The Chakras

The Chakra System

The chakra system is an arrangement of energy vortexes connecting the layers of the auric field with the major organs and endocrine system of the human body. The chakras directly relates to the amount of prana or energy each chakra absorbs, expels and metabolizes. Hence, if a chakra is blocked the corresponding organ and/or gland of the physical body will be affected.

The Major Chakras

There are seven major chakras and hundreds of minor chakras. The chakras can be better understood by recognizing each major chakra as a symbol of awareness. The major chakras, from the root to the crown, relate to how we live in and react to the world we live in. Each chakra reflects the level of our psychological, emotional, mental and spiritual consciousness reflecting how we live our lives.

Opening Chakras

We say the chakras are “open,” but in fact they are just more energized. Experiencing life through the chakras can be more challenging when a chakra is blocked, closed or less energized. If a chakra’s energy is reduced it inhibits the experience and information that chakra has to share. Our awareness can be heightened by opening or energizing the major chakras. This can be done in a number of different ways. 

Kundalini Awakening

The chakras are intensified by the flow of energy known as Kundalini, symbolized by a coiled serpent lying dormant in the chakra at the base of the spine. In the ancient spiritual teachings of the east the way to arouse Kundalini energy for the purpose of experiencing life through the chakras was a highly guarded secret.  The chakras, known by their Sanskrit name meaning wheel, are traditionally awakened through chants, fasting and meditation. The resulting movement of energy opens, unblocks, and stimulates each chakra to clear the pathway to enlightenment.

The Chakra Workout Meditations CD

Your conscious awareness can be enhanced through guided meditations designed to balance the energy of each chakra. The Chakra Workout Meditations CD honors your chakras as the dynamics behind your subtle and physical make-up. The three meditations are all you need to heal the emotional, mental, physical and spiritual aspects of each chakra, stimulate psychic gifts, and connect with spirit guidance.

Balancing the Chakras

As you stimulate each chakra be aware of the physical sensations, emotions, and thoughts that come up for you. For instance, as you focus on your root chakra you may physically experience warmth, tingling, and throbbing. Your emotions and thoughts would center on your security and your ability to manifest nurturing energy in your life. While your spiritual essence would center on your ability to bring the wisdom of spirit into your earthly every-day existence.
