From Root to Crown: Understanding the Seven Chakras and How to Heal Them


The concept of chakras originated in ancient India and has been integrated into various spiritual practices and healing modalities around the world. The word “chakra” in Sanskrit means “wheel” or “disc,” and it refers to the energy centers in the body that are believed to be linked to our physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being.

At Black River Crystal, we have a deep understanding of the seven chakras and how to heal them through the use of crystals, Reiki therapy, and other energy healing practices. Our store, located at 23013 Sprague Road in Columbia Station, Ohio, is a veritable treasure trove of beautiful crystals that can help balance and energize each of the seven chakras.

The seven chakras are:

1. Root Chakra (Muladhara) – located at the base of the spine, this chakra is associated with feeling grounded and secure. Crystals like red jasper and hematite can help to strengthen this chakra.

2. Sacral Chakra (Svadisthana) – located just below the navel, this chakra is linked to creativity and emotional balance. Crystals like carnelian and orange calcite can help to stimulate this chakra.

3. Solar Plexus Chakra (Manipura) – located in the upper abdomen, this chakra is associated with personal power and confidence. Crystals like citrine and golden tiger’s eye can help to energize this chakra.

4. Heart Chakra (Anahata) – located in the center of the chest, this chakra is linked to love and compassion. Crystals like rose quartz and green aventurine can help to open and heal this chakra.

5. Throat Chakra (Vishuddha) – located in the throat, this chakra is associated with communication and self-expression. Crystals like blue lace agate and sodalite can help to balance this chakra.

6. Third Eye Chakra (Ajna) – located in the forehead between the eyebrows, this chakra is linked to intuition and inner wisdom. Crystals like amethyst and labradorite can help to activate this chakra.

7. Crown Chakra (Sahasrara) – located at the top of the head, this chakra is associated with spiritual connection and oneness. Crystals like clear quartz and selenite can help to open and balance this chakra.
