What are Chakras?
Chakras are special energy centers and energy channels in the human energy field.
They manage and maintain our physical, emotional, mental and spiritual aspects.
Chakras absorb and process energy with higher vibration frequencies, allowing energy to be properly absorbed and used to change our personal energy.
Chakras are connection points, and energy will flow from one person to another. Chakras are constantly rotating, entering a center of power or flowing to a higher energy dimension.
Chakra means “wheel of light” in Sanskrit, and a chakra is a wheel of light. A person’s main chakra rotates in a clockwise direction. Each chakra center has a different color reflecting a different vibration frequency.
The seven chakras are the seven main chakras in the human energy field, which control the seven important energy centers in the human body.
The seven chakras affect the human body’s mental state and the physical body’s material basis.
The higher the chakra energy goes, the more it affects our personal spiritual awakening, thinking consciousness, awareness, etc.
The lower the chakra energy goes, the more it affects our physical state, instinctive feelings, material manifestation, etc.
The chakra is like a bridge connecting us to ourselves, souls, and the universe. The energy level of this bridge will make us have different auras and go to different directions in life.
Seven Chakra Healing
First Chakra— Muladhara Chakra
- The location of the root chakra: in the middle of the pubic bone. Chinese medicine also mentions the “perineum”, which is roughly in the adrenal glands, anus, bladder, and rectum.
- Representative colors: black and red.
- Represented energy: survival instinct, sense of security, ability to implement, connection with the material world, connection with the earth, mobility, sense of existence, stability, etc.
- Corresponding crystals: obsidian crystals, black agate, red agate, black tourmaline, smoky quartz, garnet, etc.
The impact of the imbalance of the root chakra energy:
- Intimate relationships: Not confident enough in getting along, feeling that the other party does not love you enough, and need to repeatedly confirm your position in the other party’s heart. You need to keep track of the other party’s dynamics at all times. Once you feel that you can’t grasp it, you will feel uneasy, suspicious, imaginary, and anxious.
- Close family relationships: There is a gap with parents, lack of intimacy, and many disputes when getting along. In fact, you are eager to get your parents’ approval.
- Interpersonal relationships: Keep a distance from others, it is difficult to truly trust the other party, and feel that no matter what the other party does, you can’t really satisfy yourself. You often do it alone and find it difficult to integrate into the team.
- Self-inner level: Either too self-centered or not confident enough. Don’t believe in love, find it difficult to accept the kindness of others, and always feel that the other party’s purpose is not pure. Nerves are always tense, full of anxiety and uneasiness about work and life, eager for money, but it is difficult to enjoy the pleasure brought by money.
External manifestations: fast speaking speed, fast walking, fast eating speed, easy to make demands on others, irritable, insomnia, love to eat, etc.
The root chakra is the foundation of energy, the root, and the foundation. It is the most down-to-earth of all chakras. It is the connection with our mother earth. The energy of our body’s chakra system must be absorbed and transformed by the root chakra before being transported to other chakras. Imagine if our roots are blocked and the foundation is not solid, then how can we guard against the howling of wind and rain. Therefore, whether the energy of the root chakra is unobstructed affects how we promote our life process.
The subject of the root chakra is a sense of security. Most people lack confidence and a sense of security. In fact, the root chakra of most people is the least active.
Daily healing methods:
- Yoga, running, Tai Chi, standing, sit-ups, crunches, abdominal core training, etc.
- Contact with nature, mountain climbing, walking, barefoot walking on the land to make your body have substantial contact with the earth.
- Music therapy, listen to music that heals the energy of the root chakra. For example, crystal bowl music and bell and drum sounds.
- Crystal therapy, wear crystals related to the energy of the root chakra, or place the crystal near the perineum.
- Color therapy, use more black or red.
- Food therapy, eat black or red food. For example, black fungus, black beans, tomatoes, carrots, etc.
Second Chakra—Manipura Chakra
- Manipura Chakra location: between the pubic bone and the navel, in the lower abdomen.
- Represents energy: creativity, fertility, attraction, endocrine, desire to reproduce, feeling
- Corresponding crystals: red agate, garnet, red rabbit hair, etc.
The umbilical chakra controls our uterus, ovaries, testicles, prostate and even controls our body circulation, affecting our sexual ability, enthusiasm, creativity, vitality, regeneration, fertility, etc.
