Well, let me tell you, sugar, I was skeptical at first. I mean, who’d have thought that putting pretty rocks in a water bottle could make a lick of difference? But, bless my soul, was I wrong.
I was introduced to the idea of this DIY crystal water bottle from a website, Buddha & Karma. It seemed like an interesting concept, infusing your water with the unique energy and healing properties of crystals. So, I thought, why not? I’m a curious cat, always have been, and I thought this might be something worth trying.
So, I picked out my crystals based on what I felt I needed most in my life. As an older lady, energy isn’t always my best friend, so I chose Citrine and Carnelian. Citrine, the stone of abundance and manifestation, and Carnelian, which boosts vitality, motivation, and creativity. I figured, what could it hurt, right?
Then I prepared my crystal water bottle, careful to ensure it was clean and safe. I made sure to cleanse and charge my chosen crystals with my intentions. I wanted vitality, energy, and a zest for life. I infused my water with these crystal darlings, all the while focusing on my intentions and visualizing the positive energy flowing from the crystals into the water.
Then, the real test came – drinking it. Every time I took a sip, I made sure to practice gratitude and mindfulness, focusing on my intentions and letting the energy of the crystals work their magic. And you know what? It was like drinking a glass of sunshine. I felt more energized, more motivated, and I even started to lose weight. I think the increased energy made me more active, and that helped me shed a few pounds.
Now, don’t you think for one moment that this is some magic cure-all. I still eat my greens and get my steps in. But, this crystal-infused water has added a little pep to my step, a bit of twinkle in my eye. I feel more in tune with my body and my needs, which has helped me make healthier choices overall.
So, my darlings, that’s my story. I started with a hint of skepticism and a dash of curiosity, and I ended up with a new daily ritual that’s changed my life for the better. I’ve even shed some weight, all thanks to my DIY crystal water bottle. As far as I’m concerned, it’s a tale of transformation and proof that you can teach an old dog new tricks.
Final thoughts
Making a crystal-infused water bottle yourself, while rewarding, can be a time-consuming process. It involves carefully selecting your crystals based on your needs and intentions, cleansing and charging them, preparing your water bottle, and then infusing the water with the crystals. This process requires not only time but also a certain level of knowledge about the different types of crystals and their properties.
On the other hand, purchasing a pre-made crystal-infused water bottle, such as the one from Buddha & Karma, is much more convenient. Such products are usually made with food-grade materials that are safe to use and designed with a removable chamber to prevent the crystals from directly touching the water, which is particularly important as some crystals can release toxic substances when immersed in water.
These bottles often come pre-filled with a selection of crystals that are chosen for their specific beneficial properties, taking out the guesswork of choosing the right crystals for you. This can be a significant advantage, especially if you’re new to crystal healing and aren’t familiar with the different types of crystals and their uses.
Additionally, buying a ready-made crystal-infused water bottle can save you the time and effort of having to cleanse and charge the crystals yourself, as they should come already cleansed and charged, ready for use.
In conclusion, while making your own crystal-infused water bottle can be a rewarding experience, buying a pre-made one can save you time and effort, making it a more convenient choice.
