Our Founders:

 

Vanessa Hui
Founder. Certified Crystal Healing Practitioner - Evolve Healing Institute (IICT & IEHA).
Aries ☼  Taurus ☽ Gemini Rising. ENFP. Gypsy soul. I love astrology, the cosmos, Feng Shui, cats and witchy stuff. I am a certified Crystal Healing Practitioner, accredited by the IICT - International Institute for Complementary Therapists and IEHA - International Energetic Healing Association.

My spiritual awakening and journey into energy consciouseness began after I lost my father and aunt to cancer in the same year. Navigating that grief brought about a dark night of the soul. As I looked for ways to heal mentally and spiritually it lead me down a rabbit hole of holistic, alternative healing and energy modalities. Having witnessed how distressing, invasive, and unnatural chemotherapy treatments were for my father I was motivated to look for natural ways of healing, especially for terminal illnesses. I became a student of energy medicine learning reiki and crystal healing and I began understand how important a healthy mind, soul, and spiritual connection is to the body’s physical healing. 


At the same time of my loss I felt deeply unfulfilled in my job. A career in luxury media I spent 10 years building felt unfulfilling and misaligned with who I really was. I regretted the time and energy I dedicated to work instead of family. Losing loved ones, in short, put things into perspective and called me to re-evaluate my purpose. I realised I could do so much more with my time and gifts. I stepped into my purpose as a healer and to be of service to others. I am now a dedicated light-worker, crystal energy healer & forever student of Energy medicine. Through The Crystal Van I hope to share the tools, knowledge and inspiration to help people find better mental, spiritual and emotional well-being.
So, thank you for being here, supporting my purpose and being a part of my journey. 

Yvan Sevic
Co-founder
Pisces. Musician. I discovered crystals thanks to Vanessa and since then I explore more every day. Being more of a logical thinking person I was skeptical about how a stone could help heal physical ailments or lift your mood. Then I tried crystal healing and it completely altered the way I saw energy. 
I believe crystals can help one's emotional, mental, and physical state and have the power to bring what you wish for if you really believe in them through intention and manifesting. That's essentially the law of attraction in force. Crystals can be used as tools to support our growth and bring balance, guidance, mindfulness, companionship or self-discovery when needed.  Whichever way you choose to use crystals - there is no doubt they can be appreciated for their beauty - they are still works of art from the earth with their own kind of magic, especially when you know you are holding a piece of mother earth that could be over a million years old.
We are here to help you the best we can to navigate and discover the world of crystals, healing, and spirituality. If you are not sure what kind of crystal you think will benefit you feel free to drop us a message anytime.
Moony the Cat
Quality control pawlice
Hi I'm Moony! I was adopted by the best hoomans ever and now I live in a witch's coven filled with so many glittery crystals. I love naps, chestnuts, chasing imaginary things, and CRYSTALS, especially my Citrine Crystal Ball. As The Crystal Van's quality control pawlice I check every crystal and package to make sure they are purrrfect before being sent to you. If you have a cat or furry friend I highly recommend adding crystals in your space - their energies speak to us on a whole other level.
If I could meet any cat in the world it would have to be Salem from Sabrina and the Teenage Witch. He's awesome!

Our Crystals:

Our crystals and gemstones are responsibly sourced via our trustworthy suppliers from around the world. We do our very best to trace our crystals and we never buy from areas of conflict or where we feel the vibe is off. We are committed to bringing high-quality crystals to you at fair and reasonable prices. We price our crystals as fairly and reasonably as possible factoring in size, weight, beauty and rarity. We want our crystals to be affordable as we believe everyone deserves to experience some crystal magic of their own.

Our Commitment:

We do our best to be as eco-friendly as possible in all of our operations. Mother Earth has gifted us with some of the most amazing crystals & minerals imaginable and we believe in honouring these gifts by choosing to be as environmentally friendly as we can. That's why we are committed to using sustainable packaging - and wherever possible, our packaging is made from recyclable, recycled or biodegradable material.

Shopping with us:

Each crystal is cleansed and activated under a full moon in The Crystal Van's sacred space. They are cleansed with the purifying sacred smoke of ceremonial sacred herbs and the vibrations of our singing bowls are used to activate them with positive intentions. We only select crystals that we feel are ready to find their new home and we may work with crystals a little longer in our space before making them available in our shop.

Although all our crystals are cleansed and charged before reaching you it is always a good idea to cleanse your crystals when you receive them. This is to activate them as your own and welcome them to your home.

You will receive your crystals beautifully packaged in our recycled and biodegradable packaging.

As each crystal is unique, please allow for slight variations in size, shape, and natural coloring as each stone is unique. Remember mother earth is the boss. 

Crystal Conditions:

Crystals are gifts from mother earth that form naturally in the ground. As they form they may develop inclusions, irregularities, or cracks. Crystals are fragile minerals to work with and during the process of cutting, polishing, and finishing (mostly by hand) dents, chips, nicks, or scratches may occur.  Crystals are rarely ever found with zero scratches or marks! Any such dents/chips/scratches on a crystal DO NOT affect its healing properties or potency. We hope you accept these crystals exactly as they are with all their beauty and (im)perfections.
 
All sales are final and we do not accept refunds so please check all the images and videos carefully before purchasing.

Crystals Energy & Metaphysics

Quantum physicists believe that everything is energy and frequency. When we are around crystals our energy levels balance, harmonise or are amplified. This is because crystals have the ability to alter and raise our vibrations due to their consistent crystalline structure and frequency. In contrast, the frequency of humans’ energy field is random and turbulent as we go through our thoughts and emotions, high to low, happy to sad, 0-100 real quick. When we work with crystals they share their positive, stable and consistent frequency to us - which balance our state of being and bring some calm to our internal energetic chaos.

 What is Crystal Healing & Crystal Therapy?

Crystal therapy has been used for centuries to help treat the mind, body & soul  holistically. These prized minerals dates back to Egyptian times when they were said to be used to purge ‘evil spirits' prmote youth & beauty and carried as talismans for protection.

These days, thanks to new age spirituality has brought a resurgence of crystal therapy and has gained a much bigger following from those looking to heal their body naturally and adopt all round wellbeing.

The belief behind crystal therapy is that individual stones have the ability to affect the energy flow of the human body and help to realign the energetic centres or channels and encourage the bodys naturalt healing abilities to heal itself. Crystals with specific properties are said to help to relieve specific ailments such as anxiety, depression and insomnia, or more physical ailments such as digestive problems, headaches and fertility issues.

Crystal therapy can be as simple as wearing precious stones and minerals as jewellery, carrying them with you in your pocket. Placing crystals in the room where you work and sleep, meditating with them, using crystals in ritual, or being treated by a crystal therapist, who can identify which stones can best work with your own energy.
