About this episode

In this episode of the I Can’t Sleep Podcast, drift off while learning about the fascinating world of crystals. Before reading this article, I hadn’t given much thought to crystals, but now I’m eager to explore their deeper meanings and uses. Beyond their ability to form beautiful shapes and serve as decorative pieces, crystals hold much more significance. I’m especially intrigued by how imperfections in their structure can create unique variations and beauty—like how a slight change in a diamond’s atomic structure can give it a stunning blue hue. Fascinating, right? Oops, I might be getting too excited about this (ahem) boring topic. Happy sleeping!
