Metaphysical Properties of Gems for the Physical Body

I have to make some changes to the website so that my products stop from being censored by Facebook and Instagram… Unfortunately, there is a big push from the mainstream to prevent holistic ways to support our health from being accessed by people. So, in order for my products to be displayed on Facebook and Instagram, I have to remove all the information that pertains to the metaphysical physical properties of gemstones in their descriptions.

This blog post hopefully will give you insights into which gemstones to use for which condition. Of course, you don’t want to rely on gemstones to support your health. But they are a way to help bring more focus into your desired state of being. You want to also consider, detoxifying your body, eating unprocessed food which includes avoiding refined sugar and eating plenty of vegetables, exercising, getting restful and rejuvenated sleep, reducing your exposure to EMF as much as possible, managing your emotions and mental state, introducing meditation into your life, etc.
