Today we’re exploring the best heart chakra stones to mend your emotions and usher more love into your life. Heart healing crystals are gentle, yet powerful manifesting tools that make wonderful companions on your spiritual journey.
About The Heart Chakra
The heart chakra is special, because it’s the midpoint between your lower and upper chakras. So it represents where your physically-focused self meets your spirit.
All matters regarding empathy, compassion, forgiveness, grief, romance, and self love live in your heart chakra. So it needs regular healing care to stay in balance.
When your heart chakra is blocked, you may experience symptoms like these:
- Struggling to process/heal from your heartaches
- Inability to empathize with others
- Fear of ‘putting yourself out there’
- Emotionally guarded, to protect your heart
- Hard time connecting with your loved ones
- Difficulty forgiving yourself or others
- Lack of abundance in all areas of life
If you’ve expereinced something you are struggling to bounce back from, you’re not alone. Heart healing crystals are a beautiful way to bring yourself comfort, relief, and peace.
Your heart chakra’s natural state is to be open, free flowing, and resiliant! So you will make your way back to that place. Be sure to give yourself plenty of patience and kindness as you continue your spiritual self care journey.
