Navigating the Menopause: A Spiritual Perspective

Menopause is a profound and transformative phase in a woman’s life. Beyond the physical changes and hormonal shifts, it’s an opportunity for spiritual growth and self-discovery. In this blog, we’ll explore menopause from a spiritual standpoint, shedding light on how this transition can be embraced and empowered with mindfulness, self-compassion, and holistic well-being (all the things we do best here at Quest).

  1. Embrace the Divine Feminine: Menopause signifies a shift from the fertile, child-bearing years to a new phase of life. It’s a time to embrace and honor the divine feminine energy within. This transition can be viewed as a spiritual initiation, where wisdom and intuition become your guiding lights. Practices like meditation, journaling, and connecting with your inner self can help you tap into this sacred feminine energy.
  2. Embracing Change: Change is the only constant in life, and menopause is no exception. Embracing this change with grace and acceptance is a spiritual practice in itself. Recognise that it’s an opportunity to shed what no longer serves you, just as trees shed their leaves in autumn. Let go of preconceived notions about aging and embrace the wisdom that comes with it.
  3. Mindful Awareness: Mindfulness is a powerful tool during menopause. It helps you stay present and attuned to your body and emotions. As you navigate through hormonal fluctuations, mindfulness can ease symptoms like mood swings and hot flushes. Incorporate mindfulness practices into your daily routine, such as deep breathing exercises, yoga, or walking meditation.
  4. Connecting with Your Body: Your body is the temple of your spirit. Menopause is an invitation to nurture it more than ever. Explore holistic health practices like herbal remedies, acupuncture, aromatherapy and Reiki to support your physical and emotional well-being. Listen to your body’s cues and provide it with the care and nourishment it deserves. You can find your local Reiki practitioners here.
  5. Rituals and Ceremonies: Creating rituals or ceremonies around menopause can be a beautiful way to mark this transition spiritually. Lighting a candle, performing a self-blessing, or holding a sacred ceremony with friends and family can help you honour this significant milestone. It’s a way to acknowledge the wisdom and strength you’ve gained throughout your life journey.
  6. Self-Compassion: Menopause can be challenging, in every sense. Self-compassion is a key spiritual practice during this time. Treat yourself with the same kindness and understanding you’d offer family or friends going through a similar experience. Be patient with yourself, and know that it’s okay to seek support if you need to.
  7. Exploring Inner Wisdom: Menopause often brings introspection and a deeper connection to your inner self. Take this time to explore your inner wisdom and intuition. Journaling, meditation, and dream analysis can help you tap into the profound insights that emerge during this phase.
  8. Healing from Within: Many women find that menopause brings up unresolved emotional issues from the past. It’s an opportunity for healing and releasing emotional baggage. Seek support from a therapist or counsellor if needed, and consider energy healing practices like Reiki or chakra balancing to release stagnant energy and promote emotional well-being. You might even like to consider Reiki 1 training, as it’s all about self-healing.
  9. Embracing New Passions: As you enter this new phase of life, you may discover new passions and interests. Embrace them wholeheartedly. Whether it’s art, travel, volunteering, or learning a new skill, these pursuits can infuse your life with purpose and joy.
  10. Building a Supportive Community: Finally, surround yourself with a supportive community of like-minded individuals. Join women’s circles, spiritual groups, or online communities where you can share your experiences, learn from others, and offer your wisdom to those who are also on this transformative journey.

Menopause is a spiritual awakening, a journey of self-discovery, and an opportunity to connect with your inner wisdom and divine feminine energy. Embrace it with open arms, knowing that this phase of life is filled with growth, healing, and empowerment. As you navigate the menopausal journey, remember to nurture your body, mind, and spirit, and seek support and guidance from your spiritual community and holistic practices. In doing so, you’ll find that menopause can be a deeply spiritual and fulfilling experience.

Pendulums

What is a pendulum?

A pendulum is a simple yet powerful tool used in divination, energy healing, and spiritual practices. It consists of a weighted object, often a crystal or metal, attached to a string or chain. When held or suspended, the pendulum swings back and forth or in circular motions, responding to subtle energy vibrations. It is believed to tap into the intuition and subconscious mind, providing answers, insights, and guidance. By asking specific questions, the pendulum’s movements can indicate yes or no responses, reveal hidden truths, and assist in decision-making processes. It serves as a bridge between the conscious and unconscious realms, aiding in spiritual exploration and self-discovery.

