What are gemstone beads used for?
Colourful gemstone beads are often used in crafting beaded jewelry. The organic look and texture of the stones, as well as their variegated colours and patterns add luxury and elegance to necklace and bracelet pieces.
These beads also have an important use in meditation. Meditating with gemstones is said to help quiet the mind, overcome negative feelings, promote stress relief, and expand consciousness.
Various gemstones are also associated with chakra or energy healing, which means they assist in unblocking and activating the energies of the seven chakras (located at the center of the body, from the crown of the head down to the base of the spine).

How do I choose the right gemstones to use for meditation?
First, know which chakra you want to heal. Then choose the gemstone colour associated with that chakra. Colours have an important part to play in crystal meditation. Different gemstone colours represent a particular chakra in the body’s energy ecosystem.
Here are the seven chakras and colours and gemstones associated with them:
- Crown chakra - Violet (Amethyst, Quartz, Selenite, Tanzanite, Lepidolite)
- Third eye chakra - Indigo (Sodalite, Labradorite, Lapis Lazuli, Amethyst, Tourmalinated Quartz)
- Throat chakra - Blue (Amazonite, Turquoise, Aquamarine, Lapis Lazuli)
- Heart chakra - Green (Green Aventurine, Green Opal, Unakite, Malachite, Emerald)
- Solar plexus chakra (situated at the upper belly at the diaphragm) - Yellow (Citrine, Tiger’s Eye, Moonstone, Mookaite)
- Sacral chakra (situated at the center of the lower belly or the genital area) - Orange (Carnelian, Orange Calcite, Sunstone, Unakite)
- Root chakra - Red (Garnet Red Jasper, Bloodstone, Mahogany Obsidian)
You can also choose stones based on the type of healing you seek at the moment. Do you need healing from anger or anxiety? Then choose Rose Quartz beads to soothe your emotions.
