Chakra Blockages

and Your Physical and Energetic Health

Chakra blockages are a common energetic problem. By learning more about this phenomenon, you can achieve a deeper health.

What Are the Chakras?

There are seven major chakras, plus many minor ones. Each chakra corresponds to specific glands, organs, and facets of your being.

Energy flows through the chakra system in two ways. First, it flows up and down along the central channel, connecting the chakras. Second, it flows horizontally, in an exchange of energy with the cosmos.

Blocked Chakras

A good description of chakra blockage and its significance comes from the Chios Healing Level II manual (http://www.chioshealing.com/HealingLevel2/EnergyDefects/energydefects.htm)

Blocked chakras coincide with certain psychological issues—with certain existential biases that the patient has adopted in their relationship to reality. These existential biases inhibit the wider range of self-awareness and action available to the patient, restricting it to a limited range of expression. . . .The manner in which the energy in the chakra system (and the body) is similarly restricted, and cannot operate freely and effectively at certain levels, reflects the corresponding way in which the entire life process has become restricted. . . . Unblocking chakras, in concert with other techniques, often provides a great deal of emotional healing and spiritual healing for the patient, and prevents physical disease, too.

Energy healing can help to open chakras and return the physical and energetic systems to better health.
