🌈 Discover how 7 chakras and stones boost your energy and well-being.

Welcome to Mountain Jade’s exclusive series on 7 Chakras—a deep dive into the hidden links between your body’s energy centers, your overall health, and the power of natural stones.

🌟 What Are 7 Chakras?
The word chakra comes from Sanskrit, meaning “wheel” or “circle,” symbolizing the spinning energy centers in the body. Every person has 7 main chakras, each aligned along the spine from the base to the crown of the head. Each chakra corresponds to different energies, emotions, and physical states.

👑 Crown Chakra (Sahasrara)
Color: Violet / White / Silver
Location: Top of the head
Symbol: Thousand-petal lotus
Element: Cosmic Energy
The Crown Chakra is your gateway to spiritual enlightenment, divine wisdom, and universal consciousness. This is the ultimate step on the chakra journey.

Balance It With:
Mantra: Silence / OM
Foods: Fasting or light, detoxifying foods
Crystals:

  • Clear Quartz
  • Amethyst

🔮 Third Eye Chakra (Ajna)

Element: Earth
The Root Chakra is your foundation. It’s all about survival, security, and connection to the Earth. A balanced Root Chakra makes you feel grounded and stable. If it's blocked, you might feel anxious, fearful, or disconnected.

Balance It With:
Mantra: LAM

Crystals:

  • Garnet
  • Ruby
  • Red Rutilated Quartz
  • Red Agate

Benefits: Improved health, stronger vitality, positive outlook, and better relationships (especially helpful for business-oriented individuals).

Balanced chakras = balanced energy. When these energy centers are blocked or overactive, it can lead to physical discomfort, emotional imbalance, and low vitality. That’s why chakra healing—especially using natural stones—can play such a key role in your wellness journey.

🧘  How to Start Your Chakra Healing Journey

  • Meditation + natural stones = powerful synergy
  • Combine crystal therapy with yoga, aromatherapy, and mindful eating
  • Listen to your body’s signals—your symptoms can reveal which chakra needs help
  • Practice consistently; healing is a journey, not a race

✨ Your energy tells your story. Balance your chakras, and you align with the life you’re meant to live. Stay tuned for more healing insights from Mountain Jade.
