Imbalance can occur when certain energy centers, or chakras become blocked making them deficient or are overactive. The main energy centers we work with in energy healing are called chakras.
Chakra means 'wheel' in Sanskrit. The chakras are wheels of energy that align down the center of our body and are portals of information exchange. There are seven main chakras that we typically work with in energy healing, however it is important to note that there are many more chakras.
The chakras each correspond to an area of life as well as a gland within the body. Our energy centers can be come blocked or overactive based on repetitive thoughts that become programmed patterns in our energy field, by emotions, stress, the food we eat, other people's energy fields and how we exchange with them, and our environment.
