How To Pair Chakra Essential Oils and Crystals for Weight Loss Support
How To Pair Chakra Essential Oils and Crystals for Weight Loss Support
Let's keep it real and cut through the BS. Essential oils and crystals, used alone or together, without doing anything else, will not result in weight loss.
But, if you're already trying right now to lose weight through diet and exercise there are essential oils and crystals that, when paired together, can become extremely supportive as you work toward your healthy weight.
Using the energy of botanical oil and natural crystal pairings to engage all the chakras in your bioenergy system results in a meaningful and targeted support system to help you on your weight loss journey.
If you're worried about how your weight is affecting your overall health…
If you're afraid what will happen if you continue to give in to cravings or destructive overeating…
If you're concerned about what others think about the way you look…
If you're stressed and challenged by negative emotions…
If you're lacking self-esteem and the faith that you can reach your goal…
If you've been avoiding looking at the truth about your weight gain…
If you want to become your true self, experience inner peace, and have a healthy metabolism…
then the calories you're taking in and burning off every day are probably not the only thing you need to focus on.
You might also need to target the unseen root of the issue, which is the underlying energy of your thoughts and emotions and their relation to your body weight.
Your chakra system holds this energy of thoughts and emotions.
An easy way to access and shift the energy held within your personal chakra system is to use essential oils and crystals.
Essential oils and crystals are fantastic at supporting us physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually.
Plus, their benefits become magnified when you use the right ones together to soothe, balance, energize, heal, uplift, renew, and harmonize your bioenergy through your chakra system.
Some of the benefits of pairing essential oils and crystals while losing weight include:
- Stronger motivation to eat healthy
- Balanced emotions to help fight cravings and release the pattern of overeating
- Energy to take control over your health and create new eating habits
- Comfort to release stress and heal emotional wounds to avoid emotional eating
- Confidence to ask for and attract what you need
- Renewed sense of self-care and heightened intuition for listening to your body's needs
- Harmony in body, mind, emotions, and spirit for a healthy metabolism
To experience this kind of energetic-based weight loss support and get the most profound benefits, you can use your chakra system as your own personal guide for targeting your particular emotional needs with the most effective oil and crystal combinations.
Below are chakra-aligned pairings of essential oils and crystals. Their combined properties address the soul issues contributing to weight gain and provide needed emotional and spiritual support for weight loss.
The ROOT Chakra
Your center for soothing, strengthening, securing, and vitalizing energy
Work with this energy if you need motivation
Your root energy center is your foundation of emotional and mental health. It is the chakra most closely associated with your physical survival.
It is here where you'll find the energy that helps you persevere through your fears of survival and loss. In the case of weight gain, your fears may quite literally be about surviving and losing your physical health.
The energy that helps you persevere is essentially the energy of an important decision: whether or not you are going to just survive - or, if you are going to thrive and physically flourish.
Choose to just survive, and you're closing the door on all that you could accomplish. Choose to thrive, and you open the door to all possibilities.
Even the words "survive" and "thrive" seem to carry different energies. Say them out loud and try to feel where they resonate in your body. My guess is that you feel them in the location of your root chakra at the base of your spine.
To make your desires for physical survival and healthy weight a reality you will need persistent motivation - especially to eat healthy or exercise.
And for that, you need to understand on an emotional level why you're doing what you're doing.
What is your why? If your answer stirs up negative feelings about yourself, whether they originated with you or you've absorbed them from someone else, there's work to do in the Root chakra.
Without being able to feel that you approve of yourself at any given moment (which includes the way you are right now - even if you're not exactly the way you want to be), you won't have the emotional strength, the firm foundation, to build your plans and goals on.
Unconditional acceptance of yourself can be very difficult. But remember, you can't spend your time changing if you're busy spending time punishing yourself.
Ultimately, learning to accept yourself unconditionally will help you develop a sense of security and emotional strength.
When you learn the lessons of confronting and freeing yourself from negative thoughts and emotions surrounding your desire to lose weight, you'll be able to harness and direct your motivating root chakra energy toward your weight loss journey.
Your root chakra energy will become stabilized and balanced, and you will feel revitalized and motivated to eat healthy and exercise.
