A Chakra(pronounced "cha"-"kra") is a center of energy. Originating from Sanskrit, it literally means “wheel” by association with its function as a vortex of spinning energy interacting with various systems in the body. When you look at how the energy flows from the chakras throughout the body it looks like branches and roots of a tree.
While the first references to Chakras were found in Hindu scriptures, the teachings of Buddhists, Tibetans, Mayans, Kabbalists, and Christians, among others, acknowledge the chakras(energy centers) and refer to a similar system in their teachings.
These energy centers within the human body help to regulate the body from organ function to the immune system and emotions. We naturally experience energy blocks, stagnation, and imbalance in our Chakras. It is unavoidable.
Everything has energy and can have a positive or negative effect. Emotions are even energy. Negative or repressed thoughts, memories, emotions, and beliefs can cause energy blocks or sluggish centers. Long-standing fears and trauma from childhood, crowded shopping centers/events, bad traffic jams, and major life/world events can negatively impact our energy centers.
Although there are 114 Chakras, four are dormant and two are outside the physical body. That leaves us with 108 active Chakras but we will only be covering the 7 main Chakras. These seven are positioned throughout your body, from the base of your spine to the crown of your head. Each Chakra has its own vibrational frequency, that is depicted through a specific Chakra color, and governs specific functions. The 7 main Chakras play a big role in balancing your Mind, Body, and Spirit.
