This ring is made from a gold filled brass cuff band. The band has four prongs that hold the stone on the front. The prongs hold a natural larimar stones. The larimar stones are cut and polished into different shapes. Each larimar stone has unique colors and patterns. Not one is exactly like another. Larimar is a serene crystal that can promote relaxation and calm. It is a popular choice for a “worry stone,” a smoothly polished stone that is held in the hand and rubbed by the thumb as a folk practice for relieving anxiety. Larimar’s connection with the element of water – which is the element that rules our emotions – means that it is a wonderful stone to use for all manner of anxiety related to emotional issues, such as that caused by relationships, social anxiety, guilt, or anxiety caused by “thinking bad thoughts.” It is connected with the throat chakra, which is the chakra of communication (and usually characterized with a bright blue or turquoise color). It makes it much easier to communicate about issues of both emotion and fear, and promote confidence in speaking about these issues. It has an emotional healing effect that will assist you in overcoming self-sabotaging behavior, such as martyr complexes, learned helplessness, or developing a narrative of self-victimization. It will also help you communicate with others to express the fact that you are having these self-sabotaging urges, which will help your loved ones develop frameworks for lifting you out of these phases. It is a wonderful stone for meditation, as its positive effects on communication also include the communication between yourself and the higher powers of the universe.
