What can you do with chakra stones?
The easiest thing to do is to look at the chakras and decide which one of them you are struggling with the most. Then wear a pendant or beaded necklace of that stone continually until you start to notice a shift. (If you click the links to the gemstones above, you’ll find out more about each one, and see a selection of jewelry to choose from!)
The second thing you can do is a body layout. This is where you lay down and place a crystal on each of your chakras. To do this you need a set of 7 crystals that correspond to each chakra. Crystal chakra sets are a convenient way to buy all your chakra stones at once!
