The Beauty of Jade Bangle

I don't know what got into me but recently I am so into Jade that I bought myself a Jade bangle.

Well, the Chinese states that, "Gold has value; jade is beyond value."

Jade is a non-conductor, so it feels cool to the touch. This coolness is said to elevate and purify one's thoughts, quiet the mind, and help to induce a state of contemplation.

Wearing jade was thought not only to confer greater health and vitality, but also to ward off back luck and misfortune. It was said that the better the quality of the stone, the stronger it's energy will be.

Some women wear their Jade bangles 24/7. I believe one of the reasons people do not take it off is because the size of the bangle is small. Some who wear jade bangle need to use oil to put it on or take it off. The reasons for wearing small jade bangle is to prevent it get into your way and slip off from your wrist. And they claim that it is good for blood circulation.

If you really want to wear a Jade bangle, do consider wearing it on your non-dominant hand. I didn't like my bangle clunking against my watch, so I now wear my watch on my right wrist.The easiest way to find your jade bangle size is to decide which wrist you will wear your bangle. See illustration below. This shows the points on your knuckle you should measure between. Measure the distance between the points.

Buying the right size of jade bangle is extremely important. If its too small or too tight, you will feel uncomfortable and hinder your blood circulation. When it is too big, the jade bangle may come off if you move your hand too widely.

The best way is to physically put on the jade bangle.
