Recharge Your Body & Your Life: using the chakras to repair, balance and energize your body
Introducing the Chakras
Your energy system is made up of various components that each have their own physiology and functions. The chakras are one part of this system. These are centers of energy that circulate into your physical body and also extend outward through your vibrational field. There are 7 main chakras that each charge an area of the body. When a chakra operates smoothly, its related physical functions work well. But if a chakra becomes distorted, compressed or misaligned due to various stresses, negative symptoms can develop in the body, emotions and thought patterns.
Exploring these Energy Centers
Whether you know a little or alot about chakras, let’s go over some basics of these energy centers which are a vital part of your evolving body. There are 7 main chakras that lie along the centerline of your body. There are also secondary chakras dispersed throughout the torso, legs, arms and head, which can be utilized in very creative ways as your system accelerates.
Each chakra contributes physical, emotional and psychological qualities to our personality and its expression. Here’s a chart with some typical chakra correspondences:
Keep in mind that these are general ideas that are meant to be an introduction to these multidimensional centers of energy. Their true nature can’t be defined in such linear terms. Also, the functions of the chakras continues to change as the forces acting upon your systems shift during development. Rather than try and memorize information that anyone else gives about chakras, I suggest learning about your own chakras firsthand through connecting with them through meditation and/or bodywork.
The main thing to remember is that when a chakra operates smoothly, the physical functions related to it work well. If it becomes over- or under-active, constricted or distended, misaligned or separated, negative conditions will arise.
Bringing the chakras from concept into experience
We can feel excitement and intellectual curiosity as we think about the chakras and form conceptual ideas about them. But it can be much more satisfying to actually interface directly with these very dynamic parts of your being. In order to make this connection, it's necessary to expand the frequencies of your body and sensitize yourself to more subtle, vibrational perceptions. You can then enter into your chakras directly and make adjustments that enrich your physical, emotional and mental health.
In order to do this, we can use a unique form of meditative activity called proprioceptive exercise. This involves specific types of movement and focus that stimulate your proprioceptive system, which is part of your nervous system that monitors alignment. These exercises are not what you might think of as typical workout exercises, although they do develop strength, flexibility and vitality. They are are keys that open vibrational doorways, allowing you to enter different dimensions of experience in a grounded and safe way. You will notice sensations that formerly did not register consciously. Your perception will shift to a cellular or microcosmic dimension where space and time have very different qualities. This process opens the door to connect to energetic components of your developing light body so that you can explore and work with them on purpose.
You can then focus on using this increased sensitivity to explore your chakras to find out how they have such a strong impact on how we feel and function. This gives you the opportunity to learn about and adjust your chakras in order to harmonize their related functions, emotions and mind sets. Not only is this is great for your health, it also benefits your family and the world around you as your vibration becomes more clear and vibrant. What a unique and effective way to naturally expand into the frequencies of appreciation, love and peace!
