Shungite Crystal Healing Properties

The antioxidant properties of the fullerenes in Shungite make this crystal extremely useful for boosting the immune system. This is done by eliminating toxins, bacteria, viruses and free radicals. Similarly, it is reputed to have anti-inflammatory and anti-histaminic properties. Also, it is thought to have the ability to neutralise the negative effects of electromagnetic radiation.

Shungite is thought to also absorb negative energy and remove it from a person or space. Furthermore, it keeps us grounded and protected. It is also thought to reduce stress by transmuting negative emotions into positive energy.

History and Uses

Shungite is only found in one place in the world. It gets its name from the village where it is found called Shun’ga, in the Karelia area of Russia. This stone is a rare, carbon-based, noncrystalline rock which looks similar to coal. Also, it has the ability to conduct electromagnetic and geothermal energy. Furthermore, it contains fullerenes, carbon based molecules that are a natural anti-oxidant. It can absorb and shield the body from electromagnetic radiation. Traditionally, it was used in Shun’ga to protect and purify the body by placing the stones in drinking water. It needs to be cleansed and recharged regularly in order for it to be its most effective.

Geological Description
