Cleaning And Activating Your Crystals
One of the first things you should do when you bring a new crystal or piece of jewelry home is clean it. I don’t mean use soap and water or hydrogen peroxide. What I am referring to is cleansing any lingering energy that the crystal has picked up and is holding on to. This could be from the ground it came from or from anyone handling it until it reached you. You want to start off with a neutral stone so that you can get maximum benefits from it.
One of my favorite ways to clean the crystals I have is to use a piece of selenite. This is a great absorption stone and all you do is place your stone on the selenite for a minimum of 6 hours. Here are a few more ways to clear your crystals:
- Place your stones or jewelry outside in the sun or under a full moon for a minimum of 4 hours
- Place your pieces on the soil outside or on a houseplant for at least 24 hours
- Use a smudge stick (dried sage leaves) or Paulo Santo stick and hold your pieces over the burning smoke to cleanse them
- Lay your pieces over a piece of clear quartz for a minimum of 6 hour
Once you have cleansed your stones, you can then activate them. This is really quite a simple process. Decide what your intention is going to be when using the chosen piece of crystal or jewelry. Find a quiet place to sit and hold the piece in both hands. While breathing in the highest white light, visualize or think of the intention you have decided on. Do this for a few minutes. Once you have finished, your stones are ready to use!
Depending on how often and what you are using/wearing your stones for, the frequency of cleaning your stones will vary. Pay attention to how your crystals are feeling to you and when they start to feel heavy or muddy, that is when it is time to clean them. If you are using the piece on a daily basis, then look at a time frame from 10 – 21 days.
There are many ways to clean and activate your crystals. If you have a favorite way, please feel free to share in the comments below!
Feel Good Now
One of life’s challenges is to be aware of our thoughts and emotions and see how they contribute to what we are creating in this world.
If we are thinking negatively and feeling bad, then this energy/vibration is what we are putting out to the universe. In turn, the universe will use this vibrational energy to help create our reality. The universe is always matching our reality to our vibration. Like attracts like, we must remember this. What we put out to the universe, we get back. So, if you are constantly living in a stressful, negative state and things don’t go your way…then look at what you are thinking and feeling to create this reality of yours.
You can change your reality at any time. Within moments, shifting can take place and you can start creating a reality that works for you. It starts with something so simple.
Feel Good Now.
Stop what you are doing and check in with your feelings. Are you mad, sad, frustrated, irritated, stressed, dissapointed, neutral, depressed, etc…etc. Change it!
How can we change it when we are in a moment of complete frustration? We must choose to shift our energy to something better than the state we are in. What makes you laugh? What makes you happy? Find things that make you feel better than the state you are in now and keep going until you have shifted your energy into a higher vibrational state! Here is a picture of my cats. This is one of the pictures I look at when I want to Feel Good Now.
I love this picture! I have hundreds of pictures of my cats and dogs that I can look at when I am wanting to shift my energy. I have certain music that I put on when I want to raise my vibrational level. I can sit outside and look at the nature that surrounds my house. I can dance. I can sing. There are so many things to choose from. Get creative!
In order to bring what we want into our lives, we must be at a vibrational match or higher with those things. If we want peace, love, and joy in our lives and in our relationships, then we must create peace, love and joy within ourselves!
The first step to this is to Feel Good Now.
I posted this quote from Abraham Hicks on my Facebook Page and I will post it here for you to read as well.
Whenever you are feeling less than good, if you will stop and say, Nothing is more important than that I feel good—I want to find a reason now to feel good, you will find an improved thought.
Anytime you feel negative emotion, you are in the mode of resisting something that you want, and that resistance takes its toll on you. It takes its toll on your physical body, and it takes its toll on the amount of wonderful things that you are allowing to come into your experience. -Abraham
When I read that quote this morning, it came to me at the perfect time. I wasn’t in a vibration of feeling good this morning. I woke up tired and a little frustrated. I gave the universe a “thumbs up” and a thank you for the wink once I saw that post! I want to make sure that I am in alignment with feeling good now as often as I can be! I want to be open to all the possibilities that the universe has to offer me! I can do the simple task of checking in with myself and make sure that I Feel Good Now!

My New Owl Tattoo
One of my favorite places to visit is Maui. Not only is it a beautiful island, it has great spiritual and healing energy there. I just love it there!
On this most recent trip I decided to get a new tattoo while I was down there, IF I found the right shop/person to do it. And I did!
When it comes to tattoos, there are many opinions out there about them. Some people love them, some people hate them. For me, tattoos are something I personally enjoy, especially when they are full of meaning and are symbolic to the person wearing the art. I love to hear stories of what someone’s tattoo means to them.
The owl is a very symbolic bird for me. I see them very often and in many different places. Around my home I hear them quite often. I’ve seen them on my travels throughout Canada as well is the towns close to where I live. They show up for me the most when I am contemplating changes in my life, and I really feel like they guide me through these changes. I know that when I see them, I am moving in the right direction. They are also a symbol of protection for me. I call on their energy when I need it. They are beautiful birds and I just love them!
I decided to get an owl tattoo and just had to find the right artist to do the work! One thing I strongly believe in is when looking for the right tattoo artist, it is very much just like looking for your energy healer. It’s important to find someone that you energetically jive with, or are drawn to. Why, you ask? What I believe is that when you having symbolic work imprinted physically onto your body, it will also have an energetic imprint on you. There is energy being infused into the tattoo which can come from you, the symbolism from the tattoo, as well as from the artist themselves. When I go looking for someone to get a tattoo from (I have had 3) I have always picked the artist because of what I am feeling from them energetically. I look at their portfolio as a secondary.
I found someone at Zen Tattoo and Art Gallery in Kihei, Maui. His name is Kevin Reinert and he is a fantastic tattooist/artist. He has great energy, listens to what you want to have done, has lots of experience, 15 years (for those that look for that), and has exceptional artistic ability. If you are ever in Maui and want a tattoo…then I would definitely recommend him! I will be searching him out for my next one!
I’ve listed my owl tattoo as well as a few pictures from his portfolio!! Enjoy!

Want To Have More Energy and Vitality in 2014?

These circumstances could be because you aren’t protecting your aura (or energy body) properly. This is something that many of us are not aware of and is equally important in creating energy and vitality as eating well and sleeping properly are.
