The PROCESS
 Hi, I’m Francesca,
Chief Visionary Officer
and designer at Giardinoblu
Jewellery Milan.

I wrote this guide because I see

that most of the people think that
jewelry is just about fashion, look
or anyhow something OUTside
of yourself.

I think it’s quite the opposite.

Wearing jewelry that really vibrates

in us is part of the daily journey for
growing because it contributes to
build our self identity and how we
see ourself.
+plus, choosing the right jewel can
helps to overcome energetic blocks
and anhance authentic beauty.

In fact I belive that jewelry is 80%

vibe and 20% style, I’ll show you
why in this guide.

Enjoy the journey of growing

with jewelry that you really love!
 FIRST NOTE:

Listening to one of your most powerful gift:

EMPATHY
In this age we’re constantly overwhelmed by images, voices, sounds...
our senses are over stressed!

On the other hand, you can’t listen to everything. All the information is
too much of a burden for our conscious body/mind.
That’s why we have learned to walk past without listening and this has
become a habit that sometimes brings stress and anxiety.

You need to resume one of your main powers to be more present and
live life more fully: EMPATHY.
I know you’re good at beacause women are natural empathy teachers.

That’s why you’re able to feel better

than others.

Experiencing empathy means understand different lives, expanding

and enriching our body/mind with new feelings and meanings.
And yes, you can experience empathy with anything you want, not
just with people. Think about a piece of art for example!

Have you never been one of the prophets of the Sistine Chapel or a
star in a Van Gogh’s night?
Or maybe you have been the whole piecnot just a single portion,
haven’t you?
I know that sometimes it’s nice and sometimes it’s not, but that’s be-
cause we just have to master our super powers, like every super hero
does!

THE GUIDE TO RISE - EMPATHY

Everything in the Universe
has a dark
and a bright side.

Choosing and expanding

the path that makes
you feel good is your
responsability.

Here’s where Beauty

meets Duty.

That’s the only way that enhance your

authentic beauty and overall well-being
(not what you see an magazines).
 SECOND NOTE:

I want you listen more what “makes you feel good”

WHY?
Listening more to what “makes you feel good” is crucial for well-being
because what we love affects on 3 basic levels:

Mental Wellness:
you feel that your mind expands immediately when you touch, see or
smell something that you love.
Thoughts are formed more easily and you are able to translate them
into words with enthusiasm, thus freeing your real “you”.

Physical Wellness:
when you touch something that you love you feel your shoulders
more relaxed.
The breathing is deeper and light.

Spiritual Wellness:
everything that happens on a mental and physical level affects your
spiritual wellness. The mind and body enjoy the experience and ex-
tract an “essence” out of it.
Then, they give this “essence” to the spirit that stores it in the depth
of our soul and memory.

THE GUIDE TO RISE - EMPATHY

 A NICE EXERCISE:

FEELING GOOD
Let’s make a fun exercise to see
how what you love actually
effects on your body:

STEP ONE:
Find something that vibrates high in you. It can be a jewel, or another
kind of item.
If something that you love but that you can’t touch right now comes
up to your mind it’s fine, just make sure to build the clear vision of it in
mind.

STEP TWO:
Keep your favorite item on the palm of your hand and exploring it
using touch, sight and smell.
If you can’t touch your favorite item, just close your eye, and experien-
ce the sourface, colors and any other detail with immagination.

STEP THREE:
Which worlds, colors, emotions, visions, smells, memories this expe-
rience inspires in you? Write them down on the spot:

THE GUIDE TO RISE - EXPERIMENT

 STEP FOUR:
Now, just listen your jewel.
Can you feel a subtle positive vibe?
YES NO

Pay attention to your shoulders. Are they a little bit more relaxted?
YES NO

Now, isten your breath. Do you feel it deeper and lighter than a few
minutes ago?
YES NO

If your answer is “yes” to at least two of these questions, you have the
tangible proof that this item has a significant positive impact on your
physical and emotional body.

THE GUIDE TO RISE - EXPERIMENT

 Wearing rigs and pursue a purpose

Ring Meaning
& Symbolism
There are several reasons why you should care about finger meaning
and symbolism.

Wearing rings is not just about style.

In fact, it sends messages to
• other people, according to cultural belief, tradition and history
• your unconscious mind.

