Chakras are energy centers in our body, which allows flow through our life energy. Because it is a kind of vortices of flowing energy they are compared to wheels, usually symbolically represented as Lotus flowers. The most famous chakra system consists of seven chakras, each with its own color, as the seven colors of the rainbow or spectrum colors.
Everything that happens in our lives, has its effect on the chakras. Unresolved problems can cause a blockage in one of the chakras. This also disturbs other chakras through which our life energy is not flowing well. By finding that the blockade is to restore the balance. The corresponding chakra can be stimulated by sending it the proper attention. This may, inter alia, by visualization or by the wearing of the matching symbol with possibly a gemstone of the correct color. This will ensure that one is reminded and can handle it in a conscious way.
