Many people use chakra stones to help enliven and balance their body’s energy centers. Chakra stones can be placed directly onto chakra points during spiritual healing sessions or used in other energy boosting techniques like crystal grids and grids.

When selecting chakra healing stones, trust your instinct. Each crystal carries its own distinct energy that you should consider before selecting one for yourself.

Setting Intentions

Chakra healing stones have long been thought to hold energies that resonate with each of the seven major energy centres (or chakras) within the human body, thus increasing qualities, abilities and spiritual powers associated with each chakra – making them powerful tools for meditation, healing and personal growth.

When using chakra healing stones, it is important to set an intention. This could range from drawing in abundance or dispelling anger – whatever works for you! When combined together, their energies create a powerful synergy.

Setting intentions can be achieved either by placing a chakra healing stone directly onto a particular part of your body or by creating an energetic grid using crystals such as citrine and amethyst – choose one which best meets your goal and make the grid your own!

Cleansing

Chakra stones offer restorative properties to restore spiritual balance and emotional wellness in any space they are placed, from jewelry to creating crystal grids to energy healing sessions or simply setting them on your desk. Discovering how to properly cleanse and care for these sacred tools will allow you to tap into all their potential.

Keep your chakra stones cleansed regularly to release any negative energy they’ve absorbed, and choose the cleansing method that feels most suitable to both yourself and the stones. This could involve washing them under running water, placing them in a bowl of sea salt, wafting sage or palo santo over them, or leaving them charging on a selenite charging plate under sunlight or moonlight for some hours – whatever makes sense to you and them!

Charging

Crystals should be regularly charged to maintain their healing energies. After cleansing and before using again, charging recharges the stones with pure energy that can help manifest your intentions.

Charge chakra healing gemstones using one of several techniques: sunlight or moonlight exposure, smudging with sage or palo santo, or placing on a selenite charging plate. Use your intuition to find which method best matches the crystals you possess.

Place your crystals under a lunar eclipse for another powerful way of cleansing them from any negative energy, which is said to rid them of negativity. Check online or calendar listings to see when this lunar event occurs.

Programming

Use chakra healing stones to activate and balance the seven energy centres that affect physical, emotional, mental and spiritual wellbeing. Stress, trauma, illness or simply life itself may cause these chakras to become blocked or unbalanced causing blockages to arise in them that require attention from these stones in order to get your energy moving freely again.

Crystals designed to unblock and heal chakras can be an incredible aid in unblocking them and relieving physical, emotional and energetic symptoms associated with blocked chakras. From Black Tourmaline for grounding the Root Chakra to Rose Quartz’s heart-opening power for opening the Heart Chakra – there are numerous choices when selecting crystals for chakra healing.

Make chakra crystals part of your everyday by programming them for specific intentions and using them during meditation or visualization practices. Or add them to a crystal grid so they can focus and amplify their healing energies more effectively.

Storing

Once you’ve cleansed and charged your chakra healing stones, it’s essential that they be stored safely so as to avoid taking on any negative energy and maintain peak condition for use.

Some people choose to create a crystal altar as part of their practice, whether that’s on a shelf in their home or an area on their wall that feels sacred and special. When choosing your spot on the wall for your altar, ensure it has plenty of open space without clutter and ensure crystals can remain safe from dust accumulation and scratches.

Group crystals by color and chakra for easier selection for particular healing sessions or intentions. Some individuals find it useful to store each crystal individually in its own bag as well.
