CHAKRAS
The word " chakra " comes from the sanskrit language and literally means " wheel " or " disc ". Just as we have the veins in our body carrying blood to our major organs, we also have veins of energy (nadis) carrying this energy to our major energy centres (chakras). This takes place within our " etheric body " which is a few inches outwards from our physical body.
We have many chakras in our body, but healers and energy workers tend to work with the seven major ones.
Our 1st chakra is located at the base of the spine and is associated with survival, identity and being grounded.
Our 2nd is located in the lower abdomen and is associated with relationships, creativity and sexuality.
Our 3rd is located just below the ribs at our sternum and is associated with personal power, vitality and digestion.
Our 4th is located at the heart and is associated with love, emotions and compassion.
Our 5th is located in the throat and is associated with communication, self-expression and speaking your truth.
Our 6th is located in the centre of the forehead and is associated with mental clarity, intuition and imagination.
Our 7th is located at the top of the head and is associated with wisdom, knowledge and understanding.
