How to clean howlite?
Natural stones absorb the energies around them and therefore their energy is depleted over time or they accumulate negative energies. These negative energies can reduce or completely destroy the natural healing properties of the stone. Also, natural stones used by many can also be charged with other people’s energies. Therefore, before using a stone that you have received from someone else, it is important to clear whether the energies of the previous user are still present in the stone.
Energetic cleansing of natural stones removes negative energies, allowing the positive energies of the stone to reappear and preserving its healing properties. Howlite is a crystalline stone that needs to be cleansed energetically. The best way to clean natural stones is to clean them under running water and salt water. Here’s how you can clean howlite:
- Wash the stone under cold running water.

Alternatively, you can leave it in the sun or moonlight for a few hours. Howlite can also be used with self-cleaning stones such as selenite or amethyst. These methods can help balance and renew the energy of the stone.
