The ancient Incan practice of Chumpi Stones Healing is a profound spiritual tradition that works to balance and cleanse the energy centers, also known as chakras.

Led by Master Don Alejandro Apaza, the last great Chumpi Paqo of the Apaza family, this healing technique brings together centuries of wisdom from the Andean mountains of Peru.
The term “Chumpi” means “belt” in Quechua.
Each belt represents a protective ring of energy that surrounds and shields a person.
These belts correspond to the body’s energy centers, forming a powerful defense against harmful energies.
Over time, these energy centers can become obstructed or weakened, making it essential to clear and balance them through the healing power of Chumpi stones.
What to Expect in a Healing Session
The Healing Process

Participants in a Chumpi Stones Healing session receive cleansing, blessings, and energetic protection.
The process involves activating the connection to the seven sacred spirits of the Chumpi stones, which correspond to the seven energy centers or chakras.
Master practitioners guide participants to relax and allow the stones to work, channeling prayers and intentions to the sacred spirits of nature.
The Role of the Stones Healing
Chumpi stones, crafted from alabaster and hand-carved by artisans of the Qero Nation, are essential tools in this healing practice. Their purpose includes:
- Clearing and Balancing Energy: Opening and clearing blocked or weakened energy centers (called Ñawis in Quechua).
- Grounding and Protection: Forming protective rings or energy fields known as “The Bands of Power.”
- Restoring Harmony: Harmonizing the spiritual, physical, and energetic bodies.
- Soul Retrieval: In cases where a person’s essence feels fragmented, the Chumpi stones assist in calling back their soul to wholeness.

Connecting to the Andean Cosmology
In Chumpi healing, the three dimensions of the Andean world play a vital role:
- Hannaq Pacha: The upper world, representing the spiritual realm and divine connection.
- Kay Pacha: The middle world, symbolizing the physical and everyday life.
- Ukhu Pacha: The inner world, encompassing the subconscious and ancestral ties.
By aligning these dimensions, Chumpi Stones Healing fosters a holistic sense of well-being and harmony.
