Allayah welcomes Nicholas Pearson. His work with the mineral kingdom – in its archetypal roles as facilitators of evolution and spiritual growth – will serve as the basis from which Allayah and Nicholas will delve into the mysteries of crystal skulls carved in the remote Himalayan mountains. They will also explore the cultural and shamanic traditions of jade around the globe, as well as Nicholas’s own personal experience with jade. Allayah will investigate such questions as: what inspired Nicholas to apply the science of the mineral kingdom to his spiritual outlook on working with crystals; how did the idea of “crystal archetypes” develop; and how did Nicholas begin working with crystal skulls. These questions and more will be covered!

About Guest Nicholas Pearson

Nicholas Pearson is author of the upcoming book Crystal Teachings: The Mystery Teachings of the Mineral Kingdom. He has devoted twenty years to his work with rocks and minerals, and weaves together the fields of mineral science with spirituality and healing in the art of ethnogeology. Nicholas strives to bridge the human and mineral kingdoms by studying the relationships between the two. His experience in the field includes work as docent and collections specialist of a mineral and earth-science museum, as well as working hands-on with crystals for healing. He teaches innovative workshops that enable participants to understand what the mineral kingdom offers from all aspects.

Nicholas is the caretaker of two ancient crystals skulls, one from Nepal and one from Mongolia. His research and study with the skulls has afforded the opportunity to study several notable skulls up-close, as well as collaborating with many other members of the community. Nicholas unites spirit and science together to better examine the function and purpose fulfilled by the crystal skulls.

The forthcoming title on crystals encompasses a broad range of applications of the mineral kingdom. The target of this work is to deepen the understanding of spiritual work with crystals and gemstones by examining the stones at the archetypal level. Each chapter is dedicated to a comprehensive study of a gemstone revered universally throughout human history, and the history, science, and lore of each stone is combined in a unique perspective on co-creating with crystals. Rather than providing information in a context of which stone heals which ailment, Crystal Teachings seeks to empower the reader to become acquainted with crystals on more than just a cursory level. The allure of gemstones and crystals has pervaded the entirety of human history, and science is only now unlocking the secrets of how crystals can have their effects upon us. In light of this, Nicholas has spent a significant amount of time studying neolithic jades from Asia, as well as jade from other cultures, both modern and ancient. The allure of this heavenly gemstone is thoroughly detailed in his book, as are several other noteworthy gemstones.

In addition to working with gemstones, Nicholas is a Reiki master/teacher. He has studied in North America and in Japan, and his focus is on the return to the roots of Reiki. Nicholas strives to inspire students to engage the five principles of Reiki as tools for navigating through life. Currently he resides and practices in Central Florida with his partner, and he is available for workshops worldwide.
