THE END OF THE ROAD
___________
As we traveled through the Hawaiian Islands in pursuit of new ways to share how to ground energy, heal hearts, and expand minds, we ended up healing ourselves.
Throughout the entire time that Timmi and I were in Hawaii, it felt as if we were driving to the end of the road. We kept seeing signs that read “End of the Road.” At first we wondered if this was a sign that something was about to end. But after further contemplation, we realized it was something completely different: We were willing to go to the end of the road to find the information that will inspire others.
We’re here to the end of the road to help you.
The spiritual path might be long and arduous, but you’ll never be traveling it alone. Mother Earth has given you many tools to help guide you. We hope we have given you a better understanding of one of her most powerful tools, her wisdom keepers—the magical and ancient energy of crystals.
AFTERWORD
___________
It’s our hope that as a society, we’ll begin to work with Mother Earth rather than against her. For millions of years, she has been evolving and adapting, ebbing and flowing. Her story lies deep within the crystals we have shown you in this book. Listen to them. Treat them with love, and they’ll do the same for you. Crystals aren’t just rocks; they’re the wisdom keepers we’ve been waiting for to remind us that we’re all a part of something bigger than ourselves. Once we remember this, there’s nothing we can’t do together.
