Use Of Stones To Help In Study

For helping students to study better, here are some of the stones recommended: -

(1) Amber: Best to use fossilized amber. Suppose to improve overall intelligence.
(2) Tiger Eye and Carnalian: Suppose to help in concentration. Tiger eye also helps in making the wearer courageous, especially good for those who are shy in class and dare not participate or even ask questions. Tiger Eye is a solar plexus chakra stone and it also helps to promote mental clarity and improve analytical ability.
(3) Strawberry or Red Tiger Eye/ Turquoise : Helps in public speaking. Good for presentation in class.
(4) Hematite: Helps in improving mathematical and science abilities.
(5) Amethyst: a Generator or Cluster in the study room helps concentration and improve eyesight.
(6) Fluorite is another stone that helps to calm the mind and improve concentration. I have students who often come to the shop to ask for this stone especially before examination periods.

(1) – (4) - to wear them as pendants, or bracelets.

A formidable combination of the tiger eye species is the iron tiger eye which include yellow tiger eye, red tiger eye (jasper) and hematite. Its is definitely a good stone for students.

Once my son complained that when he took his first examination paper for an important subject, he was so nervous that he did not know what he was answering. The next day, I gave him a Quartz Star of David pendant to wear and he succeeded in overcoming his jittery for the subsequent exam papers and went on to fare quite well in his results.

My friend, a VP Engineering in a large hotel chain, who learned meditation and Qigong from me, related how he used copper wire to help him concentrate in his study during his university days. He would coil a strain of copper wire in a series of loop and hold in his palm of his left hand or fiddle with it with his left hand fingers while he was studying his books and notes. He swore that this method helped him concentrate better.
