Spiritual Healing Properties
Howlite has a wonderfully soft and peaceful energy that gently expands outward when used during meditation, prayer, or spiritual journeying. It calms our spirit, helping us to find a sense of balance in our everyday life and to connect more directly with our Highest Self and other guides. Howlite encourages us to believe in our dreams and to not hesitate when action is needed. It is a stone of patience and wisdom.
Emotional Healing Properties
Howlite quiets the ‘inner critic’ which is often so unkind, and replaces that voice with one more compassionate, patient and tactful. Howlite helps us to calmly and clearly express our own thoughts and emotions and to better understand what other people are trying to communicate, both verbally and non-verbally. Howlite is particularly helpful for handling boisterous children in a loving fashion which nevertheless commands their attention and respect. Howlite can help us to better handle rude behaviour or thoughtlessness of other people. It gently releases stress and irritation from our emotional body, and reduces outright anger by channelling it in a productive direction. Howlite encourages us to speak and act with true decency towards others and to encourage this humanitarian spirit in others.
Mental Healing Properties
Howlite inspires good, thoughtful reasoning. It is a wonderful stone for scholars and students as it encourages a love of learning and improves memory retention. It inspires patience and a willingness to observe, experiment, and carefully analyse before jumping to any conclusions. Howlite teaches discernment and can help us to give and receive constructive criticism in a more palatable way so that it is easier to accept and integrate. It also reminds us to be patient with ourselves and our learning process, while remaining ambitious and eager to go after our goals.
Physical Healing Properties
Howlite is reminds us to pay attention to what we eat and make sure we get the nutrients we need. It can help us explore dietary problems, which lead to harmful weight-gain or weight-loss. It reminds us that the body wants to be healthy and balanced and that giving our body good food and proper portions is an act of wisdom and self-love. Howlite is particularly recommended for anyone exploring the role of calcium levels in their body. It is a lovely talisman for anything to do with teeth, bones, cartilage, as well as illness such as osteoporosis. It is also a sweet crystal for anyone suffering from insomnia or nightmares. Howlite helps us to calm down and to engage in soothing activities. Don’t be surprised if Howlite’s recommendation is “how about you have a nice glass of warm milk, and then hop back into bed.”
