Need to detox?  Reminiscent of the lush, verdant hues of nature in full bloom, Malachite reflects the detoxification powers of nature, absorbing negative energies and pollutants from the atmosphere and from the body. 

Malachite guards against radiation of all kinds, clears electromagnetic pollution and heals earth energies. At home, keep a Malachite crystal near microwaves, computers or televisions. In the workplace Malachite protects against noise, over-bright fluorescent lighting, and harmful rays from technological equipment, negative phone calls and emails.  Next time f**king Rhonda from HR sends one of those passive aggressive all office emails be prepared with a Malachite crystal by your side.
