Crystal Exercise

Lay down with some crystals of your choice. If possible place a grounding stone (such as ruby, smoky quartz, clear quartz or super seven or any orange or red crystal) at your root chakra or by your feet. Place another stone at your heart chakra such as rose quartz, indigo quartz or kunzite. Place another stone on your third eye or above your crown chakra such as phenacite, danburite or clear quartz.

You can also hold a crystal in your hand, and this crystal will assist you during your meditation. Through this crystal your favorite Deities, Spiritual Guides, Teachers, and Angels can send you supportive energy. In addition, this crystal can be used to transmit energy to the areas of your body and energy field in need of strengthening and healing.

Make it your intention as you place the crystals, that each stone will assist you in clearing unwanted energies & then will help you in strengthening your auric shield.

Close your eyes, breathe deeply three times through the nose, exhaling with a longer out breath through the mouth. Then breathe comfortably.

Follow your breath with your mind so that your breath is your point of focus. If you cannot stop yourself from thinking, that is ok, just look at the thoughts & realize, "oh, I'm thinking" and keep breathing.

Continue to bring your attention back to your breath. Do not judge yourself for thinking, just keep trying to follow the breath. After a few minutes of this, feel yourself sinking more deeply into the ground, your back being caressed by the Earth.

Now notice you have crystals beneath your feet, or at your root chakra & thank each one in turn for assisting you in clearing unwanted energies & helping you to relax. Focus your mind on each crystal moving from your feet up your body & try to feel the energy of each one in turn.

Have no expectations & simply focus one at a time on the crystals moving from your root chakra or feet. Spend as little or as much time focusing on each stone in this way moving from your feet to your head.

Then begin to do the same thing with each stone, beginning at the crown & work your way back down your body. Again, keep breathing, following the breath & focus one at a time on each crystal moving from crown to root.

As you move downward, ask each crystal to assist you in strengthening your auric field.

When you have finished, lie quietly and breathe slowly and begin to imagine that you have a sheath of energy around your physical body which is several inches out from your skin. See that sheath of energy like a transparent skin which is intact, pliant & whole.

Look to see if there are any holes in that sheath. That sheath is a major part of our aura, the energy field that surrounds your body, extending from your skin outward quite a distance in space.

If you find holes with your internal vision, then continue the exercise again, starting at your root chakra & visualize energy pouring forth from each stone, filling up the holes in your aura.

Work your way up the body & as you meditate, work with each stone to strengthen & support your auric field all the way from crown to root chakra.

Again, examine your auric sheath with your inner eye and see if you have completed repairs.

This exercise may take some getting used to if you are unaccustomed to working with inner vision in this way, and it may take more than one session to 'repair' your auric field.

If you are accustomed to this kind of work, you may want to bring in guides to work with you, angels or even utilize the assistance of colors, scent or flower essences.
