Chakra’s Are Energy Centers In The Human Body
Chakra is a Sanskrit word and it means “Wheel” or “Vortex” because that is what it looks like when we look at it. Chakras Are Energy Centers In The Human Body. Each Chakra is like a solid ball of energy interpenetrating the physical body, in the same way that a magnetic field can interpenetrate the physical body.
The Chakras are not physical, they are the aspects of consciousness in the same way that the Auras are aspects of consciousness. The Chakras are more dense than the Auras but not as dense as the physical body.
Chakras interact with the physical body through two major vehicles, the endocrine system and the nervous system. Each of the seven main Chakras discussed here are associated with one of the seven endocrine glands and also with a particular group of nerves called a Plexus.
Thus, each of these Chakra’s can be associated with particular parts of the body and particular functions within the body controlled by that Plexus or that endocrine gland associated with that Chakra.
Each of the Chakra’s or Energy Centres has Governance over particular areas of your body. One of the strongest associations to affect your health and well-being is that formed with your Endocrine system.
The endocrine system is part of the body’s main control mechanism. It comprises of a number of ductless glands that produce the hormones, acting as chemical messengers, that are secreted into the bloodstream from particular organs to stimulate or inhibit physical processes. By adjusting the hormone levels, the endocrine system works to maintain the body in a state of optimum health.
The Chakra’s are linked with the glands responsible for creating the hormones. Unsurprisingly, the positions of the Chakra’s, correspond to the positions of the glands in the endocrine system and have an effect on their functioning.
The link between the Chakra’s and the glands emphasis’s the holistic nature of health and demonstrates that you need to maintain a balance in your emotional and mental activities as well as your physical diet and exercise, as they are all deeply interrelated.
The Chakras located on the lower part of our body are our instinctual side, the highest ones our mental side. The Chakras can have various levels of activity. When they are open they are considered operative in a normal fashion.
Ideally, all Chakras would contribute to our being. Our instincts would work together with our feelings and thinking. However, this usually is not the case. Some Chakras are not open enough (being under-active) and to compensate, other chakras are over-active. The ideal state is where the Chakras are balanced.
It makes no sense to try to make over-active Chakras less active, as they are compensating for other Chakras which are under-active. To restore the compensation they would be over-active again in no time.
To stop them from compensating, the Chakras they are compensating for must be opened. Then all Chakras will be in balance.
