There are 7 main energy centers within the body called Chakra's, each of which correspond to specific organs, endocrines, issues, emotions, colors and elements.
Our physical body is the mirror image of our energetic system and so when we have specific physical problems, these are a reflection of the internal imbalance within the corresponding Chakra. Reiki balances these energetic centers which support the manifestation of a balanced physical body.
Each of the semi-precious gemstones in our 7 Chakra Healing Heart Bracelet corresponds to each of the 7 Chakras. Together, they are believed to restore and rebalance your energies, promoting overall wellbeing. Click the picture below to order yours with 20% discount using code: 2020 at checkout.
