Raw & Tumbled Crystal Gemstones
Ever wondered why when we are in nature, we feel refreshed and invigorating?
Well at least one scientific account for this to do with the emission of negative ions. When we are around mountains, woodland; in particular waterfalls and beaches where water is in motion our mood and our overall well-being is lifted.
There are certain Crystals that emit negative ions when heat or pressure is applied. This alchemical reaction is what is known as Piezoelectricity. Tourmaline, Clear quartz, Amethyst and Citrine all create negative ions which promotes happiness. The applied heat or pressure cause they’re properties to expand. This expansion, causes more electrons than protons to be present giving it a negative electric charge. Thus, emitting negative ions that will transfer to any organic molecule present in the air.
The negative ion emissions bring about a positive effect on one’s mood and psychological well-being, producing enhanced feelings of happiness and reduced feelings of depression and anxiety. Just like the feelings one would get when they are out by the beach or a waterfall.
