#86 Jim Reales, Crystals and Energy

Jim Reales started working with gems and minerals when he was 5 years old and his grandmother sent him his first crystal.  A lot of Jim's weekends growing up were spent rock hounding with his family in and around the Colorado and New Mexico area.  What started out as a fascination with the gems and minerals turned into a full blown hobby of collecting, cutting, polishing the stones and making jewelry.  The more Jim worked with the stones the more he became fascinated with the properties and how each person's energy can be enhanced by the stones in their environment. Jim was part owner of a gem and mineral shop in North Carolina and did gem and mineral shows in the North Carolina area, he then went out on his own with his wife and they started doing gem and mineral shows across the country from North Carolina to California, collecting and selling along the way.  Jim got more interested in the energy fields that are around us and help us and  received his Reiki certificate in Colorado and taught classes in North Carolina on crystals and their properties.  While doing the gem and mineral shows Jim was able to tell clients what gem or mineral they needed to enhance their energy.  He found by being in contact with the person he was able to feel what energies belonged together.  Jim is very adamant that the mineral someone usually needs is not some expensive rare gem or mineral but one that is in the environment and easily accessible. Jim's ability is one that is self taught and one he feels he needs to share with others to help them through this transition we are all going through.  To contact Jim you can email him at vicie6235@msn.com.
