Soothing Vibe

Take time out for yourself and unwind! Doing so can have enormous positive benefits to both physical and mental wellbeing. Surrounding yourself with relaxing vibes can help lower stress levels, decrease blood pressure and enhance mood! Bring this peaceful ambiance to your next event by connecting with vendors offering yoga classes, massage therapy or wellness fairs such as The Deck’s wellness fairs.

High Consciousness

Meditation can help to relax the mind, focus on positive thoughts and increase feelings of serenity and inner peace. Crystals can amplify your intentions to enhance meditation practice even further and make it easier for you to access specific meditative states.

Consider both its healing properties and color when selecting a crystal for meditation, such as amethyst’s ability to bring clarity and enhance mental focus or rose quartz’s promotion of peace of mind. Citrine can help calm emotions while increasing intuition while selenite helps increase spiritual awareness.

To maximize the benefits of your crystal, cleanse and charge it prior to meditation. This will remove any negative energies it has taken in from its environment so it can channel healing energy directly to you during your sessions. You can do this using sage, moonlight or bath. When placing it on an altar or crystal grid for display during sessions.

Psychic Abilities

Psychics possess psychic abilities such as feeling vibrations, seeing flashes of light or images, hearing messages or guidance that others cannot hear, sensing scents belonging to loved ones who have crossed over, as well as experiencing unexplainable fears, phobias and memories from a deeper level. Furthermore, these people tend to possess a high emotional intelligence as well as tolerance for ambiguity.

Building psychic senses is an effective way to access your intuition, which resides in another area of your brain than conscious thought. Tapping into this resource can help provide answers for unanswered questions or offer new solutions and perspectives on an issue you are currently dealing with.

Debbie suggests practicing psychometry, the art of reading someone’s energy by holding an item belonging to them (such as jewelry). When doing this with friends or family members, take note of any impressions such as visuals, sounds, feelings in your body or hunches you receive. In addition to psychometry, environmental scans allow one to observe a room for sights, sounds and scents.

Mindfulness

Meditation is an effective tool that helps you relax and focus on achieving your goals. Crystals are natural earth-based energy healers that can add an extra element to your meditation sessions; depending on the type of crystal selected it could amplify your intention or help access specific meditative states.

Start off your meditation practice by selecting a crystal that resonates with your intentions for meditation, and cleansing it of any unwanted energies it has absorbed through methods such as smudging with palo santo or placing it under moonlight or sunlight.

Once your crystal has been cleansed and set an intention, begin meditation by holding it in your hands. Close your eyes and allow its energy to merge with yours, supporting your meditation goals. Take note of any messages your crystal may be providing throughout the session – they could come in the form of shadings, sounds, sensations in the body or visuals; at its conclusion note how you felt and thank it.
