Healing is wholeness. It encompasses our whole essence — physical, emotional, mental and spiritual. All healing comes from within and can be initiated from an outside source, which serves to set the healing process in motion. This outside source can appear in many forms, including; Sound, Sense of Touch, and Sense of Sight. No matter which source you use in your own healing, it is all Energy.
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 chakras are blocked, or not in balance, the free flow of energy is impeded, leading to physical, emotional, mental or spiritual dis-ease. When the chakras are unblocked and free-flowing, however, we enjoy optimum health.
Each chakra is associated with specific colours and crystals, and governs different aspects of human emotion and behaviour. Using gemstones with the chakras can have a great healing effect. Wearing 7 chakra jewellery is an excellent way of balancing your chakras and bringing them into alignment. Or you can wear healing jewellery that targets specific chakras on their own.
