Chakras are the subtle energy hubs of our body. The seven major chakras are:

SAHASRARA
AJNA
VISHUDDHi
ANAHATA
MANIPURAKA
SWADISHTHANA
MULADHARA

Though they have no physical location,
these energy centers are present along
the length of the body.

Chakras roughly correspond to, and influence the activity of, the important glands of the body. The chakras deeply impact our physical and mental health. Chakras are, in turn, affected by our thoughts and emotions. The chakras are direct channels to the boundless energy of the Cosmos.

WHAT ARE CHAKRAS?

Immoderate lifestyles, stress and negative emotions can ‘lock’ the chakras, or cause them to malfunction.

Without even being aware of it, we are continuously blocking off these important sources of energy.

Energy is health.

That’s why almost all physical and mental illness can be partly or wholly cured, simply by cleansing and energizing the corresponding chakra.
