Happy Fall lovelies~ Welcome to my first Quarterly Newsletter! My hope is that this outreach will serve not only as a contact point between us, but as a tool to help educate you on all sorts of holistic topics and to share updates on Crystalline Wellness. Moreover, I will continue to share my own healing journey with you and invite you to do the same—we are not alone in our struggles (or successes!) and I am here in service of you, cheering you on so you can bloom exactly as you want to. Take a peek at the information provided and see where it leads you! Autumn is in full swing and I personally welcome the changes during this time of year. The gorgeous colors of the trees, the cooler temperatures, and the upcoming holiday season fill me with a sense of excitement for not only the impending celebrations, but also for a fresh start and renewal. While a “fresh start” can happen at any moment, there is something therapeutic about a sensory representation of change that helps your body and mind better prepare for it. We may mourn the loss of the summer sun and all that the particular season brings with it but we have the chance to re-evaluate our lives and shift as needed. We too can allow ourselves to shed our proverbial leaves and turn our energy inward, processing all the lessons that the previous few months have taught us. I was forced to slow down this year, focusing not just on my physical and emotional health, but also figuring out how to balance my various roles in life. Building a business with two young children isn’t easy but I was reminded, many times and in many ways, that the less I try to control a situation, the better off I’d be. No matter how hard I try to fix, change, or make better, there are just some situations that I am unable to affect. I now often say to myself: not my circus, not my monkeys. Maybe this idea of “letting go” is something that comes with age but I will admit, it’s easier now that I have done the hard work of figuring out traumas from my past, both self-inflicted and involuntary. However I got here, I am grateful for the lessons I’ve learned, the boundaries that I have been able to develop and behaviors, my own and of others, that I am able to better navigate. I am still a work in progress but it’s never too late to become who you want to become. It’s never too late to make things work better, to shift with the seasons, to educate yourself and continue your soul growth. And as we enter into a season filled with darkness and coldness, never forget that light and warmth will follow. When it does, will you be the same as you were before? Or will you have bloomed even bigger? I have many exciting opportunities in the works and I hope you join me on this journey. Together, we can help heal ourselves and in turn, heal the world around us. I look forward to connecting with you more in the months ahead. With love and gratitude, Karen |

New Intuitive Reiki Session Time & Service Fee in 2023 Crystalline Wellness was created to support and empower women in finding actionable ways to discover their voice, their inner strength, and most importantly, the self-love and self-acceptance they deserve. This mission has been the cornerstone of my business and I am so proud of all the hard work my clients have put into their healing journeys. Seeing them make necessary shifts to achieve more balance in their lives has been exhilarating and life changing for all involved. I am truly honored to be a part of their growth. With that being said, I too am striving to find more balance in life—and in scheduling time with my family—so I am modifying the structure of my Intuitive Reiki Sessions. Starting January 1st, 2023, my 90-minute Intuitive Reiki session time will increase to 120-minutes, which is more in line with the time I already spend with individual clients. The rate will also increase to $85 per session. Should you have any questions, please don't hesitate to reach out. |
