by Laura Konst
Healing work asks something of the healer. Whether you work in a formal healing profession or simply bring steadiness and care to the people around you, the crystals in this guide are chosen for the three things every healer needs: energetic protection, elevated and clear awareness, and consistent self-cleansing and restoration.
