Rating (out of 5): 1

Amber, a fossilized tree resin, has been used historically in various cultures for its purported healing properties, particularly in folk medicine and spiritual practices. In the context of emotional sensitivity, amber is traditionally believed to possess calming and balancing energies. It has been worn as jewelry or carried as a talisman to help soothe emotions, relieve stress, and promote an overall sense of well-being. These beliefs are rooted primarily in tradition rather than in scientific studies. There is a long history, especially in Baltic and Eastern European regions, of using amber for its supposed ability to absorb negative energies and foster emotional harmony. However, there is minimal to no rigorous scientific research validating amber's efficacy in directly treating or supporting emotional sensitivity. The mechanism often cited in traditional accounts is metaphysical rather than physiological, involving the transfer or transformation of energy rather than biochemical effects. While amber does contain succinic acid, which has some documented biological activity, there is no evidence that wearing or holding amber significantly affects mood or emotional regulation. Thus, the support for amber’s use in emotional sensitivity comes from tradition and anecdotal accounts rather than from scientific validation.
