Worry Stone - Dumortierite

Worry stones are smooth stones with an indent that are said to ease stress and worry. Common to Buddhist meditation, it is said that a monk would start meditating with a smooth, round stone that would be rubbed with the thumb during meditation. Over the course of the monk's life, eventually an indentation would form, and this was a sign that the monk had reached enlightenment. Today, we sell these stones with the indentation already carved. Worry stones make the perfect gift for the worriers, the spiritual nomads, and will help focus those who can't seem to sit still.

Dumortierite belongs to the silicate class of minerals, and boasts a deep violet to blue colour. In rare cases this stone may also be found in pink and brown varieties. Dumortierite forms in prismatic crystals or a massive form, which will cause variations on the stone’s opaquancy, with crystals ringing to translucent or transparent, while the more common massive form is typically opaque. This may lead to it being misidentified as other stones, like sodalite or lapis lazuli. Dumortierite is named for the French paleontologist Eugene Dumortier, who discovered the stone in the Rhône-Alps of France in 1881.
