Creating your space before using Crystals for Chakra Meditation
Now, before we get into which crystals for chakra meditation to use, we need to get a few steps into place first.
First step would be in creating your own sacred space.
It’s all about setting the right tone for your energy work to take place.
Here’s a few rituals to set the tone:
Creating the Right Ambiance
- Create a calm un-interrupting atmosphere. Phones off!
- Dim the lights, light candles, and play soft soothing relaxation music.
- Essential oils like lavender or frankincense can also help with relaxation and setting ambience.
- Make your meditation area comfy with seating cushions or a mat.
- Place your favorite crystals in a circle or along your body.
Make sure there’s a good flow of natural air to help you breathe deeply when doing your breathwork. Allow you to relax, let go and be part of the universal flow of energy.
Why use Crystals for Chakra Meditation ?
While crystals aren’t be all and end all for chakra meditation, they certainly introduce a unique, grounding element to the experience.
After all, we share a special connection with the natural world and all it’s elements.
Imagine walking into your sacred space, surrounded by all of the beautiful colors of crystals and stones. Setting the tone. Creating a space that supports your meditation practice, is like being inside your own special crystal cave.
Crystals can even be used as focus tools. Making your meditation experience deeper and more impactful.
How to use Crystals for Chakra in Meditation
Before starting any chakra meditation, always clean your crystals.
You want to make sure they’re at their optimum levels of positive vibrational frequencies.
This way they are ready to work with you on your intentions. As they are beautiful tools that connect us to the natural energy of the Earth. Their presence helps deepen our connection with the universe.
Crystals have been used since ancient times to help heal, protect and empower their wearers.
Here’s some different ways to use your chakra crystals:
- When doing energy healing, some prefer to place chakra meditation crystals near the heart area or third eye to deepen their connection. Sometimes this creates a tingling sensation as you feel the crystal’s vibrations.
- When doing energy work to heal specific chakra centers, place the crystal around or on each chakra area. So when in meditation and breathwork, focus on feeling the crystal’s energy as it balances.
- After doing your chakra meditations, place these crystals and stones in different places within your home. This ritual adds positive energy flowing throughout your homespace. Since you’ve already programmed them with good vibrations.
- Others prefer doing evening chakra meditation outdoors or early in the morning. Amplifying the power of their crystal. Placing it near a favorite plant during a full moon to cleanse and align with universal energies for intention setting.

Extra ways in using Crystals for Chakra Meditation
Now we’ve covered the chakra crystals and stones for placement on the energy centers. Here’s a few extra tips on some other crystal shapes that can also be used in chakra meditation without needing to be placed on the chakras themselves
- Quartz points- can work as the center point in an energy grid. They are also great for setting focused intentions, performing Reiki, and balancing the chakras.
- A pendulum crystal- is a useful tool for balancing and aligning your body’s energy without needing to go through a full meditation. By observing the pendulum’s swing, you can gain valuable insight into any imbalances or blockages in your energy centers. This helps you identify which chakra needs balancing.
- Using a cluster- with other crystals such as quartz or rose quartz becomes an even more powerful tool to help with energetic enlightenment when meditating.
Now if you don’t already have one, get yourself a crystal healing kit, if you don’t already have one. This way you don’t buy each stone or crystal individually, as the chakra kits themselves, usually have most of what you need.
Here are some handpicked products and kits that I think can be great products for using in your chakra meditations. Some are my all time favorites that I keep using in my sessions.
