This is the Paranormal Podcast with Jim Herald.

Welcome to the Paranormal Podcast.

I'm Jim Herald, so glad to be with you once again.

And over the years, we have kind of developed a roster of favorite guests on specific topics.

People, you know, you can go to one of the subjects and they always have something interesting

and insightful to offer.

And when it comes to crystals, the first name that comes to mind is Nicholas Pearson.

And he's been on the show multiple times.

He's been immersed in all aspects of the mineral kingdom for nearly 30 years and is one

of the leading voices in the world of crystals.

Today, he offers a unique blend of science and spirituality alongside a grounded practical

approach to working with crystals.

And he is the author of multiple books, including his latest crystal basics, the pocket

encyclopedia, the energetic healing and spiritual power of 450 gemstones that's just out

and he lives in Orlando, Florida.

You can find his website at theluminousperl.com.

Nicholas, welcome back to the show today.

Thanks so much for having me again, Jim.

I'm really looking forward to our conversation.

Well, it's always good to speak with you.

And I'm always amazed by what you bring forward in your various books and some of your

books, you get very in-depth, you know, and so forth in their large books.
