What Are Chakras?
Chakras are energetic spinning wheels of light that exist within our energy fields and interpenetrate every level of our consciousness – from the spiritual through to the physical level. They are as vital to our overall health and ability to stay alive as the lungs we use to breathe in oxygen, yet their role in our lives and in our well being is often understood only as an empty concept that we are unable to animate into actual experience.
Your Chakras are a complete map of the make-up of your being, your beliefs, your feelings and the physical health of your body, all of which form an intricate network that is constantly communicating. They are the gateways between the visible and invisible worlds, constantly mediating consciousness and allowing you to interface with the people around you as well as the different planes of light in the universe through your mental, emotional and physical bodies. This all happens automatically, whether we are aware of it or not.
The power of creation is available to you through your Chakras, linking your inner world (what you think, believe, feel and aspire to) and your outer worlds (the present reality in which you find yourself), always allowing you the freedom of choice on how to use this power to create in your world - whether positively or negatively.
How do I Interact with My Chakras and How Does This Influence Me?
Your Chakras are not merely passive conduits of energy. In the physical world the 7 major in-body Chakras are largely concerned with accessing and storing information (consciously and unconsciously) that relate to every thought, emotion, experience and belief that you have ever held within yourself about you and the world around you. They are like highly evolved computer discs recording every second of your life, filtering it through to your cell tissue (which impacts your physical health) and then playing it back to you through your life experience by drawing people and situations to you that mirror your attitudes and beliefs. In this way, over a lifetime, your “biography becomes your biology”.
How Can Working With My Chakras Improve My Life?
By becoming aware of the mental and emotional associations and power plays involved with each of the 7 Major Chakras, we can become aware of why we act and react the way we do and then make new and more empowered choices. As parents learning to work with your Chakras in this way also empowers you to better understand the different stages of psychological growth and power struggles that your children are undergoing at every age. You will be better equipped to be able to relate to them in a more positive way and to teach them from a place of awareness.
Once we become aware of the creative principles involved with each Chakra, we can see how life’s experiences from birth through to the present moment, have contributed to the formation of our programming of attitudes and beliefs and how we have created our lives accordingly. We also become aware of how the negative attitudes and beliefs that we have picked up and have been holding on to for years, may be preventing us from moving forward and becoming more whole and purposeful beings. This leads to the creation of a more positive and fulfilled life.
Ask yourself the following questions:
- What beliefs did you inherit from your Family?
- Do you often direct your creative energies into negative paths of expression?
- Do you like yourself? Do you consider yourself strong or weak?
- Do you use your emotional wounds to control people or situations? What do you still need to heal?
- Who are the people that have control over your willpower and why?
- Do you often interpret the actions of others in a negative way? What attitudes do you have that disempower you?
- What spiritual truths are you aware of that you do not live by?
If you feel ready to answer some of these questions, you are ready to begin the journey of working with your consciousness through the Chakras, setting yourself free from the past and becoming more whole.
