In this episode of Practically Magick, hosts Courtney Pearl and Jamie Osbahr dive into the energetic and emotional terrain of self-expression, throat chakra healing, and the power of lapis lazuli. Set in the cozy, crystal-filled space of Rising Moon Minerals, the conversation flows from lighthearted “no bones days” to deep reflections on authenticity, activism, and the spiritual significance of speaking your truth.

What Is a No Bones Day?

Courtney kicks off the episode with a nod to the viral pandemic-era pug named Noodle, whose daily mood determined whether it was a “bones” or “no bones” day. If Noodle stood up, it was a bones day—time to hustle. If he flopped back down, it was a no bones day—permission to rest and take it easy.

“You can’t kill it every day. You can’t expect perfection or even excellence every day.”

This sets the tone for the episode: honoring your energy, listening to your body, and embracing the ebb and flow of life.

Oracle Pull: Peace

The card of the day from the Spell Casting Oracle Deck is Peace—a soft, angelic image filled with purples, blues, and doves. It aligns perfectly with the episode’s theme of throat chakra healing, which Courtney and Jamie explore through personal stories, crystal wisdom, and energetic insights.

“Living in that space brings peace. It’s not about constantly worrying about what you’re saying and how it’s perceived.”

Throat Chakra Blockages and the World’s Voice

Courtney shares a recent experience at the Wild Heart Horse Sanctuary, where the horses—described as shamans—rubbed their throats on a brush, signaling blocked throat chakras.

Jamie adds that the world’s throat chakra feels blocked, with oppressive forces silencing voices and creating fear around self-expression.

“How safe and supported do we feel in speaking our truth?”

This leads to a discussion on how societal pressures, political climates, and personal trauma can suppress our ability to speak freely and authentically.

The Fear of Being Seen

Courtney reflects on the challenges of running a healing business in today’s climate, where visibility can feel risky.

“Maybe there’s some level of fear blocking me from success because I’m afraid of what putting myself out there might attract.”

Jamie shares her own experience with receiving a negative Google review for displaying a Pride flag in her shop window.

“I take pride in that one-star review. If that offended you, you’re not my person.”

These stories highlight the importance of standing in your truth, even when it’s uncomfortable or unpopular.

The Power of Lapis Lazuli

The crystal of the week is Lapis Lazuli, a deep blue stone known for:

• Throat chakra activation
• Third eye stimulation
• Truth and self-expression
• Ancient wisdom and intuition

Jamie explains that Lapis Lazuli contains pyrite flecks, distinguishing it from similar-looking stones like sodalite.

“Lapis is a lazurite-based crystal with veins of pyrite. It’s ancient, powerful, and deeply rooted.”

Courtney adds that she uses Lapis primarily for throat chakra work, while deeper purples like amethyst and lepidolite resonate more with her third eye.

How to Use Lapis Lazuli:

• Wear it as a necklace near the throat
• Meditate with it to open communication channels
• Place it in your home to support authentic expression
• Use it during journaling or creative work to enhance clarity

Self-Expression and Inner Dialogue

Jamie shares how customers often gravitate toward blue crystals without realizing they’re seeking support for communication. She encourages them to explore not just how they speak—but how they listen and how they talk to themselves.

“It’s not just what comes out of you. It’s also what you’re willing to understand when people are trying to talk to you.”

Courtney adds that inner dialogue is a key part of throat chakra healing. The way we speak to ourselves shapes our reality and influences how others perceive us.

“I no longer want to live in shame. Everything I do is questioned. I’m so tired of that.”

From Riot to Movement: Finding Your Voice in Activism

Jamie shares a powerful moment at a Three Days Grace concert, where the song “Let’s Start a Riot” ignited a deep emotional response.

“I felt so powerful. I felt so energized. I keep saying those words—let’s start a riot.”

While she clarifies that she doesn’t advocate violence, the sentiment reflects a desire for movement, change, and empowerment in a world that feels increasingly oppressive.

Courtney adds that resistance can take many forms—from activism to rest.

“Taking a nap in the middle of the day is a form of resistance. I don’t have to work myself to death for capitalism.”

Authenticity, Belonging, and Letting Go of Shame

The hosts reflect on the journey to authenticity, especially as women conditioned to prioritize others’ needs over their own.

“Wouldn’t you rather actually belong than just fit in?”

Jamie shares how she’s helping her adult children find their own paths, encouraging them to explore therapy, energy healing, and other modalities.

Courtney adds that transparency and accountability are key to building real connections.

“I’d rather know what someone thinks of me—even if it’s uncomfortable—than have them pretend everything’s fine.”

Final Thoughts: Peace Through Expression

The episode comes full circle with the reminder that peace is found not in perfection, but in authentic expression. Whether you’re navigating business challenges, personal growth, or societal pressures, the key is to speak your truth, listen to your inner voice, and honor your energy.
