Winter has arrived! It can be a beautiful time of year for many, full of festivities and the Solstice. It is also an invitation for colder and darker days, seasonal affective disorder, and isolation. This is a list of stones I think work nicely in battling the winter blues. Happy holidays and new years everyone!🤎🌟
