  • Thank You for Shopping with Jade and Sage Waistbeads LLC How to Tie Your Waistbeads: PLEASE READ BEFORE TYING YOUR WAISTBEADS!
    Thank you for shopping with Jade and Sage Waistbeads LLC How to tie your waistbeads: PLEASE READ BEFORE TYING YOUR WAISTBEADS! Your strands will come with two slip knots on the ends. Pull the large bead to release space for your excess beads to fall. Wrap your strand around your waist or hips and gauge where you want it to fall. Wrap one end of the strand over the other, confirming that the amount of beads on your strand are perfect. If the strand is too tight, add more beads from the excess beads. If it is too loose, remove some beads from your strand. After confirming the perfect fit, tie your strand in a surgeons’ knot as indicated in Fig. 1. Double wrap your thread before pulling tight. (Not too tight as this can cause your strand to break). Make sure there are no gaps in the strand before tying the second half of the knot. Gaps in-between the beads can cause discomfort as the fine hairs on your body will get pulled by the beads. Gaps will also cause weak points in the thread, causing breakage. Once you tie that second knot, THERE IS NO GOING BACK. Be confident in the placement of your strand before finalizing this knot. Once you complete the surgeons knot, cut the anchor beads off and remove any excess beads, leaving long strands of thread. Separate the strands into pairs and tie them separately (in regular double knots). Then tie 3-4 more surgeons’ knots. This will be a semi- bulky knot, but it is necessary to create a knot that will not unravel.

  • Crystals and Psychic Abilities
    CRYSTALS AND PSYCHIC ABILITIES Crystals and Psychic Abilities: Quick Reference Guide ©Re-Creative Resources Inc. 2017 www.recreativeresources.com Hi! Thank you for downloading this free “Crystals and Psychic Abilities Quick Reference Guide”. In this manual, I share some of my favorite crystals for enhancing psychic abilities, or spiritual gifts, as I like to say! Before we continue, I would like to mention a few things that I find very important when working with crystals and psychic development. I’m basing these suggestions from my own personal experiences. I started this process back in 2012 and have hit a few bumps and turns along the way, so I feel inclined to make note of the following. CRYSTAL USE We don’t NEED crystals in order to tap into our own inner knowing. We have all we need right there inside us. Crystals, however, are wonderful tools that we can use to alter our vibration, clear our energy field, and amplify energies. It’s kind of like trying to view the beautiful mountain on a foggy day. We need to clear away the fog in order to see the glorious view. Crystals can help clear away that debris so we can tap into this aspect of ourselves. They help us to be more aware of signs and synchronicities, see from various perspectives, and see the bigger picture. Through chakra healing and balancing, we can also remove energy blockages and clear the path, which may lead to heightened spiritual awareness and enhanced psychic abilities as well. GROUNDING and EARTH STAR CHAKRA I find grounding to be crucial when developing our psychic abilities.
