Do you suffer from tension, anxiety or stress and are you suffering from this? Are you perhaps looking for a gemstone that helps with stress? Read in this blog which gemstones can help reduce stress and tension. Stress can have several underlying causes. This may be due to uncertainty, workload, not really feeling who you are or that you always ask too much of yourself. It can sometimes seem as if your environment always determines everything about you and you constantly have to meet imposed expectations. The cause of stress is that your capacity (what you can handle) is not in balance with your load (what is asked of you).
