olivenorma Sapphire Thumb Worry Stone

MADE OF REAL NATURAL CRYSTAL  

💙Sapphire

Like other beautiful blue gemstones, the Sapphire stone is connected to the throat chakra and the third eye chakra too. The sweet and wise energy of the Sapphire stone can help in healing across all avenues of the body. Thanks to its calming energy it is believed to promote peace and pristine rest, helping to slow down the mind and serving as a natural relief for those who struggle with insomnia. Sapphire also helps to balance the emotions which means that it can help reduce the physical symptoms that tend to be associated with stress and anxiety too.

WHAT IS A WORRY STONE?

A worry stone is a small, smooth stone (often made from a crystal or gemstone) that is shaped like an oval and has a thumb-shaped indentation. The object of worry stones is to rub the thumbprint back and forth as a way to calm the mind. Much like how prayer beads are used, the action of rubbing a stone and holding positive thoughts and intentions can help deal with anxiety or aid in prayer or meditation.

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS?

• Stress and anxiety
• Soothe the nervous system
• Ease negative thinking
• Clear the mind
• Help keep you grounded

WHEN TO USE A WORRY STONE?

1. When you're feeling stressed.
   This encompasses so many scenarios; big interview coming up? Getting ready for a date? Stressing about the state of the world? The sky's the limit with these stones. If you are going through a challenging transit, or periods of anxiety, you have access to it.
2. While meditating.
   Another way to work with a worry stone is by incorporating it into your meditation practice. Similar to a mala used in Hinduism, which involves saying a mantra for each bead on the necklace, you can recite an affirmation or mantra every time you rub your stone. Or, for a less-involved approach, you can simply hold it in your palm as you meditate. It gives the mind something to do and can add to the relaxation benefits.
3. Before bed.
   Stress and anxiousness have a knack for striking at the worst times—like when you're trying to fall asleep. Let all the worries of the day go by grabbing your worry stone before bed, Lyons suggests. You could even have one in the bath with you if that feels nice.
4. On a walk.
   So often we think of meditation as being passive, but it can be a walk in nature—more of an active thing. Indeed, meditation doesn't come easy for all, but by turning an afternoon stroll into a moving meditation, with the added benefit of incorporating the worry stone, you'll get all the benefits of fresh air and movement, plus channel some stress while you're at it.
5. During a difficult conversation.
   And lastly, if you struggle to keep your cool during arguments, that's another great opportunity to call on your worry stone. Reach for it when you feel tempers flaring, and give yourself a moment to gently rub the stone a few times and take a deep breath before you decide to speak.
