Simple ways to clear & balance your chakras
Jul 01, 2019
Making sure our chakra system is working efficiently allows us not only to be living our best life but it helps us connect with our intuition, and our higher self easier and clearer.
Everything in this universe is made up on energy and our 7 main chakra points are the filtration systems to the energy in which we come in contact with. That is why it is important to clear our systems on a consistent basis.
When your chakras are cleared and balanced, energy is able to freely flow through your energetic system. Having balanced chakras impacts your aura, your energetic field. A balanced aura will allow you to attract positive energy. According to the law of attraction, when we hold positive energy, we attract positive results. This leads to an overall greater sense of wellness.
Did you know our body actually has over 70,000 chakras? Each time our meridians cross, that junction is called a chakra. There are seven main chakras that make up our energetic system.
There are many ways to clear and balance our chakras. We can eat foods associated with the colors of each of the chakras. We can also practice yoga where particular poses help to open up certain energy centers.
Just like maintaining a clean home and work environment, chakras need to be maintained regularly too. Each day of the week, focus on balancing one chakra at a time. By the end of the week, notice how you feel once when you have a more balanced chakra system!
