For many people, it offers hope that our relationships with those we&#8217;ve lost don&#8217;t simply end when they die and can provide a sense of meaning at a time when life feels turned upside down.<\/p>\n<p id=\"exSObEJV0Ud\" data-wc=\"57\">Alexandra continues: &#8220;It&#8217;s not uncommon for people to visit clairvoyants or mediums in the hope of feeling closer to a loved one or receiving a message. If you do choose to explore this, I&#8217;d recommend doing your research carefully. The industry isn&#8217;t regulated, so personal recommendations from someone you trust are always a good place to start.<\/p>\n<p id=\"egcrfl2q0Rj\" data-wc=\"46\">&#8220;Spirituality isn&#8217;t about having all the answers, proof, or facts. It&#8217;s about acknowledging that there may be more to life than we can currently explain &#8211; and this can help people feel less alone in their grief, and provide hope and a sense of ongoing connection.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p id=\"eHHpdKCTrWm\" data-wc=\"16\">Alexandra also revealed how crystals can be used as a &#8220;grounding tool&#8221; when life feels overwhelming.<\/p>\n<p id=\"e20uOq96m3A\" data-wc=\"43\">&#8220;Helen also says she\u2019s been using crystals to help her navigate her grief. While she hasn\u2019t said which ones in particular she uses, Rose quartz can be very healing for the heart, while smoky quartz can transmute heavy, sorrowful energy into something lighter.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p id=\"eE1SYCv2VqFm\" data-wc=\"52\">&#8220;I love black obsidian, which absorbs negative energy and releases stuck feelings, but there are hundreds of different varieties to choose from. When buying a crystal, hold it in your hands and try to sense the energy coming from it. You&#8217;ll be able to tell if it\u2019s the right one for you.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h2 dir=\"ltr\" data-wc=\"3\" id=\"h2-4mrm21bik\">Alexandra&#8217;s top tip\u00a0<\/h2>\n<p id=\"e9-eyUeyo9Pw\" data-wc=\"36\">Alexandra&#8217;s top tip for when things feel tough is to keep a crystal in your pocket or purse. &#8220;You can hold it when you feel overwhelmed by emotions and use it to ground yourself,&#8221; she explains.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/www.instagram.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><script async=\"async\" data-cfasync=\"false\" src=\"https:\/\/pl30214220.effectivecpmnetwork.com\/9ab3d4df8a7e1a6171e16ddbf732cc19\/invoke.js\"><\/script>\r\n<div id=\"container-9ab3d4df8a7e1a6171e16ddbf732cc19\"><\/div>\r\n<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Call the Midwife&#8216;s Helen George may be the star of the stage and screen, and doting mother to her daughters, Ivy and Wren, but behind closed doors, she has overcome incredible grief.\u00a0 The King and I actress, 42, has opened up about the tragic loss of her ex-boyfriend, who died from blood cancer.
