How to Connect with a New Crystal

So, you just brought home a new crystal — and you want to get to know it, you want to know how to connect with it.

What’s the best way of going about doing that?

Here’s a step-by-step guide to start off your crystal relationship right!

When I bring home a new crystal I usually like to retune it (what many call “cleanse”) just to make sure it’s not bringing any extra baggage along with it. Know what I mean?

You can read more about how I like to do that here.

Then, the next thing I do is a crystal meditation with the specimen. I take at least 5-15 minutes to sit quietly with that crystal and see what kind of insights or messages I get from it — so I’ll know how that crystal will work best personally with me.

This is how I feel I get to know my crystals best. Once I have that info, then I determine if I want to take it deeper and really forge a close bond with this crystal. (I end up doing that with only about 6-10 crystals in my entire collection at … Read More

Who Do You Think You Are to Be a Crystal “Healer”?

Who do you think you are to be a Crystal Healer?

Does any of this sound familiar?

When it comes to working with crystal energy… does your inner voice sound a little somethin’ like this?

  • “What will my family, friends, co-workers think of me?” 
  • “What if I’m just not that “gifted” with crystals or I’m not as effective as I *think* I am?” 
  • “Who do I think I am to be crystal “healer” or crystal energy worker — or have ANYTHING to do with crystals in a metaphysical way?”
  • Or maybe you feel like you’re not “legit” or not good enough YET — or maybe it’s just all in your imagination.
  • .. that others may find out that you’re just a big fat fraud and you’ll just end up making a fool of yourself!

I KNOW this is harsh stuff… but I’m just sharing what went through my mind in the beginning —

and I’ve since learned that this is very common self-sabotage chatter that we have a tendency to torture ourselves with.

I know (from experience) there may be an annoying voice in your head that tells you you’re not good … Read More

Do you Have What it Takes to be a Crystal Practitioner?

So, you’ve heard about working with crystal energy or thought of what it would be like to be a go-to crystal expert or maybe a crystal practitioner. But before diving in too deeply, some worry if they have what it takes.

Do you have what it takes to be a crystal practitioner

I mean this world of being a crystal practitioner… it’s not meant for everyone.

Or is it?

Does it mean you’ve gotta have some sort of innate special talent? I don’t feel that’s the case.

Some of you are letting your potential go to waste because you don’t feel confident with your crystal “abilities” or ready enough.

Now, even though I’m the founder/teacher here at HMCA, I’ve seen SO many come through our doors with more natural talent in their little pinky than I have in my whole body!!! But they NEVER would have realized it if they hadn’t stepped through the portal and been given two things:

  1. the permission they felt they needed
  2. some well-deserved confidence

Imagine what we all would have been missing out on if they hadn’t taken the all-important first steps.

Fakes, Fakes + More Crystal Fakes

More Crystal Fakes!

I’m so grateful to my Certified Crystal Practitioner students who bring this stuff to my attention. (That’s usually how I keep my finger on the pulse of this crystal fakes stuff.)

Sometimes I see some questionable things at a gem show… but these days, it’s usually a student pointing out something suspicious in our private community.

One thing that’s evident is that, unfortunately, the artificial mineral/gemstone market is on the rise.

Several years ago I noted that there seemed to be a bit of an info-gap in our crystal community on some good, solid, easy-to-understand data regarding this sort of thing.

Informing our community on this topic has become yet another passion of mine. Being a former science department head, having studied geology at the Masters’s level + being a crystal author and the founder of a Crystal Practitioner Academy with a relatively large following gives me a good reason + platform to educate about crystal fakes. Right?

So, I feel it’s my duty — and I’m honored to be given the opportunity and privilege to serve in this way.

My goal is to educate our crystal community on … Read More
