chakra cleansing

Ever heard of chakra cleansing? We are all energies and we vibrate accordingly to different energies present.  The chakras in your body equally relate to the different functionalities in the body system.  Once you understand about chakra, you can use different chakra cleansing ways to balance your energies.  Literally the word ‘chakra’ means wheel or disk in Sanskrit.  There are 7 main chakras in which the energy flows through. They are located in the midline of the body. The 7 chakras align the spine from the root to the top which is the crown chakra.  Since they represent energies, they often affect the way we love if the energies are blocked. This energy is invisible in nature and is called the vital force, that is, prana.  It is thus very important to know about all the chakras and how to balance the energies so that we stay in good health mentally, physical or even emotionally strong. The chakras are equally related to different sounds which are recommended to be used in meditation. There are different ways for chakra cleansing which will be discussed later.

When the chakras are open and are in alignment, you experience a beauty surge of energy all the time. You feel highly inspirational, motivated, grounded, strong, powerful and consciously aware of what you need to do because you listen to your intuition. If there is any blockage, you will feel exhausted or experience other forms of illnesses.  All the chakras are connected because of this swirling wheels. They relate to the nerves and major organs including psychological, emotional and spiritual states of beings.  Using chakra cleansing methods, you can easily activate the energies.
