Chakra Healing

Chakras are the energy centers of our body through which our bodily energy flows. They are responsible for our physical and spiritual functioning. They absorb and transmit life force energy from the universe, nature and people in the surroundings. From traditional aspect it is believed that there are thousands of chakras in our body but only few of them have very significant roles to play. Unbalanced or blocked chakras cause physical and mental ailments.

Here are some basic information I would like to share about 7 vital chakras in our body that you should know from healing point of view:

1^st chakra: Root; if this chakra is unbalanced then possible ailments could be arthritis, leg pain, constipation. This chakra is related to life’s basic necessities like shelter, food, money. A balanced root chakra gives us a sense of connection to physical world. The chakra color is red, black, and brown and recommend stone is garnet, onyx, red jasper. You may also want to eat red foods such as tomatoes, red peppers, beetroot, and strawberries to help unblock root chakra.

2^nd chakra: Belly or naval; issues like low libido, bladder issues may occur. The second chakra is related to our ability to express emotions, our creativity, addictions, sexuality, and passion. Here the chakra color is orange and stones line carnelian and orange zincite are beneficial in bringing balance to this chakra. Food habits to keep this chakra from blocking would be carrots, oranges and capsicums, basically orange foods.

4^th chakra: heart; issues in relation with heart area including asthma, lung disease, chest issues and upper back and shoulder problems. This chakra also covers the emotional issues of heart such as anger and love.
