【The Chakras And Stones】
Jun
Many people believe that stones have the ability to hold large amounts of therapeutic energy and power because it takes millions of years for crystals and other stones to form underground.
Crystals have been used for thousands of years, with ancient people using them for magical and spiritual powers. Although there is no evidence to show that crystal healing works and is not a form of medicine, more and more people are being open to trying the possible benefits that crystals bring.
Crystals are believed to hold vibrational energy and believed to transmit this energy to you and balance your emotional, physical and spiritual energies.
Chakras are considered to be your most important energy centers, and crystal can truly assist you in restoring your spiritual energies within these vortexes of energy.
Each chakra can be balanced and healed by chakra stones and crystals.
What is Chakra ?
Chakra is an ancient meditation practice and originates from an old Sanskrit word, translating to ‘wheel’. Chakra represents the 7 chakras around your body, with 7 different centres of energy. Each chakra is connected to one area of the body and an emotional state. It is believed that by balancing these energies your emotional, physical and spiritual wellbeing will benefit.
