Your body is more than physical. Running through you is a complex system of energy centres known as chakras — a Sanskrit word meaning "wheel" or "circle." When these energy centres are balanced and flowing freely, you feel vibrant, grounded, creative, loving, confident and connected. When they're blocked or overactive, you may experience anxiety, physical discomfort, emotional overwhelm or a sense of being spiritually disconnected. Crystals are one of the most beautiful and effective tools for restoring chakra balance — and at Heavenly Crystals Online, it's one of our greatest passions to help you find the right stone for every energy centre.
Root Chakra — Muladhara

How to Use Crystals for Chakra Healing
Place the corresponding crystal directly on the chakra point while lying down. Breathe deeply and set an intention for balance and healing. Leave for 10–20 minutes. You can also carry the crystal in your pocket, wear it as jewellery, or place it in your environment near where you spend the most time. Once you've chosen your chakra crystals, learn how to cleanse and charge your chakra crystals to keep them working at their highest vibration.
Your chakras are always communicating with you — through your emotions, your body and your energy levels. Crystals are your allies in keeping that communication clear and flowing.
