Instructions

• 1

  Choose your green tourmaline. Pick up the stone and feel its energy. You may choose by the way it looks and feels to the touch, but the best way is to close your eyes and trust your intuition to tell you which is the right stone for you.

• 2

  Cleanse your green tourmaline after purchase and before using it for healing. Allow it to sit in moonlight, smudge it with cedar or sage, rinse it in a natural source of water, such as a stream, or bury it in the earth for a few days. Cleansing crystals regularly keeps them energized.

  Energize chakra points with green tourmaline. Chakras are whorls of energy situated through the body; some think they are connected to the endocrine system. There are many chakras with seven major centers: the crown, brow, throat, heart, solar plexus, sacral (within the pelvic girdle) and base (perineum).

  Place green tourmaline on chakra points, either alone or with other crystals. Choose the combination and placement according to the healing you wish to effect. Green and pink stones work well together to aid emotional balance. The stones can also be placed around the body as you relax.

  Wear green tourmaline to constantly benefit from its powerful healing energy. Note that green tourmaline jewelry is often sold under the trade name "Verdelite." Wear as a pendant or a ring.
