Curious about crystals but not sure where to start?
Join us for a fun and relaxed introduction to the wonderful world of crystals. We'll explore crystal energy and the different ways people work with crystals, from their traditional and spiritual uses to simply enjoying their beauty and meaning.
You'll be introduced to some of the most common crystals and discover what each one is traditionally associated with. We'll look at practical ways to use crystals in everyday life, including carrying them with you, placing them in your home or workspace, using them during meditation and creating your own crystal rituals.
Susan will also show you how to care for your crystals, including simple ways to cleanse, recharge and store them safely. Whether you already have a crystal collection or have never owned one before, this workshop is a chance to explore, ask questions and discover which crystals you feel drawn to. No previous knowledge is needed - just bring your curiosity.
Susan Currie from Optimise Overflow will be the facilitator for this session.

Meet Your Facilitator:
Susan opened Optimise Therapies with the intention of building her practice from a purely scientific and evidence-based foundation, training in a range of massage modalities. During this time she encountered many people working with energy, but initially remained sceptical and often dismissed the idea. That changed when, during a particularly stressful period in her life a Reiki practitioner persuaded her to experience Reiki for herself. During the treatment, the practitioner placed a piece of citrine crystal underneath the treatment couch. From that moment Susan's curiosity about crystals was sparked and she quickly became fascinated by them. Her very first crystal purchase was a rough piece of citrine, remarkably similar to the one used during the Reiki treatment. Before long, her collection began to grow. The more crystals she found herself being naturally drawn to, the more she wanted to understand them, leading her to research their properties and traditional uses. Today Susan is a Reiki Master and incorporates crystals into both her Reiki practice and her personal life. What begun as a curiosity has developed into a genuine passion, with crystals now playing a fundamental part in her lifestyle and holistic practice.
