Chakra Integration: Body
Integrating chakra work, which is really energy work, into your everyday life is simple.
There are eight major chakras that form the basis of the human energy system. Seven of them sit as 3D spheres in front of the spine and trace the colors of the rainbow from Red to Violet. The 8th chakra is Rose and is located in front of the thymus gland outside the body.
Below is the chart/cheat sheet I created as a reminder of how to work with each chakra. Its components are listed below.
If you’ve followed my work in these pages, you know that the most important point about the chakra system is that it’s a system. The eight major chakras are all meant to speak to one another in a never-ending infinity of energetic exchange.
The first step is to get familiar with where in the body your chakras live. The reason is because in order to work consciously with your own energy system, you need to be aware of the sensation each chakra creates in your physical body. Well, no, first in your energetic body, and then, in your physical body.
Then learn the verticals till you can recite them, and sense them in your own energy.
For body: Root, Sacral, Solar, Heart, Throat, Brow, Crown, Thymus.
Stay with these eight words until you can name them effortlessly, get in touch with the physical sensation, and visualize each color.
Now I know that sounds like yet another thing to add to your already-too-long to-do list. It isn’t. Write the words on an index card, then recite them in line at the grocery store, at a traffic light, while stirring red sauce for pasta.
You’re not looking for chakra work to take over your life. You’re looking for it to undergird your life, like a program that’s always running in the background. Which is exactly what it’s already doing.
Working at the level of energy is so much more efficient than working from outside in. When you source the energetic cause behind whatever is showing up in your life, and change that, the outer form will change. No exceptions.
Once again, as part of my one-woman campaign to spread this vital information about the human energy system, I created a Compendium of information on the chakra system. You will never find it in a bookstore or online, but you can, for a donation, request a copy here.
Say it with me one more time: Root, Sacral, Solar, Heart, Throat, Brow, Crown, Thymus.
Blessèd week.
