“There is deep wisdom within our very flesh, if we can only come to our senses and feel it,” said author Elizabeth A. Behnke.
That big idea is the inspiration for Chakra Jewelry by Hope, a line of colorful, elegant handmade necklace, bracelet and earring sets that aim to help you open to all the possibilities of your beautiful life.

Embrace Your Power: Red
Financial independence, courage to live your dreams, and confidence in yourself—these are the qualities that make your root Chakra strong.
It is balanced when you feel secure about your career, home, family, and future. From the base of your spine, imagine roots growing from your feet into the earth. Ground yourself by knowing that you are safe and protected.
Root Chakra: Muladhara
Balance: Orange
Abundance, wellbeing, pleasure, and sexual health are the attributes of this Chakra.
Situated midway between your navel and the base of your spine, you are happiest when your body is healthy.
Stand firmly, radiate love from your core, and belly dance to balance this Chakra.
Sacral Chakra: Swadhisthana
Glow Like the Sun: Yellow
The ability to feel in control of your life starts in the gut. Located behind your navel, envision this Chakra full of sunshine, for it is in balance when you feel calm about your present and in control of your future.
Radiate confidence, and your solar plexus will glow.
Solar Plexus Chakra: Manipura
Love With All of Your Heart: Pink and Green
Joy and inner peace are central to your heart being happy.
This central spot is the beginning of your spiritual life, and is balanced when you feel good about your relationships with your lovers and friends, kids and parents.
Honor them, forgive them, and embrace the bliss that is around you as you tap into the strength of your heart.
Heart Chakra: Anahata
Speak Well: Blue
Your true self is communicated through the honesty of your words.
Envision your Throat Chakra radiating out into to the universe, spreading messages of love and peace, and sharing ideas about how to make the world a better place.
Speak well—with clarity, honesty, and passion. You will be heard.
Throat Chakra: Vishuddha
See Clearly: Purple
The ability to focus on, and clearly see the big picture of your life, stems from a special spot in your brow—your third eye.
Focus on your future, appreciate all that you have learned in the past, and meditate on your inner knowing.
Third Eye Chakra: Ajna
Dream + Believe: Brown and Black
From light to dark, embrace all that is coming your way, and know that your dreams can become your reality.
Listen closely to your inner knowing using the two Chakras situated above your ears. Breathe deeply, and be open to hearing all that is possible.
Temple Chakras: Astaroth
Sparkle: White and Crystal
In that space between sleep and awake, you know who you are and what you truly want.
Perhaps more importantly, you know what your purpose is here on earth.
Your temple Chakras (there are two of them, of course) relate to divine communication and your relationship with God. Believe, and act to make your dreams come true.
Crown Chakra: Sahasrara
