Yoga jewellery

12.03.16

As we all probably know, each stone has its own healing and spiritual properties. Certain stones are associated with chakras and promote the flow of energy through those chakras.

 

Chakras are energy crossroads, linking the physical body with the spiritual through an energy canal down the body. Each of the seven chakras has different properties and corresponds to a different mantra, color, stone and shape.

 

 

 

Yoga jewellery is used to help you engage the energy of gemstones with your prayers, your hopes, and dreams. In yoga, you can work on all seven chakras at once on individual ones. It is important to find the right empowering jewellery, relating specifically to that chakra you want to work on.
