Tourmaline cleanses, purifies and transforms dense energy into a lighter vibration. It is a shamanic stone that brings protection during rituals. Aids in understanding oneself and others, promoting self-confidence and diminishing fear. It transmutes negative thought patterns into positive ones. 
 
Black Tourmaline protects against electromagnetic smog and negative energies of all kinds. It grounds energy, dispersing tension and stress. Clears negative thoughts, promoting a laid-back, positive attitude.
