How to Use Sunstone to Beat Burnout and Fatigue

By Kristen Brown

Burnout and deep fatigue are a real challenge in today’s overscheduled and constantly changing world. Whether caused by true over-work, a healing body or brain, or too much routine and sameness, it’s important to take steps to soothe and uplift the body, mind, and spirit. One powerful way to give yourself an energetic kick is to use Sunstone. This orange and glittery crystal targets your creativity, passion, and inner drive that needs to be turned on when you’re tired or fried.

Here are three powerful benefits of using Sunstone:

  1. Fatigue: When you wake up in the morning, do a quick Sunstone Meditation by envisioning orange light flooding your body down to the cellular level. Holding a Sunstone in one or both hands, create a circuit of energy to wake you up and propel you into your day. Breathe in and out through your mouth to stimulate your energy and get your body activated.
  2. Burnout: If you’re feeling drained or uninspired, set a piece of Sunstone in front of you with a candle and do a 10-minute journaling session. Write about your favorite memory, a big goal, your ideal day off, or other inspiring topics to turn on your feel-good energy and wake up your inner drive. For bonus energy, share your writing with another person to create a connection that gets you motivated.
  3. Boredom: When life feels stuck or has too much sameness it can exhaust the spirit and drain the body and mind. When this happens, it’s time for a Sunstone Spirit Bath! Go outside with a Sunstone Crystal and look at the glinting of the sun on the stone. Imagine those glittery specks expanding out and merging with your own energy field. Then take a 10+ minute walk while breathing deep to activate your physical body. This floods you with endorphins and interrupts the “bored” mindset keeping you stuck. When you’re bored it’s time to MOVE!

A powerful crystal that can boost your vitality, Sunstone gives you that extra spark you need when you’re tired or burnt out. It makes a perfect crystal to have on hand at work or home, and a wonderful gift for others too. It’s not only filled with good energy, but gorgeous to have on display.

Eye-Ear Connection Plays Major Role in Proprioception

Eye-Ear Connection Plays Major Role in Proprioception

By Deborah Zelinsky, O.D. “Vestibular information is integrated with proprioceptive and other sensory inputs to generate our sense of motion,” say authors of a recent study published in a 2021 issue of Current Opinion in Physiology (https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cophys.2020.12.001). This explains why patients with vestibular sensory loss or other vestibular impairments find “everyday activities like walking” to […]

  • Neuro fatigue is beyond tired, it’s when you’re brain says “I’ve had enough” and shuts down everything. It often a sneaks up on you when you least expect it, making it hard to manage. 

If you’ve never experienced it, it’s truly hard to understand. But please believe us when we tell you we’re done and need to rest. And that rest may look different for everyone. Some may need a nap. Some may just need a quiet space. There’s no right or wrong way to rest.

  • A traumatic brain injury is the ultimate “invisible injury” as no one can see what’s happening inside your brain. Even imaging doesn’t show a TBI (unless you have bleeding or severe trauma). It’s impossible to explain to others, and even doctors don’t take us seriously or know how to help us. 

It is incredibly frustrating to go through life being told “there’s nothing we can do. You’ll just have to give it more time and see what happens” and even more frustrating when you find out that there are doctors out there who truly DO know how to help us!  Like @integratedbraincenters

  • I remember how I would literally need to lay down after taking a shower because it was so exhausting. And something like going to the grocery store and bringing them in and putting them away would require me to do nothing else for the rest of the day. It was a one-chore kind of activity. 

These are normal, every day things we take for granted before brain injury, and afterwards they require soooo much energy and effort. It’s truly hard for someone who hasn’t experienced a brain injury to understand. 💚

Is it gonna be easy? Nope. 
Is it gonna be worth it? Absolutely!

  • I remember folks would talk to me and my brain would take forever to process what they were saying. They would be into the next subject and I’d still be trying to decipher their first sentence. It was frustrating and exhausting. 

Friends would tell me to “try harder” and concentrate. But that’s not how it works with brain injury. 

It’s like if you drop your laptop and scramble it’s processor.

Recovery as defined in the dictionary is a return to a normal state of health, mind, or strength. 

Missing from this definition is that recovery is a continuum. We often hear in recovery post surgery that a patient is a percent recovered (Sue is 80% recovered post hip replacement) demonstrating that recovery is not an all or nothing situation but is rather a spectrum. 

Not everyone will make a 100% recovery but most people can move forward in their recovery in some way, even if it is only 10% or 70%. 

To say that recovery is not possible in any capacity is probably untrue. The more severe the injury the more likely you will never be the same person you were prior, but that does not mean that you can’t get back to doing the things you love and contribute to your family and community.

  • No two brain injuries are the same, therefore, no two recoveries are the same. Don’t compare yours against someone else’s, as you never know what they’ve already gone through. 

Focus on YOU and your recovery. What could you try differently? What should you maybe give up? I personally gave up alcohol and gluten and that was huge for me and my inflammation.

  • I know one of the biggest lessons I had to learn from my TBI was asking for help. 

It wasn’t something I was used to, and the first few friends I asked laughed at me, which made it even harder to try again. 

But it was a beautiful lesson for me — as someone who is fiercely independent it is important to ask for help when I need it it — in allll areas of my life. 

What was your biggest lesson from TBI?
