What are Chakras? The chakra system is an ancient way of viewing the body. It is divided into seven zones, with each area having energy that must flow freely. When the chakras are balanced, the whole body works in harmony and we feel elevated, energized and whole. Just think of the seven points along the body as different organ systems. All of your organs must be in good working order for the body and mind to be healthy.

CHAKRA HEALING Chakra is a Sanskrit word meaning “wheel�. A chakra is like a vortex: a constantly revolving wheel of energy. These vortexes connect the subtle bodies and act as transducers for life-force energy. Traditionally, there are seven major associated with the physical body. They are aligned with the spine and located in the base of the spine, the lower abdomen (sacral), the solar plexus, the heart, the throat, the centre of the forehead (third eye), and the crown of the head. When our chakras are blocked, or not in balance, the free flow of energy is impeded, leading to physical, emotional, mental or spiritual disease. When the chakras are unblocked and free-flowing, however, we enjoy optimum health. Each chakra is associated with specific colours and crystals and governs different aspects of human emotion and behavior. Using gemstones and essential oils with the chakras can have a great healing effect.

Chakra + Reiki Reiki is beginning to gain acceptance as a meaningful and cost-effective way to improve patient care and is being offered in hospitals across North America. Physical Level - Reiki supports the body's natural ability to heal itself, helping to release blockages, toxins, and relieve pain. Mental Level - Reiki energy can help you to witness your thoughts and negative patterns. Once you become aware of your thoughts, you have the power to change them. Emotional Level - Reiki can help you get in touch with the depths of your emotions and can help you to transform whatever energy you would like to transform. Reiki can help you cultivate more positive emotions, such as love, compassion, kindness, connection, sharing, intimacy and more. Spiritual Level - Reiki can help you to love and accept yourself. To have self-compassion and compassion for others.

Essential oils are renowned for their ability to promote spiritual focus, enhance mental clarity, and emotional well-being.

Using Essential Oils for Healing Chakras There are many ways to maintain optimal energetic vibration within our body, and essential oils are one way that can support us in doing that. • • • •

Essential oils are plant material that have an energetic frequency. The human body has an energetic frequency. Each chakra has an energetic frequency. When you apply an essential oil, diffuse it, or ingest it, you are introducing a frequency that is much higher than your own.

Your energy body attempts to match this higher frequency by shedding lower vibrational energy and raising its own vibration. Essential oils are high frequency, and each chakra has an ideal frequency. When you introduce an oil for the intention of balancing, clearing or opening a certain chakra, that part of your energy body responds by striving to match the frequency of the plant material. Each one of these oils is associated with a plant or many plants. These plants have what’s called plant medicines – spiritual characteristics that, through working with them, they help to activate within you and integrate or re-integrate into your energy. For example, Cedarwood is grounding, but it’s also a tree that is empowered, strong, confident, stands tall in the face of danger, never wavering. Cedar is also considered an ancient tree, that can connect you to past lineages and help you to release past traumas. This is what would be called the medicine of Cedar, in shamanism. So, when you work with a plant, they can activate that medicine within you. That remembrance or activation, in turn, helps to balance the corresponding chakra. They also work by connecting you with the Plant Spirit that can bestow needed qualities for balancing the associated emotional or spiritual component of the chakra. *The oils listed in this document are NOT exhaustive!

“An essential oil used is a chemical that is not." – Gary Young. “If you don’t know your soil, you don’t know your oil.” – Gary Young.

QUALITY and CONSITENCY With using essential oils for healing there are two caveats: 1. Consistency 2. Quality Consistency is important here. You can’t just apply it once and expect the work to be done. Raising your frequency to shed low energy is a process, one that I would recommend you take your time with. Let’s say you want to open/clear your root chakra. Choose ONE oil or blend, and use it consistently, daily, for 3-4 weeks. Quality of the oils matters. You can’t just buy any essential oil from the mall or store and expect them to have the same therapeutic properties as essential oils made with loving and organically grown and respected plants. Since you’re working with the energy of the plant and the spirit, you need oils that come from plants who have been grown, respected, and honored in the process. This is why we use Young Living oils. For the past 24 years, they have respected and honored plants throughout the process. They grow only on soil that hasn’t been touched by chemicals in over 100 years, nor do they use toxic chemicals – only natural and sustainable methods. Young Living even thanks the plants for their harvest and doesn’t allow anyone to speak a bad word within the fields. This goes a long way towards making sure an oil will be effective in energetic and spiritual healing. www.seedtoseal.com

HOW TO USE ON THE CHAKRAS Okay, so – how can you use an oil to heal each chakra? My first choice is to apply them topically. Topically on the chakra, applied in a circular outward motion, as if you’re spiraling it open. You can do this a few times a day. You can also ingest Young Living oils, for the 3rd Chakra/Solar Plexus. – remember it’s the same oil, just a different label. You can diffuse them too, but this is my last choice, except for the Third Eye and Crown Chakras. Diffusing really helps for the third eye – molecules get to the brain and thus, the third eye. Pay attention to the oils that call to you for certain areas of the energy body because many oils work well in varying parts of the body and work differently for different people.

Chakra Affirmations Sacral Chakra: I feel “I am authentically creating a life free of stress and full of bliss” Solar Plexus: I do “I am powerful, confident, and successful in all my ventures.” Heart Chakra: I love “I am giving and receiving love effortlessly and unconditionally.” Throat Chakra: I speak “I speak clearly and truthfully with grace and ease.” Root Chakra: I am “I am grateful for all of the challenges that help me grow and transform.” Crown Chakra: I understand “I go beyond my limiting beliefs and accept myself totally.” Third Eye Chakra: I see “I trust my intuition. My life is unfolding exactly as it should. I am on my path.”

THE POWER OF AFFIRMATIONS An affirmation is anything you say or think. A lot of what we normally say and think is quite negative and doesn’t create good experiences for us. We have to retrain our thinking and speaking into positive patterns if we want to change our lives. An affirmation opens the door. It’s a beginning point on the path to change. In essence, you’re saying to your subconscious mind: “I am taking responsibility. I am aware that there is something I can do to change.” Every thought you think and every word you speak is an affirmation. All of our self-talk, our internal dialogue, is a stream of affirmations. You’re using affirmations every moment whether you know it or not. You’re affirming and creating your life experiences with every word and thought. Your beliefs are merely habitual thinking patterns that you learned as a child. Many of them work very well for you. Other beliefs may be limiting your ability to create the very things you say you want. What you want and what you believe you deserve may be very different. You need to pay attention to your thoughts so that you can begin to eliminate the ones creating experiences you do not want in your life. By taking time throughout your day and applying essential oils over your chakras and saying an affirmation, you can overcome, grow and strengthen, and most importantly - heal.

At A Little Rei of Hope, each bracelet is given an affirmation. All of our affirmations are printed on wild flower seeded paper. We wanted to be able to provide each person with a little something special to help them on their journey to a wellbalanced life. Our affirmations can be planted and when taken care, will grow into flowers. These flowers can in turn become a visual reminder to keep that inner balance and peace, and help remind you to take that moment to think positively.
