Handmade Jewelry Creations:  Inspired From Within by Krista Lynn Eggering - www.kristalynndesigns.com

I, Krista Lynn Eggering, Jewelry Designer and Spiritual Facilitator, was divinely guided to find my story. I have made it my intentional commitment that, through my workshops, people manifest their own stories.

In 2002, I took a giant leap of faith -- I left a stable corporate profession where financially I was raking in abundance. Spiritually, however, I was starving. I was often physically sick and generally unfulfilled. I  knew that this was no way to live but I had no idea what to do next. Asking the universe for guidance I was moved to take a sabbatical to Europe. For two weeks, I traveled alone, blissfully remembering who I really was and gaining valuable insight into the person I wanted to become.

Upon returning home, I was inspired to enroll in a course taught by Barbara Sher at The Leaning Annex in NYC. The message being communicated was crystal clear – a person can do anything if they only knew what it is.  So moved by this experience, I advanced my education, joining a Success Team led by Andrea Reese.  Since as Barbara Sher says “Isolation is the dreamkiller”, this weekly gathering of supportive individuals empowered my vision for "ArtSpa" -- a facility offering creative spiritual workshops to those in search of inspiration and healing. However, along with my dream came a degree of fear.

This fear then guided me to Julia Cameron's course, The Artist’s Way. So inspired, I was then able to tap into my inner voice. Looking within, I wondered how I would make my dream of ArtSpa come to fruition. Encouraging words from Julia Cameron -- "jump and the net will follow" gave me the faith and confidence I needed to boldly move forward.

This led me to participate in an intensive yoga teacher training, YogaVeda at the Queens Yoga Institute in New York, led by Kris Lanzaro.  This training enhanced my strengths and creative abilities in a way that would prove invaluable to my future role as Spiritual Facilitator for ArtSpa.

From these wonderful experiences, I was then divinely guided to design jewelry.  My primary focus was to envision and design one-of-a-kind ceramic pendants uniting beauty, grace and spirituality. Designing jewelry brings me to a peaceful place where the hummingbirds flutter, waterfalls cascade and flowers burst into bloom against a warm azure sky. I have found my bliss!  

Krista Lynn Designs (as well as myself) had awakened.  Each one of my jewelry pieces tells a story.  Embraced with semi precious stones, each creation powerfully attracts its rightful owner.  The process of designing and creating jewelry came naturally to me and through this artistry I found something about which I am passionate. Through traveling and research I have cultivated a strong knowledge of stones and crystals and am a firm believer in the spiritual and healing qualities of these natural resources.
