, I need to label the bottle) & I put all of my “worry stones” & “coins” on selenite for a little bit. I’m going to use them in my practice a bit more I think as I learn more about them. I’m just getting them ready to be used & give them a good cleanse until I am ready. I may put them out under one of the upcoming moon phases for some oomph! 
Good for you, Siofra!
