What Are Chakras & Why You Should Have A Chakra Healing Therapy Session?

Updated: Jul 17, 2023

For a Balanced and Fulfilling Life



What are Chakras?

The word chakra means "wheel" or "disk" or "wheel of light" in Sanskrit Of course, no actual wheels are used to deal with a person's chakras. The "wheel" or "disk" symbolises moving living energy within you (Our life force energy - that allows us to live and to live well). Current research shows that our physical body and our aura ( our energy field around us) conducts electromagnetic energy constantly. And it is believed that you can manipulate the flow of energy to encourage healing and general wellbeing. As well as helping with reducing anxiety, worry and overcoming traumatic experiences or events.

It is known that we each have 112 chakras within the human body and 2 outside of the body. There are seven primary main chakras and 21 lesser Chakras distributed within and around the body.


The chakras are an energy system, a map, intersections connecting to your body, mind, emotions, spirt and soul and to all the major nerve points that meet and where life force or "prana" flows harmoniously.


Chakras are also sometimes referred to as energy centers or vortices.


Each chakra is thought to resemble a colored wheel that spins in a clockwise direction, and the chakras are thought to each spin at a different rate or frequency.


Chakras are invisible to the naked eye and interconnect to our physical and spiritual selves. Each of the seven chakras is tied directly to a specific region, organ and nerve point at centre of the body. The other minor chakras are related to other areas of the body such as the hands, legs, knees, tongue, ears, elbows, shoulders, eyes and nose.


It is believed that each of the chakras absorbs and filters the energy that we emit through our thoughts we have and the actions that we take and do, as well as through the thoughts and actions of all those that we come into contact with on a day to day basis. The chakras collect, store, filter and prioritises the incoming information and energy that is received every minute of every day.


That is why your energy is constantly changing due to what we think, feel and behave and how we interact with others on a minute by minute basis.

When one of the chakras are out of balance as a result of negative energy flowing through it, it begins to spin too slowly or too fast. When a chakra is not balanced or in harmony, it can effect that physical region of the body and organ as well also effecting very specific aspects of our spiritual and emotional selves.

Our health and the fully functioning balance of our Chakras are vital for our own health and well being, be it physical, emotional and mental. As well as our healthy interactions with loved ones around us, we each effect one another.


Without our Chakra's and their balance we wouldn't be here. Life force energy is what keeps us alive and functioning. So it's vital to check in with our energy centres and create harmony and balance between them.



What Are The Seven Main Chakra's?:




As I mentioned above there are seven primary main chakras that run along the your spinal column from your tail bone to the top of your head. You have many more all around your body from your hands and feet.

Why Chakra Balancing is Important?


The chakras impact all areas of your life. Chakras are transmitters and receptors and emit energy frequencies that will match the frequency of what you receive in life. This includes what you get from others that you meet on a day to day basis.

When your chakras are balanced, they are operating at a higher frequency and will attract abundance, good and healthy people, and experiences and opportunities that you have labeled as high frequency.

If they are unbalanced it can show up as physical, emotional, or spiritual symptoms and issues that can also effect you and your circumstances outside of yourself. Such as negative patterns, recurring issues in your life, or ailments.

Heal your hurt through chakra balancing healing and transform your life with the healing power of energy.

Anything that takes us away from the natural flow of life, joy and happiness of life, fulfilment and the life that we desire to have, is a chakra blockage.

Fine tuning your chakras can help to strengthen your physical body, nourish creativity, fire-up motivation, nurture your heart, inspire self-expression, clarify your intuition and help you to shine.

When our energy is flowing, we feel rooted, connected and joyful.

"If your life feels out of whack, so will your chakras".


What to Expect From a Chakra Therapy Session:


Every session includes an energy assessment by identifying and locating the energy blockages in your Chakras by discussing your current mental and physical state. Once the root cause and location of the blockage is determined,

This therapy is done with you laying down and fully clothed. Just lay-back, relax and to have an open mind and open heart to the healing benefits from the power of the energy therapy.

Using the healing power of Crystals, Gem stones, aura colours, and pure aroma oils as a healing medium to create peace and calm in your energy body and to help each of your energy centres which are your Chakras to function at their optimum best and allows your body to naturally heal and repair what you are experiencing or in need of.

The healer does not heal you. The healer only triggers the natural healing process of the body and your energetic field. So it's actually self-healing that you will be experiencing.

It's more up to you than the healer in terms of results that you are seeking from the session/s. If you don't want to heal, you won't. Such as an emotional issue, you won't let go of a grudge, the emotional pain will stay, unless you are willing to let it go yourself. The healer isn't able to let it go for you.

Thats why its really important to be fully open to the healing and fully allowing to let go of whatever comes up and what wants to be released.

Healing is also a process of transformation that requires an acceptance for change.

"When your energy centres (Chakras) are balanced your outer world and experiences will be in balance also. What's going on inside of you, is reflecting outwards and attracting all your experiences and outcomes in your life. Bring harmony and balance to your energy centre's and your whole life will change, not only your energy and your health and well-being, but everything outside of you also"
