Chakra's For Beginners

"Chakra" is the sanskrit word for wheel, and is used to describe the wheels of light or energy centers in our. body. "Man is a rainbow" That rainbow is made of 7 colors, or 7 subtle energy bodies that exist within you and have energetic fields- the seven centers of your being have seven colors and can be understood from the lowest to the highest. These energy centers start at the top of your head and travel down the base of your spine. The chakras can be an integral map to what's going in with your body and emotions. "When spinning properly, each chakra allows Qi energy to flow through the body. If these wheels of energy become blocked by stress, anxiety or emotional upheaval, your well-being can suffer". Tuning into each frequency each chakra emits- and finding out if your energy centers are balanced, blocked, or over-reactive can have a lasting impact on your life. These centers are constantly moving and vibrating and are a reflection of our inner selves.
