The concept of chakras originated in ancient India, describing spinning wheels of energy within the body. Traditionally, there are seven primary chakras, each associated with different organs, emotions, and aspects of our spiritual selves. From the root chakra at the base of the spine that governs our sense of security and grounding to the crown chakra at the top of the head that connects us to the divine, each chakra plays a vital role in our overall well-being.
When our chakras are balanced, energy flows freely, facilitating a sense of harmony and wellness in our physical, emotional, and spiritual selves. However, stress, illness, or negative thoughts and experiences can block our chakras, leading to imbalance and a feeling of dis-ease.
