What Are the Chakras?

Chakras, often perceived by clairvoyant psychics, are spinning wheels of energy that influence our body, mind, and spirit. As a clairvoyant and energy healer, I experience these chakras as vibrant, colorful wheels or flowers, each with a unique energy hub at its center. The seven primary chakras align along the spine, from the base to the crown of the head. While anchored along the spinal column, they affect both the front and back of the body, constantly working to maintain harmony and balance.

Each chakra vibrates at its own speed. The Root Chakra (1st) has the slowest rotation, while the Crown Chakra (7th) spins the fastest. These energy centers are deeply connected to colors, which vary in frequency and wavelength. Higher chakras resonate with bright, translucent hues, while lower chakras are associated with deeper shades like gray, brown, red, and black. The size and activity of these wheels change depending on your personal growth, physical health, energy levels, and lifestyle.

The Importance of Balanced Chakras:

The state of your chakras deeply impacts your physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual well-being. When these energy centers are out of balance or blocked, the flow of life force energy slows, leaving you feeling tired, unmotivated, sad, or disconnected. If this imbalance persists over time, it can result in physical or mental illnesses, requiring attention.

Often, when faced with difficult life experiences, we instinctively close off and block our emotions, disrupting the natural energy flow within. This can affect the healthy development of our chakras, causing them to become disfigured, discolored, or drained of energy. Conversely, if chakras are overly open, too much energy can flow through, creating an imbalance that may lead to burnout or overstimulation.

When Chakras Are Balanced:

In an ideal state, each chakra spins clockwise, drawing in the energy it needs to nourish the body, mind, and spirit. When chakras are balanced and healthy, we experience vitality, emotional stability, and a clear sense of purpose. Life becomes more joyful, harmonious, and fulfilling.

Healing and Balancing Techniques:

When I work with clients to heal and align their chakras, I use crystals, gemstones, and other energy healing techniques that I’ve learned through my practice. Crystals are particularly powerful healing tools because of their “piezoelectric effect.” This means that crystals respond to the natural electricity flowing through our bodies, and if your energy is sluggish, the constant vibration of these stones helps harmonize and stimulate the flow. Each crystal corresponds to specific chakras, enhancing the energy balance and flow.

Chakras and Energy Flow:

Think of the chakras as intersections in a busy city. When energy flows freely through these intersections, traffic (energy) moves smoothly. However, when one intersection is blocked, traffic jams occur both upstream and downstream, leading to congestion and disorder. Similarly, when one or more chakras are blocked, it affects the entire energy system, resulting in stagnation and imbalance. This can manifest as poor health, emotional unrest, and a sense of feeling stuck in life.

Chakra blockages can stem from one major chakra being out of alignment, creating a domino effect on the others. Identifying which chakras are blocked and bringing them back into balance can restore vitality and flow to your life.

If you feel that balancing your chakras could benefit your overall well-being, I invite you to book a session. During the session, we will explore which chakras may be blocked, and I will guide you through the healing process with personalized techniques, including crystal healing and energy work.
