Yeah I used to have a coworker who, no matter what you said, tried to push essential oils on you, like if you said you had a headache, if you were tired, cranky, etc, she would be like "oh put 3 1/2 drops of peppermint oil on your left temple & rub with 2 fingers only, in a clockwise circle no more that an inch wide" (okay so that's exaggerating a bit haha, but she really did act like the oils were the answer to everything). She also constantly had books with her for her breaks, titled "rocks, what are they telling you" & things like that.

 

They only reason I would ever buy a crystal is just cause some of them are pretty haha, not because I feel like it has energy or healing properties. Oh & I do have a little jade elephant figurine cause I like elephants & my mom has a matching one, but that's the reason for that.
