Using Chakra Healing Stones

Cleansed and charged healing stones are most effective when they’re in close proximity to the affected chakra. The most common approach is to wear them as jewelry or placed directly over the chakra in need of healing. To bolster the effects of healing stones, you may also place them around your home, personal space, or office.

Learning how to use healing stones and gems properly is key. All stones possess their own vibrational frequency. So it is important to understand the meanings and properties of gemstones before employing their help. Choose stones that have the same vibrational frequency as the chakra in need of cleansing and balancing.

As with any energy healing approach, remember, it can take a while for stones to heal chakra imbalance and for symptoms to completely subside.

An open, balanced energy center enables you to feel confident and empowered. When the solar plexus chakra, also known as the Manipura chakra. falls out of balance a variety of physical and non-physical signs may manifest. In addition to feeling emotionally unsteady, lethargic, and sometimes even aggressive, you may also experience:

• respiratory issues
• eating disorders
• digestive problems
• anxiety
• hypoglycemia
• depression

A healthy diet and regular exercise are needed to maintain chakra balance and keep energy flowing. But there can be times where a healthy lifestyle just isn’t enough.