Here is our step-by-step guide on how to use a pendulum:

  • Choose a Pendulum: Select a pendulum that resonates with you. It can be made of crystal, metal, or any other material that you connect with energetically.
  • Cleanse and Energise: Before using your pendulum for the first time, cleanse it of any residual energies by placing it under running water or using other purification methods such as smudging or intention setting. Then, hold it in your hands and infuse it with your positive intentions and energy.
  • Set Up a Clear Space: Find a quiet and peaceful space where you can focus without distractions. It’s also helpful to clear the space energetically by burning incense, using essential oils, or any other method that resonates with you.
  • Establish a Clear Intent: State your intention for using the pendulum. It can be seeking guidance, receiving answers, or connecting with your intuition. Clarify that you want the pendulum to show you clear and accurate responses.
  • Hold the Pendulum: Hold the pendulum gently between your thumb and forefinger, allowing it to hang freely. Ensure that your hand is relaxed, and the pendulum has enough room to swing without obstruction.
  • Establish Yes/No Responses: Begin by asking the pendulum to show you its “yes” response. Observe the direction of its swing—clockwise, counterclockwise, back and forth, or side to side. Repeat the process to establish the “no” response. This will vary from person to person and pendulum to pendulum, so it’s crucial to establish your unique responses.
  • Ask Questions: With your intentions in mind, ask clear and specific questions. Allow the pendulum to swing or rotate, and observe its movements. Interpret the responses based on your predetermined “yes” and “no” signals. Practise different types of questions to gain confidence and accuracy.
  • Trust Your Intuition: Remember that the pendulum is a tool that amplifies your intuition. Trust your inner guidance and instincts when interpreting the pendulum’s responses. Practice regularly to enhance your connection and accuracy.
  • Cleanse and Store: After each use, cleanse your pendulum to remove any residual energies. You can use the same methods mentioned in point 2. Find a safe and respectful place to store your pendulum when not in use, ensuring it remains protected and charged.

What else can you use a pendulum for? 

Apart from divination and guidance, a pendulum can be used for various purposes. It can be utilised in energy healing practices, such as Reiki, to detect and balance energy imbalances within the body. They can also be used in dowsing to locate objects, water sources, or ley lines. They can assist in clearing spaces by detecting stagnant or negative energies. Pendulums can aid in chakra balancing and alignment, as well as in determining the energetic properties of crystals or objects. Additionally, they can be used as an alternative way of choosing an oracle or tarot card.  

Remember, when using a pendulum, the accuracy response relies on your focus, intention, and connection with your intuition. With practice and trust, the pendulum can become a valuable tool for seeking guidance, clarity, and self-discovery in your spiritual journey.

Healing Benefits of Copper: Harnessing the Power of a Timeless Metal

Today we are taking a look at copper and its healing properties. Copper is a versatile and timeless metal that has been revered for its healing properties for centuries. Known for its distinctive reddish-brown hue, copper is not only aesthetically pleasing but also offers a range of therapeutic benefits. In our blog this week, we will explore the healing potential of copper and its ability to promote physical well-being, relieve pain, and support overall health.

Copper has been used in healing for centuries by various cultures around the world. Here are a few of the reasons why:

