Chakrubs are versatile tools that go beyond the surface. They aren’t just for one thing or another - they offer different ways to connect with yourself, whether that’s physically, emotionally, or energetically. In addition to the non-sexual ways we’ve explored previously in this article, here are seven more approaches to using Chakrubs that you might not have considered yet.
1. For Healing
Crystals are often used to aid in healing, and Chakrubs are no exception. By bringing intentionality into how you use them, they can become a steady companion on your healing journey. Whether you’re working with physical or emotional wounds, placing your Chakrub in a special place - like an altar or a crystal grid - can help you stay connected to your healing process.
Some people even sleep with their Chakrubs under their pillows or carry them during the day, letting their presence serve as a gentle reminder of what they’re working through. There’s no strict formula here - just find what feels right and see how it shifts your energy.
2. For Pleasure
At its core, Chakrubs are also about pleasure - but it’s the kind of pleasure that invites presence and intention. Whether you’re exploring solo or with a partner, using a Chakrub in intimate settings can be a way to bring mindfulness into your body. Instead of rushing, you’re encouraged to slow down and feel into every sensation.
Many Chakrubs are designed with two different ends - one larger and one smaller - offering you flexibility as you explore. Whether you’re focused on building a deeper connection with your body or trying something new, these tools invite you to move at your own pace, staying present with whatever comes up.
3. For Dilation
For those who need to practice gentle dilation, Chakrubs can offer a helpful solution. The double-sided design (larger and smaller ends) gives you the option to ease into the process. It’s not about pushing yourself too far, too fast - it’s about creating space, comfort, and flexibility, all while listening to what your body needs.
Dilation can sometimes be a sensitive journey, so the mindful nature of working with a crystal tool can help create a safer, more relaxed experience. Take your time, stay present with your body, and allow it to guide you.
4. For Cervical De-Armouring
Cervical de-armouring is about releasing deep-seated tension or emotional blocks that may have settled in the body over time. Using a Chakrub for this can support that process by helping you tune into areas that feel tender or closed off, and working gently with those sensations.
De-armouring is a slow process, and it’s important to move through it with care. There’s no rush to “fix” anything. Instead, it’s about showing up for yourself, being open to what your body is holding, and creating a space for it to let go when it’s ready.
5. For Strengthening the Pelvic Floor
Strengthening the pelvic floor is another way Chakrubs can be used, particularly with yoni eggs. Using a yoni egg can help you build awareness and strength in the pelvic floor area, which not only supports physical health but can also enhance your energetic well-being.
The practice is simple - just insert the yoni egg and focus on engaging the muscles. Regular practice can help strengthen these muscles over time, but it’s not just about the physical workout. It’s about tuning into that part of your body, building a stronger connection, and staying present with the subtle changes that come with regular use.
6. For Channeling
Chakrubs aren’t only physical tools; they can also be used for energetic work, including channeling. Crystals have long been seen as conduits for spiritual energy, and Chakrubs are no different. Holding your Chakrub during meditation or ritual can help you tune into messages, insights, or downloads from your higher self or other sources of wisdom.
To get started, simply hold your Chakrub and focus on your breath. Let yourself drop into a quiet, receptive state and see what comes through. Some people experience thoughts, images, or sensations. It’s all about trusting what arises and letting the crystal be a bridge between you and the information you’re receiving.
7. For Self-Love
Chakrubs aren’t just about exploring physical pleasure - they’re also about cultivating a deeper sense of self-love. Using them in a self-massage practice, for example, can help you reconnect with your body in a way that feels nurturing and affirming.
Whether it’s a breast massage, holding a Chakrub over your heart, or simply using it as a focal point during affirmations, this practice is all about taking time for yourself. It’s about reminding yourself that you are deserving of care and that your body is something to honor, not rush past.
Each approach to using Chakrubs is a way of reconnecting with yourself. Whether you’re seeking healing, exploring pleasure, or just holding space for quiet moments of self-love, let your Chakrub guide you. There’s no rush - no right or wrong - only a chance to discover something meaningful within your own practice.
