THE CHAKRAS
EXPLANATION
There are 7 chakras in the human body. They extend from the base of the spinal column “coccyx” to the top of the skull. Each is represented by a different color.
The word chakra in Sanskrit means "wheel or circle". The chakras emit vibrations and radiate energy that revolves around us in a circle.
Balanced chakras allow energy to circulate correctly in our body to allow it to be healthy mentally and physically.
Conversely, unbalanced chakras can cause imbalances that impact our physical and/or moral health.
There are various ways to rebalance your chakras, by practicing yoga, meditation, introspection or simply by being in a high vibration environment. You can also listen to sounds, recite mantras or use stones associated with chakras. Watch your diet, eating foods of the color of the unbalanced chakra.
