On the palette of winter tones - healing stones against winter shadows
The color palette of winter tones includes white, blue and purple, with the gray, muddy brown and black of winter clothing added to it.
Winter has its own specific poetry – sparkling snow, the silence of frozen lakes and long candlelit evenings that bring fragrance and comfort. But it is also associated with feelings of fatigue and lack of vitamin D, because there is a lack of sunlight, difficulties, and the strain of getting up in the dark in the morning. As the nights grow longer, we look for ways to keep our inner warmth, positive mind, and balance. The healing stones offered by nature are here to accompany us on our winter journey.
