The Truth About “Chakra Fixing” Scams
Share
Shadow + Truth Entry #3
If you’ve ever had a psychic or healer tell you, “Your chakras are blocked — but for $200, I can fix them by sending crystal energy through the universe”, you’ve probably felt a mix of fear and confusion.
Let’s cut through the mystery. This is one of the oldest scams in the spiritual playbook — and here’s why you shouldn’t fall for it.
Why This Claim is a Red Flag
When someone says they can “fix” your chakras for a fee, especially at a distance with no interaction, they’re often:
- Creating fear so you’ll feel urgency to pay them.
- Positioning themselves as the only solution to your “problem.”
- Offering no tangible proof or participation, which means you’re left trusting a process you can’t see or verify.
The Grain of Truth (and How It Gets Twisted)
Energy healing is real. Crystals, sound, meditation, and intention can influence your energy state — but here’s the key:
Your own awareness and willingness to shift are what make the change stick.
A skilled practitioner can hold space, guide you, and use tools to support your process. But no one — not even the best healer — can permanently “clear” your chakras for you without your involvement.
What Chakras Really Are
Chakras are not mechanical parts. They’re energy centers that reflect:
- Your emotional state
- Your belief patterns
- Your physical and mental health
- Your sense of safety and empowerment
When a chakra feels “blocked,” it usually means there’s an imbalance in how you’re processing life — not that something is broken.
How Real Chakra Balancing Works
Authentic chakra work looks like:
- Self-reflection — noticing thoughts, emotions, and patterns tied to each chakra.
- Embodiment practices — breathwork, yoga, dance, or mindful movement.
- Supportive tools — crystals, sound frequencies, aromatherapy, journaling.
- Energetic facilitation — a practitioner guiding you through a session where you’re present and aware.
The difference? You’re involved in the process.
