Why have crystals become so popular?

October 8, 2020April 28, 2021 by Allie Phillips

A friend recently asked me: “Why have crystals become so popular?”

My response: “You’re asking me as I sit in a trailer full of crystals pretending that I’m not taking most of them home? LOL”

Seriously, I’ve been an attorney since 1994 and I have a home filled with crystals and I teach crystal healing classes. What’s up with that? For me it’s two answers: (1) If something helps me feel better, calmer, more energized, I don’t need a double-blind peer-reviewed study to tell me it works. And (2) once I dove deep into learning the science of crystals, that helped my intellectual mind understand what my intuitive mind already knew … they work!

Here’s why I think crystals are growing in popularity:

More people are opening their eyes to all of the toxins in our food, cleaners, skincare products, makeup and more. They are feeling tired, sluggish and out of sorts and traditional options are not working. So they are trying more Earth-based products like crystals and essential oils and finding that they feel better. Placebo effect? Maybe, but in my experience it is doubtful to be placebo. We don’t need research studies to tell us whether something works. Eventually science will catch up with what I know works.
Many are feeling the shift in energy that is coming from changes in Earth’s frequency, changes in planetary placements, feeling the collective energy of all beings on the planet, and our own internal shift as we evolve to the next level. The plant, animal and mineral kingdoms all communicate with each other. So humans and animal instinctively are drawn to touch a crystal. We feel the soothing nature of crystals during these times even if most can’t explain why.
Many are drawn to crystals to help quiet the mind, help with mindfulness, and go deeper into a meditation and spiritual practice. DIY Spirituality is big right now and crystals help!
More non-metaphysical businesses are delving into crystals by placing them in their stores or creating beautiful crystal products and jewelry which catch the eye of a shopper. Even the growing tech industry relies on crystals to power phones, computers and televisions.
Crystals are simply beautiful in how they refract light and sparkle, so some people are decorating their homes with crystals even if they do not fully understand or appreciate what crystals do to enhance the energy of a space.
Some people are fascinated with the ancient history and culture of crystals and how they were used thousands of years ago.
The essential oil world discovered crystals a few years ago. I have been blending crystals and essential oils together for over a decade but the concept has EXPLODED and spilled over to social media where crystals are getting more attention. But not all crystals can be blended in liquid, like an essential oil. My book The Oily Crystal explains why.
There are reputable, educated and trained teachers offering solid crystal classes in-person and online to help people understand that these are more than pretty sparkly stones. There is an energy to crystals that has a scientific basis and explanation of what crystals do for our cells, emotions and more. I have been teaching about crystals for almost a decade and I blend the science AND the spiritual art of what crystals really do. I help people understand why Rose Quartz helps the Heart Chakra.

If you’ve been intrigued by crystals, I am inviting you to join in one of my crystal classes. My Basic Crystal Healing and Crystal Healing for Animals classes are now ONLINE in addition to being in-person in Lansing, Michigan. And my 2-day Advanced Crystal Healing class is now online.

The plague of deleting people

February 24, 2015December 19, 2015 by Allie Phillips

Have you ever been deleted from someone’s life without a conversation or even a goodbye? I have and it is really disturbing, right? It is baffling when someone simply walks away and deletes you without the courtesy of a conversation (whether in person or online). With the growth of social media, it is beautiful to connect across the globe with friends from the past and to make new friends. But connecting online can be superficial and it sets up a culture that when you are upset or uninterested in maintaining a connection, you simply unfriend and delete the person. I am seeing this happening more and more and it conflicts with the new energy of more compassion and connections.

I’m going to blunt to these deletors … it’s cowardly, it’s low vibrational energy, it’s immature, and we don’t want to share that energy with you. But it is hurtful when it happens.

