Choosing a Crystal
Choose the crystal, stone, which has the properties to help you. Spending time with your crystals thanks to meditation, intention setting rituals or any other ceremony is the perfect way for you to create and maintain a meaningful and powerful connection with your crystals.
- For Energy: Carry the stones with you, either in a little pouch or around your neck. Make sure to ensure you do not carry it with loose change, as it will absorb all of the energies from the money either positive or negative.
- For Meditation: If in a meditation group, set the crystal in the center of the group for collective consciousness. If you are by yourself you can either hold it in your hand or set it in front of you.
- For Healing: In a full-scale crystal working, ask the stone for it’s energies and utilize them. In healing, place the crystal on the part of the body where you need it. You can hold the stone in your receptive hand to absorb the healing energies. At the end of the process, the stone is probably
How to Care for your crystals?
Cleansing and charging your crystals is a very important task for any crystal owner, and should be done as soon as you bring your beautiful new crystal home.
Cleansing

Charging

Programming
Set up a very specific intention for your crystal to hold, this would be an energy or a goal you wish to manifest.

Day 2 ~ Alignment Activity 1 – Selecting a crystal
In this section you have learned about the various ways you can select crystals to use in your Crystal as well as a how to care for them. Based on the areas in your body and life that you highlighted as a priority in the previous activity (day one workbook) select one or some crystals that you can use to address those areas. You may find the following questions helpful.
- Based on your responses from the previous activity, select the top priority that you would like to focus on.
- With that in mind, decide whether you will research the properties of crystals related to your intention or use your intuition to guide you in selecting the crystal(s) you will use. Which did you choose?
Attuning to a crystal
Attuning is just a fancy word for “connecting”. Life is full of connections; it’s built on connections – to yourself, our loved ones, the earth, our spirit, the elements. All of these connections are integral to us; they shape us and help us grow.
The most important thing you can do is to build a connection to the crystal you have chosen to work with. It’s a give-and-take relationship – the more you put in, the more benefits you receive. You forged this connection when you first held it. If you don’t work with a crystal much, forget to cleanse and refresh it, its energy dulls down and it goes into a restful state. This living thing will respond well to attention in the form of love, so send it love. Send it sunshine and happy”
Day 2 ~ Alignment Activity 2 – Connect with your crystal
Select a crystal you feel drawn to, you can also ask your crystals which one to choose – you will feel one wanting to be chosen.
֍ Take time to sit or lie down in a space where you feel comfortable with no distractions. The steps you take to be calm are as important as the process of connecting – the moments spent focusing your thoughts or the pauses between deep breaths.
֍ Create stillness in your core, breathe and hold the crystal in your left hand.
֍ Bring the crystal to your heart with intention to connect with it on a deep level.
֍ See a beautiful cord of golden light reaching out from your heart and connecting with the crystal you are holding. It goes through and into the core of the crystal and lights it up from the inside.
֍ In that moment you have forged a deep connection. Of course, the intention to connect is enough, but all of these visuals and energetic cords help to strengthen the connection and build on it.
֍ Thank your crystal for stepping up to help you and hold it with a grateful heart.
֍ Open your heart to receive and write down any feelings that come to you during or after doing this exercise to help you understand what healing work you could be doing on yourself.
