Here are the benefits that Meghan’s ring’s birthstones offer:

Peridot: This is the birthstone of the Duchess herself. Experts state that it can alleviate medical conditions of the eye, thyroid, liver, and stomach, as well as sinuses and asthma.

Emerald: This is Prince Harry’s birthstone. According to experts, it can detoxify the blood, cure insomnia, and help lift the mood.

Sapphire: This birthstone is little Archie’s. It is said to help deal with depression, anxiety, insomnia, and stress.

It’s time for an upgrade again! With her daughter Lillibet Diana now four months old, rumor has it that the Duchess is thinking of adding a pearl to the eternity ring, which experts claim helps in promoting better sleep.

Angela attempted to explain how crystals and birthstones work by stating that every substance vibrates at its own set frequency, as science makes apparent. She, therefore, believes that wearing birthstones and crystals can help change your vibration to make it slightly easier to receive healing properties.

The healer also spoke about the benefits she receives from amethyst, which relieves her headaches in no time. Apart from that, she mentions that if you’re trying to stay motivated on your weight loss journey, you should get peridot.
