A guest post by Love & Light student Sarah Balmer of Sarah Belle. For starters, our thoughts – yours and mine – add to the collective consciousness, the one mind.

On the other hand, some are still rejecting these things, safely marching to the beat of the old paradigm. With more and more souls waking up, it is ushering in an era of new, but old, holistic tools and modalities of healing. They have been there all along, lying dormant. But they are d

Confidence seems to be something we all struggle with at one time or another in our lives. Whether it’s a fear of public speaking, body image issues, relationship insecurities, or something else, a little confidence boost can certainly go a long way toward improving our lives.   Using healing crystals for self-confidence is a simple but effective way to help you shift your mindset.

Citrine is an intensely confidence-boosting crystal. These stones are also known for their ability to instill an abundance of confidence. Especially to the area in your life
