Understanding Chakra Healing

Binaural Beats and Isochronic Tones have been used as, not only for sleep aids or brain toners, but as meditative accompaniments as well. One category of meditation is known as chakra healing, which is a knowledge and a practice not many know or fully understand.

Our body contains a river of energies that flows through our system. We are constantly enveloped and are absorbing these energies each and every day. What many do not know is that we can enhance these energies to fill our mind, body and soul by activating certain energy choke points.

Within these rivers, there are seven known and important energy points. In Hindu and tantric/yogic traditions, among other belief systems, these energy points are called chakras, and each chakra symbolizes and governs specific parts of our physical body, our mental states and our emotional levels.

Not only do our minds and bodies need healing and balancing, our emotional and spiritual part of ourselves needs them too.

In this article, we will guide you through each known chakra and their respective meanings and benefits, as well as some tips to open and cleanse your chakras.

SIMPLE TIPS TO DO:
To prepare yourself for a session of chakra healing, we would advise you to find a comfortable, quiet place where you won't be disturbed or interrupted. Put aside an hour of your time each day for this. If you really want to do this, you will make time for it.

As you begin this session, play each chakra video below and close your eyes. Breathe in and out slowly, focusing your mind on each breath. Be aware of the location of each chakra that you are opening and activating.

As the music starts to play, imagine the color associated with each chakra. You can put an object to those colors, it can be a sphere or a ball of light, or the image displayed in this article.

Now, as the music plays on, imagine cleaning your chakra image. You can pretend to either wipe your chakra object clean, or maybe turn on an imaginary light switch and watch it glow brighter according to its respective color. This is where your chakra cleansing takes place.

Once you feel or think that you are satisfied with the way your chakra glows or gleams, imagine that your are pushing a brilliant river of energy from that chakra point to the next. 

Repeat these simple steps through every chakra point you activate. If you start to feel sensations such as tingling or swaying, do not be afraid or worried. This simply means that your mind and body are accepting the chakra healing.

Crown chakra

Known as the seventh and highest chakra, the Crown or Sahasrara, is located at the very top of the head. It's emotional connection is with our inner and outer beauties, our connection to spirituality and conscious awareness. When this chakra is balanced, we feel pure bliss and a feeling of being one with the universe. Its role may be envisioned somewhat similarly to that of the pituitary gland, which secretes hormones to communicate to the rest of the endocrine system and also connects to the central nervous system via the hypothalamus. Sahasrara's inner aspect deals with the release of karma, physical action with meditation, mental action with universal consciousness and unity, and emotional action with "beingness." The associated color is violet.
