Using Chakra Crystals to Build and Sustain Confidence
One of the things I love about Crystal Healing is how beautifully the combinations of various crystal properties can be matched to the complexity of our needs. For example, when someone comes to me looking for crystals for Heart Healing, there is more than one answer I can give them, depending on the specifics of their situation. We can choose crystals to help heal emotional wounds, crystals to ground negative thoughts, crystals to release emotional hooks, crystals to encourage self-love, etc.
The same is true for Building and Sustaining Confidence. Our reasons for lacking Confidence are varied, and the crystals we can use for support are equally adjustable.
Consider how a Confidence issue could stem from each Chakra:
Root- Lack of Security
Sacral- Lack of Identity
Solar Plexus- Lack of Control
Heart- Lack of Self-Love
Throat- Lack of Communication
Third Eye- Lack of Insight
Crown- Lack of Clarity
One broad, yet definitely effective method for clearing Confidence issues would be to cleanse and align each of your chakras, using a Chakra Meditation or sound healing.
A more targeted method would be to determine what's blocking confidence in your particular situation and then choose the crystals that will help you pinpoint and heal those blocks most efficiently. It never ceases to amaze me, when I do a Crystal Consultation, how the combination always changes. No two situations are alike, and through the series of questions, we are able to pinpoint exactly where support is needed to have the greatest possible effect.
As a general guide, here are a few crystals for building and sustaining confidence. Which one of these speaks the most to you?
