Falling In Love With Rose Quartz- A Heart Chakra Meditation

Spirals of Light — Tue, 02 Feb 2010 02:00:12 +0000

Over the past several weeks I immersed myself in heart chakra stones. I wanted to put together a collection of Heart Chakra jewerly as part of my Valentine’s day jewelry sale. I took out all of my pink gemstone beads and began designing Heart opening necklaces. The more I worked with Rose Quartz the more I feel in love with this stone all over again. All pink and green stones are Heart Chakra stones. There are many pink and green gemstones in the mineral kingdom and I have a vast collection of these heart stones. It is easy to over look the lovely soft Rose Quartz. As I worked with Rose Quartz I began to connect once again to its amazing energies.

While the vibration of Rose Quartz is soft and gentle, it is also very powerful. This stone reminds us that love begins with ourselves. Rose Quartz is all about self love and self nurturing.

Meditating with rose quartz can help to release emotional wounds that hold our hearts closed. Its softness allows us to slowly and delicately look at the hurts we experience and one by one let it go and open back to love. Meditating with Rose Quartz gives us the opportunity to be surrounded in love energy. Here is a short meditation using the Gemstone Rose Quartz.

While laying down, place a Rose Quartz on your Heart Chakra. Close your eyes and breath slowly and deeply, quieting the mind. Begin to feel the vibration of the Rose Quartz on your Heart Chakra. Visualize the color pink. Begin at your feet and slowly move the soft pink color up and over your body until your whole body is bathed in the loving, compassionate and peaceful energy that is Rose Quartz. Allow yourself several minutes to be in this calm and loving space. When you feel ready place both your hands over the stone as it sits on your Heart Chakra and once again become aware of your breath. With each in breath, breathe in the loving energy of the Rose Quartz, with each out breath, breathe out hurt, fear, worry or any other emotion that is blocking your heart. Do this several times until you begin to feel a peacefulness, a calm throughout your body. You can say to yourself, I am love, I am loved, repeat several times. When you feel ready, place your hands down by your sides and feel love, feel your heart warm and open to receive all the love that is here for you. When you feel ready open your eyes and give yourself a great big hug.

Rose Quartz can help us open to receive love from ourselves and others. Do you have difficulty being kind to yourself? This is your stone.

This Valentine’s day fall in love with yourself. Let Rose Quartz remind you to do something just for you.

Rose Quartz heart

Rose Quartz is perhaps one of the best known gemstones in the crystal world. Commonly known as the “stone of love.” I’ve been placing a Rose Quartz heart by my Yoga mat for the past week, in honor of Valentine’s Day. It helps me put my focus on heart opening yoga poses. Asanas like, cobra pose, cat pose, upward facing dog and bridge pose. At the end of my yoga sessions I sit and meditate with Rose Quartz and listen to its gifts.

Rose Quartz first and foremost reminds us to love ourselves. Each day when I get on my mat I am demonstrating this self love. I bring self acceptance to the mat when I feel the tightness in my muscles, and forgive the places in my body where it is difficult for me to stretch further. We often distance ourselves from self love when we feel un-entitled to it, or less than, or unworthy, or even guilty. But without self love there can be no love of others. Fill your heart with love and the world outside you sees it and feels it. May you have a love filled day.

Happy Valentine’s Day.

How to mend a broken heart- Rose Quartz

Heartstones Chakra Bracelet

As Valentine’s Day approaches not everyone is feeling romantic. If you find yourself wishing you were in a wonderful relationship but are still feeling the wounds of a past love, seek out the heart soothing gemstone Rose Quartz. Rose Quartz is connected to the Heart or 4th Chakra and is a heart-nurturing stone, bringing love, joy and acceptance.

Pink and green stones are known to open and heal the heart. I combined Green Aventurine with Rose Quartz to create “Heartstones” a heart chakra gemstone bracelet. These two stones together offer a satisfying heart warming energy. Finding and nurturing love in our lives is something we all seek. Choose Rose Quartz or any pink or green stones. Try this affirmation while holding a pink or green gemstone: “My life only has meaning in proportion to the love I allow in my heart“.
