ABOUT US
Auralite is a business startup and multi-platform outlet dedicated to promoting wellbeing and building better lives for the millions affected by mental illness and their loved ones. What started as two sisters with a passion for jewelry-design and raising awareness about mental health within their community has blossomed into a leading initiative on mental wellbeing.
Created in 2021, Auralite leads initiatives to promote mental health by instilling hope and raising awareness about mental illness through providing support and education that was not always available to those in need.
OUR MISSION
1 in 5 US adults experience mental illness.
With millions of individuals around the world being affected by mental illness each year and even more strains on mental health being heightened after the COVID-19 pandemic, the issue of positive mental health is integral to the wellbeing and development of our society. Auralite aims to promote mental wellbeing by leading fundraisers, educational seminars, and workshops in order to simultaneously instill hope and remove the stigma surrounding mental health illnesses. Wellbeing embraces more than just physical health and the “absence of illness,” and accounts for the entire person, both body and mind. Its approach to “health” includes the presence of positive mental states, moods, and emotions, and identifies the state of happiness to achieve a healthy life. We have seen several of our peers and loved ones experience isolation, depression, and other mental health disorders. Auralite is devoted to intersect mental health advocacy with sustainability and elegance to achieve a common goal of creating a better future for those struggling with mental health disorders and their loved ones.70% of the profits gained are donated to mental health organizations, funding seminars, workshops, and better treatment for mental illness.

Our achievements
Our name, Auralite, comes from the crystal Auralite, which is also known as the Kindred Spirit Crystal or Red Cap Amethyst. It is one of the Earth’s oldest minerals, a rare blend of crystals composed of 23 minerals. Auralite is also called “A New Stone of the New Consciousness” because of its abundance of metaphysical properties and healing powers. It is particularly known for eliminating mental influence and protecting against other people’s thoughts and beliefs, as well as instilling clarity and spiritual awareness. Our goal at Auralite is to bring awareness to mental health, and we hope that our name can serve as a gentle reminder to connect with your roots and relax.
Our signature logo incorporates Lavender plants, which has been popularly used for decades as a calming and relaxing herb that can ease tension in our daily lives.
