Use Tourmaline Stones

No two tourmaline stones are identical.


Tourmaline is a hard mineral that grows inside rocks found around the world in places such as Sri Lanka, Africa and Brazil. Tourmaline naturally forms in several different colors such as black, green, red, blue and pink and it is often partially transparent. Tourmaline has been used as far back as ancient Egyptian times, when it was called "gemstone of the rainbow" due to the wide variety of available colors. Tourmaline is believed to have mental, spiritual and physical healing qualities. Purchase tourmaline online or through local gem dealers as well as jewelers.


Instructions


1. Wear black tourmaline jewelry around your neck, wrists or ankles or directly on any areas of the body experiencing an ailment to correct the energy of your cells.


2. Use brown tourmaline, also known as champagne and dravite, to calm and soothe yourself. It is also believed that brown tourmaline provides psychic protection.


3. Meditate while holding blue tourmaline to induce psychic awareness and emotional purification. Blue tourmaline is associated with higher self-awareness and intuition.


4. Stimulate the unity of your heart and body by keeping rubellite -- dark pink or red tourmaline -- with you. The dark pink tourmaline is high in lithium, which brings feelings of love and balance into your life.


5. Balance your metabolism and increase your immune system by wearing "watermelon" tourmaline that has pink, red and green color qualities.


6. Carry green tourmaline or wear it as jewelry to attract creativity, compassion and abundance in your life. For healers, this gem is thought to be particularly helpful when used in conjunction with healing herbs.


7. Increase your intelligence with yellow tourmaline, known as golden or tsilaisite. The bright yellow color is a product of the traces of manganese found in it.
