Jewellery ritual


why i stopped wearing jewelry

Jewelry is the last thing you buy and the first thing you sell - Chinese proverb

My old routine: daily jewellery

  • an Agate oval ring
  • an Amazonite oval ring
  • a twisted bangle
  • a coral colored ring (slightly heavier, only on vacation)
But over the last few years, I don't wear them anymore; one of the reasons is that I have to clean/disinfect them when I got home... on top of anything else....

I avoid buying precious stones and metals because

  • of "blood diamond": the trade in precious metals and stones has been linked to illicit financial flows, corruption, smuggling, drug trafficking, illicit arms trafficking, and the financing of terrorism...
  • any type of resource extraction is harmful to the planet
  • the toxic chemicals used in the mining of precious metals are, of course, not only harmful to the environment but especially to the local workers
  • they need to be cleaned carefully and regularly

Lithotherapy

Some don't only keep us safe from illness or any other physical harm but they can also help us avoid negative energies and they do absorb negative energy, so need regular cleansing.
But for the reasons mentioned above, they are very bad Feng Shui.

Amazonite
  • known as the gambler's stone, encouraging good luck and fortune
  • has a soothing effect on the nervous system and brain, so has an anti-anxiety and calming effect; helps fight against states of sadness.
  • promote health and happiness
  • symbolizes compassion, love, forgiveness, and empathy
  • is also a good energy filter, blocking geopathic stress as well as electromagnetic pollution emitted from computers, microwaves, or cell phones
Agate
  • harmonize yin and yang energies, it brings a sense of wholeness
  • a very light and comforting energy; helps boost happiness, brings the feeling of comfort and of security and peace
  • eliminates and transforms negative energy by purifying and stabilizing the aura

Sautéed potatoes, Grandma's way

Image
If you don't like potatoes, you cannot be trusted I love starchy food , cereal grains and some root vegetables.  I love potato : air fryer or oven chips, baked, Dauphinoise, curry, mash, roasted, salad,... and of course sautéed, very easy and simple. Potatoes, one of the most versatile vegetables, provide essential nutrients like fibre, vitamins (vitamin C, B6...), and minerals (potassium, iron, phosphorus, magnesium...). Ingredients 1 tbsp grapeseed or rapseed oil * 2 potatoes, cut into rings each, about 5 mm salt, pepper 1 garlic clove, minced herbs, finely chopped (chives, or parsley or thyme) Preparation Heat the oil in a large frying pan, add the potatoes and fry over a medium-high heat, turning them occasionally until they begin to brown.  The edges are crispy. Then add pepper, parsley, and stir for a few seconds. *  I'm going to stop using olive oil : first, it is more and more expensive and above all,  olive oil scams  are proliferating if it is not...