Think about it: hands have several, crucial rules in your life.
Hands are the primary tool you use to turn every thought into so-
mething tangible, to explore everything, to make someone closer to
you, to connect your core to the Universe during meditation practices
...and the list goes on and on.

Humans know how their hands have been crucial in their lives during the course of the history.
This assumption is based on hundreds of symbols and archetypes from different cultures and
ages which have “hands” as the subject.
This is an extremly fascinating world to me. If you’re with me and want to see more, check my
Pinterest board dedicated to Fingers and Symbols HERE.

THE GUIDE TO RISE - RING MEANING

 Hands have
a crucial rule
in material and
spiritual life.
Because of that, I want you be more grateful
for everything your hands do for you
at many levels on your daily basis.
 Now that you are conscious
about the “power” of your hands,
let’s try to think about
what happens if you give them
more power intentionally.

In the next section,

I’ll show you how you can wear rings by using ancient
symbolisms to actually change your inner
and your outside world in a positive way.

THE GUIDE TO RISE - LEFT & RIGHT

 An important distinction

Left & Right

RIGHT
• With the right hand you give energy to the outside world.
• Right is the hand of physical action
• The Right hand is the masculine essence (yang side)

WORK ON THE RIGHT HAND TO:

• share specific qualities to the Universe
• give qualities or skills to other people

LEFT
• With the left hand we receive energy.
• It’s the hand of creativity and process
• Left is the “thinking” hand
• Left is the feminine essence (yin side)

WORK ON THE RIGHT HAND TO:

• get specific qualities
• have the perfect mindset to generate special qualities
Looking how different cultures emphasizes the giving or the receiving
aspects is very interesting.

Here’s an example: the wedding ring is worn on the ring finger of the
left hand in Christian Culture. In other parts of the world, some people
wear it on the right hand.
This choice reflects different cultural approaches in the couple and
family relationships.
In fact, people who carry their wedding ring on the right hand belie-
ve that marriage is not only to be loved, but also to give more and to
love in return. For people who wear their wedding rings on the left
hand “to be loved” it’s more important than “to love”.

 How Crystals work

Your journey towards

healing by wearing
Crystals
HOW CRYSTALS WORKS
On a microscopic level, a crystal is a network of repeating geometric
patterns made up of compressed ions, atoms and molecules.
According to crystal therapy, every crystal has its own unique electro-
magnetic charge.
These charges, or ‘healing vibrations’, interact with the body’s energy
to remove ‘blockages’ and restore a healthy flow through body and
mind.

WHY WE LOVE TO WEAR CRYSTALS

In other words, the ultimate purpose in Crystal therapy is to restore
the health of the Aura.

The Aura is the layer of energy which interconnects all other subtle
bodies and also acts as a shield
covering and protecting our more refined bodies like the mental,
emotional, spiritual and astral bodies.

This aura represents your physical, mental, emotional and spiritual

energies.

THE GUIDE TO RISE - HOW CRYSTALS WOR-

 If something in our lives happens to unbalance this flowing,
such as a physical ailment, or a mental issue, then this results in a
blockage that could ultimately manifest as a physical illness.

Here’s when and why

we choose to work
with Crystals
and wear them
to be able to generate
healing and restore
the balance.
 Seeing with your core

LISTEN

Most of the people see with eyes only, but not you! I know that!

If you’re reading this guide you know your senses are not split in five
boxes, rather they’re one intelligent and extremely sophisticated sy-
stem!

When you “feel something” inside of you is like when you see a beau-
tiful ballet (that’s why I put the beautiful picture here below ;)

Recognizing every single dancer, it’s hard and anyway it doesn’t mat-
ter at all.

THE GUIDE TO RISE - LISTEN

 The only thing
that matter is the level of
the energy that YOU get,

the only thing

that matter here is
what YOU’re feeling.
Your own senses work in a similar way.
Everything you see and experience in life are basically the beautiful
dancers.
At the other hand your subconscious mind, meaning your past expe-
riences, your attitude and culture are is the viewer.

I said subconscious (not conscious) because we’re talking about fee-

ling and they come from the subconscious side of the brain.

Your mind is the viewer who judge the performance and experience
the feeling that comes from it.
The point is that everyone see the same thing (and see the same per-
formance) but the experiences could be very different!

