The Compassionate Living Membership from Gogh Jewelry is an empowering monthly practice that’s sent right to your door created to inspire connection with yourself and Mother Earth. The intention is to use the energies from the crystals within the jewelry pieces to support change that comes from within. I was kindly sent this box for review.
This lovely delivery is a subscription box for everyone who wants to live happy and was born of the desire to spread positivity and aid conscious living. Each monthly practice (valued at over $97) contains a personalized gemstone bracelet, necklace, a healing crystal, two meditation cards (one to keep / one to gift) and your astrology forecast for the month. This personalized program is created to help you live your daily life happy, aligned with Mother Nature and the Universe. Szilvia Gogh, the creator of this box and the jewelry inside, says this is a crystal subscription box, jewelry subscription box, holistic subscription box, inspirational subscription box, and even a self-help subscription box all-in-one!
What makes this jewelry extra special, besides the uniqueness, handcrafted quality, and beautifully chosen stones, is that every detail down to the individual crystals themselves is chosen with intention. The materials utilized are of course special in that they have powerful energies, but also because they are part of a collection gathered on the designer’s worldly travels. Szilvia is a scuba diver, stunt woman, photo journalist, yoga enthusiast and world traveler who is inspired by the ocean in her creative process. The materials she collections on her trips are what is transformed into the very jewelry you’ll find in this box that’s meant to nourish the mind, body and soul.

The July box theme is “Authenticity”
The July Compassionate Living Membership focuses on how to discover your true authentic self through self-acceptance and introspection. It came with a written message from the creator of the box with a personal anecdote to tie in the theme and inspire further self-reflection. Here’s a closer look at the products in the July Box:
Onyx & Key Charm Silver Bracelet ($29 value)
Each month a handcrafted gemstone bracelet is included. It’s personalized to your wrist size and made with carefully picked healing crystals based on the energies in the Universe to assist your practice. This month the bracelet inspired by “Authenticity” is made with a teardrop shaped onyx stone and a tiny key charm.
The onyx is said to helps one have self control and anchors one’s flighty energy into a more stable way of life. It is also said to be the stone of inner strength and endurance, helping one to carry even the most difficult task to completion. The key charm symbolizes opening and closing powers. It represents knowledge, mystery, initiation, and curiosity. The key also represents new ways and answers. Both of these properties of curiosity and new knowledge combine make a great pairing for some self discovery on finding your true and authentic self. I think these bracelet is really sweet and I love the simple design of it. Since authenticity is something to aspire for at all times, this would make a great every day bracelet.
Jasper & Amazonite Beaded Necklace with Smoky Quartz Pendant ($29 value)
You will also find a handcrafted gemstone necklace in each monthly box. It is also made with carefully picked healing crystals based on the energies in the Universe to assist your practice. The “Authenticity” necklace this month is made with some very helpful stones including that beautiful smoky quartz teardrop shaped pendant. I love the subtle colors, the perfect length, the weighty feeling and bold yet also simply understated design this necklace has. I could see this being a great every day necklace or even dressed up for special occasions.
The lovely beads are a mix of jasper and amazonite. Jasper protects against negativity and aids in grounding you to the stabilizing energies of Earth. It sustains and supports through times of stress, and brings tranquility and wholeness. It encourages honesty with one’s self. Amazonite is called the stone of courage and the stone of Truth. Amazonite empowers one to search the self and discover one’s own truths and integrity, and to move beyond fear of judgment or confrontation with others to live in alignment with those beliefs and values. It provides the freedom to express one’s thoughts and feelings. Both VERY useful on the search for authenticity. Of course there is also the smoky quartz pendant which is an all around reliever of negative energies. Smoky quartz is excellent for elevating moods, overcoming negative emotions, and relieving depression. Smoky quartz relieves stress, fear, jealousy, anger and other negative emotions by transforming them into positive energies.
White Jade Meditation Gemstone ($9 value)
Each monthly box includes a healing crystal, a gemstone or an earth element to meditate with. You can hold it in your palm or keep it under your pillow to enhance your practice. This month the healing crystal of white jade was chosen. It’s a really cute little heart shaped stone that would be prefect for carrying along or stowing in your purse for authentic energies at all times. The handy interpretation card included stats that white jade is said to be a “very lucky stone” and is associated with peace, serenity, memory, vitality, harmony, wisdom, and long life. Jade has been used traditionally to increase courage, wisdom, justice, mercy, emotional balance, stamina, love, fidelity, humility, generosity, peace, harmony, lungs, heart, thymus, immune, kidney and blood detoxification.
Astrology Forecast ($10 value)
You’ll receive a PERSONALIZED Astrology forecast for health, love and happiness based on your Zodiac each month. When you subscribe you choose your zodiac on the submission form and then each month you’ll get a horoscope sent just for you. I love reading my horoscope and find great insight to utilize and apply to current situations. I appreciate that the one sent also incorporates the theme and inspires you to live authentically through your sign.
Affirmation Cards ($10 value)
Each month you will also receive two powerful affirmation cards to create EMPOWERING BELIEFS and set your mind on compassionate living. Keep one, gift one. I didn’t realize why there were two included at first, but I love that the second one is intended to gift. It’s wonderful to be able to spread positivity and this is a fun way to share it. I like the photography that comes along with the message and can only assume the lovely Szilvia took the picture herself, perhaps on one of her travels. Very cool! This would make a good mirror companion for morning positivity reminders.
Final Thoughts
This is my first time trying and reviewing the Compassionate Living Membership from Gogh Jewelry. It’s actually also my first time reviewing a jewelry specific box (though I’ve reviewed some jewelry before) and it was really fun! I am a lover of jewelry and crystals and mindfulness and personal growth so this box was basically made for me. The the personalization that goes into it really adds to that sentiment. I appreciate all the thoughtful details that go in to creating this box, from the handcrafted jewelry and mindful stone selection to the centeredness around a powerful theme that comes with a related inspiring story all wrapped up and meant to be a total practice. I like that you can focus on the practice and flaunt your jewelry for a month and then another batch of inspiration will arrive so you can build up your collection of accessories and your personal growth. If you like jewelry and self discovery, this box is definitely for you!
