Having suffered from chronic stress myself in the past, I want to tell you about this incredible stone that has greatly changed my life.

Lithotherapists consider howlite to be the stone of success, concentration, self-confidence but also weight loss.

In the rest of this article, we will introduce you to the many virtues of this stone and we will explain how to take advantage of it!

You will also learn which are the ideal combinations to multiply the effects, and thus put all the forces on your side!

Training

La howlite is a white, opaque and porous semi-precious stone whose main deposits are in North America and Canada. (1)

This stone is composed of silicon, calcium silicate and a large amount of boron.

La howlite takes shape in rather desert and dry areas of America, most often where borax deposits are found.

It is usually white in color, but its hues can vary between yellow and pale green.

Crystals of howlite are particularly rare. When we talk about howlite, we mean the nodule, which we cut with precision to make a beautiful smooth stone.

It is also the nodules that interest us for their precious benefits.

History

La howlite owes its name to Henry How, a Canadian geologist and chemist.

The latter discovered it in 1868 in the Bay of Fundy, Nova Scotia, while supervising drilling in a gypsum quarry.

First baptized silicoborocalcite by the geologist, this mineral will finally be renamed ” howlite In his honor, by mineralogist James Dana. (2)

In Europe, this stone was little recognized at its true value in its first hours; it was often colored blue, and used by counterfeiters for counterfeiting turquoise.

Too bad, for a stone which nevertheless has everything to seduce the natural, n’est-ce pas?

However, it is said that the Amerindians knew the howlite long before the arrival of the settlers.

According to custom, this White stone had immense sacred value to them, so much so that it was nicknamed the “white bison stone.” It is said to have been used for ancestral shamanic rituals.

Certainly in connection with its traditional use, it is said that the Navajo already knew howlite proven vertus protective and curative.

And speaking of vertus, it’s time to get to the heart of the matter!

Emotional benefits

Dispel fears

The howlite, stone of wisdom and reason, is a very good support in difficult times, whatever they are.

Wearing a howlite will allow you to overcome your fears and move forward.

Nothing like getting out of a delicate situation, finishing a complicated job or succeeding in an ambitious project!

Acting on the veins and the heart, this stone gives us coolness and allows us to more easily find solutions to our problems, without apprehension.

For good reason, the howlite purges our mind of all parasitic and negative ideas; it purifies our thoughts. (3)

With a clear mind, our concentration is increased, as are our memory and thinking skills.

Fight against stress

In 2017, a study by the firm Stimulus affirmed that 24% of French employees were under intense stress in their work.

It is undeniable: stress is a scourge, both for the body and for the mind. He hurts us, but he also hurts the people around us.

When stress becomes regular, it gives way to depression. This is called burnout.

You may have the impression that you have many problems, heavy responsibilities …

But what if your only real problem was stress?

To overcome this, the howlite will bring you the peace you need to think.

Oddly enough, you will see your problems gradually being solved, because you are up to the task.

Impulsivity control

In the same way as for the two problems mentioned above, howlite brings calm and peace in your daily life. Impulsivity being linked to the nerves, blood and heart, opening the sacral chakra and the solar chakra allows you to become much more zen.

This will control your emotions and over time you will always think before you act!

This stone therefore ideally contributes to preserving a healthy mind. A healthy mind in a healthy body ? We are coming!

Physical benefits

Weight loss and better digestion

As said before, howlite is an excellent ally for a slimming diet… and not only for the inner strength it gives you to achieve it!

Indeed, this stone has the particularity of promoting the elimination of water and digestion as a whole thanks to an accentuated evacuation through the urinary tract.

This process is called a “diuretic”, and this is due to the solar chakra flow that the howlite activates in the body.

In addition to helping in weight loss, howlite then strengthens the digestive system and helps it resist many diseases.

The diuretic purifies your body and prevents many ailments, especially those related to the stomach, intestines or liver.

Protection against stress-related illnesses

Unfortunately, we tend to underestimate the damage stress can cause to our body.

If you already have a high level of stress, then it is important to seek medical attention.

However, the benefits of howlite can be added to this follow-up to protect your heart.

It is said that howlite, stone of calm and gentleness, can prevent certain pathologies such as high blood pressure.

This is often linked to stress, alcohol consumption or obesity.

By extension, howlite therefore reduces the risk of serious and sudden illnesses such as heart failure, sometimes caused by constant stress.

Consolidation of bones and softening of the epidermis

Thanks to the sacred chakra it opens and the calcium that makes it up, the howlite strengthens teeth and bones.

It naturally prevents cavities and various dental problems. This then corresponds to both the youngest and the oldest.

The vertus that it offers for the bones can be very useful to athletes, but also to people who are rather sedentary, more prone to injuries. Let’s always be careful!

