CHAKRAS

Nowadays we see that more and more people are trying to find balance and inner peace, and often the subject of "The chakras" appears, we always hear that we must keep them balanced or open ... but what exactly are the chakras? Here I can give you a brief and consistent explanation of what exactly they are:

The chakras are vortexes of energy located in the astral body along the spine, starting at the base of the spine and running upward to the crown. The Chakras coincide with a gland in the physical body and each one radiates a specific color and energy.

Since each chakra is related to specific spiritual, emotional, psychological and physical aspects of our being, it is said that blockage or malfunction of the chakras can lead to physical, psychological and emotional disorders. On the other hand, conscious awareness and balance of these energy centers are believed to lead to well-being and good health.

The predominant chakras in the body are 7:

It influences our basic instincts and our ability to provide the basic needs that we have in our life. It keeps us in contact with the earth and gives us a feeling of stability and self-esteem.
