Finding The Right Crystal Cluster For Your Chakra System
Humans have seven chakras, which play a pivotal role in the functionality and regulation of our bodies, mind, and spirit. The idea of a chakra system dates back to early Hindi practices and operates as a spiritual power that connects our physical bodies with the universe. Each of our chakras is responsible for regulating different aspects of our mind, body and spirit. Sometimes, however, due to illness, negative energies or overall everyday stressors, our chakras can become blocked, making them unable to regulate our system as they’re meant to. The good news is that we can unblock our chakras, often with the help of powerful crystal clusters. ‘Which clusters for which chakra?’ I hear you ask. Everything you need to know is detailed below:
