When I started working on creating this blog post on my website, I knew it would be a fairly good sized article. However, once I started working on it the information and ideas just kept flowing! My original goal was to post the article on both my Crystal Guidance website and here on my blog. However, it became too big for me to put all of it here. With that said, here is a small portion of the "New to Crystals and Not Sure Where to Start?" article. You can read the entire article, which includes many helpful links and 2 videos, on my website at...

When you are new to crystal
healing and the world of crystals it can be overwhelming. One of the
biggest things I notice is people are wanting to make sure they are
doing things the "right" way. I'll admit, I can be one of those people
too. Here is the first rule for crystals and crystal healing...
The way that works best for you is the right way!
If something feels right to you
and it is working for you, don't change it just because someone comes
along and says that you're doing it wrong or they have a better way.
This includes authors too. Always trust your intuition! It will let you know what is right for you.
How do I choose the right crystals for me?
Truly the best
way for you to choose the right crystal for you is by listening to your
own intuition. You will be drawn to the crystals that resonate with you
and that you need in your life. Go to a crystal shop and see what
catches your eye. If you don't have a local shop then even browse
through a website (like my Etsy shop)
and see what jumps out at you. Listen to your body. Feel for those
subtle changes. Does the crystal give you a good kind of goose bumps?
Does it makes you feel happy, loved, or something else. Do you feel a
buzzing energy? If I am choosing a crystal in person I hold it in my
hand. For me the left hand works better, but I recommend you see which
hand you feel energy from more. I place the crystal in the palm of my
hand and can feel its subtle vibration. Some I don't feel anything and
some have quite a vibration! I pick the one that i can feel the
strongest as I take that as a sign that the crystal is talking to me.
Sometimes you pick up a crystal and simply can't put it back down.
Perhaps you look at a crystal and just know that it's the one. Trust in
what you feel and trust that you are being guided to the perfect
crystals for you at this time. I say "at this time" because we all
change and what we need changes with us. So you might need Amethyst
around you right now but a few months down the road Moonstone might be
calling your name.
You can also
look up information on crystals to see which one(s) fit your needs. For
example, you might be having trouble sleeping, so you look up which
crystals can help you with insomnia so you can get a good night's sleep.
This is a way to help you find what you need. However, again you need
to use your intuition to see which crystal is right for you. In my crystal tips
I always offer multiple crystal recommendations so that you can choose
the one that you feel resonates best with your energy. Remember,
crystals will not work the same for everyone, so it is all about finding
the one that works best for you.
