Cherishing Crystals and Connection | A Heartfelt Gift from My Soul Sister

Recently, I was gifted a stunning wooden tray by a dear friend, whom I affectionately call my "Soul Sister." This not just any wooden tray it is a beautiful piece of art made by my sister and instantly became an essential part of my distance Reiki practice. It now holds the bulk of my beloved crystal collection, which plays a significant role in my Reiki practice. In this blog post, I want to share the magic of crystals, the significance of this beautiful tray, and how they both enhance my Reiki practice.
The Gift of Friendship
The tray was a deeply thoughtful gift from my dear friend, who I have known over many lifetimes but only recently came into this life- for that I'm deeply grateful. Our recent reconnection felt like a reunion of souls. This beautiful wooden tray symbolizes our sacred bond and the shared journey we have embarked on together.
The craftsmanship is exquisite, featuring Kaci's intricate painted designs that reflect nature's allure and beauty. It serves as a reminder of the importance of friendship and the healing power of connection.

The Role of Crystals in Reiki
Crystals have been used for centuries for their healing properties and energetic frequencies. In my distance Reiki practice, I incorporate various crystals to enhance energy flow and promote healing. Each crystal has its unique vibration and purpose, making them invaluable tools in my spiritual toolkit.
For instance, amethyst is known for its calming properties and can reduce stress levels by up to 70%. Meanwhile, rose quartz is often associated with love and compassion, making it essential for emotional healing. By placing these crystals on or around my Reiki doll, Zoya, I create a sacred healing space that amplifies the Divine Life Force Energies flowing through me allowing me to connect deeper with my clients in sessions.

The Perfect Home for My Crystal Collection
Before receiving the wooden tray, the bulk of my crystals hung out in an old flat, falling apart woven basket that I needed to get rid of because the energy connection to it had been severed about a year ago.
Now these radiant little energetic beings have a magnificent home that showcases and honors their beauty. The tray will become a focal point in my practice, reminding me of the importance of organization, intention and connection.
Creating a special area for the crystals I use in my healing practice (I also have many displayed as decor throughout my home) genuinely uplifts my spirit and helps me connect with them more deeply. Before each session, I often pause to meditate with them, setting my intentions and welcoming their energies to aid in the healing process.

The Energetic Frequencies of Crystals
Each crystal emits a unique frequency that influences our energy fields. When I work with these crystals during my Reiki sessions, I feel their vibrations resonating and joining with my own energy. This connection enhances the healing process, allowing me to channel energy deeply into all your bodies and more effectively.
For example, Clear Quartz, often referred to as the "master healer," can amplify energy by up to 25%. By placing it alongside other crystals, I create a harmonious environment that supports deep healing on multiple levels.
Selenite is another powerful crystal known for its high vibrational frequencies and its ability to promote healing and spiritual growth. This mineral, a form of gypsum, is often associated with clarity, purification, and the enhancement of spiritual awareness. You will see two selenite wands (available in my shop) on both sides of Zoya- this is how I create a dynamic energy ball of Reiki healing.
Creating a Sacred Space
This new tray has also transformed my Zen Den by adding a divine touch to the sacred space. It's important to remember that the environment in which we work plays a crucial role in the effectiveness of our healing practices. By having my crystals in full view on the tray, I intuitively choose the right ones for each client and set intentions for each session, inviting positive energy and added healing vibrations into my space.
I also light candles, burn sage other smudging tools, and use healing music/frequencies to cleanse the area before beginning a session. The combination of the beautiful tray, the crystals, and the cleansing rituals creates an atmosphere of peace and tranquility. This setting allows me to relax and open up fully to the process.
The Importance of Intention
In Reiki, intention is everything. The energy we send out is influenced by our thoughts and feelings. After choosing the appropriate crystals for my client's needs, I then set clear intentions for each session. This practice not only enhances the effectiveness of my work but also deepens my connection to my clients.
Before each session, I hold each crystal in my hand, feeling its energy, talking to it and setting my intentions for how I want to use it during in session. I often create and speak affirmations aligned with crystals and chakras to aid my client offering the highest aligned healing experience.
The Journey of Self-Discovery
As I continue to work with crystals, I find myself on a journey of self-discovery and growth. Each session reveals new insights and healing opportunities, both for myself and my clients.
Through this journey, I have learned to trust my intuition and embrace the healing powers of crystals. They have become not just tools for my practice but also companions on my own path to deeper self-awareness, growth and enlightenment.
Embracing the Healing Powers of Crystals
The healing powers of crystals are vast and varied. They help us release negative energy, promote emotional healing, enhance our spiritual growth and much more. By incorporating them into my Reiki practice, I have witnessed profound transformations in both myself and my clients. I have found that over 90% of my clients report feeling more balanced and centered after sessions involving crystals.
I encourage anyone interested in exploring the world of crystals to start small. Choose a few that resonate with you and begin to learn about their properties. As you work with them, pay attention to how they make you feel and how they influence your energy.
A Lasting Impact
The beautiful tray gifted to me by my dear Soul Sister friend has become an integral part of my distance Reiki practice. It holds my beloved crystal collection, which enhances my healing work and serves as a reminder of the power of friendship and connection.
As I continue to explore the healing powers of crystals, I am grateful for the journey they have taken me on. I invite you to embrace the magic of crystals in your own life, whether through Reiki or simply as a source of inspiration and healing. I do recommend heading over to my shop and checking out the Selenite Wands | they are perfect to add to your collection or to begin with.
Remember, the journey of self-discovery is ongoing, and the healing powers of crystals can guide you along the way. Embrace the beauty of your unique path, and let the energies of these magnificent stones support you in your quest for healing and wholeness.
We Heal & Thrive Together!
In Sacred Service,
Heather G.
