‘Chakras’ – (Hindu, meaning wheel) - are etherical energy centres of the body. There are seven Energy centres, or Chakras in the human body (and hundreds of minor ones), which receive, assimilate and distribute energy. This energy or life force enters our bodies through our electromagnetic field, know as the aura.
The seven energy centres resonate and vibrate to the same frequencies of the rainbow colours and their corresponding sound vibrations of the C scale. When Chakras are evenly balanced and in tune with each other, our physical, mental and spiritual selves are working in harmony for optimum health and wellbeing. However, when one or more of these energy centres slows down, the result is dis-ease of some sort resulting in limited function, illness and aging.
There are corresponding Chakras on the front and back of the body, which act as funnels for receiving energy. Chakras also exist in the hands and feet and minor ones are located at the various joints through the body. Each Chakra has it’s own specific colour, musical pitch, syllable, purpose and location and when they are spinning in harmony, the body is balanced. Below you will find details on each chakra.
