Memorial Day is an opportunity to honor those who have given us so much. This American holiday was originally designated as a tribute for those men and women who gave their lives while serving their country. Today we use this time to recognize all those who sacrifice so that others can live freely and safely, including those currently serving and the families of our armed forces. One of...
Traditional gifts for Father’s Day include socks, sweaters, or the ever popular necktie.

Winter Blues
By Tara Mideaker
I never thought that it would happen to me. I watched it happen to others and empathized with the urge to just give in to the cold, dark days that make you want to forego your normal routine. While it is natural to rest during the winter months, it can be a challenge for most of us to give in and let go of our busy schedules. It...

By Nikki Boatright
There are 3 types of crystal skulls. Ancient crystal skulls, skulls that were created over 1500 years ago; old crystal skulls, skulls that were created less than 1500 years ago, and new or contemporary skulls, skulls created by carvers today. Crystal skulls have been around for thousands, maybe even millions of years. The origin...
Crystal Wabi Sabi
By Rachel Niemczyk
Wabi Sabi is an aesthetic originating from Japan which values the beauty of simplicity and imperfections. It supports the idea that perfection is overrated; details like worn paint or imperfectly blended colors give character and beauty to items. I learned first-hand that Wabi Sabi aptly describes how we should...
Crystals for Leadership
By Stephanie Arnold
Often when we think of great leaders, people like George Washington, Gandhi and Martin Luther King, Jr. come to mind. We admire the qualities in them that made them exceptional, and we strive to achieve these qualities in ourselves. All great leaders possess the ability to captivate their followers and earn trust and...
Pendulums are very useful when working with an animal companion. They can give you energy information on joints, organs, chakras, or anything you might like to know about an animal companion. Some do not like to be questioned, while others are very chatty. The use of a pendulum to obtain information without communication is very useful.
Information can be obtained a few feet away...

Crystals for Lent
By Debbie Elaine
You’ve probably heard people ask the question, “What are you giving up for Lent?” Many people think that Lent is a time of giving up fun stuff to try to be a better person - almost like a second chance to keep your new year resolutions. But it’s really about recognizing what needs to be left...
“Spice” Crystals

I have a group of crystals that I call my “Spice” crystals. These are the crystals that add an extra touch of energy to my...

I’ll Show You Mine, If You’ll Show Me Yours

Every crystal healer has one, hidden deep in a pocket, stashed inside a purse or hanging around their neck - often hidden from view, but still giving off their healing energies to those around them. I am referring to the crystal pouch or medicine bag that each healer holds dear, safely...

In January we designate a day to honor a man who had a dream. We all have dreams but Martin Luther King, Jr. was special because he was the best kind of dreamer – the kind who acts on his dreams. We celebrate Martin Luther King, Jr. Day to remember the life and contributions of a man who...
Crystals for Caregivers
By Tara Mideaker
One of the difficult times that any of us can experience is when illness strikes ourselves or a loved one.

Sleep Aids
By Lourdes Lebron
Although many of us try to get the recommended amount of sleep, there are times it’s as elusive as a winning lottery ticket.

Winter is in full swing in Virginia, where Healing Crystals is located, and we thought it would be a good idea to introduce some crystals that may make the winter time a little easier.

Obsidian for Calm, Balanced Energy
By Debbie Elaine
Recently I was struggling to work with a new group of students who are unusually energetic and almost manic most of the time.

Have you noticed the nearly unprecedented amount of focus on the year 2012? From websites to books to major motion pictures it is almost impossible not to get caught up in the hype, the forecasts and even the fears surrounding this pivotal year. While there is no doubt that we are in the midst of amazing changes, we seem to have forgotten that 2013 is here. 2013 will be...
Selenite
By Debbie Elaine
People often ask me, “What is your favorite crystal?” Honestly, I don’t have one - each time I think I do, another one finds a way to prove to me how awesome it is, and then I realize I just really like crystals, period. Still, the crystals I work with the most tend to be at the top of my “Favorite Crystals”...

Crystals can increase vibrations to assist in the release of blockages or can send more positive vibes to help a person achieve a more relaxed state. In the following article I’d like to give some ideas on how crystals...
Crystals for Changes & Transitions
By Rachel Niemczyk
Most people can look back from their current selves to how they were six months, one year, five years, ten years ago or more and recognize differences. Some are physical - a new haircut, a different clothing style, changes in location or occupation. Others are mental - learning a new subject, trying a...
Crystals at the Table
By Sonia Acone
For some years now, I’ve kept a dish of crystals on our kitchen table. The dish may change with the seasons or my moods, and the crystals often change to reflect what the family needs at certain times, but the message is always the same: the crystals stay on the table. My oldest son, Jeremy, started what is now...
A Guide to Crystal Gifting
By Tara Mideaker
If you are anything like me, you probably have friends, family and associates who just don't "get" crystals. Maybe they appreciate their decorative appeal and think of them as cool knick-knacks. It is even more likely that they wear them as jewelry. They can see their obvious...
This is not going to be another of those articles on how to keep and stick to your New Year’s resolutions (and really, how many of us actually keep them anyway?). No, this article is going to help you get through the day-to-day things that need taking care of and give you the boost you need to plow through that lengthy list you wrote down a few weeks ago and just can’t...
Crystals and Gratitude
By Crystal Cosmopolitan
A few years ago I bought a notebook with a swirly rainbow-colored cover and decided that it would become my gratitude journal. Initially, I wrote just a few things here and there, but after buying the book Magic, by Rhonda Byrne, I started writing in my journal every night before going to bed. This book inspired...
Fluorite
By Crystal Cosmopolitan
Fluorite - purple, green, blue, yellow, multicolored—is one of my favorite crystals. Its colors are wonderful to look at, and I love holding it and feeling its energy flow through my hands. However, I have discovered that it “works” for me in some very particular ways. Even though it has helped me so many times, I still...
Red Jasper
By Debbie Elaine
The first time I held a crystal, I felt nothing. I didn’t see or sense anything at all. I thought the friend who’d given it to me was imagining things. But as I carried the piece of Red Jasper she’d given me in my pocket, I started to notice the way it looked and how it felt in my hand. One day I took it to a...

Crystals for Halloween
By Tara Mideaker
Many holidays celebrated today are products of Celtic/Pagan traditions. Perhaps none are as interesting as Halloween. While other customs of the Pagan culture have been adopted and adapted by various religions, Halloween is unique in that it is celebrated worldwide as a non-denominational holiday. So why...
Being very right-brained, my creativity is always trying to find different ways to manifest itself. I recently started wire wrapping crystals as a way to create both an outlet for my creativity, and an easy way to keep my crystals with me that does not involve carrying them around (I tend to forget they are in my pockets!). My problem with wrapping is that I've developed an...
Some call them medicine bags; others medicine pouches, charm bags, gri-gri, mojo bags or amulets. Whatever the name, these small (or not) pouches hold items the user finds symbolic in order to provide protection, prosperity, healing, love, etc.

Healing Crystals Founder and President Shawn Adler on Black Tourmaline
One of my favorite crystals is Black Tourmaline. I am very sensitive and often empathic to situations, people and/or my environment. Because of this, I often absorb energy that does not serve me, and holding a piece of Black Tourmaline always makes me feel better.

When people think of candles, one of the first thoughts that comes to mind is using them to set an atmosphere, not setting an energetic intention. Combining crystals and candles can enhance energy work, and increase the vibrations being sent forth. Candles work with the power of stones to manifest goals and bring intentions to fruition.
Before starting any work with candles or...
