The Sanskrit word Chakra literally translates to wheel or disk. In yoga, meditation, and the practise of Ayurveda, this term refers to wheels of energy throughout the body.
In the human body there are seven main chakras. These chakras start from the base of the spine and move up through the crown of the head. To visualize what a chakra looks like imagine seven swirling wheels of energy each resonating its own colour. Chakras are a point where matter and consciousness meet within each person. They aid our physical, mental, and spiritual bodies to connect together and heal. This invisible healing energy, called Prana, is vital life force, which keeps us vibrant, healthy, and alive.
The state of our chakras are an essential part of our daily experiences. They are the bridge that takes us from the deepest most basic aspects of life into higher realms of healing. Each chakra has an area within the body it corresponds to as well as emotions it resonates with. If our thoughts, feelings, and ideas are blocked, our energy field will be blocked. Blocked chakras or out of balance chakras may wobble or shrink in size.
Chakras are a bridge for the mind to connect to the body via the pathway of energy. The smallest unhealthy idea will grow and develops in our energy field and then we can experience negative emotional patterns or feelings that may make us feel drained physically. Everything is connected and effects each aspect of ourselves.
If chakras stay out of balance for long enough the affects on the body can be catastrophic. Without a healthy balance of life force energy, we experience physical, emotional & mental imbalance and illnesses may follow. The body will feel dis-eased and disease can manifest and take hold physically. When our energies are balanced, we feel strong and grounded. When we are out of balance, we may feel insecure and uprooted. The longer we remain out of balance, the more disease can infiltrate into the human body. Identifying chakras that are out of balance before the affects are felt in the physical body is vital to healing ourselves.
Everyone has the potential to have a relatively balanced chakra system. Recognising the ego’s role in creating blocks in this energy system is paramount to creating a balance. For example, most children are taught “don’t talk to strangers” as we grow this belief system usually dissolves. The mind recognises that this is a belief that is no longer valid and no longer serves us. It no longer governs our beliefs and therefore it does not affect our energy systems. People who have completed a lot of energy healing work or were lucky in their upbringing may be relatively balanced but with a small amount of guidance anyone can heal.
Chakras need to be thought of as the blueprint for your own self-care. They need to be re-aligned regularly. This can be achieved through clearing negative thoughts and patterns. Meditating, yoga, and other natural forms of energy work can help achieve a balanced system. Some people prefer to have a regular routine to ensure they do not fall out of alignment and others prefer to wait until their bodies begin to fell out of alignment before balancing and clearing their energy systems. The choice is yours but once you start to keep a regular routine you’ll know right away when to tend to your chakras.
Activities that can influence our chakras health are:
What does someone with a healthy chakra system look like?
* Grounded and has a healthy relationship with their physical body
* Aware of their emotions without being ruled by them
* In good health and vitality
* Sexually content / sexually respectful without being sexually driven and disrespectful
* They would have confidence without dominating others
* Compassionate and loving, yet centered and peaceful
* Can communicate feelings or ideas with truth and clarity and be able to listen to others
* Does not judge and is understanding of differences
* Has an imagination, wisdom, and a personal connection with spirit
This is the perfection we hope to strive towards. Each person has the means to achieve it. It takes time patience and dedication, but it is possible. T he main thing to remember is that the mind, body, and spirit working together in a holistically with the seven chakras allows the chakra system to become one.
What blocks a Chakra
There are many things that can block a chakra. Childhood traumas, cultural conditioning, limited belief system, bad habits, physical and emotional injuries or even just lack of attention all contribute to chakra blockage. Depending on the cause different chakras will be affected. Each chakra governs different emotions, physicality issues and spiritual vibrations.
In everyday life we can encounter many difficulties, for every problem, we develop a coping strategy. If these difficulties continue, these coping tactics become repetitive patterns and eventual anchor in the body and psyche as defense structures. The first part of healing is to recognise a problem exists. It is important to be familiar with the blocks we carry, find, and recognize their source and why they have emerged. Once we know this, we can develop tools to heal them.
To restore balance in your chakras you must first tune into your emotions and how you are feeling. Once you have done this you can figure out which chakra needs attention. For example, if you are feeling low in energy and tired you can use the yoga pose that targets the navel area to re-energize and re-align the chakra or chakras that are affected. This pose is shown under solar plexus chakra section on this page. If you are feeling anxious and nervous you can try the root chakra pose to help rebalance your emotions and your chakras. If you are feeling like you need more courage to speak your truth, the right poses can open and stimulate the throat chakra.
