Today I'm chatting with Heather Askinosie, co-founder of Energy Muse, a leading provider of healing crystals and crystal jewelry, along with her business partner Timmi Jandro. Heather is a leading influencer on the power of crystals, Feng Shui, and holistic healing. Heather and Timmi authored the book, Crystal Muse, Everyday Rituals to Tune into the Real You (Hay House, 2017), and Heather’s debut solo book, CRYSTAL365, is launching on November 12, 2019. CRYSTAL365 is a full-color “instgrammable” guide to 52 crystals, including crystal combinations and rituals to elevate your everyday life.

In this episode, Heather shares the story of how she fell in love with crystals, how Energy Muse was born, and how her time studying crystals in Hawaii and working with healers all over the world affected her spirituality. Heather explains more about the power of Feng Shui and crystals, as well as how the energy world works. Heather discusses how to get started with crystals, how to clear your crystals, what to look for in terms of sourcing, and what to know about counterfeit crystals. We also discuss the best crystals to start your collection with, what Heather's favorite crystals are, which crystals to use for money, manifestation, and love, and much more.
