In the Yogic concept, Chakra literally means a wheel of disc that enables energy to flow through or around it at various speeds. <\/p>\n
There are seven main chakras and they are located along the spine extending out the front and back of the body. Each chakra has a number of specific qualities that correspond to the refinement of energy from the base level up to our crown.<\/p>\n
The first three chakras, starting at the base of the spine are chakras of matter. They are more physical in nature.<\/p>\n
First Chakra: The Muladhara is the chakra of stability, security, and our basic needs. It encompasses the first three vertebrae, the bladder, and the colon. When this chakra is open, we feel safe and fearless.<\/p>\n
Second Chakra: The Svadhisthana chakra is our creativity and sexual center. It is located above the pubic bone, below the navel, and is responsible for our creative expression.<\/p>\n
Third Chakra: The Manipura chakra means lustrous gem and it\u2019s the area from the navel to the breastbone. The third chakra is our source of personal power.<\/p>\n
Fifth Chakra: The Vishuddha chakra is the fifth chakra, located in the area of the throat. This is our source of verbal expression and the ability to speak our highest truth. The fifth chakra includes the neck, thyroid, and parathyroid glands, jaw, mouth, and tongue.<\/p>\n
Sixth Chakra: The Ajna chakra is located in between the eyebrows. It is also referred to as the \u201cthird eye\u201d chakra. Ajna is our center of intuition. We all have a sense of intuition but we may not listen to it or heed its warnings. Focus on opening the sixth chakra will help you hone this ability.<\/p>\n
Seventh Chakra: The Sahaswara chakra or the \u201cthousand petal lotus\u201d chakra is located at the crown of the head. This is the chakra of enlightenment and spiritual connection to our higher selves, others, and ultimately, to the divine. It is located at the crown of the head.<\/p>\n
Some of our chakras are usually not open all the way, but some are over-active, or even near closed. If the chakras are not balanced, peace with the self cannot be achieved. Opening your Chakras and allowing a healthy flow of energy is a powerful tool for staying balanced, maintaining good health and advancing spiritually.<\/p>\n