Finally, the stone invigorates the nails, the hair as well as the skin, which it softens at the same time.

Improved blood flow

Again due to the sacral chakra, this stone improves blood flow and regeneration of white and red blood cells.

The characteristics above-mentioned allow, consequently, to avoid certain edemas and other diseases which could occur due to poor blood circulation.

How to charge it?

The stones absorb negative energies all around them.

It’s hard to know which hands your howlite may have passed into, and it doesn’t really matter!

What is important, however, is to purify the stone before use, in order to make a clean sweep of the “dark” past it might have had!

To do this, all you need to do is immerse your howlite in a glass of salted water, and let it rest for 3 hours. Once purified, all you have to do is charge it!

But before that, I advise you to reprogram it completely.

This stone has certainly absorbed a lot of negative energies in the past.

It must therefore be filled with positive emotions before any use.

Hold it for a few moments with your eyes closed and think. Clear your mind until all dark ideas have left your thoughts.

Think about all the benefits that your howlite will bring you, and the result will be even better!

To charge your stone, all you need to do is expose it to the moonlight. (4)

In my case, I put my howlite on quartz while loading.

It is believed that quartz acts as an amplifier, and thus increases the power of the stone once charged.

Over time, do not forget to regularly purify your stone with salt water, in the same way as the first time.

This method will ensure that your howlite is never polluted by negative energies.

What combinations with other stones?

 Hematite

Hematite goes perfectly with howlite to combat disorders related to digestion or blood circulation.

It is considered to be the stone of energy, and it is a great option if you want to restore vitality to your body.

 Amethyst

Like howlite, amethyst is an excellent ally in the face of addiction, excess and stress.

It is an ideal combination to stop (or reduce) the drink or the cigarette, but also to lose weight.

In the latter case, you will have the perfect alliance between physical strengthening and psychological support to achieve this weight loss.

For my part, always in order to fight my stress, I decided to use this crystal in duet with the howlite.

What is certain is that the result was fast… and to say the least breathtaking!

L’apatite

Apatite is a very pretty stone, most often bluish in color. It is sometimes seen as the stone of artists, because its effects on emotions are particularly powerful.

Linked to the solar chakra (the heart), it is also an excellent support against stress.

Carried on oneself, apatite acts mainly on the heart, of which it regulates the beats and decreases the risks of hypertension.

For a combination of pendants that are effective against stress, I suggest apatite and howlite.

Additionally, it is believed that apatite can help a lot with weight loss, in a distinct and complementary way to howlite.

Indeed, apatite would act as an appetite suppressant. This will therefore lead you to naturally control your food consumption.

Red jasper

Also as part of a slimming diet, howlite can be combined with red jasper.

It is also known for its draining power, due to the sacral chakra which it opens.

A great way to multiply the effects!

Amber

If it is especially the psychic and emotional benefits of howlite that attracts you, then amber will be ideal.

Amber gives strength to our decisions, and prevents us from making choices lightly. It strengthens character, gives courage and makes us happy and optimistic.

It is a very good remedy against shyness, but also against impulsiveness and weakness of character.

Amazonite

Stone of wisdom par excellence, Amazonite is a solid way to fight your fears, and to decide to take action!

This stone allows us to overcome our apprehensions, and to find inner peace as well as serenity.

Whether it is to face a difficult period, or to make great strides in life, Amazonite will be a precious companion on the road.

You will therefore have the opportunity to amplify all the desired effects to achieve your goal or strengthen your health.

With such combinations, success is waiting for you!

How to use it ?

⦁ If you want to use howlite to lose weight thanks to the diuretic, then you should keep your stone on you (ideally near the stomach).

Your digestive system will naturally absorb its positive energies. If you choose a pendant, that will work too, but to a smaller extent. Even prefer a medallion, a little longer.

⦁ If you have stress issues or fear failure, then the best way is to keep the howlite as a pendant, close to your heart at all times.

This is also the method I used; it is formidably effective, because your solar chakra (located towards the heart) will be permanently open. Your body will welcome positive energy flows, and your stress will decrease day by day.

⦁ If you suffer from an emotional problem (depression, impulsivity, fear of failure, etc.), the pendant remains the adequate solution, because these mood swings are all linked to the same chakra: that of the heart.

⦁ If the atmosphere is tense, whether in your workplace or at home, placing several howlites in the room could transform the mood. Slowly but surely, she would give way to calm and good humor.

Conflicts are most often related to stress or anger. Spread peace everywhere around you with howlite!

Note that the pendant allows you to take advantage, at least partially, of all the virtues offered by howlite. (5)

If you want to lose weight, get rid of your stress and protect yourself from various ailments at the same time, then wearing the howlite as a pendant remains the best choice!
