    How to use heart chakra stones for chakra balancing?

    The heart chakra is considered as the doorway to the higher chakra dimensions of healing and spirituality. Healing crystals that function at higher vibration could also be used to work on heart chakra balancing. You may first start with stones directly associated with the heart, such as the green and pink healing stones mentioned above. Once you become comfortable using these crystals, you may begin to use the higher vibration stones. For a direct contact, place the healing stone on the center of your chest. You may either lie down or relax in that position for a few minutes or longer, or you may decide to wear the stone as a piece of jewelry.

    Personal use of chakra stones for the heart

    The healing properties of the chakra healing stones can serve you in your daily life as well. Imbalance in the heart chakra may be associated with lung issues, repeated bronchitis or lung infections, circulatory problems or heart condition.

    The use of healing crystals may provide additional comfort and focusing energy and vibration in the areas that need it the most. Heart chakra stones can provide support in times of emotional distress, especially when dealing with relationship issues. In this situation, you may prefer to use pink stones, such as rose quartz for the heart chakra.

    A way to keep a heart chakra stone or crystal close to you is by simply carrying the stone in your pocket or near the heart of chest area. Add the healing stone of your choice to a pendant or bracelet and you will benefit from the healing power of the crystal all day. Another way to get the benefit of the stone is to strategically place it in your house or environment where you spend the most time. For instance, you can put a rose quartz near your bed or display it in a nice area of your living room.

    Wear a cleansed and charged healing stone as jewelry or place it over your heart during meditation, rest, or yoga practice to receive its restorative opening and balancing effects.
