Instructions

    1

    Situate yourself in a comfortable position, either laying down or sitting upright. Do this alone in a dimly lit room. It is ideal to use dim candlelight while partaking in spiritual meditations or rituals of most types. Be free of interruptions or noise.

    2

    Hold the tiger's eye stone in the palm of your hand. Close your eyes and familiarize yourself, with your sense of touch, the characteristics of your tiger's eye stone. This improves your focus and also helps you identify with your stone to build a link with it.

    3

    Lie on your back if you are not already. Do this with your shirt either off or lifted up above your waist. Place the tiger's eye stone on your navel. This is the navel center chakra, or solar plexus, and its colors correspond with the colors of the stone. The solar plexus is ruled by the sun, which also corresponds with the colors of a tiger's eye. This is ultimate balance and brings healing to your lower body and internal organs, according to spiritualists who study gemstone healing.

    Breathe in deeply and exhale, keeping your eyes closed. Focus your energy source to localize around the solar plexus, emanating from the gemstone in your navel area. Do this for as long as you feel is necessary.
