Why you need to Align your Chakras NOW

If you’re feeling run down, lacking in energy, depressed or unhealthy, it’s possible that your chakras are out of alignment.

Maintaining a healthy body and mind that are perfectly in balance with one another is a difficult, near-impossible endeavor. This process, called homeostasis, can provide the means by which we achieve harmony between all the different chemicals, hormones, microorganisms and more. The further we move away from this harmonized state of being, the greater our chances of both physical and mental illness are.

Balancing your chakras provides an age-old mechanism with which you can return your body and consciousness back to homeostasis, and keep it that way.

What Are Chakra Centers
#geraldineorozco
Simply put, your chakras are the locations at which your spirit and physical body meet. Thought to have been officially standardized under eighth-century Buddhist Tantra teachings, ancient custom dictates that there are seven primary meeting points between the subtle (non-physical) energy channels of the body. These channels, known as “nadi,” are believed to be the channels in the subtle body through which your life force moves.

The word “chakra” is an ancient Sanskrit word meaning “wheel,” “circle” and “cycle.” This should help you to visualize how chakras are understood to operate. Your chakras are constantly moving bands of energy that circulate as your endocrine system.

like a moving wheel. There are many chakras understood to exist within the body, most practitioners focus on the seven “major” chakras I focus on the primary 13 to 24 in my sessions because they truly affect the multidimensional body and our ability to connect to our higher self.

Root chakra

Located at the base of the spine, this is otherwise known as Muladhara, the earth chakra. Your root chakra is red in color. It is associated with feelings of safety and security, home - Fear ( please refer to the chart above to see the balanced and unbalanced aspects of each center.)

Sacral chakra

Located below the belly button in the upper pelvic region, this chakra is known through ancient custom as Svadisthana. It’s orange in color. It is considered the water chakra, It is associated with pleasure, acceptance and creative energy.

Solar plexus chakra

Located at the point where your ribs meet your abdomen, just above the naval, this chakra is known as Manipura, the fire chakra. Manipura is believed to be responsible for your digestion and diaphragmatic functions. It is associated with feelings of control and self-worth and empowerment - Anger

Heart chakra

Located, funnily enough, at the center of your chest, this is known as Anahata, the air chakra. Anahata is green. It is associated with feelings of love and inner peace.

Throat chakra

Blue in color, this chakra is known as Visuddha, the ether chakra. Responsible for your taste, speech and eating abilities, Visuddha’s purpose is to enable both inward and outward communication.

Third eye chakra

Located between your eyes, this chakra, otherwise known as Ajna means - that of the light. Indigo in color, It enables physical sight and internal decision making.

Crown chakra

Located at the top of the head or just above it, Sahasrara is the violet chakra, representing cosmic energy. Your crown chakra is responsible for maintaining mental peace and connectedness.

These energy Discs are double sided there is a front and back side to them. This is why maintaining a very protected energy space can assist in blocking any attachments to you physical body. The universe is energy — it’s a scientific fact. Therefore, it stands to reason that our own bodies are governed by certain energy wavelengths. A convenient way to enable understanding of these energy bands is through the system of chakras.

Reasons to align your chakras

Whether you like it or not, your body and mind are heavily influenced by your own energy and the energy of others. Those energy fields, conveniently compartmentalized into distinct chakras, dictate whether you feel vibrant and full of life or lethargic and down in the dumps. Aligning your chakras so that they’re perfectly balanced and in tune with each other helps to you feel energized and whole once more.

Here’s a number of reasons why you need to align your chakras.

Misaligned chakras can cause physical problems
Often, if you’re suffering from certain ailments of the body but can’t for the life of you work out why, it may be due to an imbalance in your chakras. Here are some of the symptoms associated with chakras that are out of alignment:
Bladder and bowel issues
  • Breathing problems

  • Circulation issues

  • Dental issues

  • Digestive complications

  • Headaches

  • Immune disorders

  • Lower back pain

  • Low libido

  • Skin problems

  • Reproductive issues

  • Vision problems

Misaligned chakras can cause mental issues

Because the chakras process your life force, they can arguably play an even more influential role in dictating your emotions and mental health. If you’re suffering from any of the following issues, it could be due to a problem with one of many of your chakras:

  • Addictions

  • Anger issues

  • Abusiveness towards yourself or others

  • Boredom (with life, others or your job)

  • Close-heartedness

  • Depression

  • Eating disorders

  • Indecision

  • Insecure

  • Jealousy

  • Lack of creativity

  • Lack of motivation

  • Lack of willpower

  • Moodiness

  • Resentment

Aligning your chakras can help you achieve overall balance

Together, your chakras represent your entire self: physical, spiritual and emotional. For this reason, they provide the means by which you can achieve overall balance in your life — that evasive homeostasis I discussed earlier. By devoting just a few min to actively visualizing and supporting each of your chakras, you help to improve each area of yourself. By taking a few minutes every day to focus your awareness on each of the seven chakras, you will subtly but surely promote the attributes it represents.

Aligning your chakras can increase self-awareness

This sounds like an inconsequential benefit, but it’s a big deal! By developing an awareness of your chakras, you unlock the potential to become adept at self-diagnosing. Not in the sense that a doctor diagnoses you by asking what symptoms are (“cough now”) then prescribing some form of nasty medication, but in the sense that you can ascertain where you’re feeling weak or ill and focus your energy on that region to reattain homeostasis. Essentially, by looking for ebbs and flows in your chakras, you can pinpoint elusive problems in your health and resolve them… without knocking back vast quantities of drugs. ( try it first)

Aligning your chakras can help you to achieve well-being

Chances are, if you haven’t been living under a rock for the past couple of decades, you’ve heard of yoga. Yoga, as it happens, draws much of its mantra from the chakra system. In fact, many modern forms of meditation derive much of their essence from this understanding of energy flow between the major chakras. All acknowledge, in some way or form, that your consciousness is spread across all seven chakras, and that aligning them all brings a state of harmony and well-being. In this sense, aligning your chakras is like being in a state of meditation all the time, allowing you to achieve effortless balance , neutrality and calm.

How to align the chakras
There are plenty of ways in which you can go about achieving chakra Alignment —this method is an age-old way to align your chakras quickly and effectively
