Chakra Healing For Beginners

Chakra healing is an ancient practice that has been used for centuries to promote physical, mental and spiritual wellbeing. The word ‘chakra’ comes from the Sanskrit language and means ‘wheel’ or ‘circle’. There are seven main chakras located along the central axis of the body, from the base of the spine to the crown of the head. Each chakra is associated with a different area of the body and with a particular colour, element and animal.
 
The practice of chakra healing involves working with the energy centres in the body to promote balance and wellbeing. It is said that when the chakras are in balance, we are able to function at our optimum level, physically, mentally and emotionally. When one or more of the chakras are out of balance, it is said to lead to physical, mental or emotional issues.
 
There are many different ways to work with the chakras. Some common techniques include meditation, visualization, aromatherapy, and massage. Chakra healing can be done alone or with the help of a qualified practitioner.
