ABALONE SHELLS HEALING

Healing Properties of Abalone Shell

Holding a piece of abalone shell may make you feel: love, beauty, gentleness, caring, comfort, peacefulness, delight, solace, sand, water. Abalone Shell has the colors of the ocean in it, blues, greens, purples and yellows. It is soft to the touch from repeated tumbles in the sand and water. It has slight ripples on it like the patterns left in the sand as the waves lapse over it. It is comforting to hold it and rub the softness like you would a worry stone. People are instantly taken with its beautiful colors. To look at it brings me instantly to the ocean. For those of you who have never been to the ocean, buy a piece of it, and bring a little piece of the ocean to you.
