ABOUT YOUR CHAKRAS
WHAT ARE THE CHAKRAS AND WHY ARE THEY IMPORTANT?
“Chakra” in Sanskrit means “wheel”. There are a total of seven main chakras, or spinning wheels of energy, that runs vertically through our bodies connecting the physical body, mind, and spirit. These wheels refer to the body’s main energy centers that work directly with the energy of our thoughts, feelings, experiences, and actions. In short, chakras act as conductors for energetic harmony throughout our entire being.
An open or high-functioning chakra is the key to our general well-being. We experience good physical health, aligned emotions, a clear mind, self-confidence, love, and a sense of spiritual connection in this state of being.
Alternatively, when a chakra is hindered or “blocked” it means that the energy center is not functioning as it should. With a malfunctioning chakra, an individual can experience possible mental health issues, behavioral issues, mood swings, physical ailments, and more. This is where chakra balancing therapies are beneficial to bring everything back into alignment. We encourage you to learn more about our Reiki and Crystal Therapy energy healing services for balancing chakras by scheduling a Chakra Reading to get started!
