Using crystals in meditation, yoga, Reiki, or even just as jewelry can gradually align, strengthen, and restore a balanced flow of energy in the root chakra. Their dense crystalline vibration powerfully impacts the subtle energy body.

I love finding handmade jewelry with balancing stones, on Etsy.

Here are a few key ways that crystals can help balance and heal the root chakra:

• Grounding - Stones like hematite, black tourmaline, and smoky quartz help ground excessive energy in the root chakra and establish a sense of stability. They calm anxiety and relax the nervous system.

• Cleansing - Crystals like obsidian, jet, and black onyx absorb and transmute dense low-vibrational energies that may be blocking the root chakra. This clears and purifies the chakra.

• Energizing - Stones like garnet, ruby, and red jasper infuse the root chakra with nourishing and vitalizing energy. They get energy moving if the chakra is sluggish.

• Protection - Protective stones like black tourmaline and black onyx provide psychic protection and create an energetic boundary at the root chakra and aura. This helps you feel safe.

• Courage - Crystals like tiger's eye enhance inner resilience, determination, and bravery - all emotions related to a balanced root chakra.

• Manifestation - The root chakra governs our ability to manifest and create abundance. Stones like citrine can boost manifestation power.

• Intention - Focusing healing intentions into root chakra crystals magnifies their effect. Explicitly programming them creates targeted results.
