Crystal Breathing is a calming practice from Blue Hissy Highness and the Magical Stones.

Hi, I’m Julie Taylor, aka Jewel Daisy. Crystal breathing has a magical ability to calm the nervous system. It’s a simple practice of holding a stone, gazing at it, and breathing with intention to calm the mood.

In the story, Blue Hissy Highness learns crystal breathing from Coyote. Part of the magic of the scene is to inspire kids (and grown-ups) to slow down, notice their feelings, and shift their mood...just like Blue Hissy Highness.

Also in the book, on the last page, is a super-simple guide for crystal breathing, just like Blue Hissy Highness. It’s part of how I personally connect with stones and to help me stay true to the mood that I choose.

Crystal breathing is one wave of the magic from the story. With each read and reader, the magic ripples…a breath, a stone, a story to lead you on a journey to a mood you choose.
