What are the Chakras?

चक्र

 What does the word Chakra means?

The word Chakra (pronounced “cha”-“kra” with a resounding “ch”) is derives from the Sanskrit word  चक्र  which means “wheel”, “circle” or “cycle”. The Chakras symbolises endless rotation of shakti (energy) and is commonly described by many cultures as a “spinning wheel of light” also described as lotus flowers each with their distincts number of petals, colors, fragrances, sounds, etc.

Chakras, by definition, are energy centers within the human body that help to regulate all its processes, from organ function to the immune system and emotions with its function as a vortex of spinning energy interacting with various physiological and neurological systems in the body.

Of the 88,000 chakras within the human body, 7 are considered of principle importance and are referred to as the “major” or “main” chakras. Those 7 chakras are positioned throughout your body, from the base of your spine to the crown of your head. Each chakra has its own vibrational frequency, that is depicted through a specific chakra color, and governs specific functions.

Below is an extract from a most beautiful inspiring book called "The Song Of Your Life- Expect a Miracle" by Srila Bhagavata Bhusana Guru.

Chakras & The Human Body

As we explained each of the body’s major 7 chakras are associated with specific locations on the body, such as the heart and crown of the head. The Chakra system is believed to govern and influence an underlying network of glands and their nearby organs.

These 7 chakra symbols are vital to our health. Negative feelings hamper the spin of these chakras, resulting in sickness and disease. This vital energy center that resides in our bodies is not detectable by most modern medical means. Therefore modern western medicine does not support the existence of chakras, that is why a majority of North Americans have never heard of them. But the eastern nations, as well as aboriginal and tribal people all over the world, are not only aware of these chakra symbols and what they are capable of doing, but have created visual pictures of the chakra symbols..

Not all cultures visualize the chakra symbols the same. What does seem universal is that the colors appear to be mostly consistent, and the higher chakras move more quickly than the lower chakras.

Unblocking, Balancing & Realigning Chakras

Wondering what healthy chakras feel like? The foundation to a healthy system consists in opening and balancing the chakras in order to create a sustainable, harmonious flow of energy. A number of practices aim at opening the chakras. They often originate from traditional schools of thoughts associated with Eastern spirituality, as well as modern healing modalities often derived from these practices.

When the chakra system functions properly, it is characterized by several properties:

  • Balance, overall equilibrium
  • Distinction between the different quality of energies or frequencies associated with each chakra
  • Appropriate intensity or level of energy of each chakra
  • Appropriate direction (clockwise or counterclockwise)
  • Appropriate polarity (inward and outward flow, or reception and expression)

Today’s chakra healing techniques are created by people coming from a broad range of fields from energy healing and holistic medicine, to fitness and psychology.

What does Chakras and Reiki have in commun?
Reiki is a spiritual practice originating from Japan that uses hands-on energy healing to support a person’s self-healing and balance. Reiki and the chakras have something in common: They relate to energy and how it functions in the human body. Reiki healing is a whole body healing approach that relies on the transmission of energy through the hands into the person who is the recipient.

Reiki Energy Healing

What is Reiki?

Reiki is a healing art originally born in Japan. The sound (Rei) means “Universal Life” and (Ki) or (Chi) means “Energy”. It is a subtle but yet effective form of energy work using spiritual life force or energy and the power of intentions. It is not based on a particular religious practice and we have seen Reiki healers from all corners of the world.

Reiki is the universal life energy that flows through all living things. We believe that everyone has the ability to connect, channel or tap into this healing energy and use it to heal themselves and help others. It is a vibrational healing practice used to promote balance throughout the human system. When a person’s energy is strong and flows freely their body and mind can come to a homeostasis state. In the same way when the energy is blocked and weakened it brings the physical or emotional body into imbalance and dis-ease.

We usually begin a session with our hands positioned at the person’s head or feet. The receiver might feel a warming sensation or a tingling during the session or just pure relaxation. Most people report the session to be very pleasant, relaxing and can be invigorating.

We offer 60 min Reiki session fully clothed or you can choose to receive an “Add-on” Reiki during your regular massage session to help ease tension and stress and to facilitate a favorable environment for healing on the physical, mental, and emotional level.

At Shakti Wellness Reiki can be done with or without direct touch (we may apply a light touch, or if a client prefers not to be touched they can indicate this before we begin and the session will be hands-off (where our hands only hove over  your body). Typically this is performed fully clothed and/or lying inside the sheets with a warm cover.

History of Reiki

Dr Mikao Usui was born on the 18th August 1865 in Japan and was the founder of the Usui System of Reiki or Usui Shiki Ryoho.  He is also often referred to as Usui Sensei, (Sensei meaning one who teaches). His tradition and methods were passed through several grandmasters of Reiki. Today, The Usui System of Natural Healing is still the form of Reiki most widely practiced. Practitioners and Master Teachers are trained through an initiation process where Masters pass on their knowledge and expertise to their students.

Usui also mastered Samurai swordsmanship and Kiko, the Japanese form of Chi Kung.  Usui was interested in different types of medicine, energy movement and religions, reading widely on all subjects.  Usui was looking to find a way to heal himself and others, using his hands, that didn’t deplete his own energy levels and he devoted many years searching for a system.  His open minded approach towards other belief systems and religions is why Reiki is accessible to everyone.

What is Reiki used to Treat?

Reiki is a great tool for stress reduction and relaxation. Many people use Reiki for wellness. Reiki is not a cure for a disease or illness, but it assist the body in creating an environment to facilitate healing. Reiki is a great tool to use as a complement to traditional medicine and is practiced in many hospitals and medical care settings.

How does Reiki relates to the Chakras?

Reiki and the chakras have something in common: They relate to energy and how it functions in the human body. Reiki healing is a whole body healing approach that relies on the transmission of energy through the hands into the person who is the recipient.
