What are the spiritual properties of Rhodonite and how to use it on your healing journey.

Rhodonite is a stone of emotional balancing. It is a nurturer that clears emotional wounds from your past. Rhodonite stimulates your heart chakra but also grounds and balances your energy. It helps with emotional panic and encourages forgiveness. Rhodonite is a kind and loving healer that brings you back to center during stressful times. It calms emotional shock and panic, and supports you when dealing with painful issues. It also helps you to see both sides of a situation and approach them with compassion and an open heart.

Rhodonite is quite often called "The Rescue Stone" as it comes to us in times of need and is a beautiful support to add to your spiritual toolkit.
