How to Unblock the Crown Chakra

To unblock the Crown chakra (Sahasrara), the tradition combines violet / white crystals like Amethyst, cosmic / thought-element practice, yoga, affirmation, and meditation. Cassandra frames this as restoring flow at the top of the head, gently and over time, not as a one-time fix.

Restoring flow

How to unblock the Crown chakra

  1. 1

    Work with color-matched crystals

    Hold or wear Amethyst, Clear Quartz, Selenite at the top of the head. The tradition pairs the Crown chakra with violet / white stones.

  2. 2

    Move with Cosmic / Thought-element yoga

    Headstand (Sirsasana), supported if needed, Lotus Pose (Padmasana), Corpse Pose (Savasana). These poses are traditionally associated with opening the Crown chakra.

  3. 3

    Meditate on the center

    Sahasrara is the one center the classical charts place outside the body altogether, so put the stone up above you rather than anywhere near you. A high shelf, the top of a bookcase, the lintel. Then lie down underneath it in the last hour of the day, with the lamp low, and look up at where you know it is. The thousand petals are drawn as a number too large to count on purpose: the iconography is refusing to be inventoried. There is no technique to get right here and nothing to accomplish, and that is the whole of the instruction. Let the day you just had be finished.

  4. 4

    Speak the affirmations

    Repeat affirmations like "I am connected to the infinite wisdom of the universe." daily. See the affirmations guide linked below.

  5. 5

    Nourish with Cosmic / Thought-element foods

    Fasting or light meals to heighten spiritual receptivity, Pure water and herbal infusions, Violet and white foods (cauliflower, coconut, garlic). The tradition associates these with the Crown chakra.
