When I was practicing crystal healing on people, the way my teacher taught it was to work with their chakras by placing corresponding crystals and stones on the body while also pointing high frequency crystals such as Quartz on these chakra / acupuncture points on the body – thus facilitating healing energy.
Chakra is a Sanskrit word meaning ‘wheel’ or ‘disc’. They are spinning energy centers in the body which process subtle energy and convert it into chemical hormonal and cellular changes in the body.
Each of the chakra relates to different levels of consciousness, developmental stages of life, emotions, thoughts, colors, sounds, body functions and much more. In order to bring more harmony to our entire system, subtle energy healing and/or vibrational medicine tries to assist the individual in bringing the chakras into balance when they are blocked or overactive.
There appear to be seven major chakras, each associated with a major nerve plexus and a major endocrine gland. They are situated in a vertical line ascending from the base of the spine to the head.
The lowest, called the root chakra, is near the coccyx.
The second is located near the spleen.
The third or solar plexus chakra lies in the upper middle abdomen below the tip of the sternum.
The fourth, also known as the heart chakra, can be found in the midsternal region directly over the heart and thymus gland.
The fifth or throat chakra is situated in the neck near the Adam’s apple.
The sixth or brow chakra is in the region of the mid-forehead and
the seventh or crown chakra is located on top of the head.
