Classical Hematite Bracelet

Hematite grounds and protects us.  It strengthens our connection with the earth, making us feel safe and secure, which in turn gives us the strength to create healthy boundaries energetically and emotionally.  It endows us with courage, endurance and vitality.  A "stone for the mind", Hematite stimulates concentration and focus, enhancing memory and original thought.

Hematite utilises the magnetic qualities of our yin-yang energies to balance the meridians within the body and to provide a stable equilibrium between the ethereal nervous system and the physical nervous system.  It focuses energy and emotions for balance between the body, mind and spirit.

Dissolves negativity and prevents you from absorbing the negativity of others.  Haematite is strong, supporting timidity, boosting self-esteem and survivability, enhancing willpower and reliability, and imparting confidence.  It helps to overcome compulsions and addictions, treating overeating, smoking and other forms of overindulgence. 

Haematite restores, strengthens and regulates the blood supply, aiding blood conditions such as anaemia.  It supports the kidneys and regenerates tissue.  Stimulates the absorption of iron and formation of red blood cells.  Treats leg cramps, anxiety and insomnia.  Hematite aids spinal alignment and fractures.

Most gemstone jewellery is fairly durable, but some care does need to be taken.

• When putting on a stretch bracelet, roll it on to your wrist gently.  Do not pull it outwards as this can unnecessarily stretch the elastic out of shape.
• Remove jewellery before doing any housework - household cleaners are corrosive and may permanently damage your gems.
• Remove jewellery before doing any manual labour; or work requiring hands to be immersed in water.
• Remove jewellery before swimming or showering - chlorine, some soaps and just immersing in water, may cause damage to your gemstones or their settings.
• Remove jewellery before sleeping - tossing and turning in your sleep puts excess strain on your jewellery, causing it to become loose or even break.
• Only put on your jewellery after perfume and/or hair care products have dried - these may cause breakdown of the stones or their settings.
• Store in a dark place, out of direct sunlight, in a pouch, ziplock bag, or jewellery box - sunlight may cause fading of stones and the humidity in the air can cause tarnishing to silver.

General Cleaning
Gemstone & Crystal Jewellery - Take care when using polishes and tarnish removers around your crystals, as these can be corrosive and cause your stones to become dull and fade.  Some stones are more sensitive to getting wet than others, so it is always best to clean your gemstone and crystal jewellery by wiping with a soft cotton cloth.

Silver Jewellery - Silver can tarnish quite easily, leaving it looking black and dirty.  To ensure that your silver jewellery is kept shiny it can be polished gently with a jewellery cloth, or you can use a standard silver polish.
