My world was upside down and then I got the bracelets.
My chi balanced.
My energy came back along with my long-lost creativity.
Peace descended on my soul and laughter became a part of me again.
Thank you, Vanessa, for your amazing magic.
Blessed be dear girl.

I started my journey looking for something to help me with memory. I ordered Casuarina and Escudo Negro, just because I knew I should have a protection bracelet when I made my first order. I unlike a lot, don’t suffer from depression, no trauma and I have a great love for myself. I had a very blessed upbringing, two parents who loved and guided me very well. However, I work in a very stressful environment where I have to be a strong leader. I am the Program Director of a girls group home. They are 11-18 and they have done nothing to deserve the life their parents put them through. Some have been sexually, emotionally or physically abused, some were abandoned or just plain neglected. A lot of their parents are drug addicts or are mentally ill. So, with that comes so much early childhood trauma. They act out in ways not even they understand. I have 6 strong young women for staff, however no matter how good the day is, it’s a hard job. Being a “mom” to 10 girls at once for an 8 hour shift is difficult and emotionally exhausting. We laugh with them, cry with them and teach them every day. We role model as best as we can, but we are all humans and have our own home lives, children, money issues, relationship issues etc. So, I started to look to the bracelets to help me not absorb the trauma and negativity I deal with every day (Escudo Negro, Yareth & Musgosa). I have so many bracelets that have helped motivate me (Tortuga & Chakras) helped me sleep (Darla & Mora and sometimes Vica). I had a time where I was under so much stress for a long period of time at work I used (Algarrobo, Desierto Rojo, Strong and especially Luz de Noche) I have learned how to use them and depending on the day, I use my intuition and let it guide me to what I should wear. I look to (Luza) to help me say the right things to my staff when they need redirection. I love to wear (Resurrection) when I need help with my personal relationships at home. And when and if I’m feeling down on myself I look to (Love & Roma & Loving Mexico) Sometimes I only wear 2 other days I wear both arms full of 10 each. Vanessa will take the time to listen to what it is you are looking for. She has even asked for pictures of my daughter and her fiancee in order to get a feeling of what it is they really need. She will not try to sell you the most expensive, rather what she will recommend what you need. She has even sent my grandson a baby bracelet of Mexican Gold (Amber) for his very bad teething months. When I wanted to purchase Felicia for my daughter, she told me to wait, it was going to be on discount the next day. You must believe if in them if you truly want them to work. I love this journey which is nearing a year long now and I love Vanessa, she is a beautiful soul put on this Earth to help others. I hope you enjoy and cherish your bracelets as much as I have mine and I very much look forward to continuing my journey as every day is a new day with new problems and new beautiful blessings.

Throughout one’s lifetime, various experiences and encounters help define an individual. Being introduced to Ilumina Stones has been one of those defining experiences for me. I have relied on my spiritual beliefs to manage life’s ups and downs for many years; however, I had not realized God had given us powerful tools for growth and wellbeing in the form of crystals and stones until Vanessa Espinosa became a part of my life. It has only been one year since I was given my first Ilumina Stones bracelet, but the significant changes that have taken place in my life over the course of the year are amazing. I have been able to review past challenges and mistakes and make peace with them. I am now connected to a spiritual realm I did not know was available to me. I experience more in depth meditation. I have greater courage and I have hope. I connect and communicate with others more effectively. I believe in good fortune and the many positive possibilities for my life. Most importantly, I am excited for the growth that is yet to come in my life.

Thank you, Ilumina Stones, for the beautiful and powerful bracelets. Thank you, Vanessa Espinosa, for the wisdom and guidance you have shared with me and so many others. This world is blessed to have you. Blessings

I found Illumina Stones close to a year ago. I’ve always believed in the energy of what comes from our earth to help heal and restore.

I had two friends going through really rough transitions in life…hard times.

My first order was for them (maybe they will give their testimonials!)

They loved the bracelets and the meaning behind them… And then they felt the energy from those stones and the support of that energy.

After I witnessed the energy and healing that the stones encouraged.

I ordered a bracelet for all 3 of us. carnelian.

We all felt her energy. Carnelian folks! She gives you some spunk.

And there we go…

Personally and most profoundly…

I was having significant pain in my joints (fingers and knees). I asked Vanessa about it …if there were stones to help. she created Julie.

I already had Own (I have autoimmune disorders)…I paired them together. They are the dynamic duo.

I wear them pretty much all the time.

My pain and inflammation as significantly subsided.

Of course I am now a loyal customer… the bracelets are exquisite jewelry with a purpose.

Vanessa selects the stones and creates the jewelry that helps to balance and fortify our energies as we go through what life throws at us.

Thank you Ilumina Stones… Vanessa

It is with SUCH pleasure that I comment here about Illumina stones and all of my beautiful bracelets ! I am such a fan…these bracelets have actually made a measurable difference in my life ; I feel a sense of calm that I have not often felt, and my chronic pain is far more tolerable ! Mostly, though, my overall mindset has improved in the sense that I am less stressed and ABLE TO HANDLE the everyday stresses in a much better fashion- calmly, rationally and with less emotion. I actually feel better prepared to handle ALL that we each have to endure on a daily basis…that is pretty wonderful ! I am in better control of my own behaviors and this is very freeing, indeed.

I thank you, Vanessa, for coming into my life…I always say that people do not come into our lives “ by accident “, but rather they are MEANT to be in our lives…I am grateful for the power of these beautiful bracelets and I am equally grateful for having such a special new friend.
