Hello! My name is Tara Noelle Poey and I am the owner of Miracles Wellness Center. I have created this Quick Guide to Chakras to give you a basic understanding of the 7 energy centers which run throughout your body. If you would like more in-depth information about chakras, please check out my Intro to Chakras Class which can be taken in person or online this Spring.
Your chakra system is comprised of 7 wheels of spinning energy. Each chakra corresponds to different areas of life and specific emotions. Blockages can form in your chakras when you do not fully process and release negative emotions that arise from challenging or painful life experiences. If you do not clear these blockages, the energy flow in your body slows down (or stops completely) and can cause physical and emotional problems. It is extremely important to be aware of your chakras and take appropriate action to balance and clear them on a regular basis. Sound Baths and Guided Meditations are very powerful tools for chakra clearing. There are also specific suggestions mentioned below to help heal each energy center.
