Bestselling author and crystal expert Philip Permutt offers the essential guide on how to take advantage of the powerful properties of crystals and how to apply their healing energies. Crystals not only heal but also affect how we feel and influence our responses to the wider world. They can support us when we feel down and help to boost our natural abilities when we're doing well or need a helping hand. Crystals improve the quality of our lives. If simply by adding beauty, they make us feel better. Crystal Connections is a detailed, accessible and fully illustrated guide to harnessing the magic of crystals, written by one of the world's leading crystal healers. While there are many books on crystals, this one is directed at communicating and understanding the messages within them. Learn how to recognise and connect with the energy of your crystals, work with them in dowsing, divination and healing practices, how they relate to chakras, how to cleanse and look after them and much more. Also included is a full-colour crystal finder section featuring 101 of the most common crystals.
