We and everything in the world around us is made up of energy, crystals form over millions of years and each have different chemical components and energy frequency. Our bodies also have energy, we all give off this energy, our aura and our chakras (energy centres) function alongside our physical body and are intertwined. We can use the energy of crystals to influence our own energies, working with our emotions, beliefs and spirituality. When our energies become blocked or stuck we can use crystals to get ourselves back in flow and more aligned with our true selves.

Some Crystals will bring strength and protection others will allow us to be open and receiving of ideas or energy you most need. You can choose to research the energy of different crystals but often you will just feel drawn to them, trust your intuition here, if it feels right go with it. By the very nature of this energy work we should be lead by how we feel and what we connect with, it’s often what we need whether we have realised it or not.

If you are gifting a crystal spend a moment thinking of the person you are getting that crystal for, focus on them as you make your choice.

At green moon baby spa I have a small and developing collection of crystals chosen with the 4th trimester in mind. Working with my own and other’s experience of this time of transition, physical and emotional recovery and replenishment I have made these available first.

Of course if you feel drawn to a particular crystal for it’s meaning or just…because, then it is for you, it can become a part of your selfcare and personal development journey.
