Chakra Balancer

Read full description

Chakra Balancer guides you through a simple pendulum practice to bring awareness and balance to each of your seven energy centers - one at a time, at your own pace. No experience needed. Just a pendulum (or a ring on a piece of thread) and a few quiet minutes. HOW IT WORKS Each session moves through all seven chakras in order, from Root to Crown. For each one, a full-screen color fills your display - the traditional color associated with that energy center. Hold your pendulum over the screen, breathe, and let it move. When it slows and stills, that chakra feels complete. Tap to move on. The app keeps your screen on throughout the session so you can focus on the practice, not your phone. WHAT'S INCLUDED Guided session through all 7 chakras in sequence Full-screen chakra color display for each energy center Affirmation shown for each chakra Built-in onboarding to teach you the practice from scratch Screen stays on automatically during your session Clean, distraction-free design YOUR SEVEN CHAKRAS Root (Red) - Grounding and security Sacral (Orange) - Creativity and flow Solar Plexus (Yellow) - Confidence and will Heart (Green) - Love and compassion Throat (Blue) - Communication and truth Third Eye (Indigo) - Intuition and clarity Crown (Violet) - Connection and consciousness GETTING STARTED If you're new to pendulum work, the built-in tutorial walks you through everything - what a pendulum is, how to hold it, how to read its movement, and how to approach each chakra with intention. A NOTE ON THE PRACTICE Chakra Balancer is a tool for personal reflection and intentional wellness practice. It is not a medical device and does not diagnose or treat any condition.
