An Exploration Into Chakras, Crystals and Stones

 

 

I am a newbie when it comes to chakras and crystals/stones although I am fascinated by the topic and the endless possibilities. I am not really good at meditating and find it extremely difficult to keep my mind still so I am always looking for ways to help me achieve mental calmness and awareness. Through one of the yoga studios I use to attend, I found out that they were hosting a two-hour workshop on crystals/stones and chakras. I immediately registered because I wanted to learn the significance of certain crystal and how they correlate to your chakras. I was also hoping that the workshop could perhaps help me be more in tune with my body and mind.

The guest instructor was Dina Kleiman who is a well-known Medium, Intuitive Reader, Hypnotherapist, Vocal Channel and Energy Healer. Dina was extremely knowledgeable, charismatic and fun to listen to. It was so interesting how she helped us understand our chakras by providing an example from client’s lives and how a particular unbalanced chakra affected their lives. I got to learn a lot during this workshop and got to touch some beautiful crystals/stones from all over the world. She was also very gracious to allow each participant to take home a crystal of their own. I was immediately drawn to a sphere that was brown and green and resembled the tiger eye stone.  I was told that it was an agate but I still think it’s a tiger eye (probably because I am obsessed with tigers as can be seen by my tattoo).

I did get to learn a little bit about the seven chakras in the body and what color and crystal/stone helps bring balance to that particular area in your body.

 

  • The first chakra is the Root chakra and it is located at the base of the spine, it is the one that keeps you grounded/rooted to the earth. The color associated with this area is red and you can use red carnelian, bloodstone, red jasper, black tourmaline and obsidian to help balance this area of your body.

  • The second chakra is your Sacral chakra and it is located in your lower abdominal, it is associated with the realm of emotions, lymphatic system, and your sexuality. The main color is orange and the stones used are orange aventurine, orange and coral calcite, citrine, and orange carnelian.

  • The third chakra is your Solar Plexus and it is located in the upper part of the belly where the diaphragm rests (above the navel) and it is associated with will power, emotions, and self-esteem. The color is yellow and tiger’s eye, yellow jasper, citrine, amber and yellow tourmaline.

  • The fourth chakra is your Heart Chakra and it is located in the center of your chest. It is associated with love, compassion, psychic healing and spiritual aspirations. The color is green and the stones are pink quartz, jade, green calcite, green tourmaline and green aventurine.

 

  • The fifth chakra is your Throat Chakra which is above the collarbone and the center of the throat. This chakra is driven by expression, hearing, and communication. The main color is blue and the stones associated with it are sodalite, aquamarine, turquoise, lapis lazuli, and amazonite.

  • The sixth chakra is your Third Eye and it is found above and between your eyebrows. It is associated with wisdom, imagination, creativity, and intuition. The color is purple and the stones used are amethyst, black obsidian, purple fluorite, and moldavite.

  • The seventh chakra is your Crown Chakra which is at the top of the head and connects us to the divine source of creation and universe. It is about experiencing unity to everything in nature and everyone. It is also about energy, deep thought, and intelligence. The colors are white and violet and some of the stones are clear quartz, amethyst, diamond, selenite and blue lace agate.

 

I will soon begin my journey and exploration in chakra healings…so stay tuned to see my results 😉
