Today, many people are realizing that there is more to them than just their physical bodies--that they are more than just machines made of flesh and bone. That "more" has been called many things--for example, chi, ki, life force, prana, subtle energy, or just "energy."

Whatever you call it, our subtle energy has a huge impact on our physical, mental, and emotional health--and anyone can learn to work with this subtle energy to support their wellness.

The subtle energy of our body has a structure, and chakras are a part of that structure. They play an important role in the health of your energy systems, including your physical body.

Read on to learn a way to clear and balance your chakras. Done regularly, it will help support wellness in all areas of your being.

What Are Chakras?
Chakras are energy centers in your "subtle anatomy." They are conceived of as whirling, wheel-like vortices through which universal or cosmic energy flows into and out of a person.

They are located along the central channel of the body, running up the center of the body/energy field from the base of the spine to the top of the head.

There are seven major chakras, as well as many minor ones. Each major chakra corresponds to specific glands, organs, and facets of your being.

When the flow of the energy into or out of a chakra is disturbed--for example, when the flow of energy is blocked or unbalanced--problems can result in a person’s physical health, emotions, mind, or life.

Many forms of energy healing include chakra healing. You can work with your own chakras to clear, balance, and energize them. A chakra meditation such as the one below can be particularly useful for the home practitioner.

Chakra Wellness Meditation
Sit comfortably, upright, feet on the floor, arms and hands relaxed.

Take a few minutes to breathe deeply and slowly--all the way into the lower third of your lungs, so that your belly rises as you inhale and falls as you exhale. Allow your breathing to become slower and more regular.

* Direct your awareness to your 1st or root, chakra, located at the base of your spine. Visualize a wheel, spinning clockwise. In your mind's eye, see it as a pure red color. Breathe in red, breathe out red. Stay focused on the 1st chakra for a minute or so.

* Direct your attention to your 2nd, or sacral, chakra, positioned in the middle of your lower abdomen, between your naval and pubic bone. Visualize it as a wheel of a pure, clean orange color, spinning clockwise. Breathe in orange, breathe out orange. Stay focused on the 2nd chakra for a minute or so.

* Direct your attention to your 3rd, or solar plexus, chakra. It is located in the middle of your upper abdomen, between your naval and sternum. See it as a wheel of a pure, clean yellow color, spinning clockwise. Breathe in yellow, breathe out yellow. Stay focused on the 3rd chakra for a minute or so.

* Direct your awareness to your 4th, or heart, chakra, found in the center of your body at the heart level. Visualize it as a wheel of a pure, clean green color, spinning clockwise. Breathe in green, breathe out green. Stay focused on the 4th chakra for a minute or so.

* Direct your attention to your 5th, or throat, chakra, positioned at the base of your throat. Visualize it as a wheel of a pure, clean sky-blue color, spinning clockwise. Breathe in blue, breathe out blue. Stay focused on the 5th chakra for a minute or so.

* Direct your attention to your 6th, or brow, chakra--also called the Third Eye. It is found at the center of your forehead, between and slightly above your eyebrows. See it as a wheel of a pure, clean indigo color, spinning clockwise. Breathe in indigo, breathe out indigo. Stay focused on the 6th chakra for a minute or so.

* Finally, direct your awareness to your 7th, or crown, chakra, located at the top of your head. Visualize it as a wheel of pure, clean violet (or white) color, spinning clockwise. Breathe in violet (or white), breathe out violet (or white). Stay focused on the 7th chakra for a minute or so.

Now relax and observe how you feel. Take a few moments, continuing to breathe in a slow, deep, relaxed way, just staying present to your body.

When you feel ready to end your meditation, open your eyes and slowly return your awareness to the present time and place.

You can do this meditation daily if you wish.

Here's to the perfect, radiant health which is always yours.
