Temple of Energy was created out of love for crystals - experiencing their healing power, we wanted to give you the opportunity to benefit from their miraculous energy! To fully enjoy the effects of these Mother Earth’s gifts, please remember that they like regular cleansing! Same as in our material world, in spirituality we also talk about energetic “health and safety" protocols. These are sets of good practices that support our energetic field, keeping it free from unwanted energies and making sure we are increasing our vibrations. For this purpose it is good to have rock salt, set of cleansing crystals or smudging sticks (a large selection can be found in our store) in your spiritual “toolbox”.
Crystals can delight you with their beauty, and for many, their visual qualities are enough encouragement to include them as a part of styling. But they are not only nice necklaces and jewelry, above all, we strongly recommend making friends with them on a spiritual level!
INTENTION
When working with stones or wearing them in the form of jewelry, it is very important to remember about the intention. Intention is a form of a powerful thought, a "program" that we impose on a given form - in this case a stone or a mala of crystals.
On our website you will find detailed descriptions of the properties of the stones. Choose the right one for you, the one that will support your current needs. Follow your intuition and attraction. Then, focus on what support you want while wearing your mala. When you wear or take your mala with you, program it with the intention - it will amplify the energetical properties and protect you like a talisman, magic spell or a friend who constantly supports you in achieving your goals. It’s vibration will unblock your energetical centers and restore an energetic flow in your physical and energetic body. All challenges that we are facing are first occurring in our aura - our energetical body. It’s crucial to start healing and restoring balance at it’s root cause. From that point we can start to increase vibrations and get crystal’s support to achieve your goals, abundance and happy life.
Intention will also be crucial in cleansing the stones. Do you know that it is best to clean your mala after each use? Crystals have the amazing property of pulling out of us what does not serve us, so you should clean them like a sponge soaked in liquid! Otherwise, their action may weaken or they may give us unwanted energy. You will reach for any of the following methods of crystal purification, remember that the process should be accompanied by intention!
WHAT TO USE TO CLEAN CRYSTALS?
The most effective methods of purifying crystals are washing them in cold water, placing them in coarse salt, incensing them with e.g. white sage, burying them in the ground or exposing them to the sun. We recommend reaching for the option that intuitively feels most appropriate to you. Only when the stones are exposed to the sun, it should be taken into account that they may slightly change their color - this will happen in the case of, among others, malachite, lemon, amethyst or lapis lazuli. Some stones, due to their delicate structure, should not come into contact with salt or a mixture of water and salt, which some also use for purification. In our opinion, the best way to purify the crystals is to place them under running water, visualizing that this element cleans them of all adverse influences, up to the point where the stone emanates back pure, healing energy.
Alternatively or simultaneously, you can also use incense smoke in the form of bark or dried leaves for cleaning. Light, for example, white sage and let the smoke incense your mala, keeping your intention in mind of course. A great way to clean stones is also placing them in the ground - we can bury our crystals for the whole night or even several days. In this way, we will clean them and charge them at the same time, because the Earth has excellent transformational properties! Some people also place their crystals in a pot with soil.
Yet another way to remove energy deposits is to place stones in an amethyst brush or quartz geode, which have strong cleansing properties. You can also use the so-called a selenite wand, which has the property of transforming negative energy into positive energy - converting low into high vibration. If, on the other hand, you like to use the healing sounds of instruments such as bowls, gongs or bells, you can also use them to clean the crystal by placing it in the field of sound waves for a few minutes.
Choose the way that best resonates with you and take care of the energy balance of your crystals to fully experience their healing effects!
We wish you wonderful, transforming moments spent in practice with Temple of Energy crystal malas!

In the Far East for many centuries chakras have been widely discussed in esoteric beliefs and practices. The chakras appear where the direction and dynamics of life are determined by accumulated and properly directed energy. What are they really? Our inner energy centers are resonating with the external energy, events and emotions that touch us. Each of them is responsible for a different area of health in life. Placed along the vertical axis of the body, they contribute to the feeling of inner harmony and unity. It happens, however, that as a result of external factors, the chakras are closed or damaged, and our full potential is being blocked temporarily. To fully enjoy our possibilities and enjoy life to the fullest, we work to ensure that energy can flow freely through our body and mind, creating a synergistic unity with the universe.
If the chakras are energy centers, then the meridians mentioned in the introduction are the path to these energy points. Particularly described in Chinese medicine and acupuncture, over time they have become an important and harmonizing element for humans. Just as we won’t go against the current, when we think about chakras and meridians, we should follow the directions of natural energy. There are 12 main meridians - 6 ying meridians and 6 yang meridians. By caring for their harmony and a balanced flow of energy, we attract positive emotions, good health and rewarding events to ourselves. We also generate an aura that attracts good people and… good moments.
In order to achieve balance of the meridians and to unlock the chakras, we need to be mindful and look inside. Self-improvement through meditation and prayer practices, sessions of deep relaxation and inner cleansing, looking into the depths of our own self, which will allow us to discover our unconscious needs, possibilities, but also... our blocks. In this extraordinary journey, it is worth opening up to the healing power of nature and stones that support the opening of individual chakras and improve the work of the meridians. Unique crystals, such as: rock crystal, citrine, quartz, turquoise, malachite, carnelian, lapis lazuli, onyx, selenite, amethyst, agate, pyrite, hematite, tourmaline and many more help regulate our internal energy by strengthening the flow of positive vibrations. On the other hand, the male myTemple necklaces made of stones and crystals support the activity of the chakras, allow you to release the full potential of meditation and restore the natural physical and mental balance.

