Chakras

What do people mean, when they refer to their Chakras??

The seven main chakras are swirling wheels of energy that align up the spine from the base to the top of the head.

Each chakra has a color or vibration and a set of characteristics unique to itself. As we live our lives, we have all experienced traumatic and painful experiences that result in trapped energy in our chakra (and meridian) system. Energy work or energy medicine is the work of moving stuck energy out of our energy system in order to attain optimum health and well-being.
