What are Chakras?
Wheel-like vortices or “force centers’ permeating from a point in the physical body to the outermost layers of the subtle body in an ever-increasing fan formation. These rotating wheels are considered focal points in the reception and transmission of energy. Each Chakra corresponds with a different energy, color, body part, function, and emotional energy. The Chakras run along the base of the spine (root) and move upward toward the skull (crown). The Chakras are a meeting point of body and mind and spirit and matter. They have been called “windows to the soul” because they provide us with subtle connections to consciousness. Because Chakras can correlate with the body, its energy, its experiences and emotions, we sometimes experience “blockages.” When we remove a “blockage” from our Chakra, we are also eliminating it from our lives. Through connecting with these energy centers, we learn a lot about ourselves.
