Chakras; and how to cleanse them

Wed, 02/17/2010

Ayurveda recognizes that within every living body there are a series of whirling energy fields or centres of consciousness called chakras (Sanskrit for wheel or disk).

The chakras are states of the soul – energy locations that can be blocked and healed. There are hundreds of chakras throughout the body, but the major 7 are located along the spinal column of the body - starting at the perineum and going up to the top of the head at the crown.

Each chakra is represented by a different color of the rainbow - starting with red at the bottom up to violet on the crown and represents different emotions and feelings. Consciousness and energy move from one frequency to another through the chakras in a spiralling fashion. Ideally all the chakras should be balanced – open and spinning at a similar rate to each other. Most of us however have some chakras that are overactive and others that are closed down or under active. To heal is to bring the chakras into alignment and balance.
 

Cleansing Your Chakras

Understanding and being in tune with our chakras allows us to awaken to our own personal power while balancing our physical, emotional and spiritual well being.

There are many methods for cleaning our chakras and they can be done any time, anywhere and as often. You can use meditation, yoga, visual exercises and crystals, just to name a few. In any practice, it is always helpful to visualize the color of each chakra and make silent affirmations.
 

Meditation

Since thought is an energy form you can stimulate your chakra centers through meditation. Omved Chakra Pillar Candles are an effective way to practice slowing the physical vibration and frequency deep within your body and to bring awareness and positive energy to the opening and alignment of your chakras.
 

Aromatherapy

Essential oils are the pure essences of plants or flowers containing their healing properties. Certain essences have vibrations that correlate to specific chakras. Omved Chakra Balancing Roll-ons are formulated according to authentic Ayurvedic chakra balancing traditions. Blended with 100% pure therapeutic quality oils and special carrier oils, they inspire healing, balance and well being.
 

Breathing

Burn Omved Chakra Insence to find that peaceful place within, bringing awareness to your chakras. The chakra stimulating fragrance will unblock and heal the imbalanced chakra while providing you with an aromatic journey for mind and body. Chanting the relevant chakra mantra aloud will add additional power from the chakra's vibration.
