Chakra and Energy Workshop ~ Part 1 of 4

Super Stretch Yoga

Body and Soul, we take responsibility for the energy we bring into a space. ~ Part 1 ~ Chakras are an inward map that helps us understand ourselves better and can direct us toward wholeness, greater awareness and living more fully. The seven principle master chakras, or energy wheels, used in Hatha yoga and many Tantric schools each have a purpose along the lifeline of the spine. Each one could be characterized as having its own personality and purpose. According to the current general Western perspective, the chakras each govern their own functional aspects of the physical body, emotional state and mental process. They are manifestation of consciousness in various planes of activity and offer understanding to the energetics and dynamics of human being. When energy becomes stuck within a chakra, it can manifest as mental, physical and emotional imbalances from physical symptoms within the nerves and body to emotional outbursts and feelings. The focus of chakra therapy then becomes an effort to balance and align the expression of all of the chakras with one another, so that none are either overactive or underactive. In this way, physical, emotional and mental balance and wholeness can be realized and maintained. We can transcend the ego, awaken to our true nature and discover freedom to live authentically. Someone once said to me that “In the midst of chaos. Peace is possible.” It is time to use yoga, breath work and mindfulness practices to BE your best self. Shift happens! You can start right now.
