What are Chakras?

Seven spirals of energy known as chakras can be found a vertical formation from our tailbone to the top of our head.  Meaning ‘wheels of light’ in Sanskrit, Chakras filter energy by allowing good energy in and disposing of unwanted energy from vital areas of our bodies. As well as working with the energy around us, Chakras interact closely with our bodies’ organs and endocrine glands, which regulate hormones. When all of our chakras are balanced we feel healthy, strong and emotionally well. Yet Chakras that are out of balance can cause illness, psychological blocks and emotional problems. 

Chakras were first derived from Hindu culture and are often depicted as coloured lotus flowers positioned along the spine, ascending from the base. The lotus flower represents human potential, as the lotus starts its life at the bottom a of muddy pond, yet rises and blossoms in the light above. The lotus flower’s transformation symbolises everyone’s potential to grow and prosper, something that balanced chakras can facilitate.

Keeping our seven major chakras balanced can help achieve optimum physical, emotional and spiritual health. Spiritual balance achieved through the seven major chakras allows us to tackle all of life’s lessons with grace and ease.

The colours and areas of the seven main chakras are depicted in the beautiful image (found on weheartit.com) below.
