What are Chakras? What to do to Balance them?

The seven chakras are energy centers in our bodies that energy flows through. When energy is blocked in any of these seven areas, it can lead to emotional or physical illness. It’s important to know where your chakras are located, what they represent and how you can keep the energy flowing through them. There are all types of modalities one can do on ones’ self to balance these 7 centers. One center may be off, while the other six are working. For example you have: stomach issues; which would be the solar plexus chakra. This is indeed a chakra that needs attention. Laying on of hands, gem stones, pendulum healing and visualization can solve the problem and the fabulous part is you can do it on your own. Although remember, this is not a one time deal, the chakras should be balanced at least once a week. I know through my experience and experimentation in my life/work, once I started doing this, daily issues subsided. Any questions let me know!