So what’s a sensitive soul to do when you have been deleted? Here are some tried and true techniques that have helped:

Have a conversation with yourself that the other person’s dismissive conduct really has nothing to do with you. If it did, they would not hesitate to have a conversation of throwing blame on you if you really did something wrong. When someone just leaves without notice or conversation, it is wholly about them. And the one thing in life that you cannot control is other people.
Recognize that if the person was a close friend, family member or romantic partner, that you likely had a soul contract with them to learn something (and they also had something to learn). Spend quiet time reflecting on what you were supposed to learn and then LEARN IT! Otherwise you will attract another similar energy and have to learn the lesson again and again and again. When you learn the lesson, the person will disappear because the contract is complete.
Be grateful that the person came into your life to teach you a lesson and that you learned it and can move on. Thank them in person or write them a letter (and not send it) for the lesson and wish them well. From a true place of genuineness, send them love for their own healing and you will find that forgiveness comes faster.
Have a closure ceremony: Light candles, play beautiful music, diffuse essential oils, thank them and say goodbye. Even set the thank you letter on fire outdoors and send it to source energy.
Then you need to support yourself through the healing. Let yourself cry, grieve and go through the process. Don’t block it because you will just embed the hurtful energy deeper into your cells. These supportive tools can really help:

There will always be people out there who take the easy way out of a situation and simply delete you without the courtesy of a conversation. Even though it will hurt, just know that their conduct has nothing to do with you and you have tools available to help you quickly recover and attract in people who will nurture and love you.

Healing for Horses

May 6, 2014 by

In all of my energy healing classes, I incorporate a hands-on practice session for my students. They either practice on each other, or in the case of animal healing courses I have them practice on animal volunteers. Usually those volunteers are my cats, the dog of a friend, or the amazing horses at a nearby therapeutic horse center.

For my Reiki for Animals class, the students get to practice on my cats and horses. I want them to sense the different energy between horses and cats/dogs. Horses are so amazingly expressive when we work with them; we receive clear messages from them (intuitively, yet it is like the horses are speaking to us). They are great at showing us physically what needs energy and what needs releasing. Since it is difficult to explain what that looks like, I created a short video from the Reiki for Animals class this past weekend. We worked with 4 horses and all were great teachers for us. Two in particular are in the video to showcase the beautiful healing responses that they shared.

As with any healing, it is crucial that you receive permission before offering energy healing to any animal (or person). Read my blog about that! I also feel that it is important to receive training on how to properly and safely offer energy healing to animals. Offering energy healing to animals is quite different than people. This is why I have several classes on how to do this: Crystal Healing for Animals, Integrated Energy Therapy for Pets, and Reiki for Animals.

Enjoy the video and all that horses can teach us! And if you want to see other videos of how animals enjoy energy healing, check out my YouTube page where I have 13 videos on animal healing!

Watch those hands: sending energy healing

April 29, 2014 by

Is it ethical to send energy healing to a person or animal without their permission? This is a very sensitive topic for some healers. No matter where you look these days, you will encounter stories of people and animals who are suffering, hurt, in harms way or passing.

It is natural for a healer to want to send healing during times of suffering. This is a compassionate, empathetic response that is normal. Good intentions are admirable and much needed in this world. But it is important to look to your energy healing training on any ethical guidelines that you received. For most modalities, permission from the energy healing recipient is required. It is actually considered a violation of our ethical standards to send healing to anyone (person or animal) without permission. Why? A doctor, accountant, or other professional would not provide a service without permission, right? The same goes true for energy workers. But most important, the energy that you send could end up interfering with any healing work that they may already be doing and may not be in the person or animal’s highest good.

So how do you ask permission?

If the person is with you, just ask!
If the person is at a distance and you can contact them, ask for permission!
If the person is at a distance and you do not know them to ask permission, meditate and quiet your mind, look at their photo (if you have one) and mentally send them a question asking if they would welcome some healing energy. The first thing that comes to mind is their answer. If the answer is no, it must be respected. But you can certainly ask again another time.
If it is an animal that is with you, follow the same procedure above. Quiet yourself, sit with the animal, ask them (out loud or in your mind) if they would welcome healing. Listen for an intuitive answer or watch to see if they move towards you. If they move away or give a clear signal that they do not want healing, always respect it and stop. You can always try again later. Never ever force energy healing on an animal … that is absolutely an ethical no no!
If the animal is at a distance or you do not know, quiet your mind, focus on their photo (if you have one) and follow the same procedure above to see if you get an intuitive answer. Only if you get a signal to proceed should you offer healing.
If any any point you do not get a clear answer or are uncertain, be cautious and do not send healing.

