Crystal
Healing involves the “ancient art of laying on of stones” which has been
traced back to the lost civilization of Atlantis. Crystals are attuned to the
cosmic force of the universe and as a result are able to channel extensive
energy to anyone whose intention is to tune in and receive. A Crystal Healing is
an extremely powerful and unique experience. Crystals are unified vibrational
centres that resonate with each person in extraordinary ways. Every type of
crystal or stone is comprised of different properties and has unique magical
energies and vibrations to share with the receiver for the purpose of healing
and the elevation of consciousness. Crystal Healing addresses all levels of our
being... physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual. With crystal layouts the
aura can be cleansed, traumas released and an opportunity is created for you to
embrace your truth and divinity.
In
a session, a clear intent is set which we arrive at through discussion. With
that intent we attune to the energy and vibrations of the specific crystals
placed on or around your chakras. I am then guided to channel energy to areas
that require release and healing. Each session is tailored to your individual
needs.
Sessions
can embody a variety of layouts including Chakra Cleansing, Chakra Balancing,
Processing, Purging, Inter-Dimensional Travel and Specific Power Layouts. The
sessions are once again very gentle and yet extremely powerful in restoring and
maintaining wellness of mind, body and spirit.
For
those unfamiliar with the Chakra system essentially these are energy areas in
our bodies that are associated with various organs, glands, planes of evolution,
and consciousness. They allow for our life force to flow through us, fully
permitting us to connect with our true path, light and divinity. Our chakras can
become blocked when we hold repressed mental and emotional experiences that
prevent us from being fully in flow. Our chakras act almost like valves,
allowing for the energy to flow between each centre. When in balance an
individual feels a oneness and a connectedness to themselves and the universe.
What is The Chakra System?
Knowledge of the chakra system comes from ancient Indian
texts. These describe energy centres or chakras in the body, with seven
major points arranged along the spinal column. The seven chakras are used
in crystal healing.
Chakras are spinning vortices
that focus certain frequencies of energy. When a chakra accumulates
stress, it becomes less able to assimilate and direct the appropriate energy
into the body.
Each chakra has a particular focus
of action but they are all interrelated. When one chakra becomes disturbed
it can upset the functioning of other chakras. Over time this may
contribute to physical illness or emotional upset.
Depending
on your surroundings and activities, some chakras may be more active than
others. It is best when healing, to seek to achieve an overall balance in
the chakra system, rather than focusing on only one or two areas.
Each
of the chakras is linked with physical functions as well as emotional and mental
states, and is also associated with a colour

A Simple Chakra Healing
Crystals that are the same colour as a chakra will enhance its natural
qualities, whatever the situation. For a simple balancing therapy, place
one stone of the appropriate colour on each chakra area for a few minutes.
Use small tumbled stones or crystal points. Choose your stones and
arrange them in sequence beside where you will be lying. When you are
ready, you can easily pick up the stones and place them on your body without
them falling off.
The
first or root chakra is at the base of the spine. Linked to the
adrenal glands. Use a black or red
stone between your legs to balance physical energy, motivation and
practicality, and to promote a sense of stability.
The
second or sacral chakra is in the lower abdomen, below the navel.
Linked to the reproductive organs. Use
an orange stone here to balance
creativity, feelings and sexual drive, and to release stress and
blocks in your life that prevent enjoyment.
The
third or solar plexus chakra is just below the ribcage. Linked to the
pancreas and spleen. Use a yellow or gold stone in this position to clear your thoughts, reduce
anxiety and improve confidence.
The
fourth or heart chakra is in the centre of the chest. Linked to the
heart and thymus gland. Use a green or
pink stone here to balance your relationships, personal development, direction and sharing.
The
fifth or throat chakra is at the throat. Linked to the thyroid
gland. Use a light blue stone here to ease
communication difficulties, express yourself and improve the flow of
information.
The
sixth chakra is the third eye in the centre of the brow. Linked to the
pineal or pituitary glands. Use an indigo
or dark blue stone here, to increase understanding, perception and
knowledge, and to promote
intuitive skills and memory.
The
seventh chakra is the crown, situated just above the top of the
head. Linked to the pineal or pituitary glands. A white or violet stone placed in this position integrates and
balances the whole chakra system and channels Universal life energy into the
body, balancing the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual aspects of the
self. It stimulates fine levels of perception, intuition and
inspiration.
