From ancient times, humans have marveled at the raw beauty of stones formed from molten lava. Lava stones, volcanic rocks cooled from the fiery depths of Earth, have been cherished by people from all walks of life
Introduction to Lava Stones
Lava Stone, also known as Basalt and Lava Rock as many like to call it. I like to call lava stone because it feels more like a stone than a rock. Lava rock is a search term for a mineral that forms when magma from volcanoes solidifies and hardens into rock. Lava stones are often mistaken as gem stones for whatever reason, but they are not really officially recognized as gemstones. In fact, from a geological standpoint they are not gemstones at all!
We also call them lava stones since this sounds so much better than volcanic rock or pumice stone or igneous rock. This lava stone is found worldwide around Volcanos and is one of the oldest and most abundant minerals on earth.
Most Lava Rock that appears on the market today is probably mined and comes in many and shapes. Lava stone is shaped mostly into round beads, but you can also find lava rock as rectangular sticks and or round flat coins.
Lava Stone Applications
Lava stones seamlessly blend with modern wellness practices. Their porous nature makes them perfect diffusers for essential oils, contributing not only a sensory delight but also a calming presence in one's immediate surroundings. Furthermore, their association with the root chakra enhances grounding meditations, assisting in energy healing practices that aim to align the body's core energy.
Essential Oils: Scented Renewal
Essential oils like lavender, frankincense, or eucalyptus can be used in conjunction with a charging method to amplify the energy of your lava stones. Apply a drop onto the stones or add oils to a fragrance holder nearby during the charging process. The aromatic properties of the oils enhance emotional and spiritual renewal, infusing the stones with both energetic and sensory rejuvenation.
