Theory: Chakras are energy points in specific places in the body that directly affect our being on multiple levels of existence. As the West comes to embrace Eastern philosophies and practices, chakras have become a topic of debate for many people.
The chakras govern physical and intangible aspects of ourselves. Noticing them not spinning in alignment will have physical and spiritual symptoms. There are ways to nurture them directly, but by treating the symptoms, you can realign the source.
There are seven main chakras in the body and like most formations of the body, they can fix themselves to an extent. The more you practice with them and actively care for their maintenance, the better they will function. The chakras are normally visualised as spinning balls of energy located along the spine at specific junctions. Even if you don’t subscribe to notions of spirituality attached to chakras, they are still a great way to group together and connect physical, mental and emotional aspects of your being.
There are many ways to correct the alignment of chakras, according to many schools of thought and disciplines. You can also ‘free style’ it as your connection and awareness grow. Chakras are immersed in every aspect of our being, so there are many ways to affect them. Anything from music to ecstatic dance action and intent can harmonise and bring balance to your life.
I’ve listed the major chakras in ascending order with general information on each. Keep in mind that chakra energy flows from the bottom upward. So you may see issues with your throat chakra but you need to make sure all the chakras preceding it are in line first. Keep in mind that a basic visualisation meditation can go a long way in fixing the chakras.
