Hope PTSD Awareness Healing and Grounding Bracelet

This grounding bracelet promotes awareness of Post-traumatic stress disorder. It is made with howlite beads that were dyed to be similar in color to turquoise. Teal is the color used for promoting awareness about PTSD.

Posttraumatic stress disorder can occur to anyone who's been through a trauma. According to the National Center for PTSD, 7-8% of the population will have PTSD at some point in their lives.

I was diagnosed with PTSD last summer. I was raised by a mentally ill mother and grew up in an emotionally and mentally abusive environment. I'm on the path to healing and doing very well. My PTSD and healing is actually what got me started making bracelets. I first made a bracelet for myself using semi-precious gemstones for their healing energies, because I felt like it would help me to have something physical I could hold onto. I really feel like my bracelet has helped me stay grounded when I'm having panic attacks or disassociating.

That's why I made these bracelets. I'm hoping they will help others the way they've helped me.

Howlite is a calming stone; it aids in sleeping, calming the overactive mind, and stress relief. Physically it calms the whole body and relieves muscle tension. It helps control anger, and relieves stress and anxiety, by absorbing negative energy.

The bracelet is about 7 inches long, not including the toggle clasps.

Wicked For Good Inspired Healing Bracelet

Handmade bracelet inspired by the Broadway musical Wicked, I used beads to spell out 'For Good' the title of a duet between Elphaba and Glinda. The green jade bead represents Elphaba and the pink rose quartz bead represents Glinda.

I used 6mm onyx beads, and 8mm jade and rose quartz. Bracelet is 7.5 inches long. I used a simple silver plated toggle clasp on the ends.


~*~Healing Energies~*~
Onyx is a great healing stone and valuable in difficult or confusing times. It is said to help soothe and balance overwhelming fears and worries. It is a protective stone- repelling negative energies. It is extremely helpful for people who are having trouble letting go or releasing the past.

Jade creates calm, harmony and peace. It will counteract depression and soothe the mind. It aids emotional release. Jade also attracts good luck and friendships.

Rose quartz soothes, comforts and reassures, bringing deep emotional healing. It is a stone of unconditional love and opens the heart chakra to all forms of love: self, family, platonic and romantic. Rose quartz brings gentleness, forgiveness, compassion, kindness and tolerance.