Why?
The object language works like humans one and we like objects that
are “similar to us”, and that are able to find a connection in us, as we
like people who are similar to us!

But, how can an object (a jewel in this case) be similar to you?

Your subconcious mind already knows the language of what it lives.
A good or a bad experience depends on how many connections the
subconcious mind finds by using

EXPERIENCE
ATTITUDE
CULTURE

between itself and everything you’re experiencing.

Your experience, attitude and colture interact with the jewel and, if
they have a grate talk, probably you really love that jewel!

THE GUIDE TO RISE - LISTEN

 Experiences, attitude and culture
combining design the scenario.
That’s a the whole perception
of your jewel.

Which are the tools that jewelry actually use to speak?

Here’s the 3 ways that jewelry use to speak in comparison with hu-
man communication:

SHAPE and DESIGN (jewelry) = WORLDS (human)

COLORS,PATTERN and DIMENSION = TONE (human)

TOUCH (jewelry) = GESTURES (human)

Note: human gesture and posture can revel much more than worlds.
The same thing happens when we touch something.
Tactical experience could makes the difference between love or hate!
That’s why I compare the touch experience (object) with gesture (hu-
man).

You don’t need to memorize these

matches, your body/mind
already know them.

The Process

Whether you choose to wear jewelry with Crystals or not, there’s an

universal method to know which piece is better for you, and to avoid
items with negative energy.

Here’s the 3 steps to finding the perfect jewel for your growing.
* PS. It’s not a fashion style glamour staff, it’s real life.

All you need is:

YOUR FULL PRESENCE:
being present in the moment gives you the ability to focus on what
you’re living, so you’re able to give your best to the word and yourself.
Presence is the essential tool to live fully and consciously.

FIVE MINUTES:
time is the biggest luxury good today, even if it doesn’t cost any mo-
ney sometimes!

A JEWEL THAT SPARKS JOY IN YOU:

you don’t have to buy anything, do this experiment with something
that you already have.
If you don’t have a specific jewel that vibrates high for you, try to pick
a Crystal or stone that is special for you, just to experimenting this
prosess and find confidence with it!
Just make sure that what you choose inspires openness and joy in
you.

THE GUIDE TO RISE - THE PROCESS

Are you ready? Here’s how to do it:

Take your jewel, find a comfortable seat and remove any every di-
straction. You can sit in a meditative position or lie down.
You can also sit on a chair with your soles firmly on the ground.

Breathe consciously.
Breathe in (swollen belly) and breathe out (deflates the belly).
Gently, without forcing it.
Repeat for 3 times.
Close your eyes, if you want.

STEP 1 – Recognize and feel the vibes

Simply feel the tangible presence of the object on your skin.
You can keep it in the palm of your hand, or also on your third eye, if
it’s comfortable for you. Feel the pressure of the surface on your skin,
each millimeter of it.
You created a deep connection with your special jewel here.

STEP 2 – Create the channel and expand it

Your breath is like the wave of the Ocean.
Your energy reaches the center of your jewel when you breathe out
and then reaches your center when you breathe in.
Just visualize picking the positive and make it slide to your core when
you breathe in.
Come back to your jewel when you breath out.

You have just created the channel, now we’re going to expand it.
Close your eyes and try to visualize colors, shapes or any other factor
that attracts you pretending to be inside of your jewel.
Breathe everything that makes you well.

THE GUIDE TO RISE - THE PROCESS

STEP 3 – Take care of the precious vibe
Now you know the positive vibes of your jewel because you have
experienced them.
This energy protects your aura and gives you more strength and ba-
lance every time you wear your special jewel or not.
You can come back to your special jewel when you want or need.

Don’t take this too stiffly :) this is a process, a story about “trust”
between you and your favorite jewely.
As everything in life, only way to understand is experiencing. Just
start this journey and let me know how is goes :)

THE GUIDE TO RISE - THE PROCESS

If you really want to live the life you’re born for,
look in to the eyes of your Green Dragon,
give him magic Stones
and be ready for the new fly.
 THE GUIDE TO RISE
is the free e-book for everyone who
dives deeper in spiritual growing
by wearing jewelry.

It’s not a fashion stuff.
