Metaphysical properties of tourmaline: ... (see Note on Properties) Tourmaline is a powerful, fast acting crystal. Its energies can help clear away negative emotional patterns and help you to release pains caused by events long past. Tourmaline can help purify and renew all htmlects of yourself. Tourmaline's energies can be directed at specific areas of your mental, physical, spiritual, or emotional self, but it is also one of the best all-around healing and cleansing stones. This stone diffuses and dissipates negative energies, leaving you calm and clear headed. Tourmaline can aid you to gain a more balanced understanding of the meaning of life.