  • Pain relief: Copper is often used as a natural remedy for pain management. It is believed that wearing copper jewellery or using copper-infused products can help alleviate pain associated with conditions such as arthritis, joint pain, and muscle soreness. The presence of copper close to the skin is thought to help reduce inflammation and improve blood circulation, thus providing relief.
  • Anti-inflammatory effects: Copper is believed to possess anti-inflammatory properties. It is thought that copper ions released when in contact with the skin can help reduce inflammation and swelling. This makes copper a potential option for managing conditions like rheumatism and arthritis, where inflammation plays a significant role.
  • Energy balancing: In alternative healing practices such as Ayurveda and traditional Chinese medicine, copper is associated with balancing the body’s energy systems. It is believed that wearing or using copper objects can help restore energy flow and promote overall well-being. Copper is thought to interact with the body’s energy fields and facilitate a harmonious balance.
  • Antimicrobial properties: Copper has been known for its antimicrobial properties for centuries. It possesses the ability to kill or inhibit the growth of bacteria, viruses, and fungi. This makes copper useful in preventing infections and promoting wound healing. Copper-infused bandages or surfaces are increasingly being used in healthcare settings to reduce the risk of healthcare-associated infections.
  • Emotional well-being: Copper is associated with emotional healing and is believed to have a calming effect on the mind. Copper jewellery or objects are often worn or used in meditation practices to promote relaxation, reduce stress, and enhance emotional balance.

It is important to note that while these healing properties of copper have been observed anecdotally and in traditional practices, scientific research is still ongoing to validate these claims. Copper should not be seen as a substitute for professional medical advice or treatment. If you are considering using copper for healing purposes, it is advisable to consult with a healthcare professional or an experienced practitioner to understand its potential benefits and any associated risks.

In conclusion, copper offers a range of healing benefits that have been recognised and utilised for centuries. From reducing inflammation and promoting wound healing to supporting brain health and enhancing energy flow, copper’s therapeutic properties make it a valuable ally in promoting physical well-being and overall health. Whether worn as jewellery, or integrated into everyday products, copper allows individuals to harness the power of this remarkable metal and experience its healing potential.

Gua Sha Beauty

Gua Sha is an ancient Chinese practice for energy flow and blood circulation. According to traditional Chinese medicine, Chi is the energy that flows through the body and that for a more balanced well-being, your chi energy needs to flow freely. If your chi energy is stagnant it could be the cause for inflammation which can also lead to chronic pain. It is thought that rubbing the skin’s surface breaks up this energy and allows it to flow freely which reduces inflammation and promotes healing.

The Gua Sha is a smooth edged flat tool that you rub your face and body with – you can also use a facial roller. It has the ability to break down muscular tension as well as move chi energy. Traditionally rubbing the face or body would be done vigorously, it may be slightly painful at first but with practice it become less uncomfortable because you reduce the inflammation, easing the tension and puffiness. The Gua Sha can also help promote lymphatic drainage – in the body our lymphatic system circulates lymph fluid when we move and contract our muscles, as we don’t really use our facial muscles much the Gua Sha can promote lymphatic drainage which will give your face a more toned and sculpted appearance.

How to use a Gua Sha or facial roller:

When using a Gua Sha or facial roller it is important to make sure you have facial/body oil on or a serum as it needs to glide over your skin and not cause friction. Start off by cleansing your face and applying oil/serum, keep the Gua Sha flat and glide it in an upwards and outwards direction only, you can start off pressing lightly and get more firmer the more you do it, when doing it under your eyes make sure you only ever press lightly. Take a look below for directions on using a Gua Sha on face and body.

Where to find a Gua Sha or facial roller?

We sell a Rose Quartz and Quartz Gua Sha and a beautiful facial roller with little flowers embedded in the handle as well as a mini Jade roller. Order online or come visit us in store!

Crystals and Their Energy in Your Home.

Did you know crystals can be used to improve and enhance the energy in your home by placing different crystals in different areas of your home? Read below to find out!

Cleansing the energy and welcoming in positive energy:

It is best to place crystals in your hallway to cleanse the energy in your home. Household members and guests pass through your hallway whether downstairs or upstairs, hallways connect to every room as does the energy passing through. This will have an affect on yourself and anyone else in your home. Creating a positive vibe in your hallways can cleanse any negative energy and make it a more positive vibe which will make you and others feel great! You can place crystals on your sideboard, table or you can get some floating shelves and place them on there as well!

Best crystals for the hallway:

  • Shungite: This is used for protection of electromagnetic fields and negative energies making it a great stone to place in your hallway to keep you protected by this.
  • Clear Quartz: This is the master healing crystal which helps with all forms of healing. It brings harmony and love, as well as balancing and enhancing positive energy that goes through your hallways into other rooms.

