In crystal healing, people often say that the crystal chooses you, rather than the other way around. It’s kind of like how the wand chooses the wizard in Harry Potter (it’s a thing, OK?)

Anyway, if Amazonite has found its way into your life, it's a sign that you're in need of the truth, even if it hurts. And with Amazonite by your side, you CAN handle the truth.  It is first and foremost a stone of loving communication and its crystal healing properties remind us that it's time for our voices to be heard. 

Above and beyond its power in communications, Amazonite is awesome for lessening stress and self-defeating behaviours by calming and building self-esteem, and for healing emotional disturbances and the aftereffects of psychological trauma.

Amazonite is also well noted for having physical healing powers, decreasing heart problems, benefitting the muscles, aiding with pregnancy, calcium deficiency, eczema, and muscle cramps, supporting the nervous system and lessening tooth decay and osteoporosis. 

You know the old saying – An Amazonite a day keeps the doctor away.

Smokey Quartz

When darkness strikes, protective Smokey Quartz can soak up that negativity like a super absorbent Chux Super Wipe before it takes root in your psyche.  If you regularly struggle with depression, anxiety or jealousy, wearing a piece of Smokey Quartz can be a powerful way to stop those toxic energies from overwhelming you.

Combining the attributes of both transparent stones and black stones, Smokey Quartz links us to the highest realms of being and amplifies the truth of everything around it. If Smokey Quartz has found its way into your life, it could be a sign that it's time to open your heart and let in the light and positivity. The truth can set you free and Smoky Quartz is your annoying GPS lady leading the way.

Because of its killer cleansing and detoxing effects, this master healer is often used to amplify the energy of any stones surrounding it, which creates a synergy of soothing vibes, the spiritual Band-Aid to your painful emotional wounds. Looking for a quick midday pick-me-up?  Hold a Smokey Quartz crystal in each hand and feel the calming waves of its healing and balancing properties infusing your mind and body with its powerful spiritual nutrition.  Who needs a kale smoothie when you’ve got Smokey Quartz?

Cheaper than therapy and a sustainable alternative to antidepressants*, Smokey Quartz is a grounding stone known for its ability to help you move on from painful memories. When you meditate with this stone, it guides you to a higher state of being, a place where you can let go of the past leaving you better, not bitter.
