The word chakra originates from Sanskrit ( the old philosophical language of Hinduism and Buddhism). The word literally means \u2018wheel\u2019 or disk and in energy terms, it is a spinning vortex of energy within the body.<\/p><p>In yoga, meditation, and Ayurveda, the chakra refers to wheels of energy throughout the body. For now, I will focus on the seven main chakras which are positioned along the spinal column of the body. To visualise the chakras within your body, imagine a swirling wheel of energy along each of these points outlined below.<\/p><p><a href=\"https:\/\/test.lightmygaia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/chakras_poster-p228425237866533142t5ta_400-2.jpg\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-799 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/test.lightmygaia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/chakras_poster-p228425237866533142t5ta_400-2.jpg\" alt=\"gaia's light, Evie McRae, Chakras\" width=\"400\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lightmygaia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/chakras_poster-p228425237866533142t5ta_400-2.jpg 400w, https:\/\/lightmygaia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/chakras_poster-p228425237866533142t5ta_400-2-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/lightmygaia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/chakras_poster-p228425237866533142t5ta_400-2-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>While Reiki and the chakra\u2019s do not necessarily come from the same spiritual traditions, they do work well together which is why I offer chakra balancing as a healing therapy.
