Yoga Crystals

My yoga studio in town is absolutely awesome. Seriously. Not only are the classes challenging and replenishing, the people live & breathe yoga. There's an Om wall. They are legit.

The studio owner - Pamela Maldonado - practiced with a big crystal on her mat in one of my earlier classes. There are also several crystal sculptures in our practicing room. What do they mean?

Well, apparently crystals are good for healing your chakras.

You can give your body a "tune-up" if you balance your chakras.  Learn about your chakra colors here.

Different color crystals work on different chakras.

Allow yourself to be creative with the crystals. Find out what particular crystals are known for, and match them up to what you might need at each chakra. Because each person is different, there is not a prescription that will suit everyone. As a starting point, though, the rainbow guide will work well.

Pam's was pink: green or pink for Anahata or the Heart chakra.

What chakra do you need to work on?
  • Root
  • Sacral
  • Navel
  • Heart
  • Throat
  • Third-Eye
  • Crown

Let practice guide you.
