Explains how the chakra system helps regulate our well being and how to know if a chakra is blocked
According to Anodea Judith in her groundbreaking book, Wheels of Life; a chakra is a swirling intersection of vital life force that reflects an aspect of consciousness essential to everyone’s life. Every person has seven chakras which, together make up an individual formula that integrates mind, body, and spirit. Our chakra system is responsible for the makeup of our physical, psychological, and emotional actions. This complicated network of vortexes of energy provides the information that instructs our body and determines the reactions we all have to the way we perceive and react to the world. Each of the seven chakras is responsible for its own part of the body that makes up the whole complicated human system and within these parts of the body lies a particular physical, psychological and emotional component. To clarify, these spinning wheels or disks denote a point of intersection where body and mind meet. Also called lotuses which symbolize the unfolding of flower petals and is a metaphorical description of a chakra.