Brining an abundance of joy and love into your living room:

We spend some relaxation time in our living rooms with family and guests, so why not bring an abundance of joy and love into the room making it a happy positive vibe whilst you chat or relax! Placing some crystals on the window sill can give the living room a pretty aesthetic whilst also enhancing the energy in the room. Also by placing them on the window sill is great as when it is a full moon as they can be cleansed by the full moon energies.

Best crystals for the living room:

Citrine: This is used for bringing an abundance of positivity, optimism and inspiration, a very cheerful crystal holding the power of the sun. This makes it great to have in the living room where you socialize with others or relaxing.

Rose Quartz: This is the crystal of love. It’s calming energy attracts love, harmony and peace making it a lovely crystal to add into your living room where you can spend time on your own or with loved ones.

Brining peace and calming energy into your bedroom for a good nights sleep:

A good night’s sleep is vital for every human being to survive. Given that an average a person sleeps for 8 hours in a day, we spend about one third of our lives sleeping! Why not make your bedroom a tranquil place, even if your not sleeping its nice to have a safe space in your home where you can meditate or read a book and feel at peace. You can place crystals on your shelves or bedside table to bring the energy into the space.

Best crystals for the bedroom:

Selenite: This is a high vibrational crystal which is great for cleansing your space, it brings a calm and peaceful energy, which makes it a must have crystal in the bedroom. It also elevates your spirit and provides clarity which can help you access your intuition making this crystal also great for meditation.

Amethyst: This crystal is well known for its peaceful and calming energy, it can help reduce stress and anxiety and the symptoms that accompany it, namely headaches and fatigues. It also aids in cell regeneration (supporting your bones and joints) and is reputed to improve your skin. Whilst we sleep our cells repair themselves so having Amethyst to help aid in the repairing stage is great!

We sell the 6 must have crystals for your home on our website and in store as well as other crystal sets that can be added to your home as well such as crystal sets for sleep, anxiety and happiness. We also sell the Feng Shui book which is good for learning how to place furniture in a certain way can help the energy pass through more easily. Go and have a listen to The Soul Coaches podcast on Spotify where Carolina talks all about the energy in the home and Feng Shui, in episodes 1 to 5.

Crystal Grids

Have you ever heard of a crystal grid before? A crystal grid is an arrangement of crystals on a grid following a geometry pattern and when crystals are placed in a certain arrangement the energies become even more powerful as the pattern enhances the energy flow. Crystal grids can be used to manifest something you need, set intentions, healing and also be used to during a meditation. The crystal grids themselves can have lots of different geometry patterns on them but one of the most popular patterns is called the “Flower of Life”. The flower of life represents the cycle of creation – it shows how all life came from one source, which is the circle in the middle of the grid.

Setting Up Your Crystal Grid:

So first of all: what is the purpose of your grid? You can set your grid up to fulfil any intention, so think clearly on what you want to achieve. The combination of crystals and sacred geometry greatly strengthens your intention and allows you to manifest much more quickly – so ensure you have your intention set in your mind when you are creating your grid.

The first thing you need is a focus stone that links directly to your intention. Let’s say we are setting up a grid to attract love into your life – you would choose your centre stone thats aligned with that purpose. Let’s use Rose Quartz as our centre stone as its aligned with the heart chakra and opens us up to loving energies. You would place this down in the centre of the grid! Then you can choose another 6 to 12 crystals aligned with the same purpose – this could be amethyst for stress and anxiety, or red aventurine which is for love as well. They can all be of the same crystal or different – do what ever feels right for you! You are also going to need Quartz points as well – quartz is a master healer and amplifier and will direct the energy to flow in the direction it faces.

Place your other chosen crystals around your centre stone, leaving a gap between each one. Think about the geometry pattern you’ve gone with when you place the crystals – are there specific points in the pattern? Once you’ve done this, you can place your quartz points around the outside of the centre stone – these act as stepping stones and help connect each crystal to one another. Remember that the point directs the energy so if you place the points towards the Rose Quartz, it will send the energy into it. If you place the points facing away from the Rose Quartz, the energy will flow out from it. The idea is that the energy flows through each crystal, amplifying your intentions and goals.

