Gemwater can gently support physical and emotional well-being and help promote inner balance. The practice of making gemwater dates back to antiquity and was sometimes extremely complex. Nowadays, two comparatively simple yet practical and effective methods have become established. One is the direct method, in which the stones are placed directly in drinking water. The other is the indirect method, in which the stones rest in a separate container in the water without touching it directly. As not all stones are suitable for direct contact, you should familiarise yourself with their composition and suitability before using them.
