Chakras are the energy centers that run within the physical body and extend beyond it and made up of the aura. In sanskrit the word chakra means “disk or wheel”.
Chakras are a way to allow universal energy to flow to your physical body. It has been said that we literally have hundreds of chakras that run within and around our physical bodies.
Most people know and talk about the 7 main chakras because they are specifically aligned within and up the spine and beyond of the physical body.
They are linked to specific areas of the physical body and correspond to particular nerve centers. These main chakras are very important for the health and vitality of the physical body.
What does a Chakra do?
These energy centers are spinning discs of light that govern our physical, mental, emotional and spiritual well-being.
