“Hippie?” One of the few things that can really capture my optical organs is that piece of beryl on my chest. The physical qualities of this stone make it a standout among others of its kind. There’s something about its transparent but slightly dark appearance that makes me think there’s more to it than meets the eye. I get disarmed whenever it refracts light and gives out that shimmer, especially when held directly to the sun. This beryl and a few other stones from my boho vault are my go-to company when green parks, mountains, and beaches aren’t within my reach. The little kid in me usually ascribes magical powers to them but the adult, he treats them as a seedbed of optimism; symbols for my favorite places (respectively); and a reminder of what the mind and body can do beyond that “limited walls”. When I was doing my physio in 2019, Tiger’s Eye and Obsidian bracelets got me company. Thanks to my sister who gifted them to me post-op. I got back into harnessing the “rocking interest” since then. Prior to that, I actually had a few quartz but all ended up in the trash bin, after some time, because they’re brittle and soft. I was so ecstatic when I got my first 7th grade mineral (druzy agate) in 2009. It’s the pioneer of the now collection but that light green beryl in the photo is the favorite. I received a lot of skeptical reactions about this interest from people I know back then and now, of course, but pushed on with it interest anyway. The next thing I knew, it’s been decades and I still feel grounded, focused, and calmed with these things around me. Well, it’s always better to believe in something than nothing at all... #crystalsrock #green #saudinationalday #healingcrystals #crystalstherapy #gemstone #healing #crystal #healingstones #meditation #platinumnecklace #emerald #redcorral #sapphire #aquamarine #topaz #quartz #agate #moonstone #abaloneshell #minerals #gems #crystalenergy #spiritual #reiki #jewelry #gemstone #chakra #metaphysical #energyhealing #spirituality https://www.instagram.com/p/CUKY_-CqfsK/?utm_medium=tumblr
