DDW Helps You Delve Into The Powerful World of Stones
No matter where in the world you are, chances are you are spending more of your time (or all of it) at home. This new reality makes us revisit all the things we have been putting off, whether it be home decorating, gaining a new skill, or simply taking time for yourself (check our DDW’s Instagram for our member meditation sessions).
When we look back on this time, the energy we put into improving ourselves and our homes will probably be seen as a huge blessing, a chance to just slow down and refocus. With this in mind, join us in exploring how to harness the natural power of crystals to re-centre and refresh:
Firstly we need to make clear that there is no concrete evidence that stones hold any medicinal properties in themselves. However, crystals have been famously espoused by celebrities all over the world including Megan Fox, Kim Kardashian West, Gisele Bündchen and Bella Hadid as essential companions to healing meditation and breathing exercises.
Combining crystals with intent and reflection has purportedly shown to elevate mood and channel inner positive energy. If this is true, our current global pandemic could not be a better time to try this. Not only do the stones look great around the house, but they can also serve to be beautiful items to wear and enjoy.
