Beginners Guide to Chakras: Understanding the Energy Centers (Part 1)
Understanding the Different Chakras
In the vast realm of spiritual energy, our bodies act as vessels through which this energy, known as qi, chi, or kundalini, flows. These energy currents travel through various centers within us, commonly referred to as Chakras. The word "Chakra" translates to "wheel" or "disc" and signifies the spinning, dynamic activity emanating from the major nerve ganglia branching out from our spinal column. There are seven primary Chakras along this path, spanning from the base of the spine to the top of the head. Additionally, minor Chakras are found in the hands, feet, fingertips, and shoulders. In this series, we will explore the different Chakras, their characteristics, and their significance.
