Crystal Healing: Understanding Crystals and Chakras
What are crystals used for?
Many people use crystals as mindfulness tools for meditation and intention-setting. Although the metaphysical benefits of these stones are not scientifically proven, they are traditionally believed to support emotional balance, clarity, grounding, and spiritual wellbeing. Additionally, specific crystal properties are often associated with chakra healing, making them popular for those seeking to enhance their energy flow. Beyond their spiritual uses, crystals are also cherished for their natural beauty and unique energies.
What are chakras?
Chakras are believed to be energy centres within the body that play a vital role in chakra healing, influencing emotional, spiritual, and physical balance. There are seven main chakras, each associated with specific colours, themes, and areas of life. To enhance this balance, mindfulness tools like crystals are often chosen for their unique crystal properties, supporting the energy points.
How do crystals work with chakras?
Different coloured crystals, known for their unique crystal properties, are associated with specific chakras based on symbolism and traditional interpretations. For instance, Rose Quartz is often linked with the Heart Chakra, while Amethyst is commonly tied to the Third Eye Chakra. People use these mindfulness tools by placing or wearing crystals to help focus their intentions on chakra healing and balancing that area of their life.
Are the metaphysical properties of crystals scientifically proven?
No — crystal healing is a spiritual and holistic practice rather than a scientific one. Many people find personal meaning, emotional comfort, and mindfulness benefits from working with crystals, which are considered effective mindfulness tools. The unique crystal properties also play a significant role in chakra healing, contributing to their popularity in wellbeing routines.
How do I choose the right crystal?
Your choice might depend on:
What intention or feeling you want to focus on
Which colours or stones you naturally feel drawn to
A chakra you want to support for chakra healing
The meaning associated with each crystal and its unique crystal properties.
You can explore our mindfulness tools and crystal collection to find what resonates with you.
Using, Caring For & Storing Crystals
How do I cleanse my crystals?
Common cleansing methods for your mindfulness tools include:
- Smudging with sage or incense
- Placing them under moonlight
- Sound cleansing with a singing bowl
- Using selenite plates or bowls
It's important to remember that not all crystals, which possess unique crystal properties, should be cleansed with water. Always check before submerging a stone, especially when considering their role in chakra healing.
How do I charge or programme my crystals?
Charging your crystals typically involves placing them in sunlight, moonlight, or on a selenite charging plate, enhancing their natural crystal properties. To ‘programme’ a crystal as one of your mindfulness tools, hold it in your hands, close your eyes, and set a clear intention — something simple and positive like, 'I welcome clarity and calm,' which can also support your chakra healing journey.
How do I use crystals day-to-day?
You can:
Wear them as jewellery to benefit from their crystal properties
Carry them in a pocket or bag for on-the-go chakra healing
Place them on your desk, bedside, or meditation space as mindfulness tools
Use them during meditation or breathwork to enhance your practice
Add them to a crystal grid for powerful energy alignment
Can crystals go in water?
Some can, some can’t. When it comes to chakra healing, certain stones such as selenite, malachite, and lapis lazuli should never be submerged in water, as they can dissolve or release minerals that may affect their crystal properties. If you're unsure about using these mindfulness tools, feel free to ask us!
How do I store my crystals?
Store your chakra healing crystals somewhere safe and clean, such as a pouch, box, or display shelf. It's important to keep softer stones separate from harder stones to prevent scratches, allowing you to fully appreciate their unique crystal properties as mindfulness tools.
