When you might be reaching for Rose Quartz
 
Are you bothered by busy thoughts when you need to relax?  
Are you carrying the chaos of your day into your sleep patterns?
Do you wish you could slow your thoughts and relax more deeply before bed?
 
Rose Quartz can be a soothing crystal companion for those times when you feel overwhelmed, and your thoughts seem to continue to race as you try to relax.  Crystals can work with your intentions and desires to calm those thought patterns, and while learning how to release the emotions that are blocking you from finding peace and calm.   Crystals do not replace proper mental health care; they are a companion on your journey of self-healing.  
 
Your beautiful, naturally pink Rose Quartz crystal has such a unique feel.  The very top has a super smooth, polished top where you can see into the heart of your gem.   It is dense, but you can see patterns as you turn it in the light.  Measuring over 1 and 1/2 inches long by 1 and 1/4 inch deep, the back and sides are a matte soft finish that is very interesting to hold.  This crystal can rest on several of its sides.  
 
Here's a quick little ritual that you can use when you are working with this crystal.  
 
A Simple Rose Quartz Bedtime Ritual
 
Before going to bed, hold your Rose Quartz stone in your hand or place it near your heart for a moment while sitting or lying comfortably.  Take three slow breaths and allow your shoulders to relax.
 
Set an intention for the night, such as:
I release the day and welcome calm, restful sleep.
I allow myself to relax.
I let go of the thoughts that are causing me unrest. 
I release the stress of the day and leave it behind me.
 
Allow your thoughts to slow as you breathe gently and let the events of the day drift away.  Place your stone somewhere close to you but safe so that it is protected as you slumber.  
 
Note: Please keep Rose Quartz out of the sunlight as it will fade.   It comes with the card you see in the photo, and you get the exact crystal you see in the images.