Your Root Chakra Essential Oil + Crystal
Sandalwood Essential Oil + Almandine Garnet
Sandalwood is an emotionally soothing oil for anxious feelings, also provides core emotional support, and encourages a sense of stability and balance. Almandine Garnet imparts strength, security, and enhances vitality.
The SACRAL Chakra
Your center for balancing, protecting, and clearing energy
Work with this energy if you need to fight cravings and let go of unhealthy habits
The sacral chakra contains the energy of creativity. It is by working with this energy center that you can learn to balance the dual powers of creation - both its productive and destructive qualities - within yourself.
Building upon the foundation of stabilizing and revitalizing energy of the root chakra, the sacral chakra presents the question: How are you going to use the emotional strength and motivation you developed in your root chakra?
Are you going to nurture yourself or destroy yourself? Will you decide to eat right and exercise and create health, or will you give in to unhealthy temptations that create disease?
Imbalanced sacral chakra energy may manifest itself with mood swings, lack of discipline, and impulses for unhealthy foods that will diminish your wellness.
A fear of being controlled by unhealthy eating habits, yet at the same time showing a pattern of compulsive overeating is a sacral chakra issue.
Being able to release destructive negative patterns is a benefit of working with sacral chakra energy.
Work with the sacral chakra to balance your creative energy in both its destructive and productive forms. Remember, your root chakra is supporting you with the emotional security and motivation you need to nurture yourself and produce healthy results.
If struggling to fight cravings and the habit of destructive overeating are issues for you, then your sacral chakra needs some attention.
Your Sacral Chakra Essential Oil + Crystal
Jasmine Essential Oil + Amethyst
Jasmine Essential Oil has balancing effects for emotional support, calming your mind, and decreasing cravings. Amethyst is helpful for overcoming and releasing addictive and destructive habits, protecting and purifying sacral chakra energy, as well as assisting with clearing and removing unwanted negative emotional patterns.
The SOLAR PLEXUS Chakra
Your center for invigorating energy
Work with this energy if you need to create new healthy habits
The solar plexus chakra is your personal power chakra. Here you focus on understanding yourself, your fears, and how you will use that understanding to achieve your goals.
All fears related to physical appearance, including obesity, are seated in the solar plexus energy center.
Also found here are fears of rejection and criticism.
So what will you do with the fears you encounter here? Will you allow them to overpower you?
The key to developing your personal power is confronting, understanding, and learning from your fears and past mistakes. This process will help your solar plexus energy grow stronger and allow you to direct its power toward your weight loss.
Building on the creative, nurturing energy of the sacral chakra, here is where you take that energy and put it into action. Whereas the sacral chakra helped you release your destructive negative patterns, the solar plexus chakra is the energy to now create new, healthier habits.
Your solar plexus chakra is the wellspring of your empowerment, which is essential for taking action to achieve your weight loss goals.
Your Solar Plexus Chakra Essential Oil + Crystal
Peppermint Essential Oil + Golden Apatite
Peppermint Essential Oil is an emotionally energizing oil that decreases cravings and increases positive energy. Golden Apatite is believed to help with creating new habits and supporting weight loss.
The HEART Chakra
Your center for comforting, healing, and releasing energy
Work with this energy if you need to stop eating your emotions
The energy of the heart chakra is your love of creation in all its forms.
It is an energy of the spiritual lesson that teaches you how to love and have compassion for all - including yourself.
It is a comforting energy that helps you release your emotional pain and reach a state of tranquility and healing.
A loss of energy in the heart chakra manifests in fears of loneliness, commitment, jealousy, bitterness, anger, hatred, and an inability to forgive others and yourself.
Do you find that you turn to food when you're in emotional pain? Does the food temporarily suppress or soothe what you're feeling?
The mood food you're choosing is likely very unhealthy and can sabotage your weight loss efforts. On top of that, afterwards you usually end up with guilt, too - even more destructive, stress-inducing energy.
If you're an emotional eater, finding a way toward emotional healing is a top priority. Find a process that works for you, and include working with the energy of the heart chakra.
Negative emotions are stressful on your energy system, and in particular, the energy of your heart.
These negative energies that can be found in the heart chakra need to be confronted and let go so that you can release the destructive energy of stress and the destructive habit of eating your emotions.
