What are chakras?

Sanskrit | the ancient Vedic Language used in India.
The Vedas | the ancient religious text that originated in India.
“Chakra” | “spinning wheel ” in Sanskrit.
Esoteric Body | The Aura, Lowest layer in the human energy field
Subtle Body (Non-Physical Body) | is the energy
Physical Body | is the mass
Chakras are apart of an esoteric belief system that emerged from Indian traditions.
Chakras were first mentioned in the Verdic scriptures thousands of years ago.
The esoteric belief system is that, humans have two dimensions. The two dimensions are the “physical body” and the “non-physical body”.
The “non-physical body” is called the “subtle body”.
The “subtle body” is the energy while the “physical body” is the mass.
The “subtle body” consists of energy channels connected by nodes of psychic energy called chakras.
So if you can understand that the mind/psyche connects and interacts with the body, you can understand that the mind and body affect each other.
Since everything has energy, everything and anything can influence our energy positively or negatively.

What is the sacral chakra? The sacral chakra is the second chakra and it located just below the navel and above the pubic bone. Sacral relates to the anatomical area by the sacrum.
This chakra is home to our passions, emotions and pleasures. It is linked to our creative and sexual energy.
If this chakra is unbalanced you might struggle with creative task and it might be hard for you to create intimate bonds with others. An unhealthy controlling relationship will definitely push this chakra out of alignment.
Since this chakra governs our sexual organs, if unbalanced you can run into intimacy and fertility issues. If this chakra is balanced you can build deep relationships with others and walk thru life enthusiastically.

Sacrum – Latin Sacred or Holy
When balancing and aligning ANY chakra, you may go thru physically and emotional purification. Since the sacral chakra is linked to our sexual organs and our sexual organs produce hormones, you might find yourself with surges of emotional energy. Temporary pelvic and lower back pain might surface as well. Be patient and kind to yourself while balancing and aligning this chakra. Once this chakra is balanced you might find yourself taking more pleasures in everyday task.

WHAT IS KUNDALINI?
In ancient yoga traditions it is believed that Kundalini is a form of stored energy which rests at the base of our spine, in the Muladhara or Root Chakra. It is often symbolized as a coiled serpent sleeping in the Muladhara area.
Human beings generally only tap into a tiny fraction of the potential energy that resides in our body. The remaining energy, or Kundalini, remains in a state of potentiality or a seed state.
Kundalini meditation and yoga practices are geared towards awakening the Kundalini, to increase the flow of Pranic energy around the Nadis to achieve true enlightenment. This is often achieved through a range of physical movements and deep breathing.
