The Body and its Chakras
Each center correlates to major nerve ganglia, branching forth from
the spiritual column. The chakra’s also correlate to the major
endocrine centers in the body, levels of consciousness,
developmental stages of life, colours, sounds, body functions and
elements. There are lots of minor chakra’s in other parts of the
body including the hands and the feet. A healer will always balance
a Chakra system in order to encourage the body's own healing.

Balanced Chakras
According to ancient
Eastern beliefs our body has 7 chakras, or "wheels of
energy" that spin and thus keeps the energy fields of our body
in a healthy balance. If one or more chakras is out of
balance, our whole body becomes out of balance.
It is important to keep all the chakras spinning and this is what a Chakra clearing can
help us with!
People that are highly sensitive are able to feel when
one or more chakras are out of balance. Once all of your
chakras have been "tuned" by a professional healer, and
they start "spinning" equally fast, it may be necessary
from time to time to have the chakras readjusted, since we are
all prone to picking up energy from our surroundings, which can
influence us in both positive and negative ways.
What happens during a Chakra clearing?
There are different ways of clearing
chakras. You can use a
pendulum to swing over the different
chakras to determine if there are any imbalances, or for those adapt at
Reiki they can use Reiki to balance them.
|
If there is an imbalance in the
Chakra the pendulum will rotate anticlock-wise, which then releases
negative energy. If the pendulum is able to transfer positive
energy it will swing clock-wise over the Chakra. |
|
Another method is using a
gong that is especially prepared for Chakra clearing. The gong sends
out finely tuned vibrations and then I actually don't know how
exactly it works, but it makes the Chakra vibrate with pure and
light and positive energy. You will possibly feel that the
negative energy is leaving you. |

communicating with the Chakra of your choice.

-
What do you feel?
Follow any impression. It might be a thought, an idea, a colour,
texture, picture, sound.

Now, place a crystal of your choice onto this Chakra - if you are inexperienced just
choose a crystal the same corresponding colour of the Chakra or a clear
quartz - and start breathing in the colour, it should feel quite
soft, gentle, beautiful, and you will feel the vibrations,
you may feel tingling or warmth or cold, or you may just feel
relaxed, whatever enjoy!