Weak energy in the umbilical chakra will affect our reproductive health, poor body circulation, impotence, sexual indifference, insufficient blood, or social, money and power problems.
Excessive imbalance of energy in the creative chakra will lead to a person’s excessive pursuit of physical pleasure and excessive enjoyment of material things, addiction to food, poison, alcohol, sex, addiction to pleasure in the material world, etc. Can’t stand being alone, frequent love and break up quickly, emotional ups and downs, etc.
The energy imbalance of the navel chakra will affect a person’s over-dependence on others, lack of self-assertion, suppression of self-feelings, self-denial, stubbornness, low mobility, depression and lack of vitality, difficulty in feeling relaxed and comfortable in social activities, inability to view sexual behavior normally, etc.
The Creation Chakra is a very important chakra for women. Ensuring the smooth flow of the energy of the Creation Chakra and enhancing the energy of the Creation Chakra can enhance female energy, not only making women more radiant, but also ensuring the stability and peace of body and emotions, as well as the health of the reproductive system.
Reasons for the imbalance of the energy of the navel chakra:
- Excessive pursuit of material, excessive release of ability to the outside, and neglect of self-adjustment and rest. Many people do not really love their bodies and sacrifice their physical health for many external pursuits.
- Suppressing self-feelings, forcibly suppressing emotions in order to adapt to the fast-paced society, causing emotions to stagnate in the heart and form blocked energy.
- No sex life or it is difficult for oneself to enjoy sex life, and no real acceptance of one’s normal physical needs.
- Under the reproductive pressure of family or society, psychological rebound occurs.
- Sitting for long periods of time, not knowing how to take care of your reproductive system all year round, and lack of exercise will lead to energy blockage.
Daily healing methods:
- Try to accept your own needs for your body.
- Stay with your emotions and feel them. You can also record what kind of experience it brings you.
- Yoga therapy.
- Exercise, especially core training.
- Drink water. You can also try to make yourself flower tea. You can consider wolfberry + red dates + longan.

Third Chakra – Solar Chakra

- Represents energy: The solar chakra is the main center of material manifestation, in charge of personal power, will, decisiveness, power, and boundaries.
- Corresponding crystals: citrine, yellow tiger eye stone, golden hair crystal, amber, etc.
The solar chakra helps matter transform energy. The solar chakra controls and dominates our digestive organs, kidneys, stomach, adrenal glands, digestive system, and is responsible for energy conversion and distribution to other parts of the body.
The solar chakra is also our initial connection with our mother. We receive energy from our mother through the umbilical cord to provide nutrients for our life.
The solar chakra is a key channel in the human chakra, and its most important task is to transform energy. Whether it is the food we eat or the emotions we generate, they must be transformed through the navel chakra.
The solar chakra is the chakra with the most self-identity, values and personal power, and it communicates the most with matter.
Because this is when we start from the solar chakra, we gradually transition from instinct and personal feelings to social relationships dominated by interpersonal relationships. We also begin to fully exert our energy to pursue power and material, gain recognition and find a group with common values.
When the solar chakra lacks energy:
- Our aura is very weak, and we are easily affected by the outside world. We are weak and sick, and we cannot protect our energy field.
- We are not organized and planned, and often make things more and more complicated.
- We are not self-disciplined enough, and we are prone to give up halfway.
- We have no sense of boundaries, lack principles, and are prone to give in and compromise on many things.
- We lack self-confidence.
- We are emotionally indifferent.
- We have a bad digestive system.
- We are not optimistic enough, and we are not interested in many things, and we are passive in doing things.
- We lack a sense of responsibility, cannot take on major responsibilities, and have no motivation to do things, etc.
When the solar chakra has excessive energy:
- We are arrogant, aggressive, have a strong desire for control, like exciting things, and pursue power and material things.
- We do not accept other people’s rebuttals and criticisms, and we love face.
- We have super strong motivation, are excited, and work non-stop to achieve certain goals.
- Have many demands, lose temper, be stubborn, like to blame others, often have stomach cramps and gastrointestinal problems.
- Do not allow others to be better than themselves, and be competitive.
- It is difficult to be quiet for a moment, have difficulty falling asleep, etc.
Daily healing methods:
- Read books. Especially biographies and history books.
- Try to break through your fear.
