    Michael Gienger

    Michael Gienger (1964-2014) was one of Europe’s most respected experts on crystals and their uses, a field in which he had been active since 1988. He started collecting minerals in 1972, and in 1985 a successful self-treatment with healing crystals inspired him to pursue further training as an alternative healing practitioner. He was trained in shiatsu and completed a two-year apprentice in shamanic healing. He went on to author more than 20 publications, a number of which have become standard works in their field and have been translated into 11 languages.

      Twelve Essential Healing CrystalsYour First Aid Manual for PreventingAnd Treating Common AilmentsFrom Allergies to Toothacheby Michael GiengerThis 62 page little ditty has completely captured my heart. Small enough to fit in my purse, it really gets right down to the nitty gritty when it comes to what stones to have and use on a regular basis for optimal health on all levels. The format is simplicity its self, it shows eye-catching pictures of each stone then talks about how they can help us and then lists the other stones that can help also. I found the info to be easy to understand and to the point. My new mini buddy has handily made it into my 2014 spiritual toolbox. I would recommend it to anyone, anywhere, anytime. Thanks Michael, the world so needs you.Love & Light,RIki Frahmann

    Healing crystals: a pocket pharmacy

    For over thirty years crystal healing has proved to be a practical natural therapy that can be employed even by non-professionals. Healing crystals are relatively easy to use and yet offer a wide range of options for the treatment of everyday ailments and many illnesses; they can provide support through certain phases in life or simply improve our well-being.

    But which stones should we choose from the huge range of healing crystals available? Which are used most frequently and which are particularly effective? Which stones should we pack when we go on holiday? Which will be useful, practical and light?

    This handbook answers all these questions and more, and introduces you to twelve key healing crystals in twelve chapters, arranged by application. The twelve essential healing crystals have been selected to embrace all the major ailments and illnesses and are regularly used in a range of treatments.

    Concise, compact and yet comprehensive, this book is a source of practical and accessible advice and will be helpful in a wide variety of circumstances and life events. The twelve crystals deliver a ‘portable selection’ (in terms of both budget and size) that will never let you down whether you are on your travels or at home. Our selection makes this book a very effective ‘pocket pharmacy’.

    The motto ‘achieving a great deal with a few crystals’ has been associated with the author Michael Gienger since the very beginning of his career as a crystal healer. It makes sense for professional healers to have a large selection of healing crystals for every occasion, but for individuals or families the exact opposite is the case. The key is to find a small selection that is easy to manage and produces reliable effects. Twelve Essential Healing Crystals contains that selection. May it improve the health of us all!

    Allergies and rashes

    If we are exposed to certain pressures and irritants over a period of time, or to a sudden excessive irritant, our bodies may respond by overreacting. A small trigger, which may well be the straw that breaks the camel’s back, can be followed by a powerful reaction! Very different factors may have loaded the ‘camel’ to breaking point, but when the tipping point is reached, even something relatively trivial can be too much.

    This is exactly how allergies are created. If our bodies are exposed to certain influences over long periods of time, or if we are suddenly confronted with an excess of toxic influences that can be
