Top 5 crystals for your home

 Here at Quest we sell so many crystals it can be a bit daunting! To narrow them down, we've researched and discovered the best crystals you can have in your home. Rose Quartz is my favourite and I have an abundance of it in my relationship corner; I've found it really helps to strengthen and stabilize my relationships (friends, family and even those occasional romantic ones)


1. Rose Quartz

Rose Quartz is a stone that promotes love and harmony. It assists in opening and healing heart chakras and encourages forgiveness and compassion. It heals emotional trauma which helps one to let go and feel good within themselves.

Perfect if you're going through a crisis, your daughters (or sons) are experiencing their first heartbreak or you feel you need a few more loving vibes at home. 

2. Amethyst

Amethyst is a very powerful and protective stone. It is extremely soothing and calming and is great for any kind of cleansing. A wonderful stone for psychic and spiritual development it also guards against psychic attack. 

This stone is excellent for squabbling kids, argumentative adults and as a protection from any negative energies that may be infiltrating your household, a few pieces of this dotted around and your home will once more be a tranquil haven.

3.Clear Quartz

Clear Quartz is known to be the 'master healer' of the crystal world.  A stone for good health and wellbeing, it can be used to aid with healing on any part of the body. Place a little piece of this energising stone in your home and harmony, healing and happiness is sure to ensue!

4. Citrine

Citrine is a stone for abundance. Abundance in health, happiness, wealth and all aspects of your life. As well as this it's a great cleanser and regenerator, is very creative and energising and is brilliant for recharging when you take a well deserved rest day. 

Citrine in the home will help you to grow anything you wish to grow, whether it be wealth, happiness, love, friendship, creativity or anything else you may desire.

5. Black Tourmaline

Black tourmaline is one of the best stones around for grounding and protection. It absorbs negative energies from electric appliances. When placed around the home it protects the whole space from negative energies. 

 A truly wonderful stone to have at home if you want to keep the nightmares at bay and protect yourselves and your family from all the nasty energy transmissions from the abundant amounts of electrics we can't seem to live without nowadays. 

I hope you find this article and these crystals helpful in enhancing your home life!

 Love and peace,

F**k It Therapy

I came into work today full of happiness and glee for absolutely no reason whatsoever (I'm going to put it down to the fact I actually ate breakfast...)  and it was marvellous! I've had such a great day because of it.

I wondered why we don't all wake up feeling super happy every day and how we can go about doing it, so I had a browse through the self help books to see if anything might be of use. I'm not usually one for self help books or CDs or anything as they're too fluffy for me (but just right for others). I found a book called 'F**k It Therapy' by John C Parkin and was very intrigued. After picking it up, reading the blurb and having a flick through, I decided this was not a normal self help book. This one was special.

The plan is to start reading this tomorrow (my day off) to ensure I'm as happy as larry whenever I choose to be. I will keep you updated on how it's going and how great this book will be.

I bought a cute little fairy bookmark that I adore to help keep my place whilst I try and sort out my life; I usually read from a Kindle but I just have a feeling I'm going to be buying more books from now on. 

Both book and bookmark can be found online or in store.

Sunday detox day!

It's the end of one week and the start of a new one, I always find Sundays to be slightly fragmentary; a little disconnected from the rest of the week. Sometimes slow, quiet and dare I say, boring. But often a day for total relaxation, preparing yourself for the week ahead and spending time with family. 

I like to use Sundays as the day to look after me. Meditation, exercise, baths, wholesome food and naps make up the majority of my day. I've recently been adding Himalayn Salt crystals to my bath as they are fantastic to detox and balance out your body's natural acidity and alkaline levels.For more information, click me 
 

I got thinking and thought that there must be other things you can add to your baths to detox, not just salt. A quick google search yielded lots of results; ginger detox, the baking soda detox, a hydrogen peroxide bath (?!?!) I decided to play it safe and try out an essential oil detox bath. The main reason being is that whatever ailments you may have there is usually an oil that can help you. 

I chose lavender for it's calming, relaxational effects. All you need to do once you have chosen an oil is run a hot bath, mix together a handful of Himalayan crystal salt (or Epsom salts), half a cup of baking soda (I thought this was slightly strange too) and add to the bath alongside 10 drops of essential oil. Soak for 20minutes and rinse off with a cool shower to clear off any residue. This was a gorgeous recipe and I really felt the toxins being drawn out and eliminated from my body, it smelled great too.

So draw yourself a nourishing detox bath, make yourself a green tea, find a good book, light some candles and relax (tea, book and candles optional but advised)

Quest sells both gorgeous selling candles, Himalayan crystal salt and essential oils! A win win for everyone 

Enjoy your relaxing Sundays, peace and love xoxo

Learning to read the tarot cards..

Hiya everyone,

About a year ago I posted a bit on how I was going to teach myself how to learn the tarot and that I was so determined to do so. Unfortunately, life (and my inability to stick to one project at a time) got in the way and I got distracted by other shiny new things. 

This summer however, I will do it. I've managed to get a few family members on board who are going to learn with me which I hope will be beneficial as we will be able to encourage each other and help each other whilst learning. I've mentioned it to my friends and they've been very supportive and are keen for me to practice on them which is even better! 

We have an exellent teacher named Steve (who works at Quest as an angel card reader) and lessons are due to start any week now. I'm getting rather excited and will be posting a little summary after each lesson to keep track of my progress. 

The pack of cards we will each be using are The Original Rider Waite Tarot Deck accompanied by The Tarot Bible. 

You can purchase these from spiritualquest.co.uk

I've been toying with these cards for well over a year now and they really are beautiful and the clearest deck I've seen before. The bible is filled with detailed explanations of each card; different layouts and how to read the tarot. Both are fantastic for beginners.

If you are interested in learning how to read the tarot yourself, Steve is holding a 5 week Tarot Course running from 7pm - 9pm on Tuesdays 29th July, 12th August, 26th August, 9th September and 23rd September for £60. If you'd like to book a place, give us a call on 01372 878606

Indian Head Massage Review

At work yesterday I was treated to a beautiful Indian Head Massage by Quest’s reflexologist, Sarah Newby. 

At only 15minutes long, it was a great session that covered by head, neck, upper back and shoulders. I wasn’t sure what to expect as I was an Indian Head Massage virgin but I will definitely be going back for more.

It left me with an amazing sense of relaxation and rejuvenation. I wasn’t sluggish and tired like I usually am after a long day at work and showed it by going home for a jog before seeing friends in the evening!

I would 100% recommend getting an IHM if you ever get the opportunity. Sarah is currently offering 15minute taster sessions at Quest for £15.
