The 7 Chakras
The word Chakra is the Sanskrit word for Wheel. The Chakras are the central energy centers within a person’s body. Each Chakra spins like a wheel allowing energy to flow from the pelvic region where the Root Chakra is located through the top of the skull to the Crown Chakra. When in balance, the Chakras are open allowing energy to flow freely, but certain mental or physical conditions restrain the energy and cause a blockage in one or more of the Chakras preventing energy to flow as it should. Clearing energy blockages and re-balancing our Chakras can be done utilizing their corresponding colors, healing crystals, sounds, Yoga poses, meditation and breath work. With these techniques we can easily and effectively bring ourselves back into a vibrant and harmonious state! The names and colors associated with the Chakras are Root: red, Sacral: orange, Solar Plexus: yellow, Heart: green/pink, Throat: blue, Third Eye: indigo, Crown: white/violet. The bracelet pictured uses the following healing crystals to represent each Chakra:

Heart: Green Fluorite
Throat: Angelite
Third Eye: Lapis Lazuli

Coconut Wood/Shell
The coconut has a very hard exterior shell protecting its nourishing flesh and hydrating water. The outer shell of the coconut symbolizes our impenetrable ego that we have developed throughout the years defining who we have evolved into. While the soft editable fruit and water inside the coconut provides nourishment and fullfillment. It symbolizes our true, authentic self free of the protective barriers put in place by our ego to mask our vulnerabilities and flaws. The coconut reminds us to shatter our ego and unveil our real, authentic self that is free from the restraints of the ego with confidence and self-awareness to be exactly who we were meant to be.
