Haidvogel, Ariel, Stress Stone

Ariel Haidvogel

I found it at a flea market passing a table with stones of all different shapes, colors, and sizes.

I went along and picked some up. Some rough, some smooth, some intricate, some plain.

My eyes landing on a flat, oval-shaped stone; the sign above spelling out, Stress Stones

It was like a coffee bean but had swirls of beige and specks of deep red.

Smooth to the touch against my palm pressing my thumb into the divot finding relaxation from the rhythmic cool touch.
