stones. Even if you live in a cold climate, you can place you stones by a window so that they will get flooded with the glowing white light of Grandmother moon. >> Continue reading
Get Some Sleep With The Gemstone PETALITE
While the holidays can be a time of celebration and fun they can also be a time of exhaustion. Traveling, parties, “on- the- go” can lead to sleep deprivation. Do you need a good nights sleep?
The stone I use to help me get to sleep and for going back to sleep if I awake during the night is the beautiful, soft energy of Petalite. Because Petalite is a Lithium bearing mineral it offers a soft balanced energy. Petalite’s energy is one of rest and healing. Petalite can take me to a space where worries and concerns melt away, so that I can easily drift off to sleep, worry free of the days events and tomorrows concerns. Petalite gives me a sense that all is right in the world. With a calm mind I can move into a restful state and give my body the sleep it needs so that I can be energized and vibrant to embrace all that this season has to offer. >> Continue reading
