Chakra Therapy And Chakra Meditation
There are energy-wheels known as chakras which line up along the central line of everyone.
It is generally accepted that there are seven of these chakra energy-wheels, although some practitioners maintain that there are in fact 14.
These begin at the lowest base of the body (thought of as either the base of the spine or the genitals) and extending in their order to a person’s crown (tippy top of the head).
In between there are: the orange chakra of the womb or belly; the golden chakra of the solar plexus; the green chakra of the heart; the blue chakra of the throat; and the indigo chakra known as the third eye, on the center of the forehead. The base chakra is red, and the crown chakra is violet right above the head but as its circumference extends outward, away from the head, it turns whiter.
As well as each chakra being associated with a particular color, they are numbered from one to seven with the base chakra being number one and the crown chakra being number seven.
The first of these chakras is responsible for our vitality, sexual and physical health.

Balance Your Chakras For A Much Healthier Life
Everything is said to be in its best when at equilibrium, the environment that protects us, the mind that guides us as well as the chakras in our body. Along with the physical existence in this world we also have a spiritual existence, what we call our soul, our conscience.
Anything that we do requires an apt combination of both sides of our existence and while nutrition plays the role of the energizer for our body and provides us with the strength and the power, the chakras play a similar role for the comfort of our soul. Hence the maintenance of chakra balance is highly critical.
Chakra balance is a follow up after the cleansing of the chakras is completed. Once the chakras are able to free themselves of negative energy and bring in the positive, their cleansing process is said to be over. The heavenly bodies are said to play a significant role in the exchange of energies in this way.
Chakra balance is obtained by ensuring that the energy exchange takes place for each chakra so that not only the individual chakra is balanced but an overall chakra balance can be seen for the human being, which would mean that all your body parts are in the best of conditions and you are in great health.
What Is So Beneficial About Chakra Meditation?
Chakras are the focal points for universal energy which flows through us, whether we know it or not. Your chakras have a profound influence on your life whether this effect is good, such as when they are properly aligned for energy flow or whether this effect is for the worse, like when they are blocked, preventing the flow of energy or are out of alignment.
Chakra comes from the Sanksrit word for energy. Although the concept comes to us from the Hindu faith, our energy centers care little what, if any religion we ourselves may practice. Energy is instead a universal force possessed by every person. The physical manifestation of the path through which this energy flows in and out of our auras is the Chakras.
Ensuring that your chakras are aligned will allow you to better understand yourself; in body, mind and spirit. Most people are unbalanced, with their chakras being unaligned. Chakra meditation is for that reason a very useful practice. You must first know where your chakras are and their function in order to begin chakra meditation.
