This list is not 'set in stone' (pun) but a list of some the most easy to find crystals and stones that may be useful to both students and teachers; concentration, confidence & stress being the main focus. I referenced my favorite crystal book, The Book of Stones, to put this list together & recommend it to anyone interested in the healing properties of crystals.
