Amber and Amethyst Although these are not the most exciting and rare crystals to be working with, they are both very powerful and can help facilitate healing on many levels. When it comes to my crystals, I am guilty of overlooking the more common ones and searching for those rare beauties - I am very skilled at over-complicating things! so...why did I choose these stones? the answer is one I am sadly ashamed to admit. Amethyst and Amber both work well for people trying to overcome addiction. About 6 months ago I began smoking again (after 6 years plus smoke free) - it is amazing how stressful digging up past trauma can be! However, I really need to quit again because I am beginning to feel the effects physically. My smoking has been hard on my darling Faye too. She has experienced a lot of loss in her life, where the effects of smoking were involved. Consequently my smoking really worries her. I don't like to upset her so I am hoping my stones and I can kick the habit again! I have a horribly addictive personality, I always have done as you can imagine from my introduction post. This is the very reason that I tend to stay away from all substances/alcohol. When its hard being caught up in your own head and painful thoughts, any mind-altering substance can seem more attractive in times of distress. That is the very reason I got caught up with drugs and alcohol as a teenager - to escape the torment of my own thoughts. I would be lying if I said I never missed it; there is something to be said for the feeling of total emotional freedom, however short lived. That is not how life is now that I am an Adult, a Parent, a Fiancè and a Professional; all roles that I take very seriously. Given the choice I would not go backward, and I sure as hell will not let a flaming white stick control my life and take time away from my family and I. My stones and I are ready to tackle this little hurdle - we have made it through worse! wish me luck <3 My Bunny Crystal Life xxx
