Making Space - Crystals For Letting Go & Deep Rest

Shifting Perspectives

This time of year we focus a lot of goal setting because its the beginning of a new year. Nature shows us something a little different. If we look at nature we see a time of rest, inward reflection and release. We tend to be a culture that dives in head first before creating the space and capacity to move into the next phase. We move so fast and miss steps along the way.

The intention of this post is to invite you to pause, breathe and be present. So much unfolds in a years time and now Is a time to align with nature and follow the wisdom of mother earth. If we deepen our awareness we can feel a sense of spaciousness when we rest and release. Thats what we are exploring today.

The Energy of Letting Go

Letting go isn’t about forcing yourself to release something before you’re ready; it’s about allowing space for what no longer serves you to gently fall away. Often, we carry emotional, mental, and even energetic clutter such as old worries, expectations, habits, or attachments. This “clutter” quietly drains our energy without us realizing it. When we cultivate deeper self awareness we notice what we’re holding onto then we can approach release with kindness rather than pressure. Crystals can be supportive allies in this process, not as quick fixes, but as gentle reminders to stay present, grounded, and open to change.

The question becomes...

What am I still carrying that no longer needs my energy?
