The book positions crystals as a soft point of focus to support staying in the present moment, encouraging attentiveness without judgement or the need for things to change. It describes crystal gazing as a way to invite clarity and stillness, and suggests that different crystals can help quieten mental chatter.

The introduction outlines mindfulness, how it works, and how crystals can be used to practise it. Part 1 addresses topics linked to mindfulness practice, including staying grounded, becoming centred, switching off the chattering mind and accepting yourself. Part 2 provides a directory of 24 crystals, each accompanied by a description of its qualities in relation to mindfulness, a purpose-led exercise, keywords and a Crystal Reflection intended for quick access to inner calm, with guidance on choosing a crystal by browsing images or using the book’s headings.