Activating Your Crystal Grid:

So now you have your grid set up, you’ll want to cleanse and charge the crystals and the grid. You can use another quartz point to do this or you can just use your hand – its all about the intention! Move your hand or point and go counter clockwise above the grid, and ask that “All and any previous energy is removed from the crystals and grid”. Once you feel you have cleansed it, you now need to charge your grid. This time, go clockwise above the grid with your hand or point and ask that the healing properties of the crystals influence the space for your highest good. You can now set your final intention – for our purpose we can say “I am loved and I radiate a loving energy to myself and people around me”.

You can leave your grid intact for as long as you feel you need to. You can change it whenever you want – just make sure you follow the same steps. Also think about where you want to keep it – perhaps under your bed or on your altar? Have fun with your crystal grid and do what feels right for you!

We sell crystal grid books and starter packs which includes your small quartz points and one large Quartz point! Our crystal sets are also great for forming your crystal grid.

Crystal Shapes & Their Meanings

Not only do crystals come in all different colours, will all different properties, but they also come in all different shapes! These shapes have different meanings too, and whilst they don’t change the energy the crystal emits, they do change the way you receive said energy. Here are some of the common crystal shapes and their meanings so next time you’re choosing a crystal, you know it’s going to pair well with your intention and enhance the energy!

Tumblestones
The most common way for a crystal to come in is in a tumblestone. These are just pieces of crystal that have gone through a tumble machine to create a small and smooth piece that is excellent to keep in your pocket or in a dish at home. They tend to be less expensive than other pieces, so they are great for beginners or those starting their crystal collection. Even for the crystal pros, tumblestones are a must have for keeping in your pocket so you can feel it’s energy whenever you need it.

Points, Towers, Pyramids & Obelisks
These pieces can go by different names but the main principle is that they have a flat base and a point at the tip. As the name suggests, these pieces help keep you sharp and on point. It helps you keep you focused, especially on a goal or intention, making it an excellent tool for manifestation work. The flat base works as an anchor for your intention, whilst the point helps direct your intention and radiate it out through the Universe!


Spheres
These crystal pieces are perfectly round and smooth – reminiscent of the world. This is why they are excellent tools at helping us feel connected to the Universal Energy all around us and reminding us that we are a part of something greater. As they are evenly round, it also helps emit energy equally to all sides helping us feel balanced. They are great for meditative work as they fit nicely in the palm of your hand.

Wands
These crystal pieces can vary quite a bit but the principle is the same. They may be double terminated and have a point at each end, or they may have one pointed end and one smooth end, or they could be smooth both ends! Wands allow energy to flow and be directed – the energy can travel up and down, in and out. This makes them excellent tools for healing! You can release any negative energy out whilst bringing healing energy in. You can use them to intuitively scan the body to locate any blockages, or to move any energy between the chakras.

Hearts
These crystals have been carved in the shape of a heart. As the name suggests, these pieces resonate with the heart and are excellent at opening your heart chakra to all kinds of love! The energy these pieces emit are more loving and softer, making it excellent if you need gentler healing. They help us feel at peace and in harmony, free of any emotional trauma or wounds. They can also be used to enhance the energy of your relationship corner and can facilitate loving energy between two partners!

The Relationship Corner

According to Feng Shui, each area of your home represents an area of your life. If the energy in this area of your home is balanced, then that area of your life will be balanced. However, if the area is cluttered or in disarray, then this can have detrimental affect on your life. You can manipulate this energy to enhance aspects of your life.

The relationship corner is found in the right hand corner of your bedroom, with your back against the bedroom door. First of all, you need to think about what you have in this corner and whether it represents love. For example, don’t keep your bin in this corner! Also throw away anything that is no longer serving you, as clutter holds onto negative energy.

Once you have done this, you can start incorporating objects that will enhance your love life and symbolise the relationships you desire.

You could put two chunks of Rose Quartz to represent yourself and your partner, or one if you are single. Rose Quartz is the crystal for love, and can help stimulate loving energies in your life. You could even place it in a heart dish for extra energy!

You could put one of our relationship figurines in this corner as well. This can represent your current relationship or the relationship you desire.

Whatever you do, make sure you place it with intention!
