Crystal Healing, Chakra Balancing & More by John Cartwright is a comprehensive guide to working with gemstones for spiritual and physical wellbeing. Drawing from ancient healing traditions and the author’s extensive personal experience since 2003, this book provides practical instruction on how to use crystals to balance your energy centers (chakras) and maintain optimal energetic flow throughout your body.

The book is structured in five parts:

Part 1: Working with Gemstones introduces the history of crystal healing across various cultures and provides detailed guidance on assembling your own gemstone chakra bags. Cartwright explains which specific stones work with each energy center and how to use them effectively for chakra balancing.

Part 2: Maintaining the “Good Feeling” Space offers techniques to sustain the balanced state achieved through crystal work. This includes healthy eating practices based on natural foods, meditation techniques, Sanskrit mantras for each chakra, and Dr. Wright’s Cleaning Out Technique—a powerful pranayama practice for energetic cleansing.

Part 3: Manifesting While in the “Good Feeling” Space explores how to harness your balanced energetic state to bring desires into reality. The author shares wisdom on the power of thoughts, affirmations, universal laws, and specific manifestation exercises including deliberate creation workshops and meditations.

Part 4: Spiritual Practice provides a framework for incorporating these techniques into a consistent 40-day spiritual practice. Cartwright shares his personal routine and offers guidance on designing your own practice tailored to your unique needs and schedule.

Part 5: You Possess the Ultimate Super Weapon concludes with teachings on directing light energy for healing and transformation. The author emphasizes our responsibility to send healing light not only for personal wellbeing but also to those in need and to the planet itself.

Written from years of personal experience and practice, Crystal Pathways offers readers both the foundational knowledge and practical techniques needed to work with gemstones for chakra balancing, healing, and manifestation. Cartwright’s approach combines ancient wisdom with accessible modern practices, making crystal healing available to anyone seeking greater balance, healing, and connection to their inner guidance.
