The universe is a manifestation of energy. Whether it was Albert Einstein, the famous German scientist who said ' What we have called matter is energy, whose vibration has been so lowered as to be perceptible to the senses. There is no matter' or American scientist/inventor Nikola Tesla who said “If you want to find the secrets of the universe, think in terms of energy, frequency and vibration', they echoed the facts discovered thousands of years ago by mystics and masters all over the world.

Mystics who worked with energy and the human mind in great depth spoke about matter being formed out of energy and not the other way around. They also detailed ways to control and stabilise 'the energy body' from which the physical body manifested. It was detailed that the human energy body is composed of more than a 100 energy centres called chakras and 72000 energy channels called nadis. For most practical purposes, there have been detailed studies on 7 chakras located along the spine. The masters designed ways to activate, balance the unblock the chakras to help human beings to achieve 'balance and coherence' in their lives. This would bring peace, love, happiness and contentment in our lives and help us to flower to our highest potential.

Chakra literally means the wheel. Why does this matter?
The energy within us is balanced and distributed by these chakras through the psychic channels or Nadis.

If one of your chakras is moving slowly or is blocked, the energy levels inside of your body become imbalanced and your health suffers.

Every chakra in our body has its own vibration and hence its own colour, sound and frequency which can be influenced by corresponding frequencies emitted by natural stones and other influencing objects. Therefore, these stones, if used correctly, have a 'healing' effect.

The 7 chakras with their corresponding stones are:

• The Root Chakra – Hematite, Black Onyx and Smokey Quartz
• The Sacral Chakra – Tigers’ Eye and Sunstone
• The Solar Plexus Chakra – Jasper and Pyrite
• The Heart Chakra – Rose Quartz and Aventurine
• The Throat Chakra – Aquamarine and Sodalite
• The 3rd Eye Chakra – Amethyst, Fluorite and Lolite
• The Crown Chakra – Clear quartz, Amethyst and Moonstone