Your Heart Chakra Essential Oil + Crystal
Palmarosa Essential Oil + Rose Quartz
Palmarosa Essential Oil is a comforting oil that is perfect for all emotional applications. Rose Quartz emits soothing vibrations that help release stress and encourage emotional healing.
The THROAT Chakra
Your center for uplifting, expressing, and attracting energy
Work with this energy if you need more self-confidence
The essence of the throat chakra is faith, confidence, and communication.
It is where you use your power to give voice to the love and compassion for yourself held within your heart chakra.
If you don't love yourself, it will be revealed in the energy of the throat chakra through what you say.
An imbalanced throat chakra gives voice to your unconfronted fears, undeveloped self-acceptance, and low self-esteem.
Listen to the words you say during the day. Are you communicating the truth about who you are in the eyes of the Divine, or are you expressing faith and belief in your fears instead?
Whichever you are choosing, it is affecting your weight loss journey.
Are you confident in your approach to weight loss, knowing the truth about how wonderful you are? Or are you filled with self-doubt?
Work with the energy of your Throat Chakra to identify your beliefs, increase your faith in the truth about yourself, build self-esteem, change what you say about yourself, and develop the confidence to ask for what you need.
Your Throat Chakra Essential Oil + Crystal
Bergamot Essential Oil + Pink Halite
Bergamot Essential Oil is an emotionally uplifting and strengthening oil that works to raise self-esteem and enables the truth to be spoken. Pink Halite vibrates with the energy of joy and self-love to assist with clearing emotionally related imbalances, seeing the truth, and helping with self-expression.
The THIRD EYE Chakra
Your center for renewing and inspiring energy
Work with this energy if you need to be more in tune with your needs
The third eye chakra is the energy of self-reflection, understanding, and developing wisdom to intuitively listen to your body's needs.
Figuratively "looking" within using third eye energy helps you discover your true self. Working with this energy helps develop your intuition - your ability to trust your instincts about what your body is telling you and the wisdom to listen.
When you begin looking, it is here you might discover a fear of judgment or a fear of discipline that have been hindering your weight loss efforts.
Working with the energy of the third eye chakra allows you to stop seeing things, and yourself, as "good" or "bad". This type of judgment generates fear, which is enough to stop you from achieving your goals. Put your fears aside and stay true to yourself. Your third eye will help you see who you truly are.
Maybe your third eye will show you that you're running from the difficult and uncomfortable process of losing weight and all it involves.
The important thing is to be willing to look at what is really going on, and to have the wisdom to listen to what your body is saying.
Overcoming your unwillingness to face your fears and see the truth underneath about yourself and your weight gain allows you to create a desirable future that includes weight loss and better health.
If you've been avoiding evaluating your personal beliefs and attitudes associated with your weight, or if you're ignoring the signals your body is sending you, your third eye chakra is a good place to focus.
Your Third Eye Chakra Essential Oil + Crystal
Immortelle Essential Oil + Iolite-Sunstone
Immortelle Essential Oil is an emotionally renewing oil that is excellent for reflection, understanding, self-growth, and an increased sense of self-care. Iolite-Sunstone combines the properties of two crystals for better intuition, inspiration, self-discipline, and productive action to aid weight loss.
The CROWN Chakra
Your center for harmonizing and attuning energy
Work with this energy if you need inner peace and the inspiration to make healthy lifestyle changes
The crown chakra is where you become connected to your spiritual nature.
The energy of all your prayers and meditations - including those about your weight loss journey - is held here.
This crown chakra energy brings together your body, mind, emotions, and spirit so that you can become inspired and peaceful - your true spiritual self.
It frees you from the low energy pains, troubles, and humiliations of the world because it brings you calmness, happiness, and gives you access to inner guidance through connection with the Creator of the Universe.
The spiritually elevating and harmonizing effect of balanced crown chakra energy supports the manifestation of your desires - such as lifestyle changes, a healthy metabolism, and weight loss.
Your Crown Chakra Essential Oil + Crystal
Rose Essential Oil + Ametrine
Rose Essential Oil is the highest frequency oil and brings harmony to body, mind, emotions, and spirit. Ametrine is a combination crystal composed of amethyst and citrine energies for attuning to Divine inspiration, enabling you to act on inner guidance, and is also believed to stimulate metabolism and digestion.
