✨ The Chakras and Energy Healing ✨

Reconnecting mind, body and spirit

Everything in the universe — including our own bodies — is made of energy. When this energy is flowing freely, we feel balanced, healthy and in tune with life. But when it becomes blocked or depleted, we can experience physical tension, emotional fatigue or a sense of being “stuck.”

🌈 What Are Chakras?

The word chakra comes from Sanskrit meaning “wheel” or “disc.” It refers to spinning centres of energy within the body that connect our physical, emotional and spiritual selves. Each chakra vibrates at its own frequency and governs certain organs, glands and emotional patterns.

There are seven main chakras, aligned along the spine from base to crown:

  1. Root Chakra (Muladhara) – Base of spine
    Represents: safety, stability, grounding
    When balanced: you feel secure and supported
    When blocked: anxiety, fear, lack of focus

  2. Sacral Chakra (Svadhisthana) – Lower abdomen
    Represents: creativity, sensuality, joy
    When balanced: healthy emotions and relationships
    When blocked: guilt, emotional numbness, low energy

  3. Solar Plexus Chakra (Manipura) – Upper abdomen
    Represents: confidence, personal power, motivation
    When balanced: strong will, self-esteem, clarity
    When blocked: low confidence, frustration, indecision

  4. Heart Chakra (Anahata) – Centre of chest
    Represents: love, compassion, forgiveness
    When balanced: open, connected, peaceful
    When blocked: resentment, loneliness, grief

  5. Throat Chakra (Vishuddha) – Throat
    Represents: truth, communication, self-expression
    When balanced: clear voice and authenticity
    When blocked: fear of speaking, tension in neck or jaw

  6. Third Eye Chakra (Ajna) – Forehead, between eyebrows
    Represents: intuition, perception, inner wisdom
    When balanced: clear thinking and insight
    When blocked: confusion, overthinking, headaches

  7. Crown Chakra (Sahasrara) – Top of head
    Represents: spiritual connection, higher consciousness
    When balanced: sense of unity and purpose
    When blocked: disconnection, cynicism, apathy

💫 How Energy Healing Helps

Energy healing, including Reiki, works by gently clearing and re-balancing these chakras, restoring the natural flow of energy throughout your system.
During a session, you may experience deep relaxation, warmth, tingling or waves of calm — all signs that your body is returning to balance.

Benefits can include:

  • Reduced stress and anxiety

  • Improved sleep and emotional clarity

  • Enhanced focus and confidence

  • A greater sense of peace and alignment

🌿 Integrating Healing Into Daily Life

Even outside of a session, you can support your chakra balance by:

  • Spending time in nature (especially for Root chakra grounding)

  • Creative expression and movement

  • Practising gratitude and heart-centred breathing

  • Mindful pauses and meditation
