Chakra Balancing For Proper Health
The modern world has brought many amazing technological advances; but at the same time, it has led to a loss of awareness on the part of many people of the importance, even the existence of their spiritual welfare.
We can learn a lot from Hindu philosophy, which has kept this knowledge of the vital role played by our spiritual beings to our overall health alive in a changing world.
Our body contains 7 vital energy centers and many secondary ones. These energy centers are known as Chakras and their proper function is essential to our physical, mental and spiritual health.
When our Chakras are out of balance, it has a negative impact on our health. This makes Chakra balancing a vital element of maintaining proper health.
You can think of your Chakras as the gates which regulate the flow of energy in and out of the body. These centers are located along the spine ? from the base to the top of your head, the seven primary Chakras take in and emit energy form the world around us.
When your Chakras are blocked, the flow of this energy is disturbed and this can have a serious effect on your health; even physical health.
Chakric function can be disturbed by poor physical health and diet, stress, bottled up emotions and a number of other factors; thankfully, all of these can be corrected.
People who have been aware of the Chakras have always sought to keep them properly balanced in order to achieve peak physical, mental and spiritual health. Self-healing is something you may have heard about before ? this is a methodology based on the idea of Chakra balancing.
Our Chakras are responsible for many aspects of our health ? the workings of our endocrine system, the diseases which may affect is and our thought processes. Chakra balancing can make sure that all of the systems of our physical body are working properly and that our mental health is in proper balance.
Chakra Balancing offers many benefits:
* Inner peace and a sense of well-being

Our body has its own natural reservoir of energy, this energy is used by the body and released, to be replenished by universal energy drawn in by our Chakras.
Chakra balancing aims to ensure the efficient processing and use of this energy by the body, mind and spirit.
When your Chakras are returned to a balanced state, inner peace and well being result. Chakra Balancing brings the Chakras back to a healthy and balanced state.

What is Energy Healing?
You have probably come across exotic-sounding terms such as chakra and aura in your of reading books on spirituality, sex, and healing in the New Age literature section of the bookstore. But what’s the real scoop behind these exotic vocabularies?
Aura is a non-physical body that consists of energy, which exists along with our physical body. The aura that covers our body is said to have seven layers pertaining to the physical,emotional, mental, and spiritual aspects of an individual as manifested by energy. Studying the color and thickness of auras give ideas on the state of health of individuals. Six colors are associated with aura and interpreted into six personalities. These colors are all present in an individual but one or two are more pronounced.
Green – ambitious achiever
Blue – spiritual peacemaker
White – unconventional chameleon
Red – activist
Orange – creative communicator
Violet – psychic
Although Tantra is popularly associated with the peculiar practice of sex and spirituality, it is another method of energy healing. As a method of healing, spirituality and sex figure prominently. It is presupposed that the union of man and woman can reach spiritual levels during orgasm, which removes the body and mind off collected impurities. These impurities being negative energies can in turn manifest as physical illnesses.
Reiki stands for universal energy, an energy brought forth by higher intelligence. Students of Reiki are taught how to tap this energy to heal physical, emotional, and mental illnesses.
The concepts of the connectedness of mind, body, and spirit; the connection of individuals to all living and nonliving things around them and to the universe; and how energy impacts physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being are some of the salient similarities of these three healing methods.
Energy healing worked where modern medicine failed.
For several reasons both explainable and unexplainable, modern medical treatment failed to heal ailments and conditions in several if not many persons. Research or data may not be able to support this statement. But for the families of the dying as well as for the dying patient, they would take the risk of using alternative methods ranging from herbals and organics, faith healers, witch doctors, and New Age healing techniques just to be get well.
People perceive modern medicine to be isolating.
Medical treatments are oftentimes focused on the disease and its causative agent, which can make a patient feel isolated and treated like a mere host of the disease. Although recent developments in hospital practice are gradually promoting the holistic treatment of a patient, the perception still persists. Unlike in energy healing, since energy and spirituality are intimately linked, the patient feels that all aspects of his health are being attended to.
Energy healing is non-obtrusive and natural thus it is safer.
Repeated surgical procedures are physically and emotionally traumatic for most patients. It is but a logical and attractive option to both patient and families to look for less stressful health interventions. Moreover, with the rising popularity of New Age religions, going natural is the way to go.
Energy healing is a good way of relieving stress.
Meditation is part and parcel of energy healing methods and this is an added come-on for highly stressed people. Moreover, sophisticated equipment is not required thus it becomes all the more convenient for students and future students of energy healing.
The battle between alternative healing and mainstream medicine continues as both present the benefits of their approach. But in the final analysis, what matters is the restoration of good health.

Basic Concepts of Energy Healing
Let’s introduce some basic concepts of energy healing such as the aura, the chakras, illnesses from a holistic point of view and how energy healing works and can help you.
The aura consists of seven bodies, each of them centered on the physical body, and having its own unique frequency. They are interrelated and affect one another and therefore the person’s feelings, emotions, thoughts, behaviors, and health. A state of imbalance in one of the bodies leads to a state of imbalance in the others. The different bodies are: the etheric body, the emotional body, the mental body and a group of higher bodies usually referred to as the spiritual body.
The chakras are “Spinning Wheels of Light” (the translation of the Sanskrit word ‘chakra’). Each of these major chakras is connected to a specific energy body and to energy channels in the physical body. They are centers of activity that receive, assimilate and express life force energy. Their main function is to transform and circulate life energy to nourish the cells of the physical body as well as the light bodies. They are therefore responsible for the person’s physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual functions. They absorb and transmit energies to and from the universe, nature, celestial entities, from people, and even from things.
When one (or more) of the chakras is blocked and the energy does not flow harmoniously through them, it will result in imbalance that can be manifested in any or all areas of life, and on all levels (physical, emotional, mental, spiritual).Over time the blockages in the meridians and other natural energy channels can lead to local physical conditions or general illnesses as the body cells and organs don’t receive enough life force.
Childhood traumas, cultural conditioning, limited belief system, bad habits, physical and emotional injuries, even just lack of attention, all contribute to chakra blockage. Difficulties abound in life, for each one, we develop a coping strategy. If these difficulties persist, these coping strategies become chronic patterns, anchored in the subconscious as defense structures. It is important to recognize the blocks we carry, find and understand their source and meaning, and develop tools to heal them.
Energy healing is a SAFE, non-invasive channeling of natural energy to assist the self healing of a person at the physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual levels. It is not aligned to any religion and is directed by spiritual guidance and most importantly, ultimately controlled by the subconscious of the person receiving the treatment. It can be used as complementary therapy: It complements and enhances the health care the patient receives in the hospital or from other health care providers.
The power of energy healing comes from the early identification of disruptions and disturbances at the level of energy BEFORE they can manifest in diseases and disorders. Energy healing also helps by boosting your energy field with the universal energy and by dissolving blockages and balancing chakras. This restores a better flow of energy, which enables self-healing and brings balance into your body, mind, and emotions. It is not the practitioner’s energy which does this: it is universal energy channeled and sent to your being by the practitioner. And it is your willingness to receive and integrate universal energy to create the healing that restores health and prevents illness.
When you want to be healed, you need to open yourself up to healing energy, and be ready to face your issues, only then will you be healed. Energy healing works best when you are an active partner in your healing process.
Energy can be sent anywhere and a practitioner doesn’t need to be in the same room as the patient to perform the healing. Distant healing treatments are being increasingly popular for they bring as many benefits as hands on treatments with the convenience of receiving the healing energies when and where you want.
