Crystals for Beginners: The Guide to Get Started with the Healing Power of Crystals

I have taken this book out of the library so much, that I knew I had to own it. This book is just informative and straightforward. The author comes across as a warm, friendly, super knowledgeable friend sharing what she knows with you. There is no "buy this very expensive one you must!" yada yada yada. Instead, there is look around and find out. Figure out what works for you and go from there. Plus, you'll learn a lot. Do you know what entrainment is? I did not, until I read it here. (Mood contagion, basically). I was not aware that crystals could be grouped by lattice pattern. Orthorhombic is a diamond-shaped pattern, for instance. The concept of piezoelectricity is fascinating. Tetrahedron aka pyramid shape - there's one for trivia night. This book is packed with information and insight. The 'One Stone - Many Names' section will save you money, as will the sections on which crystals will dissolve in water or bleach in the sun. (I haaate going to stores and seeing amethyst and rose quartz in direct sunlight, while their price tag endures unchanged). Being a book nerd with an extensive library, I would say buy a kindle and paper copy of this book with the money that you save, but that's just me. Anyway, to sum it up, this is an ideal beginner's book. It reads very much like my favorite cookbooks where it is both a pleasure to read and a trusted resource.

Simply love this book. Easy read.

It is a book about crystals. Interesting, informative , overall a good textbook has pictures to help with identification. It is a basic guide.

Informative book about crystals, you can never have enough. Have referenced it often.

I highly recommend this book. If you're into crystals, then this is the book for you. It's filled with tons of helpful information and guides. I wholeheartedly recommend this book, especially if you love crystals! 💎 It's packed with a treasure chest of insightful information. 📚 🎁 While numerous guides are out there, this one truly shines as one of the best! ⭐ If you're considering getting it, it is an excellent read for anyone interested in crystals, their qualities, and healing properties Some of the information presented in this book is inaccurate. I have experience with some crystals, but I didn't have a positive first experience, and I wanted to know about ones especially for my zodiac sign. However, it doesn't take away from its overall value and helpfulness. You can still trust this book and feel confident in its guidance.

This is exactly what I needed to know. The basics, definitions and distinctions about healing stones and those alike. It’s a new world of healing energy that I didn’t know existed. Beautiful pictures and tons of information.

This is the perfect book for beginners to learn about gemstones/crystals. I'm enjoying each chapter that showcases a particular gemstone including info on its origins and uses in my home. They have a great chapter that tells you which 10 gemstones are the most powerful to help you in your day-to-day life. So glad I purchased this book!

Great book, a must have for anyone just beginning or curious about crystals. It's a great reference to continue to use.

Easy to learn and practical book.

I wasn't expecting much, to be honest, but this book truly surprised me. I'm usually not easily impressed, not by books or by the healing powers of crystals and such. Well. The book takes a more scientific approach in the beginning. It explains in a clear way (with beautiful images) everything a beginner needs to know about crystals, the main ones, and an overview of many others. Not only do I love the book, and it has hooked me like no other recently, but I can't wait to use my crystals in a more conscious way. Not expecting miracles, I'm still the usual skeptic after all, but with knowledge. And that is good enough for me. I'm thinking about buying a more complete book by the same author. I highly recommend it to everyone who doesn't know much about crystals.

A lovely, informative little book on excellent condition. Would highly recommend this seller.

this was a gift so I don't filly know but my friend loved it!

Lo máximo y a excelente precio.
