We have seven major chakra’s ( energy centres). 6 within our body and the seventh just above the crown of our head.
The word Chakra comes from the Sanskrit word for wheel. A Chakra is an energy point that receives, transforms and transfers energy.
The seven major Chakra’s are represented on the picture below. they are found on a line that runs down the centre of the body. To expel negative energies from you body and ensure your Chakra’s are topped up and balanced.
During meditation expand the aura as much as possible, hold for a short period of time and visualise all of the negative energy leaving your body, leaving your chakra’s cleansed and balanced.
