Chakra is a basic Sanskrit term which means “wheel” or “disc-shaped”. When we relate chakras to the human body, it symbolises the energy centres of the body. Chakras in a human body process the collection, processing and emanation of energies to keep our body functions intact. They can be termed as a spinning wheel of energies. To understand the energy flows in the body and the associated outputs we need to have a basic understanding of the various chakras present in our subtle body.
Chakras And Human Body
Apart from the 7 major chakras, the human body consists of numerous minor chakras. Any obstacle in the smooth functioning of these chakras leads to stabilization in the body elements. Any blockage in the chakras can lead to minor to major illness due to improper energy flows. Even small periods of depression, suppressed feelings of anger etc., improper nourishment, unethical activities like telling a lie can affect the smooth or unrestrained energy flow through the chakras. On the other hand, proper nourishment, ethical lifestyle, physical/mental/emotional/spiritual heath if taken care can lead to optimum or boosted flows through the energy chakras. Yoga or Reiki is a form of lifestyles that can help enhance fixing the blockages and ensure smooth energy flows.
Let us talk about the vital or major chakras along with their basic traits.