In some modalities, such as Integrated Energy Therapy (an angelic healing), you can send healing without permission and the energy will be stored for the person or animal and when they are ready to receive it, that is when it will arrive for them.

We all want to help and it can be heartbreaking to watch others in pain. But we must avoid sending energy when it’s not welcomed. So before you activate that glorious healing, stop, ask permission, and only send if you receive a clear verbal, physical, or intuitive message to proceed.

Happy Healing!

Techies Need Healing Too: At South by Southwest

March 11, 2014 by

Manifested Harmony had the extreme honor of being the only (and very likely the first) energy healing business selected to attend the South by Southwest Interactive conference in Austin, Texas. I had no idea what to expect but quickly learned that about 40,000 tech/music/film professionals were present! Yesterday, my friend and healing student, Julie and I held an alternative healing meet-up for tech professionals! Our goal was to spread information about energy laws and energy healing to help them open to a new way to resolve stress and stay healthier and positive while working in stressful jobs. Why did we select this group of people? It’s easy to talk about these topics to people who are interested and seeking guidance; it’s a whole other basket of fun to talk to people who have never heard of energy healing and energy laws. This is where you make progress in the field; this is where you change a person’s life for the better. This is how we did it:

We made the room super vibey (new age music, diffusing essential oils, our friend Tanya brought and played her Tibetan singing bowls, candles)
We had tables representing various areas of interest, such as:
- Energy, energy fields and chakras
- Universal energies and the Law of Attraction
- The science of crystals
- ]The power of essential oils
- Happy healthy pets
Talking one-on-one with each person about how energy laws and healing come together (it’s what Manifested Harmony is all about) and to answer specific questions
Sending each attendee off with crystals to help them on their path!

We met some fantastic people who know that they need to expand their horizon and embrace energy laws and healing to improve their lives. So I feel that our mission was accomplished and the trip was worthwhile! Now that Manifested Harmony has made its inaugural debut at SXSW, plans are already in the works to head back in 2015! We’re changing the lives of people one meet-up at a time! I’d love to hear from you on what you think about what we did, the people that we reached, etc. Post me a comment! Want to learn how to tap into your brilliance using the Law of Attraction? Take my online self-paced You are Your Thoughts 5-part class for only $73 and receive a solid foundation to understanding how you can manifest with the Law of Attraction. Vibrationally yours,

It’s about consistency!

October 29, 2013December 19, 2015 by Allie Phillips

I am often asked how often a person or a pet should receive energy healing. The answer I give is dependent upon whether there is an immediate or chronic issue at hand, or whether the goal is to maintain balance and wellbeing. But my answer is usually the same …. Consistency.

Energy healing works with the body’s energy field (which is also called the subtle energy field). Some people do not feel much, other than relaxation, after their first session. I notice changes and energy shifts when someone is consistent with their energy sessions. And this consistency can either be in having someone else provide the energy healing, or taking a class to learn how to provide your own healing.

Energy healing is like exercising. The first time, you may feel great. But if you don’t do it again, or if you put too much time in between sessions, you will not notice much change. Like exercising, even short sessions with frequency will provide the best results.

For someone who is otherwise healthy and wants to maintain balance and wellbeing, I recommend once a month session with a healer (and/or weekly self-healing). If someone is dealing with an imminent or chronic issue (either physical or emotional), I recommend weekly sessions for the 4-6 weeks (until an obvious shift is noticed) and then moving to twice monthly then monthly sessions (and/or daily self-healing).

For pets, I recommend short (15-20 minute) sessions with frequency according to the same schedule as above.

I have tested this schedule with numerous human and pet clients. Those who are consistent are achieving the results that they want (thus getting their money’s worth).

So what can you do?

Locate an energy healer and schedule consistent sessions. Review your budget of how you spend your money (food, housing, etc.) and recognize the importance of budgeting for your health and wellbeing. If you’re in the Northern Virginia/DC area, I offer healing sessions and can help you set up a consistent schedule of wellbeing.
Take an energy healing class so that you can learn how to provide self-healing. Offering self-healing not only hones your skills, but will give you the consistency you need for those positive energy shifts. I offer these classes that benefit people and pets: Usui Reiki, Crystal Healing, and Integrated Energy Therapy.
Wear crystals everyday! I always wear crystals with each providing different energies. Sometimes I need grounding, other times I want to sooth inflammation. You can find crystal bracelets and other jewelry at metaphysical stores or at Healingcrystals.com.
Schedule quiet time (meditation) into your day. When you can quiet your mind, you will relax which will allow your body to start balancing.

