Pink Tourmaline is a positive crystal that brings strength as it opens your Heart chakra. These energies bring you to a place of love, through conviction, courage and strength. It improves energy circulation throughout the chakras and subtle bodies. Its balancing and heart energies lend you strength and courage so that you can view your situation with proper perspective and self-compassion. This can help you to identify and break free from negative situations such as an abusive relationship or a toxic work culture. Its energies can help you deal with the aftermath and discover the emotional support you need to adjust. This is a process of unlearning past destructive patterns and old emotional wounds that prevented you from finding joy in life.

Pink Tourmaline is also excellent for connecting with the Earth on an emotional level. This connection illuminates the relation between the Earth and humanity. This can help you live in a way that promotes the health of our planet.
