About the Mine to Mind Articles

Grounded Lifestyles’ Mine to Mind Blog connects geology, artistry, and mindful living.
Here you’ll find expert articles written for collectors, designers, and anyone drawn to the beauty and science of Earth’s minerals.
Our topics span crystal identification, fossil preparation, meteorite science, and decor styling—bridging practical collecting with mindful appreciation.

We publish new features weekly, drawing from more than 25 years of experience in ethical mineral sourcing and education.
Each article is paired with real specimens featured in our online shop and Arizona store booths, creating a transparent link between knowledge and authenticity.

Readers can explore focused categories such as:

  • Minerals & Geology Guides – crystal structures, locality profiles, and collecting tips.

  • Fossils & Earth History – from ammonites to dinosaur bone.

  • Meteorites & Space Science – iron, stony, and pallasite origins.

  • Crystal Healing & Lifestyle – symbolism, décor, and mindful living practices.

For deeper learning, access our Free E-Book Library to download guides on crystal care, feng shui, and collector fieldwork.
