With my upcoming Chakra series, I will be discussing different ways one can help heal themselves through working on their Chakras. For each one, I suggest different crystals and essential oils to use. Here are simple ways to use these tools:
Crystals:
Both our bodies and crystals have subtle electromagnetic fields. That means that we can transfer energies between us and crystals. We can absorb beneficial energies from the crystal and the crystal can draw negative energies from us.
Each Chakra is associated with a specific colour. Stones with the same colour will resonate with that Chakra.
Each stone is placed on the corresponding Chakra, either on the front or on the back of the body. As you lie there, meditate for a short while on each Chakra, perhaps saying a powerful mantra or affirmation that speaks to you for each Chakra before moving on to the next.
It is important to cleanse or magnetize your crystals regularly. Use sage to do a smudge or leave the crystals out in the sunlight or moonlight regularly.
Essential oils:
With direct application:
ALWAYS add the essential oil to a carrier oil before putting it on your skin.
Add 6 drops essential oil to 1 ounce carrier volume for 1% dilution
Carrier oil suggestions: coconut oil, jojoba oil, apricot kernel oil, sweet almond oil, olive oil
When diffusing the oils:
Diffuse in a well-ventilated area
Diffuse for 30-minute intervals and take regular breaks
Make sure pets are able to leave the room if they don’t like the scents
Follow dilution guidelines: 2 drops essential oil to 100ml carrier volume for 1% dilution.
