Design with a Healing Intention
Natalie Justine Alexandra Hicks
All my life I wanted to know myself deeply, to understand my purpose. I always knew I was here to love, to heal, and to express myself. I am a seeker and a mystic.
Through creating, I’ve come to know myself in a deeper way. I find moments of grace where all the world becomes still, it’s like poetry. All that I feel is channeled into my self expression and whatever I’m working on. I love the act of creating; breathing life into something. It’s a magical feeling, a feeling that there are no words for. It’s a way to be reborn, to create a new signature, through the process of taking something old; a found object and creating something new.
I was born and raised in Marin County, California, where I currently live and create my jewelry with my two dogs at my feet. I have a strong passion for protecting the environment, creating beautiful art, and for Energy Medicine; all of which I have woven together into the creation of jewelry.
I have always been an empath, sensitive since the time I was born. Since I was young I’ve felt a deep connection with the Earth and a sense of harmony in nature. I have a great love and respect for the creation process, visualizing in my minds eye, playing with colors, paints, and pencils. As a child you would never see me without a pencil and sketch book, always drawing what I saw. From there I became enamored with jewelry, and I developed a true appreciation for beauty and fashion.
I received my Bachelors In Art Education in 2010. I have taught art internationally in Costa Rica, and Ecuador while working to raise awareness to protect endangered species. In an effort to know myself more deeply and connect with my spirit, I went back to school and studied Intuition Medicine. I have found that a large part of my calling is to access the divine and incorporate it into carefully selecting healing gemstones. Every piece of jewelry I make begins with intention, first holding the stones, and calling in my higher self allowing my intuition and heart to guide me in the creation process.
Today I collect gemstones from around the world and I am inspired to create designs that speak to my heart and have healing intentions imbued in them. My mission is to inspire humanity, raise collective consciousness and protect our forests on Earth. When you buy a piece of Justine Alexandra jewelry you are not only investing in a timeless piece, but helping me fulfill a meaningful mission.
