Chakras 101
Chakras are energy centers in your energetic or spiritual body. The word ‘Chakra’ itself means ‘wheel’ or ‘vortex’ and comes from the tantric and yogic traditions of Hinduism and Buddhism.
Everyone has seven major chakras, as well as several ‘secondary’ chakras. The main chakras are: the Root Chakra, which is located at the base of your spine; the Sacral (or Navel) Chakra, which is located at the level of your belly button; the Solar Plexus Chakra, which is located unsurprisingly at your solar plexus; your Heart Chakra, which resides in your heart; the Throat Chakra, which is at the center of your throat; the Third Eye Chakra, which is located just between your eyebrows; and your Crown Chakra, which sits atop your head.
Each of these Chakras governs a different energy or aspect of who you are. The Root Chakra governs courage and stability; the Navel Chakra governs your ability to feel pleasure; the Solar Plexus Chakra governs the ego, identity and confidence; the Heart Chakra governs all emotions and the ability to feel; the Throat Chakra governs all forms of communication and self-expression; the Third Eye Chakra governs our psychic abilities and the ability to distinguish truth from lies; and finally the Crown Chakra governs our connection to the Divine itself.
Sometimes, through the rigors of everyday living, we encounter negative energies, situations, and people that can clutter and clog our Chakras, thus putting them out of balance and leaving us feeling low in energy, dissatisfied, and generally ill-at ease. When people talk about Chakra balancing, they are generally referring to fixing an imbalance in this energy. Most often, people have problems with underperforming Chakra points, but Chakras can sometimes be overactive as well, which still requires a similar balancing treatment.