- Diet therapy, eat yellow foods. For example, oranges, mangoes, ginger, lemonade, etc.
- Color therapy, use yellow color
- Crystal therapy, wear yellow crystal or put crystal on your navel for meditation.
- Meditation therapy, visualize the yellow light expanding around your navel, making you feel very warm and full.
- You can light more scented candles at home, or keep the house bright.
- Massage, especially the back and abdomen. You can massage the abdomen yourself (wrap the thumb around the other four fingers and make a fist, then push the abdomen from top to bottom. Or circle the fingers around the navel in a clockwise direction).
The Fourth Chakra – Heart Chakra
- Heart chakra location: between the breasts of the human body.
- Representative ability: The heart chakra controls our heart, lungs, and thymus. The heart chakra is responsible for our feelings, emotional reactions, ability to love, compassion, kindness, acceptance, tolerance, and interpersonal relationships.
- Corresponding crystals: Rose quartz, purple kunzite, green aventurine, pink tourmaline, rhodonite, etc.
The heart chakra is the chakra that can most directly reflect our emotional changes, and it is also the chakra that is most easily affected by our own internal emotions and external factors that interfere with energy balance.
When the heart chakra energy is unbalanced:
- We are prone to huge emotional ups and downs and lack an outlet to vent our emotions.
- We will often feel sad, upset, and want to cry uncontrollably, overly dependent on others, possessive and controlling, and do not allow people around us to get close to others.
- We may lack empathy, find it difficult to understand the joys and sorrows of others, be very vigilant and repulsive to others, and are unwilling to accept others and even more unwilling to accept ourselves.
- It is difficult to truly feel joy, and we are numb to emotions. We have even been called “heartless”.
- It is very easy to be influenced by external factors in your emotions, feelings and judgments. Often feel chest tightness, palpitations, heart discomfort, and serious breast problems may occur.
When the heart chakra energy is balanced:
For modern people, 90% of people have more or less energy blockage in the heart chakra. Few people have real unobstructed energy in this chakra. When the heart chakra energy is unobstructed, you can freely accept the love and praise of others and give confident responses. Have compassion and empathy but not saintly, have your own bottom line and principles. Be able to accept your own strengths and weaknesses, and make the best of your strengths. Have affinity, be able to handle interpersonal relationships well, and be able to regulate your emotions well. Be able to take it and let it go, and not be overly obsessed.
Daily healing methods:
- Crystal healing method. Choose the crystal corresponding to the heart chakra, such as rose quartz, purple kunzite, green aventurine, pink tourmaline, and green tourmaline.（I personally choose rose quartz, visualize that rose quartz is your heart, and then visualize that this crystal has all your emotions, those unspeakable fears and pressures accumulated deep in your heart. Then, you can tell the crystal some of your thoughts and emotions you want to express. At the same time, hold the crystal in the palm of your hand or place it on your chest, and visualize a pink light shining in your heart chakra and slowly getting bigger. The best time is 15-30 minutes.）
- Color healing, use pink or green.
- Diet therapy, eat green food.
- Try to smile more or hug others.
- You can keep a cat or dog to accompany you.
Fifth Chakra – Throat Chakra
- Throat chakra location: near the throat, connected to the shoulder.
- Represents energy: communication, eloquence, creativity, voice. The energy of the throat chakra affects our ability to communicate with others and our ability to express ourselves. This chakra is a very important chakra for our external connection, affecting our interpersonal relationships, work and life and our interaction with others in language.
- Corresponding crystals: aquamarine, blue agate, blue fluorite, blue phosphorus gray…
Unbalanced throat chakra energy will make it impossible for us to express ourselves smoothly and freely, or even to speak normally. At the same time, the throat will often be dry and hoarse, and the shoulders and cervical spine will be painful and uncomfortable. In addition, it will also make people lack creativity and inspiration.
The most common thing about excessive throat energy is that you talk too much and have no logic.
Daily healing method:
- Try to express yourself and your ideas in front of a mirror or friends and family. Don’t worry about whether you say it well or not, the key is to dare to say it. Then summarize where you have improved and where you need to improve.
- You can watch more musicals, dramas, small theaters, talk shows, etc. Summarize the expressions and performances that are useful to you.
- Imitate. Imitate the way of expression of people you like and admire, and then combine your own characteristics to gradually develop your own uniqueness.
