The chakra system is my favourite topic, as such, I have based my whole Etsy shop around chakra-themed jewelry. I believe the chakra system should be taught alongside anatomy in elementary schools. I know schools are already teaching children how to do simple yoga poses and calming techniques. But I would like to see them go one step further and teach them about their seven major chakras, how to check and balances them, and what it feels like when they are out of whack.
Below is a simplistic breakdown of the seven major chakra centres starting from the bottom:
- Root – survival, physical needs, family, Adrenals, fight/flight responds, skeletal system.
- Sacral – sexuality, creativity, pleasure, Sex Organs, sexual function, elimination, water regulation.
- Solar Plexus – personal power, self respect, Pancreases, digestion, assimilation muscles.
- Heart – giving and receiving love, joy, compassion, forgiveness, gratitude, Thymus, electromagnetic field generator, blood pressure, immunity.
- Throat – communication, truth, honest, Thyroid, metabolism, calcium regulation.
- Third Eye – intuition, wisdom, focus, determination, creative intelligence, Pituitary, hormonal/physiological regulation.
- Crown – spirituality, relationship with GOD/All There Is, universal source, Pineal, circadian rhythms.
Chakras are energetic centres inside our physical body. It is the system in which the energy flows around the body and moves through the centres from the top and the bottom to meet in the middle (the heart). Chakra centres have corresponding emotions, colours, sound frequencies, zodiac signs, body parts, hormone glands, etc. They are affected by internal and external energies whether we are consciously aware of them.
Feminine/Masculine
There are three feminine chakras: sacral, heart, and third eye and three masculine chakras: root, solar plexus, and throat. Our chakra system comes in four parts: the Spiritual, Mental, Emotional, and Physical bodies. These bodies are layers in the human experience. Finding peace and balance between all four bodies equals perfect physical and mental health. Something we all strive to achieve, but are hard to sustain. That is the spice of life, finding balance inside and out.
