DISCOVER YOUR CHAKRA SYSTEM

Chakra (in Sanskrit) means “wheel” and refers to the energy points in the body.

These 7 points are thought to be spinning disks of energy that should stay "open" and aligned. When they are open (unblocked) they allow positive energy to be free flowing through our physical, mental and spiritual beings. Creating harmony and dispelling any feeling of dis-ease.

Every gemstone connects to at least one of your chakra points and can be used to help re-allign that particular energy. There are a few methods in which you can do this.

Wear the stones as jewellery
Meditate with the stones
Keep the stone on your person
Sleep with the stone under your pillow or next to your bed

CROWN

(sahasrara)

The crown chakra is the highest chakra and sits at the crown of the head.

It represents our ability to be fully

connected spiritually. When you fully open the crown chakra you're able to access your higher consciousness.

THIRD EYE

(AJNA)

The Anja, or third-eye

chakra, controls our ability to see the big picture and

connect to intuition.

Think of it as the eye of the soul, It registers information beyond the surface level. Visions and intuitive hits are not uncommon for someone with an open third-eye chakra.

THROAT

(VISHUDDHA)

The throat chakra, gives voice to the heart chakra and controls our ability to communicate our personal power.

When it's functioning at full capacity, it allows us to express ourselves truly and clearly. Someone with a blocked throat chakra will feel like they have trouble finding the words to say how they truly feel.

HEART

(ANAHATA)

The heart chakra is the bridge between the lower chakras (associated with materiality) and the upper chakras (associated with spirituality).

This chakra can influence our ability to give and receive love from others and ourselves. Someone with a blocked heart chakra will have difficulty fully opening up to the people in their life. If someone's heart is open, they can experience deep compassion and empathy.

SOLAR PLEXUS

(MANIPURA)

The solar plexus chakra speaks to your ability to be confident and in control of your life. Think back to the last time you had butterflies or felt a pit in the stomach: That's the Manipura chakra at work.

If your solar plexus chakra is blocked, you might feel overwhelming amounts of shame and self-doubt. Those with open sacral chakras are free to express their true selves.

SACRAL

(SWADHISTHANA)

The Swadhisthana, or sacral chakra, helps inform how we relate to our emotions and the emotions of others.

It also governs creativity and sexual energy. Those with a blocked sacral chakra could feel a lack of control in their lives.

ROOT

(MULADHARA)

The root chakra represents our foundation. On the human body it sits at the base of the spine and gives us the feeling of being grounded.

When the root chakra is open, we feel confident in our ability to withstand challenges and stand on our own two feet. When it's blocked, we feel threatened, as if we're standing on unstable ground.
