Lithotherapy
To help balance our chakras, several methods exist, all with their own effects and influences on them. Once you have opened your chakras, it is time to rebalance them. One of the most effective methods is lithotherapy. So how does lithotherapy work, and what are its effects on your chakras? Answer right away in this article on lithotherapy and chakras.
What is lithotherapy?
Our body is in constant energetic fluctuation, non-stop, throughout our life. This fluctuation varies in intensity according to the events we experience on a daily basis, such as :
• Stress
• The joys and sorrows
• The desires
• Fears
• Love
• Social and environmental interactions...
Usually, when everything is going well, the energies circulate correctly, and our mind keeps only the essence of our experiences, i.e. joy, to stabilize the balance of the chakras. This joy is recovered from one of the daily events. Only when these are too intense, the chakra system can be disturbed and become blocked.
It is precisely to manage these fluctuations that the Mineral Stones can help you. They are concretely the most effective to treat these dysfunctions, mainly emotional, and eliminate almost instantaneously the major part of the blockage.
To understand well, the stones are always active on the same frequencies (contrary to humans), which allows them to generate more good energy waves. What is called lithotherapy is the energetic connection of the stones directly to the human, to balance one's own energies, and to feel the benefits quickly. The virtues of crystals have been recognized for thousands of years, as they were already present in ancient energy healing rituals.
How to choose a stone to balance its chakras?
To choose the stone that will help to balance a chakra correctly, it is very important that you have a good knowledge of yourself, of your personal feeling, and especially of your chakras. A simple tip to help you choose the right stone is simply to appeal to your curiosity. It is an excellent way to discover, as you go through your experience with lithotherapy, which crystals are the most effective for you.
You don't need to learn them by heart: you just have to select a few, the main ones you prefer. For the rest, don't hesitate to read books that talk about the subject, which will be much more detailed. Your learning must always be benevolent, never reluctant.
Finally, your intuition can be an incredible engine to determine the stone you need. Generally, by instinct, you will always choose a stone that corresponds to you in the present moment, very often to harmonize the energies that are too present, or on the contrary, to help those that are understaffed.
What stones can be associated with your chakras?
It would be too tedious to list all the stones and their numerous energetic capacities. Here is a summary of the main crystals, and the different chakras associated with them.
1. The root chakra is easily balanced with Jasper, especially when combined with other minerals. Indeed, it relieves difficult digestion, gastric reflux and constipation. Its beneficial actions have a very powerful impact on healing, but it also significantly strengthens tissues and the immune system. Quite similarly, Jasper breschia has a phenomenal strength. Directly connected to the root chakra, it helps to harmonize it.
2. To balance the sacred chakra, try an orange stone such as Carnelian, Amber, Orange Calcite or Bronzite. The benefits of Carnelian are mainly related to the adrenal glands and stress management.
3. To open your solar plexus chakra with a crystal, simply use Citrine. It is very effective: the vibrations of the stone directly influence the body, counterbalancing the energetic variations. Its field of action is vast, because it also has an impact on the intestinal flora, the kidneys and the pancreas. The solar plexus also appreciates Yellow Jade or Sulphur.
4. The balance of the heart chakra can be maintained with the help of Malachite. This helps to gently detoxify the body and promote self-healing energies. Similarly, Aventurine, Emerald or Green Tourmaline also have an important role in the well-being of the heart chakra.
5. To develop the communication of your throat chakra, use light blue stones such as Angelite, Blue Agate, Aquamarine... On the other hand, if you wish to unblock the energies of your throat chakra, prefer blue-green and turquoise blue minerals such as Amazonite or Turquoise.
6. If you are looking to open your Third Eye Chakra, the stones par excellence will undoubtedly be Cyclops Agate and Black Obsidian. To maintain intuition, letting go and concentration, choose instead Prehnite, Azurite, Cyanite, Blue Sapphire...
7. Finally, to heal your crown chakra, Amethyst and Lapis lazuli are recommended. Indeed, they clean your blood, and play the role of an antiseptic for your body. They are also full of good energies to evolve to a higher spiritual level, and improve the clarity of your mind.
Once again, there's no secret: you just need to read up on each stone one by one and learn more about their benefits.
A practical exercise in the use of stones
As calmly as possible, lie down with your arms along your body, and gradually empty your mind. If you wish, you can light an incense or candle near you. Then, gently take the stone or stones you wish to use during your treatment, and place them on the chakra dedicated to it. Breathe deeply and quietly, it is not a race!
Now, disconnect yourself from dark and obscure thoughts that are disturbing your relaxation. Focus on the stones themselves. You are likely to feel a warm sensation: this is completely normal, it is only the energy of the stones that is circulating.
Congratulations, you have successfully completed your first energy treatment session using lithotherapy!
