Crystals and Your Chakras

The subtle energy with which different crystals vibrate can be matched to your own vibrations to soothe, heal and balance your body and spirit.

Our bodies contain seven energy centers, known as Chakras, that govern energy flow and the interaction of our physical and spiritual bodies. These Chakras run along a horizontal line, from the top of your head to the base of your spine. Stimulating your Chakras Each Chakra is stimulated by subtle energy vibrations - the same ones that resonate within crystals. When we feel ill, depressed or out of sorts, it is often because the energy flow through our body has become disrupted or blocked - out of tune with our spiritual self. Crystals can be used to stimulate your Chakras and realign our body's vibrations. Lie down with crystals placed over each of your Chakra points to stimulate and balance the flow of energy through your body. Refer to the "Guide to Your Chakras" for more information on stimulating your body's energy centers.

Hold a crystal loosely in your hands as you meditate to give your Chakras gentle stimulation. Keep Your Crystals Close ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ Placing a crystal close to your Chakras will help to balance the energy vibrations between the gem and your body. You can do this by placing your crystal directly on top of your own Chakra while you lie down, holding it in your hand beside the Chakra, or wearing it in a piece of jewelry that sits close to the Chakra. Wearing colored crystals in jewelry helps to keep your Chakras stimulated through the day. Chakra Combinations Other ways to stimulate your Chakras include scent, color, sound and your senses. You can combine any of these with your crystal to give you even more benefits. Crystals and Oils Enhance your crystals with aromatherapy. Rub aromatherapy oil onto your crystal before you place it onto your Chakra Point. Then spend a few minutes in a quiet meditation while the crystal and scent work their magick.
