I wanted to share with you the 3 best gemstones for stress relief because stress is something that is so hard to escape, at least for me. I’m always running around and doing million things at the same time. I love using gemstones and their properties for stress relief. As a jewelry designer, I’m always looking for ways to design jewelry that is not only beautiful, but has additional benefits as well. Sometimes it’s hard to slow down and find the time to relax when there are so many things demanding our attention at once. Jewelry is a great way to help you, not only feel beautiful and special, but also allow you to enjoy the benefits of various gemstones and the properties they have to offer. Wearing emstone jewelry can be a great reminder to slow down and take a deep breath when you are feeling overwhelmed and racing to get things done. Gemstones are also great for times when you need help to find inner balance and calmness. Here is a list of 3 best gemstones for stress relief and for finding and cultivating the inner peace that is sometimes hard to find.

Bronzite

I love Bronzite for it’s rich brown color. It’s a great neutral color to combine with so many outfits. Bronzite is said to be a balancing stone that helps to restore harmony and help you find hope when you might feeling powerless. It also is said to encourage control and self-confidence. You can wear a bronzite bracelet with almost any outfit colors because of the neutral shade.

Labradorite

I’ve always been drawn to Labradorite because of it’s beautiful dark coloring with spots of blue and gold mixed in. It wasn’t until later that I learned that labradorite is found in Finland among other places. I was born and raised in Finland so it’s no wonder that I’m so drawn to labradorite.  Labradorite is said to be a stone of transformation and protection facilitating transformation and reducing stress and anxiety.

White Howlite

White Howlite is such a pure stone with it’s white coloring and faint grey veins. It’s one of my favorite stones to design jewelry with. It’s also very fitting with the current marble trend. White Howlite is said to be a calming stone and also to reduce stress. It’s also a stone of awareness and balance. White howlite is another stone that can be combined with so many outfits and the white background with slight marbling really creates a beautiful canvas for layering and combining with other accessories and outfits. I personally love howlite bracelets because they provide such a clean slate and are so easy to combine with various colors. One of my favorite combinations is to combine howlite bracelets with matte black bracelets.
