7 Chakra Gemstone with Clear Crystal Quartz Bracelet (8mm) - Gift Idea

Chakra is a Sanskrit word meaning “wheel”.  A chakra is like a vortex:  a constantly revolving wheel of energy.  These vortexes connect the subtle bodies and act as transducers for life-force energy.

The chakras distribute the life force through the physical and subtle bodies.  They are the source of physical, emotional, mental and spiritual energy.

Traditionally, there are seven major Chakras associated with the physical body.  They are aligned with the spine and located in the base of the spine, the lower abdomen (sacral), the solar plexus, the heart, the throat, the centre of the forehead (third eye), and the crown of the head.

When our Chakra's are blocked, or not in balance, the free flow of energy is impeded, leading to physical, emotional, mental or spiritual dis-ease.  When the Chakra's are unblocked and free-flowing, however, we enjoy optimum health.

Each Chakra is associated with specific colours, crystals and gemstones that govern each different aspects of human emotion, well-being and behaviour. 

Using gemstones with the Chakra's can have a great healing effect.
