I use Ocean Jasper primarily for calming down "workaholic" tendencies in ambitious, driven people. It calms nerves and helps one balance life's activities, giving perspective, gratitude and a new appreciation of what is truly important. Yes, it is very good for physical healing as well but Ocean Jasper excels in the psychic realm, helping one navigate social situations at work, home and play, nurturing the present moment. Ocean Jasper is one of the best stones for self healing; calming nervousness and nervous habits due to stress. It is also very protective. Helps heal the heart, promotes self love and love for others.
