The Crystal Code: A Modern Guide to Crystal Healing
De-stress, recharge, and tune into your intuition with this indispensable guide to unlocking the power of crystals and creating positive change in your life.
More than just sparkly decorations, crystals are ancient objects that possess holistic healing benefits to manifest harmony, health, and connection with ourselves on a deeper level. For crystal healer Tamara Driessen, they've been part of her life since she bought a hunk of rose quartz when she was eight years old. Ever since, she's used crystals to guide and heal herself, and later, others in one-on-one client sessions and sold-out monthly workshops in London. She sees these glittering stones as cosmic technology, absorbing, transforming, and transmitting energy. Within this book she teaches us about the unique properties of 70 potent crystals--each beautifully photographed--and how to work with them, whether you're looking to quiet your mind, enliven your heart, or cleanse your living space. Find out what crystal you can use
She also includes best practices for cleansing your crystals (for the purest connection possible), programming them (so they know what you want help with), and charging them outdoors (to give them an energy boost from the elements). And whether you're a modern mystic, a newbie collector, or just crystal curious, once you've discovered which crystals are calling to you, Tamara's meditations and rituals for releasing negative energy will help you follow your intuition and shift or center your priorities.

I am a very passionate reader and i give honest reviews: here is my review
This book was a long one for me, im usually a fast reader and can finish 600 page books in 1-2 days, however it took me 4 weeks to finish this book.
I loved the information about the crystals and what everything does, but sadly that was a small part of the book near the end. it got abit repetative with the constant bringing up her workplace and sessions and talks about her clients experience that it started to feel more of an ad for her business than anything, even after finishing the A-Z info on each crystal past halfway in the book, the closing up went right back to talking about her clients experience and her sessions again
Regardless, it was a okay read, ill be using the A-Z guide to refer to whenever i need help identifying crystals and what they are used for

Very pretty hardcover and some nice pictures.
The descriptions are very brief and quite repetitive for almost every crystal though and I wish there was more evidence of the research involved. The short paragraph descriptions don't feel in-depth or explained enough so I'm not so convinced. The tone is also very informal and surface-level.
I wish there were more crystals as I was expecting a lot more.
It's still nice to have as a coffee table book and for quick references to your more basic crystals.

I usually don’t count the non-fiction books I read on my lists on Goodreads because I usually just skim through them but i’ve decided to change this, firstly because if i don’t i will never reach my goal for this year aha but also because these have been truly fascinating to me and I have learnt a lot.

A lovely guide to various crystals and healing techniques. A bit on the 'trendy side' but a beautiful book all the same. Great for beginners as it covers lots of different topics but all very briefly - a good introduction book!

Less encyclopedic and more like a workshop with a friend. I enjoyed the clean and consistent aesthetic of the layout and photography immensely. The writing was not too overly simple as many new age spiritual books are, but was very easy to read and down to earth. This is actually one of my favourite crystal books I’ve read so far. Great job wolf sister!
