THE CHAKRAS
According to Tantric tradition, everyone has seven energy centers that serve as junction points between the body and consciousness or between matter and the mind. These spinning vortices, called chakras in Sanskrit, receive, assimilate and express our vital life energy. When the flow of energy in one or more of the chakras becomes blocked, we may develop physical and mental illnesses. The ancient seers perceived the chakra system as a column of energy centers that extends from the base of the spine to the top of the head. The location of each chakra loosely corresponds to an area of the body’s anatomy and is associated with a specific color. The following description provides more detail about the seven chakras and their Sanskrit names:
Root | Muladhara, Sacral | Svadhisthana, Solar Plexus | Manipura, Heart | Anahata, Throat | Vishuddha, Third Eye | Ajna, Crown | Sahaswara
MalaforVets designs mala beads for every Chakra. You can also contact Chris and have a custom Chakra mala made.
