   Meditating with crystals

   Crystals can help to focus and clear the morning for meditation. Reiki meditation with crystals will help your mind unwind and bring more energy and creativity to your thoughts

   How to meditate

   Find a quiet space at a time when you won't be disturbed by anybody. Place your crystals around you and if you wish put on some gentle music. Light a candle and incense to create the soft private ambiance perfect for meditation

   1. Relax by breathing slowly and deeply so that you become assented and calm. Focus on your breathing as you inhale and exhale letting go of tension and day to day thoughts.
   2. Choose one crystal to focus on and allow yourself to explore it with all your senses.  Feel its facets and look carefully at it. Hold it closely and examine it, then place it down before you. Notice its surface is colours and textures
   3. Pick up the crystal and hold it in both hands or let your hands play with the crystal passing it between both your palms. Close your eyes and connect with the crystal.
   4. Beware of any sensations you experience, physical, emotional, mental and spiritual. Stay with this process for around 10 minutes minimum or longer if you have the time

   Daily meditation with your crystals helps you find space within a busy life and gain perspective on everyday worries. It will open your mind to new possibilities and give you a different more positive view on life.

   Crystals on the Move

   Crystals do not have to be large pieces that stay in the home, you can have them so they are with you all the time. Here are just some ideas about how and what to do with your smaller pieces of crystal

   Carrying Crystals

   This is one of the simplest ways of working with crystals and allows you to have several with you at any one time. Put them in your pocket, your bra or place them in a drawstring pouch tied to your belt or other convenient item, secure them in your wallet or purse (citrine is a great crystal to have in your purse at all times because it attracts wealth) take them out regularly to hold or rub them or to place them on your body for healing (will be covered in a later blog)

   Wearing Crystals

   Crystals have been worn throughout history treasured for their beauty and power of crystal.  The remains of jewellery have been found in ancient graves around the world. Wearing crystals gives you the benefit of decorative adornment while having their beneficial energies constantly near you. It is also worth considering how you wear crystal jewellery. A short pendant or choker will fall on the throat area which is also the location of the throat chakra so you might like to choose a crystal linked with communication and the colour blue which are the this chakra's attributes. Wearing a Lapis Lazuli a choker or short pendant for example will help you express yourself so this would be the perfect item to choose on a day when being understood is important. Presentations, meetings and interviews will all benefit from blue throat chakra crystals.

   Giving Crystals as Gifts

   Crystals make perfect gifts for all occasions you can give birthstones to anyone at any time and they make a lovely gift to mark a child's birth you can select crystals for weddings anniversary's birthdays and housewarmings or to say thank you I love you sorry or get well soon think carefully about the recipient of a crystal while you are making your selection to be sure you pick the right one.
