Balancing The Chakras


 
 

What are Chakras?

The purpose of the chakra energy centres is a balanced flow of energy, which helps us maintain psychological, emotional, physical, and spiritual balance.  All the chakras are focused areas of vital living energy within our bodies that regulate all their unique functions.

We are all created of energy which helps us function in our daily lives, but sometimes our life energy becomes drained and unbalanced.

The Seven chakras – are set from the base of your spine to the crown of your head, and each chakra controls individual body systems and functions. By researching the main chakras, we become aware of areas in our body that feel stuck, inactive, or holding on to any source of stress in our energy, meaning that those chakras are out of balance.

We are all born with these energy centres in our bodies, and learning about how they manage our whole systems can help us live healthier, happier lives both physically and emotionally, and looking after all the chakras, you will develop an appreciation and an awareness of the role that energy plays in every element of your being.
Since the mind, body, soul, and spirit are all connected, being aware of a blockage in one chakra will help bring everything else into balance.

Start with the bigger picture:

In Sanskrit, the word chakra means – spinning wheel and individuals imagine the chakras as moving circles and define them as vibrating or revolving energy centres.

Eastern traditions place chakras at the links where the physical and the spiritual bodies connect at the seven major energetic focal points called chakras, functioning from the base of the spine, the root chakra, the head, and the crown chakra.


How to explain Chakras Colours:

Chakras radiate energy vibrations, which coordinate to a colour wavelength-for example- Red is the colour of the root chakra and has a longer wavelength and slow frequency and is the most significant of the seven chakras. Violet is the colour of the crown chakra and has a short wavelength and fast frequency and is a connection to our intuition. 

These colours are not just cosmetic the vibrations and the colours also link with various aspects of soul, health, and wellness. The descriptions of the seven chakras are below for you to understand their purpose.

  • The Root Chakra, or red chakra, is connected to our sense of stability and security.
  • The Sacral Chakra, or orange chakra, is connected to self-confidence, intimacy, and sexual expression.
  • The Solar Plexus Chakra, or yellow chakra, is connected to willpower, responsibility, and identity.
  • The Heart Chakra, or green/pink chakra, is tied to all aspects of love-romantic love, family love, friendship love and self-love.
  • The Throat Chakra, or blue chakra, is tied to communication and confidence.
  • The Third Eye Chakra, or indigo chakra, is connected to intuition and understanding.
  • The Crown Chakra, or violet chakra, is connected to our vital spiritual fulfilment and enlightenment.

In addition to releasing energy, our chakras also take in negative or positive energy from around us, and It may even include the people in our surroundings. 

If you are wondering how to explain the chakras input functionality, you can ask people, have you ever glimpsed how an individual mood or emotional state can affect your own? Mainly the answer will be yes.

You can then explain that this may be related to the chakra vibrations you pick up from meeting a person for the first time, a feeling you get is either a good or bad vibe from meeting that person.


How do I know if my chakras are balanced?

Chakra Balancing means recharging a healthy, calm, and natural energy flow in the chakras. Daily, Chakras can become unbalanced in the sense your restless thoughts, feelings, and emotions can cause chakras to vibrate and overload, by which the energy force and internal flow of a Chakra become blocked and stressed.

Such Imbalances can happen if we hold on to feelings and thoughts that represent an unresolved connection with the chakra features and challenges when we judge, disregard or close down to the personal experience.
Balancing the energy means releasing the tension in the chakra and allowing the positive energy to flow freely through it again.

Chakra Balancing can either have a short or permanent effect on you. You can try many kinds of short meditations – and even simple actions of relaxation, including music – that can assist the chakras into balance, producing a state of calm, quietness and an uninterrupted flow of life energy.
Yet, to balance your Chakras, you will presumably need to go through some healing, but wearing Crystals with healing energy can also assist you. 

Chakra balancing requires recharging stability to the natural energy flowing throughout the body. Dealing, with daily stress, lack of sleep, grief, trauma, and physical injury can disturb this energy flow. When chakras are blocked it signifies the energy flowing through this chakra has reduced.

The easiest way to connect to the chakras is simply through physical feelings. For example, think of one event in your life, past, present, or future, which triggers certain emotions, and gradually reaches a point where you are experiencing a sufficient degree of this emotion. Then ask yourself, “Where exactly am I feeling this in the body?” You will quickly notice that you can trace this emotion to one of these seven chakra centres (this can appear in one of the first six). 

You often feel a kind of tension or contraction in one of your seven chakras; the energy flows slowly because of a past belief, thought, emotion, or feeling, causing one or more of your chakras to be moderately “blocked.” Even one negative thought you are unconscious of can influence and shape your whole experience of facts and thoughts.

Now that we have a clear feeling and an idea, how can we work with what we find in that chakra to balance the Chakras concerned? The balance needs to go along with the path chakras are structured, including healing treatments and wearing crystal jewellery can help.

Chakras have a funnel-like connection. They have two funnel-like openings from the back and the front (except for the first and seventh, which only have one). Though the back opening has splendid importance, on its own, it is less functional for physical health.

The five frontal openings, however, are what we should consider when it comes to Chakra Balancing. In general, whenever you are going to work on chakras, what you focus on is their frontal part. If this part is open and activated, your chakras are balanced. Healthy open chakras also rotate clockwise and anti-clockwise for closed blocked chakras.

The reason is that the front of each chakra energy is how you connect to the world personally and daily, including how you react to external motivations, sensory perception, and experience. These are received emotions by the frontal part of your chakras, which is why a great deal relies on their ability to respond to negative triggers in a positive way.

Of course, the frontal part is also where something gets affected and emotionally damaged. Chakras can become easily unbalanced with every hostile response to external triggers. Your expectations and fears, resistances and avoidances, tensions and hurtful emotions can close down the chakras. Positive thoughts and actions also lead to balanced Chakras.

If drawn to a particular crystal and its colour, your intuition is showing you the crystal that you need in your life, and this crystal will support your healing in some way too.
