What are Chakras?

I am... The word “Chakra” comes from ancient Sanskrit meaning “wheel”.  These energy centres are located from the base of the spine to the very top of the head and correspond with organs and nerve bundles throughout the body. They help to regulate the processes of the body from organ function to the immune system and even our emotions.

When one or more of these “wheels” stops spinning we can end up with blockages of energy and the other wheels can start spinning too fast to try and compensate.  Maintaining the flow of energy through these centres helps to ensure the balance of our emotional, mental, physical and spiritual health as everything is connected.