Occasional or inconsistent sessions are certainly better than nothing. But you may not see the results that you want; results that you desire that brought you to energy healing in the first place. And while one session will get the process started, consistency will allow the energy to build upon itself and you will then have noticeable energy shifts. For me, daily energy healing is what helps me to deal with stress, our changing planetary energies, and to maintain balance and wellbeing.

Happy Healing!

How resilient are you?

October 15, 2013December 19, 2015 by Allie Phillips

This Friday will be the 10^th anniversary that I left Michigan and moved to Virginia for employment. It’s a bittersweet day that fills me with conflicting emotions. Let me share a little of why October 18, 2003 was a bittersweet day.

The long story is contained in my first book (How Shelter Pets are Brokered for Experimentation: Understanding Pound Seizure) if you want the juicy details. The short story is this:

I was a very successful and highly respected prosecuting attorney in my home state of Michigan with a promising future. It was my dream job, although it was filled with incredible stress, a few death threats, and constantly viewing the worst of humanity. In early 2003, I exposed some misconduct at the local animal shelter about how they were selling animals to research. Rather than investigate what I had uncovered, my boss turned on me, tried to get criminal charges on me, and publicly accused me in the media of the worst thing that I can be accused of … being unethical and dishonest. He openly threatened me, I was terrified to be in my own home, and I became a recluse for months out of fear. When my boss ordered me to “take back” what I had uncovered in order to keep my job, I held true to my principles and what I knew and walked away. He then proceeded to block me from any prosecution job in the state. Eight months later, I was relieved when I was offered a position as a national trainer with a nonprofit organization that trains prosecutors. I would be able to stay in my chosen legal field, avoid the face-to-face dealings with criminals and death threats, and teach others (which I love to do). But I had to move to Virginia and leave my life behind.

It was traumatic leaving my beautiful house, my family, my friends, my chosen profession, and everything that was home behind. Life was a blur and I’m still not sure how I went through it. In the grand scale of traumatic events, it may not seem traumatic, but at the time it was my living nightmare.

For 3 years, I could barely embrace my new life. I simply was not resilient. My energy was stuck in my old life and was refusing to move forward. I just worked, went home, and wanted to hide. At the time, I had never heard of the Law of Attraction or energy healing. Gosh, I could have used both of those then because I know that I would have bounced back a lot faster.

So why am I sharing this? I certainly do not want to revive the energy of what I experienced 10 years ago. But I think it is worth having a discussion about resiliency.

We all know people who have endured horrific traumas and appear to bounce back quickly and embrace life. We also know people who crumble into despair with objectively minimal bumps in life. Some people have the fight instinct, others the flight instinct. I had the frozen instinct. On the outside, I was composed, professional, did not stoop to the level of my boss, ended up mobilizing a community to stop the selling of animals to research at the animal shelter (which then became a state-wide movement that still continues today), and appeared to be handling the situation with grace. On the inside, I was broken and stuck. I was unable to move with the ebb and flows of the change because the change was so unexpected and excessive. But I instinctively knew that I needed to “fake it ‘til you make it” and keeping a positive attitude outwardly would help me feel better. Gee, that’s what we’re taught to do to manifest what we want with the Law of Attraction.

Resiliency is the key to how we handle trauma and even the day-to-day changes we’re experiencing now. Having a balanced and grounded Earth and Root Chakra helps. So if you haven’t been resilient in the past, how can you become more resilient? Here are a few suggestions that worked for me:

Never stop looking for the good that can come out of a bad situation;
Let yourself go through the grieving process, do not bottle up your feelings;
Confide in people you can trust who will also make sure you do not dwell on the trauma;
Remember that the Universe/Source/God has a plan for you and even when bad things happen, there is something for us to learn;
Call upon your Angels for guidance and help (they are always there, you just need to ask);
Read Law of Attraction books (or take one of my upcoming online classes) to learn how to pull yourself out of the trauma; and
Gift yourself energy healing sessions (as many as it takes) to pull the trauma energy out of your energy field.

