• Use essential oils and other scents.
For example, eucalyptus oil can be beneficial for balancing the throat chakra, and using jasmine in the mornings is great for the sacral chakra.
• Do some chakra balancing exercise.
Push-ups or swimming can be great for the heart chakra, or why not try some squats to help align the root chakra?
•Eat chakra aligning foods.
Each of the chakras has a range of foods that are beneficial to their functioning. For example, eating granola and grains, dairy or ginger can be great for aligning the solar plexus.
• Use crystals or a chakra bracelet.
Chakra-specific crystals or a chakra bracelet can be incredibly powerful in aligning the chakras. This power is boosted when the colour of the stone matches that of the chakra.
