Amethyst
Detoxifying the body; fostering clarity
A classic stone in work with addiction, known for its cleansing effect on body and mind. Amethyst can help to recognise old patterns, to calm inner restlessness and to break through emotional dependencies.
Kunzite
Fostering self-love; healing inner emptiness
A gentle heart stone that can help with emotional lack, feelings of guilt or inner hardness. Kunzite can open one to compassion, can strengthen self-worth and can support one in meeting oneself lovingly; even in phases of relapse.
Smoky Quartz
Releasing emotional tension; strengthening grounding
A powerful stone for letting go. Smoky quartz can help to release old burdens, to recognise emotional triggers and to find stability through phases of inner restlessness.
Tourmaline
Protecting energetically; giving support
A strong protective stone that can help one to set a boundary against harmful influences, both outer and inner. Tourmaline can have a stabilising effect with inner turmoil, can bring grounding and can support the courage to remain steadfast.
Turquoise
Strengthening inner truth; building protection for the soul
Turquoise can help one to meet oneself honestly and to recognise and uphold one's own inner boundaries. It can strengthen the connection between heart and expression; especially helpful when addiction is connected with suppressed feelings or a lack of self-awareness. It can also have a protective effect on the energetic field and can help one not to become lost in old patterns.

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.
