Purposefully Beautiful

A good practice during the New Year's holiday is to reflect on the past and make good intentions for the future, so that we may let go of what is outdated and make room for whatever good awaits us. Everyone has a different ritual to ring in the New Year. Some of us toast with friends and relatives, while others clean house. Yet almost everyone makes affirmations of health and wellness at the beginning of every year. We at Lily Lotus support all healing modalities and are always looking for ways to bring that awareness into the walls of our boutique. In addition to practicing yoga, meditation, and sustainability, we're fortunate enough to be blessed with an abundance of local jewelry designers, each of whom uses a variety of healing gemstones. This month, Jewelry by Justine is offering 2 black Tahitian pearl necklaces--one with labradorite and the other with smoky quartz. Refer to our gem guide below to see how wearing these pieces will help you be purposefully beautiful. We have many types of gems and jewels available at the store. Come by, and we will be happy to help you pick a piece that will help bring you beautifully and purposefully into the new year!

Pearl: Pearl helps the wearer achieve advancing states of wisdom while helping to receive spiritual guidance. Pearls are known as symbols of purity and innocence. Pearls are maternal in nature and therefore aid in childbearing and fertility.

Labradorite: Labradorite protects the wearers aura, keeping it clear from outside influences. It's also helps us use our intuition in practical ways. It is also said to improve faith and reliance on oneself.

Smoky Quartz: Smoky Quartz is grounding and helps to dissolve negative energy and therefore acts as a protector to the wearer. It allows positive energy to come through the wearer while helping with depression, stress, and nightmares. It can be useful in aiding PMS.
