A chakra bracelet strings together beads in the seven chakra colors, from red to violet. The colors come from a traditional system of Indian origin and are a matter of belief and personal practice. Pick an elastic bracelet in a bead size you like, measure your wrist before you order, and keep it away from water and heavy stretching.
What are the seven chakra colors?
In the traditional chakra system, each of seven energy centers has a color. These are symbolic associations, not scientific findings.
- Root: red, linked with grounding and stability.
- Sacral: orange, linked with creativity.
- Solar plexus: yellow, linked with confidence.
- Heart: green, linked with compassion.
- Throat: blue, linked with expression.
- Third eye: indigo or purple, linked with intuition.
- Crown: violet or white, linked with reflection.
Our 8 mm elastic chakra bracelets
The 7 Chakra and Rudraksha elastic bracelet pairs seven chakra-color gemstone beads with rudraksha seeds. The 7 Chakra Pentacle bracelet uses garnet, carnelian, honey jade, green aventurine, turquoise, sodalite and amethyst beads. The lava and rudraksha version adds porous lava beads, and the howlite Om bracelet is made mostly of white and gray marbled howlite with a short run of chakra beads. Browse them all in the bracelet collection.
How do I size an elastic bracelet?
Measure your wrist with a soft tape and compare it with the size on the product page. Elastic gives a little, but a bracelet that is too tight strains the cord and one that is too loose slides off. If you are between sizes, choose the roomier one.
Lava beads and fragrance
Lava stone is porous, so some people place a drop of essential oil on a lava bead to carry a light scent through the day. Keep undiluted oil off your skin, and read our beginner's guide to diluting essential oils first.
Caring for your bracelet
- Remove it before showers, swimming and workouts, because water and sweat weaken elastic.
- Take it off by rolling it over your hand, not by pulling it.
- Wipe stones with a soft dry cloth.
- Store it flat, away from heat.
