Turquoise

Turquoise is one of the oldest healing stones but is becoming increasingly difficult to find these days. It is considered to be one of the most powerful gemstones by many world cultures. Turquoise supports self-expression, communication, and the throat chakra, but it also offers some protection from toxins. It is thought to be emotionally balancing and stabilizing.

Unakite

Unakite offers EMF protection. The green mineral in unakite is epidote, which amplifies the properties of the other minerals. Unakite is also said to release energetic blockages and help us “move on” in our lives. Said to increase spiritual insight, vision, and “third eye.”