When I look back, I wish things would have been different, but know that I was being shifted onto a bigger path to make more of a difference. I don’t miss the death threats, the stress of constant trials, or the toll the stress was taking on me.

Had I stayed where I was, it would have been comfortable. But I doubt that I would have created Manifested Harmony, would know about energy healing or the Law of Attraction, would have written 2 books, or would have become nationally recognized for my work to help crime victims (human and animal) on a national level. I miss my family and friends, but have made new friends and have created a lovely home for myself.

So this 10^th anniversary is bittersweet for me but as time goes on it becomes sweeter and I learn more about resiliency. I can honestly say that once I discovered the path of energy healing and Law of Attraction work, that is when my energy shifted and my old energy moved on. If you are struggling with being stuck in old energy, I hope this post helps you. I’m here to help!

Now fully enjoying where life takes me!

Getting on your true path

July 23, 2013 by

We all know people who have a great life; they love their job, have a loving family, and live life with joy. And we all know people who seem to struggle with every step; they are miserable in their work, in their relationships, and make decisions that are not in their best interest. For some, you are a little of each. But which side do you spend more time in?

In the years that I have been working with healing energy and the Law of Attraction Universal energy, I know that consciously living with the “energy” has put me on a path that feels genuine and true. It may have been a bumpy path, but I know that I needed to go through some challenges to get here. At times, I was divinely guided to take steps that now make sense. I also see the same thing with others who have received energy healing sessions, took energy healing classes, and/or learned about the Law of Attraction. I see their life now being divinely guided down their true path and it’s beautiful to watch.

When you open yourself to healing and universal energies, those energies begin to subtly shift your world towards your true soul path. If you are far off of your true path, the shift could feel like negative situations (such as losing a job, losing a relationship/marriage, losing money, losing your health, having a spiritual crisis, or just feeling uncomfortable in your life). At the time, you may feel like you’ve done something bad that brought on the loss of things in your life. It’s actually the contrary; they may be things that served you well in the past but are no longer in your truest best interest.

If you are only slightly off of your true path, the subtle shifts may go unnoticed until one day you look back to a year, two years, five years ago and see that you are physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually in a different place. You look back with a smile and wonder how did I get here? The answer: the energy moved you.

Most people are terrified of change. I used to be one of those people. Now, I embrace change and enjoy looking back over the years to see the amazing gifts that I have in my life. I can absolutely attribute all of the change (the bumpy parts and the blessings) to my work with healing and Universal energies.

I was recently reflecting on some Reiki teachings and shared with someone that when you welcome the healing energy of Reiki into your life (either through energy healing sessions or being attuned to Reiki energy), the energy will move through you to help redirect you onto your true path. When I first heard that teaching, I was terrified that I would lose some things that were comfortable in my life. I did lose some things, but in looking back those were things that were not beneficial for me living my best life. They were holding me back. And what I saw was that when something leaves, something else must appear.

If you feel uncomfortable in any part of your life, welcoming healing and Universal energies in your life will help to make those subtle shifts to get you on your path. If you can trust in the process and know that change will be in your best interest, then you can relax and enjoy the journey. And after all, isn’t that what life is supposed to be?

Enjoy your journey … and make it a great one!

Why I love crystals so much

May 14, 2013 by

Me with crystal — Hello Flower (yes, I name them!)

Whenever I mention that I am a crystal healer, I get one of two reactions: (1) people think I’ve gone woo woo, or (2) people think it’s cool and want to know more. For the people who think I’ve become a wack-a-doo, I simply remind them that I’m a licensed attorney, attorneys require evidence and proof of things, and I’ve experienced the power of what crystals can do. Case closed! LOL

But even if I were not an attorney, I would still have proof of what I have experienced with crystals (for myself and clients), such as:

Achieving a sense of ease in life;
Not being at the whim of outside influences;
Encountering change with grace;
Living life in awe and not in fear;
Having balanced and stable emotions;
Feeling positive;
Better handling of toxic and negative people;
Better sleep;
Physical vitality;
And my cats lay on top of crystals (and animals are drawn to healing).