- Crystal healing method. Choose a crystal corresponding to the throat chakra to wear or meditate, such as aquamarine.
- Meditation method. Visualize that your throat chakra has a constant flow of blue light.
- Develop hobbies. For example, painting and singing, express and express your inner world through painting and singing.
- Color method. Use more blue.
- Food therapy. Eat blueberries.
The Sixth Chakra – Ajna Chakra
- Ajna chakra location: a point between the two eyebrows on the forehead, also known as the third eye.
- Represents energy: our body’s pituitary gland, eyes, nose. Ajna chakra is responsible for our intuition, vision, spiritual connection, IQ, wisdom, memory, vision, and insight.
- Corresponding crystals: Sugilite, Amethyst, Kyanite, Purple Rutilated Quartz, Amethyst, etc.
The colors of the Ajna chakra are dark blue and purple. Dark blue represents thinking and logical analysis. Purple represents abstract, spiritual scenes and visualization.
The Ajna chakra is our inner and outer visual center. There is also a saying that the Ajna chakra is the last chakra on the physical level and the last manifestation of the tangible world.
This chakra is our channel for connecting to obtain high-dimensional information, symbols, images, and images. Through the Ajna chakra, we can depict and watch pictures, analyze and decide things.
Through the Ajna chakra, we can develop our awareness, improve our reception of spiritual/sexual energy, and be able to balance our thoughts and emotions well, and not be easily affected by the outside world.
When the energy of the Ajna Chakra is insufficient or blocked:
Endocrine disorders, vision problems, memory loss, slow thinking, poor imagination, logical confusion, insomnia, poor concentration, nervousness, denial of all invisible and intangible things, and distrust of the spiritual world.
When the energy of the Ajna Chakra is excessive:
Too arrogant to think that one’s own theory is superior to others, intentionally or unintentionally wanting to control other people’s thoughts, love fantasy and even hallucinations, too idealistic to return to real life, the whole person is light and can’t find a reason to take root, highly self-disciplined, strict with oneself and others.
Crystal healing method:
- Meditate: When you inhale, let all the energy gather in your brow chakra, and exhale to remove negative energy from every inch of your skin.
- Lie flat: Place amethyst, sugilite, fluorite, etc. on your brow chakra and feel the energy beating. Inhale, observe the purple light entering your brow chakra, and exhale to relax yourself. Repeat this process, put aside all thoughts in your head, and just focus on your brow chakra. Do this every day and you will make progress.
Seventh Chakra – Crown Chakra
- Crown chakra location: above our head. You must have seen a newborn baby, the top of the head still flickers. This is the crown chakra, which is the door to our connection with the universe and the link to high-frequency energy.
- Represents energy: wisdom, spirituality, and high-dimensional consciousness. This chakra helps us connect to high-dimensional energy, receive high-dimensional information, stimulate potential, and guide us to open up consciousness and break away from the material world and the simple reliance on logical thinking.
- Corresponding crystals: white crystal, purple dragon crystal, golden hair crystal…
The connection between the crown chakra and the brow chakra is very strong, and they are basically raised together.
If the energy of the crown chakra is weak or not opened, the heart chakra is also likely to be closed. As a result, individuals are not easy to believe in feelings, spiritual consciousness, religious mysticism, etc., and are only willing to believe in what they see, hear, and encounter with their own eyes.
The balance of the crown chakra energy will make us feel calm and at ease. The opening of the crown chakra energy is also more conducive to the balance and vitality of the six chakras below.
During crystal healing, white crystal or transparent gypsum is generally placed in the crown chakra. Gypsum is the crystal with the highest frequency in the Karina crystal healing system. Its vibration frequency is closer to the high-frequency energy of the universe, such as Bodhisattva, angels, gods, aliens, etc. It can also smooth the personal aura and do the final enchantment work of the aura, which will gather energy around you and enhance your personal energy field.
Crystal healing method:
Hold the white crystal/gypsum in your right hand, with the tip facing up, and hold it with your left hand, and place both hands in the Dantian position. You can choose single or double plate. Watch the golden/white light enter your crown chakra, cleanse your own thoughts, emotions and your chakras, and then penetrate your root chakra along the spine, and then return to the crown chakra from the root chakra, and repeat. Then the light wants to emit a white light from your crown chakra to the deepest part of the universe, and then empty your mind and wait for the universe to give you a message.
