Black Tourmaline Tumble Stone

Tourmaline is a protective stone that is said to shield against ill-wishing and negative energies. In addition it is believed to protect against electromagnetic smog and radiation from mobile phones.

Tourmaline can be used as a natural insecticide. When buried in the ground or earth around a plant it is believed to deter pests and encourage healthy growth.

Tourmaline is said to encourage a positive attitude to life, whatever the circumstances, dispelling negative thoughts and encouraging clear rational thought processes.

In healing Tourmaline is said to strengthen the immune system and to reduce the pain of arthritis and muscle strain. Keeping a piece of tourmaline near a painful knotted muscle is believed to help relieve the pain.

Tumble stones are crystals that have been polished by turning in a large drum with water and a grinding or polishing powder. This results in a smooth and tactile stone that is enticing to touch and hold and often has an increased radiance and beauty compared to its natural form.
Tumble stones are usually an ideal size to keep in your pocket or in a pouch and for placing on or around the body during crystal healing.
