There are various stones and crystals you can use to balance your sacral chakra. Every stone and crystal has specific properties which make them more or less suitable to balance your sacral chakra.

When it comes to using crystals for the sacral chakra, consider those which have properties to increase creativity and sensuality. Some of the best crystals for sacral chakra healing include Carnelian and Tiger’s Eye.

When you get stones and crystals that you plan to place in direct contact with your skin, always buy tumble stones, also known as polished stones.

These stones are slightly coated with polish, which provides them with a protective layer that stops them from reacting with your skin and causing you any irritation.

If you are unsure whether a stone or crystal may react or not with your skin, it is easier to buy the safest polished option.

2. Clear the Space for Your Crystal Healing Session

Before you have your sacral healing session with crystals, you should prepare and clean the space.

The space you choose to have a crystal healing session should be comfortable, quiet, and without drafts so that you can fully concentrate and be present during the healing session.

You may do the session yourself or ask someone to help you place the crystals on your body.

To cleanse the space, burn some incense and allow the smoke to fill the space.

The incenses recommended for cleansing the space are:

  • White sage, clears the air of energetic impurities.
  • Palo santo, which clears all the energy of the space, both positive and negative. Be mindful that when using palo santo, you need to ventilate the area and then, invoke positive energy by burning white sage.

3. Cleanse and Prepare the Crystals

When you acquire crystals, you should clean them from any energy they may have picked in their journey.

There are several techniques to cleanse your crystals, but not all crystals can be cleansed in the same way due to their intrinsic properties as they can get damaged. The safest option for any stone and crystal is brown rice.

Use a glass or plastic container to avoid any reaction between the crystal and the material of the container
Place the brown rice in the container, put the crystals on top and leave them overnight
Discard the rice in the morning

Once your crystals are cleansed, you need to charge them to unlock all of their energy.

To charge your crystals, you can place them under sunlight. This will excite the atoms in the crystals before you put them on your body.

If you plan to place the crystals directly onto the skin, warm up the crystals under the light of a lamp or place a towel on a heater and put the crystals on top. This can also be useful if there is no sunlight when you are planning to do crystal healing.
