Dive deep into the seven chakras to better understand your energy flow. Learn how each chakra influences your physical, emotional, and spiritual health.
In many ancient traditions, the human being is seen not only as a physical body but also as an energetic system. At the core of this system lie the chakras—seven major energy centers that regulate the flow of life-force (prana) through the body. When these centers are balanced, we experience harmony in mind, body, and spirit. When blocked, we may face emotional, mental, or physical struggles.
