The 7 Chakras
The Chakras are the central energy centers within a person’s body. The word Chakra is the Sanskrit word for Wheel. 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. Clearing and balancing our Chakras can be done utilizing their corresponding colors, healing crystals, sounds, Yoga poses, meditation and breath work. 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.
Root Chakra: Red Sponge Coral (enhanced)
Sacral: Carnelian
Solar Plexus: Citrine
Heart: Green Fluorite
Throat: Angelite
Third Eye: Lapis Lazuli

Coconut Wood/Shell
The outer shell of a coconut symbolizes the impenetrable ego we have developed throughout our lives, while the soft editable fruit and hydrating water inside the coconut symbolizes our true, authentic self. If we crack the outer shell, we are free of the protective barriers put in place by our ego that has masked our vulnerabilities and flaws and expose our true, authentic self to the world finally able to experience true freedom and fulfillment.
