Exploring Chakras: A Beginners Introduction

Are you ready to tap into your inner energetic power, bringing more balance and harmony into your life? Learning how to balance your chakras could be the missing piece of your healing journey.

You may have heard of chakras in a yoga class or while exploring various spiritual practices on your own personal journey. But what exactly are chakras, and how can they impact your life?

 

What is a Chakra?

Chakras are energy centers in the body that are connected to our physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being. There are seven main chakras, each with its own unique characteristics, such as colour, sound frequency and connection to different parts of the body. 

When your chakras are in balance, you will likely feel grounded, centered, and in tune with yourself. But when one or more chakras become blocked or imbalanced, that’s when things just feel off, and this imbalance can manifest in your physical or emotional body.
