WHO & WHY

 
 

Piece of Peace was created out of a labor of self-love that lead me on a journey to find peace at all costs. 2015 was one of the darkest, most enlightening years of my life. I remember being so depressed and anxious all of the time that I couldn’t do a thing. I didn’t want to be around anyone but my parents and siblings. I wasn’t sleeping at all, which ultimately affected every part of my life. Aside from insomnia, I suffered migraines, rapid weight gain, paranoia, and just unhappiness. I was hiding behind a smile that I didn’t feel most days. I buried myself under my covers in the darkness, read books and wrote in my journal, because that was the only thing I enjoyed doing. The only thing I felt like putting energy towards. 

That year I decided to make changes in my life and went searching for natural sleep remedies that could calm my racing mind, spirit, and help me sleep better. Initially, I was going to a popular store in the mall to buy essential oils. I’d read up on all types of essential oil mixes that would calm my anxiety and help me sleep better. They worked. However, the more I visited the store, the more interested I became in trying out crystals. 

I researched endlessly on how crystals worked and even spoke with different people I saw purchasing crystals in the stores I frequented. When I was ready, I went in the store to shop with intention. I knew that I still needed something that would help calm my nerves, treat my insomnia, and bring me peace. My top goal for that year was to protect my peace at all costs. I just wanted to live a happy, peaceful life. So I began collecting calming stones for my healing. The first set of stones I’d purchased was Amethyst, Selenite, and Hematite. 

From that moment on, I collected countless calming stones to meditate with, carry around, wear as jewelry, and place them in different areas of my home. Crystals help bring a calmness to my life that I had been missing for awhile. After launching a blog where I preached and preached about protecting your peace, I started to receive questions about things I did to protect my own peace. 

Everyone began to ask me about the crystals I was seen with often. I wore wire wrapped crystals, they were around my home, at my desk at work, in my purse, and even in my car. The more I shared my journey, the more compelled I felt to bring Piece of Peace to life.

It started as a healing journey for myself that I spoke about publicly and turned into something I wanted to share with everyone. I hope the products on this site bring everyone who purchases a piece of peace in such a chaotic world.
