The Seven Chakras
Energy Healing & Spiritual Guidance

7 Chakras Every cell in your body vibrates constantly with energy and many cultures have accepted the fact that the body draws in energy from a universal energy field. The word chakra (pronounced sha-kra) comes from the Indian word meaning Sanskrit or wheel. The chakras move with a spinning motion and form a vortex which filter the energy and disperse it throughout your body.

The wheel or chakra spins according to the amount of energy that your system is taking in from the universal energy field. They are associated to your Endocrine System and to different physical systems and organs. Your chakras evolve naturally over a long period of time as part of your development. They are not separate from one another but are constantly interacting and the energy is always moving through them. This energy can lessen if your life is out of balance because of negative emotions and stress and because of this you can manifest illness and depression. During a healing session the chakras must be balanced to heal the patient.

The beautiful lotus flower which is like a water lily and grows in Asia is likened to your chakras and each chakra is represented by a number of lotus petals. So the chakras can be closed, in bud, opening or blossoming, active or dormant. The roots are deeply buried in the mud and its flower blooms upon the surface. This is representative of your emotions and humankind itself.
