Shungite

Mysterious Shungite is one of those stones that exudes unique healing properties. Scientists have not yet determined where this mineral came from. The organic compounds it contains could suggest that the stone formed in the forest soil. However, the age of the mineral, which reaches about 2 billion years, refutes this theory because no organic compounds existed on our planet at that time. Shungite contains almost the entire periodic table, but there are mostly carbon atoms. Its name comes from the area where it is found.

The mineral has the most cleansing and detoxifying properties. It will help to silence internal noise that prevents you from concentrating and calming down. It is the way the stone will allow you to take a break from all the negativity and charge yourself with positive emotions.

Shungite is suitable for those who want to cleanse and open all the chakras of the body. Acting through the elements of the earth, it will ground your energy and helps to release all that is no longer serving. In this way, you will find unity between spiritual, emotional and physical bodies.

Not all of the healing properties of Shungite have been thoroughly studied by scientists. However, since time immemorial, the stone has been used to detoxify the body and protect it from various diseases. The mineral was added to the water to cleanse it of harmful organisms and other substances. Shungite is believed to kill viruses and reduce inflammation. It is recommended to keep the stone at home near electronic devices such as microwave ovens or Wi-Fi emitting devices to minimise the effects of electromagnetic waves on the body.