Adjoite — Ajoite (rare crystal) travels with me!

I believe that so many different energy therapies can help you achieve some or all of these experiences. But when I began the serious study of crystals a few years ago (and loaded my home with them), the shifts were obvious. Yes, I have a ridiculous number of crystals in my home and in my healing practice. Sometime soon, I will create a videotape showing you how much I have.

Julie's fear grid — A body grid to help with fear

For my clients, I include crystals in almost all healing sessions; I have crystals in my healing room and classes; I create crystal grids on clients during sessions and also environmental grids that send out healing.

I have filled my home, work space, and healing space with crystals. I have crystals under my bed (Selenite is great), between me and my computer (Black Tourmaline transmutes the negative EMFs), Rose Quartz everywhere (to help my senior kitty Lucy be kinder to my kitten Rudy). I wear crystals constantly, I travel with them, I have them in my garden to welcome the animals. And if there is a place where I cannot take a crystal, I take my crystal elixirs and spritz the area. I am never without crystals. We are bombarded with so much electrical energy and toxic human energy each day and crystals can help to keep our energy field in balance. And when our energy field is balanced, our body/mind/spirit is healthy.

Don’t worry … You do not need to be a crystal hoarder like I am! Just a few crystals will really help. Go to your local new age store or check out online merchants like Healingcrystals.com or Allipacha.com. See what crystals you are drawn to and it will tell you what you need to work on to balance your life. And the size matters! Crystals give off energy, and the larger the crystal the larger the energy field that it will envelop. Get yourself some crystal books (check out my recommendations on Amazon). Take a class (check out my Introduction to Vibrational Healing on June 15th or my Crystal classes coming up later this summer). Once you start to learn about crystals, you will be amazed at how much they have to offer.

3 reasons to take energy healing classes

April 23, 2013 by

I am a natural-born teacher and I love to share information with people. Whether it’s a crowded room of over 1000 people, or a small class of two people, I love to watch people’s eyes open wide when teaching resonates deep within. I especially love to create interesting classes and share innovative ideas.

So I want to share with you 3 reasons why I think you would benefit greatly from taking the energy healing classes that I offer through Manifested Harmony:

When you learn about how energy works to positively and negatively impact our body (or the body of your companion animal), you can take steps to make sure that you are living in a way to help your body thrive. And when your body is healthy and vital, the rest of your life goes smoothly.
When you learn a energy healing method, whether it’s Reiki, Crystal therapy, Integrated Energy Therapy, or even the teachings of the Law of Attraction, you can begin to work on yourself, your family, friends, and companion animals. You will learn techniques that you can immediately put to use!
Once you open yourself to energy healing techniques, you will notice that things begin to positively shift in your life. You may feel more emotionally balanced, you will have less fear and doubt, you will see the good in people/situations, and you will appreciate all that you have with more gratitude (which will then bring more to you to be grateful about). Life will be better!

So to help everyone take a small teensy weensy step into the world that I like to call vibrational healing, I have created an afternoon class called Introduction to Vibrational Healing. For only $49 (a small investment in your well-being), you can learn about different energy healing techniques. The class is being held in Alexandria, VA on June 15^th! If you don’t live in the area, don’t worry because I will also offer the class online later in the summer.

Or if you’re ready to dive in, these classes are already on the calendar:

May 5 = Basic Integrated Energy Therapy (deadline to register is this Sunday!!!)

May 19 = Integrated Energy Therapy for Pets (Basic is a pre-requisite)

June 8 = Intermediation Integrated Energy Therapy (Basic is a pre-requisite)

July 13 = Reiki Level One

July 14 = Reiki for Animals (Reiki Level One is a pre-requisite)

August 24 = Crystal Healing Basics & Grids

September 8 = Crystal Healing for Animals

If you work or volunteer with animals, you can receive 20% of your registration fee. With each class, you will receive practical hands-on session experience, a detailed workbook and a certification of completion. Each class is really fun, packed with information, and you will feel amazing spending a day with healing energy.

Taking an energy healing class is a wonderful investment in your well-being and those around you. I hope to see you in class soon!!
