Trilobites are used for help in healing with the eyes and headaches. They are also used in help with leadership and management roles. Trilobites are hard-shelled, segmented creatures that existed over 500 million years ago. Trilobites were among the first arthropods, and flourished in the sea. When its body grew to large for its shell it flaked off the free checks and climbed out to grow another one. Their fossil distribution is found worldwide, although most of what Charles Albert uses is the Elrathia Trilobite, found in Utah.
