The tourmaline family specializes in recycling, and then balancing, energies. Elbaite, the pink member of the tourmaline family, resonates with the heart chakra. Combined with quartz, pink tourmaline helps to recycle and balance the energies in the heart, taking “negative” experiences and “neutralizes” them, so that you can understand how past experiences have actually benefitted you. That the pink tourmaline is embedded in the quartz means that the its energy has been “turbo-boosted” to be more potent. 

This is a great crystal for someone who has gone through a break up and could use some insight on what was happening in the relationship and what the important takeaways are from their experience.
