In today’s episode I chat to Merle O’Grady, Irish jewellery designer and crystal specialist, about all things crystals. This episode is particularly helpful for anyone who may want to start working with crystals but don’t know where to begin. Having worked with gemstones and crystals every day as a jewellery designer since 2008, Merle turned to them for their healing properties before the birth of her daughter 6 years ago. Since then she has qualified as a Crystal Therapy Practitioner and now crystals are central to Merle’s work and everything she creates. Merle loves to show people how to incorporate crystals into their life in a practical, accessible way, removing the overwhelm and confusion she experienced when beginning her own journey with crystals. Through her kits, jewellery, courses and workshops her aim is to empower others to become their own crystal experts, experiencing the powerful changes in energy and mindset that can come about when you bring these beautiful energetic helpers into your life. You can check out all of Merle’s gorgeous offerings on her website www.merleogrady.com or connect with Merle on Instagram @merleogradystudio.