Many people go through life thinking “I am not complete, I am not worthy, or I am not good enough.” With these low vibrational thoughts constantly being replayed in your mind, you will naturally turn outside of yourself to other people or things to make you feel better, but when you receive that instant yet temporary external validation, it still does not work. Do you know why? It’s because you have to fall in love with yourself first. Self-love is the answer.
We all have so many charming qualities that make people fall in love with us, I bet you can count them if you took the time to, take a few minutes to count three right now!
You have achieved so many exceptional things in your life, things that you never thought you could! But if you don't truly believe that you are complete, if you do not have that self-love, does it really feel how you always imagined it would? To hit that personal goal, or find that loving relationship, or receive that promotion you worked so hard for. Have you even acknowledged the amazing things you have achieved in your life so far?
No matter how much you try to show people that you are lovable, people instinctively know when you do not love yourself. If you have no self-love, no amount of external love, appreciation, or beauty will give you self-love if you find it difficult to love yourself.
Now can you see where your thinking has now gone wrong? Can you see where you are not showing yourself compassion and self-love? If you can see where you have been going wrong then you can absolutely put it right and fall in love with yourself. So many people think it's hard but we are here to tell you it is easy; simply by telling yourself that you are lovable. You do not need to be perfect because perfect is not sustainable, let alone relatable or likeable. You do not have to be perfect to be loved or have self-love. You can start here, right now.
When you deeply honour, respect, and believe that you are complete, your entire life will change in ways you never could have imagined.
So… who wants to live a life full of joy, unconditional love, inner peace, and freedom?
Join the Temple of Energy community where we openly talk about topics including joy, success, inner peace, and freedom. How to achieve them and what might be getting in your way.
]]>The oldest crystal discovered so far dated back to 4.4 billion years ago, challenging earlier thoughts on how old the earth was when life started. This crystal is Zircon, tiny specimens were extracted from mines in northwestern Australia.
Some of the first documented references to the use of crystals occur in ancient Sumeria. The Sumerians included crystals in magic rituals and were particularly fond of Lapis Lazuli, used for protection in jewellery. There is evidence that they may have roamed as far as Afghanistan to get this precious crystal.
Prized in the ancient world for its physical beautification properties, Rose Quartz face masks have been recovered from Egyptian tombs, thought by the Egyptians and Romans to prevent wrinkles to provide a youthful complexion.
The word crystal means “frozen light” or “pure ice” in ancient Greek. The Greeks believed that clear quartz was water frozen so deeply it would stay solid forever. “Amethyst” is also from the ancient Greek language, meaning “not intoxicated.” This stone was used then as it is today to help support the avoidance of overindulging in alcohol and its side effects!
The use of Obsidian dates to the Old Stone Age. Many cultures relied heavily on this volcanic glass in their daily and spiritual lives. The Mayans used Obsidian as a magical mirror to see into the future.
The Kalpa Tree, which represents an offering to the gods in Hinduism, is said to be entirely made out of crystals and stones. The Hindu Vedas, ancient holy texts, refer to many stones and describe their powers.
In Jainism, the Kalpa Sutra speaks of Harinegamesi, the divine commander of the foot troops who seized 14 precious stones, cleansed them of their inferior qualities and preserved only their finest essence to assist his transformations.
What is truly fascinating is that many different cultures on opposite sides of the world have very similar, if not the same meanings for the same crystals, having no idea that one another existed.

]]>Being spiritually grounded is an essential part of life, even if you do not believe you are a spiritual person.
Being grounded is having a solid connection with Mother Earth and being in touch with nature. Human beings are made of energy, so it is natural that we can become uprooted from the ground easily. A great example of this can be zoning out during an important work meeting or not paying attention when slicing an onion and slicing your hand instead! Ouch!
Spiritual grounding is being fully present in the now. It is not worrying about the future or judging the past, because that takes you out of the present moment, and the present moment is all that really exists. These days many people run on autopilot and grounding is a process of getting your attention out of your head and mind and into your body. Grounding is a great tool to help those who spend a lot of time within their mind, overthinking. Grounding your spiritual experiences, feelings, and thoughts, allows them to become developed with the power to manifest. If you have amazing visions, dreams, and ideas but are not grounded, you will find it difficult to fuse your experiences into reality, remaining grounded is key.
When you’re not grounded you may feel:

For Healers and anyone working on their spiritual development, you may allow your higher Chakras to open to the Divine realms. Sometimes being ungrounded is the only way to connect to these higher realms, but it is vital that once you finish you ground yourself back to Mother Gaia and the present moment. Make sure that you regularly ground yourself into the Earth Star Chakra. Your Earth Star Chakra is not a part of your physical body like the other seven chakras. It is located below your feet, and makes up part of your etheric body. It connects directly to the core of the Earth and to Mother Gaia.
