I got this info at a local store when i bought a piece. It was found by Steven Rosley in South Africa in 1996. It is a mix of serpentine and Chrysotile. It is a stone of gentle ,loving,angelic energy that draws out anything negative we manifest in our bodies,whether physical,emotional,mental,or spiritual. Reiki and massage therapists who have used this stone say that it facilitates deeper relaxation and meditative states in their clients. They have also found it to pull pain out of the body. A small piece of this stone makes a great worry stone and sleeping with it can bring a more restful nights sleep. They say that the lighter shades of this stone are gentler and more soothing and the darker ones seem to have more of a concentrated energy.
