“Chakra” is a Sanskrit word that literally means ‘wheel.’ A chakra is an indivisible center of spinning energy through which we are able to transmit social spiritual energy. We have 7 chakras in total, which have both physical and emotional connection with the body.
The chakras are located along the spine extending out the front and back of the body.
- crown chakra – connection with universe. spiritual
- third eye chakra – extra vision
- throat chakra – communication
- heart chakra – love
- solar plexus chakra – personal power
- sacral chakra – creativity
- base chakra – who you are, where you belong
If the energy of one of the chakra’s becomes blocked, the physical or emotional being of the person can be affected. The results might be that you feel emotional, sensitive, lethargic, experience stomach problems, poor communication, etc. These symptoms can sometimes be resolved by the use of hot stones.
