You are a remarkable being of energy, individual and unique in your own right. You have both the power and ability to create your happiness no matter what challenges you face in life.
Quick vibe fixes offer a wonderful system for approaching the struggles we face and creating a shift into the positive. You’ll find which vibration-raising methods work best for different challenges and which ones work best for you.
Healing is a process and can take time, just as it would if you were to receive treatment from a physical therapist, a doctor or another health practitioner, and that it’s by creating a regular practice that you will receive the most benefit. Feel free to make any adjustments you need.
Quick Vibe Fixes:

Relationships

- Big Hugs! A Physical embrace creates a neurologist response within the body aligning your energy with your loved one for a feeling of connection and understanding.
Helping Loved Ones
- Slip a crystal under the pillow of your loved one to give them the gift of crystal energy while they sleep. Rose quartz can be a wonderful choice to keep the love flowing.
- Add a crystal pendant to your pets’ collar or in their habitat case so they too may enjoy the crystal energy vibration. Rose quartz, Amethyst, and clear quartz are wonderful choices.
Healing from Depression
- Keep a Clear Quartz master healer under your pillow each night to release you of negative emotions and heal.
- When you feel yourself slipping into depressive thought patterns, smudge yourself with Sandalwood or Yerba Santa to release them and restore your sense of peace.
Remember that healing is a process and can take time, and that it’s by creating a regular practice that you will receive the most benefit.
