Gemstones:

Amethyst: In ancient times, the Greeks used to think that amethyst would protect those who wore it from becoming drunk. The name Amethyst is derived from the Greek amethystos which when translated is “not drunken”. Amethyst has also been used to encourage celibacy, erase evil thoughts and keep one grounded.

Tourmaline: Tourmaline derives its name from the Sinhalese word “tura mali” (stone of mixed colors). However, according to the Ancient Egyptians, tourmaline traveled along a rainbow on its way down to earth, which is why it’s sometimes called the “rainbow stone”. No two pieces of tourmaline are the same. Tourmaline is said to have a powerful influence on love and friendship. It is said to help dispel fear and grief, and can lend itself to give tranquil sleep.
