Each balance of each chakra is dependent on the functioning of the other chakras. The blocked
chakras cause physical as well as emotional and mental illness. To let the energy flow freely
through each chakra, it must work in sync and harmony. Modern western medicine does not
believe in the concept of chakras, but the ancient Indian science of Ayurveda interprets the
relation between illness and realignment and balancing of the chakras with meditation, herbal
treatments and the chakra healing stones.
The energy is believed to rise from the base of the spine, that is the root chakra and move up
towards the crown chakra. Any blockage in the path manifests in physical, emotional or mental
illness. Gemstone and healing crystals unblock and align the working of the chakra, thereby

ensuring that the energy travels freely between the chakras and the individual is healthy and
happy.
