Unnecessary Anxiety

Posted on by Chaya, The Wisdomkeeper

There is a hurricane coming! Meteorologist is in high gear on TV, and they are soooo excited! People all around are at the stores buying up all the water and supplies. Well, I can really freak out or not.  First of all, they have no clue what direction it is going. I am watching all the people panic. Many Floridians already know this. Some still panic.

I check to see if I had batteries and all the things you need for the go-bag. I got food. I filled the water bottles. Which I have not developed the list yet. It is Thursday, It is not coming until Monday and that is if it hits here. Well ran out of batteries, ordered from Amazon, here by tomorrow. The task is done.

Worry makes us old! There are so many times we waste so much time with unnecessary anxiety. Don’t get me wrong, I lived through 2 horrifying experiences in 2004 with 10 each without electric. Not to mention the level 5 coming at us 5 years ago that didn’t hit our area that bad. I don’t want to go through this again. Yes, I am nervous. But we have time. I have the stuff in the house.

It is not hitting to Sunday, Monday or maybe Tuesday. So how many days are we going to put our body into turmoil? We do this to ourselves, not just through hurricanes. Anxiety is so harmful to us. We don’t need a pill. We can do this!  It is important at this time to stop and pause, pace yourself, take a few deep breaths. Make your list. You just might be surprised that you already have most of the items and your go-to bag is full. If the hurricane doesn’t even come your way. You put yourself through an unnecessary unliving hell for nothing. Now Breathe!

Crystals are my friends

Posted on by Chaya, The Wisdomkeeper

When friends let me down. Yes, they are human.  I turn to my crystals. They are wiser and present a deeper meaning to what I really need to know.  Lapis Lazuli is a stone for wisdom. I made this for myself for the very purpose to bring forth insights!

I view a crystal as a transmitter to the sacred space within each and every one of us. This is where energy overflows and it is one of our keys or our tools for transforming ourself. Many sages believe that crystals have the highest form of knowledge, and they can show us what we need in the past, present, and future.  They speak to us.

When we wear jewelry we infuse their healing qualities.  They are from the earth. They all have a chemical make up.  If our body needs that chemical in our body it will take from the stone.  Like shells have calcium. It will take what it needs.  Lapis has a long chemical make up …so I simply use charts. When looking for insight, you are not going for physical healing, however,  it will do the healing anyway.

When I design jewelry, I also pray and chant as I design it. I love working with mostly natural stones. I love the feel of it.  Plastic just doesn’t do that for you.  I may use it for design and space. In this piece, the copper also has properties along with Swarovski crystals.

People of the east have been using crystals to help us live harmoniously for thousands of years.  The west took hold of it in the 80s and adapted it to our holistic way of living.  I will be bringing forth other healing stones and designs as we go along.  Have a wonderful day for yourself and find a stone that suits you and sees what it has to say!

Just Breathe!

Posted on by Chaya, The Wisdomkeeper

I took a few deep breaths. Put on some nice, calming music and picked up this tablet. Within a few minutes, I have a calming heart, a smile on my face and ready to go forward. This works! When the sorrow shows up and it will. Keep rebooting yourself. Because I know both you and myself are important. Right now, I have to take care of me. I have work yet to do! I will have a better day! How about you?

This is just a tough day. Since I lost one child already, I thought I’d be ok by now after losing the second. I’m determined not to cave in. I recognize ill have some rough days. But this is a little worst. Maybe because now both my children are in heaven. Empty feeling. Trying to avoid meds.
