The mainstream critic still poo-poos words like “chakra” & “aura” -until they go for an energy healing session, of course! In my opinion, it’s simple education and personal experimentation that turns a skeptic into a believer. I’ve been doing energy work for years and can tell you I’ve witnessed dramatic results from working with someone’s energy field.
Chakras are energy centers that initiate from the midline of the body. There are 7 major chakras that get the most publicity, but actually, there are hundreds of chakras (energy centers) that exist for each person. As your health is stable and balanced, your chakras tend to be the same, and vice versa. The use of energy healing, Reiki, hands-on healing and other forms of energy medicine such as acupuncture have a physical affect on your health.
I’m sure you’ve heard common sayings such as “I feel ungrounded,” or “I feel like I’ve been swept off my feet.” These refer to an innate sense of not having our “feet on the ground” which is usually a sign of an imbalance in the root chakra (at the base of your spine). With hands-on energy healing, the chakra can be balanced and a person will feel “grounded,” or “centered” or “whole.” This idea applies to all of the chakras and what they represent physically. A host of emotional and physical ailments can help be restored with chakra balancing.
In light of not reinventing the wheel, I found a practical website with easy descriptions and tips to balance your chakras. Here it is: http://www.eclecticenergies.com/chakras/introduction.php
