We are all-powerful energetic beings gifted with the ability to carry an active electromagnetic energy field around our bodies.
This field protects our physical form and supports our mental and emotional states. It’s like a sophisticated power grid, also known as an auric field, and it is generated by the chakras in our body.
Internal energy obstructions and stagnation may cause the auric field to become dysfunctional, thus it is critical to maintaining our chakras healthy.
When a chakra is out of balance (for example overactive or underactive), it will ultimately influence the other chakras, most commonly the chakras directly beneath or above the afflicted chakra.
In this article, I am going to share with you some of the best chakra healing methods I learned and practiced over the last few years.
Most of these techniques are very simple, safe, and easy to practice. All you need to start is an intention to heal, balance, and unblock your chakras.
Let’s dive right in!
What Are Chakras?
Chakra is a Sanskrit word literally meaning wheel or circle, and it originates from the ancient Indian yoga system and the philosophy of Tantra.
Chakras can be best described as the vortexes of energy located vertically along the spine, and they correspond to the spinal plexuses in the physical body.
Chakras are like portals through which subtle energies and information from upper planes of existence (such as the astral or causal plane) are funneled through to us.
They work as regulators and transformers, receiving, assimilating, and distributing the pranic life-force energy to the subtle body.
The chakras then channel this information and energy through the nadis and meridians, which run like a complicated river and irrigation system across the body.
We get a deeper understanding of ourselves and learn how to heal ourselves on all levels when we connect with the energy inside our chakras, resulting in genuine holistic healing.

How Do You Know If Your Chakras Are Blocked?
To work correctly and to be balanced, all of your chakras must be open. Obstructions to the energy flow inside a chakra may bring emotional and physical discomfort or negative symptoms related to the chakra that is blocked.
If your chakras are blocked, you may experience a variety of signs and symptoms. These obstructions can either be physical, emotional, spiritual or psychological.
Some of the most common signs of blocked chakras are:
- Physical body sensations.
- Physical body manifestation of diseases and illnesses.
- Negative feelings such as fear, anxiety, doubt, and depression.
- Addictive behaviors and bad habits.
- Extreme emotions, such as uncontrollable anger or complete apathy.
- Mental disorders.
- Blocks in manifesting your dream life.
- Being spiritually rigid.
Life is more harmonious when there is a healthy balance between the auric (energetic) body and the physical body.
Each of the chakra’s associated endocrine glands will be impacted if the flow of energy in the chakras is obstructed and imbalanced, producing dysfunction in the physical body as well as mental and emotional disorders.
