Chakras are best described as the internal, color coded energy system that links a person's physical body (nervous system) to their spiritual body (higher self).
The Chakra System is constantly taking in, processing, & sending back out the things you think, see, feel, say, believe, and do as metaphysical energy. That energy represents, regulates, & governs the individual personality traits, quirks, habits, & more that directly contribute to your overall satisfaction, health, and personal success in life.
To function at it’s highest capacity, each Chakra is meant to be open (taking in & sending out energy freely) while spinning at a steady speed (processing energy fully).
Throughout the day and built up over time, negative energies from the way you cope with unresolved guilt/anger, past traumas, financial struggles, health issues, family/workplace dynamics, & other regular daily stresses cause individual chakras to become clogged/blocked, forcing partially processed (negative) energy to generate imbalances throughout the rest of the system as a whole.
To keep your chakra energy freely flowing positive, set intentions that transform these regular daily chores and habits into symbolic mini energy cleaning actions.
1 • Take a Shower - Cleanse your physical body to represent rinsing off the day’s negative energy before it has a chance to set in.
2 • Take out the Trash - Clean garbage from around your house, car, office, and other personal spaces to represent throwing away negative energy before it has a chance to clutter up.
3 • Diffuse an Essential Oil - Purify the air around you to represent eliminating lingering negative energy before it has the chance to settle on the surface.
4 • Hydrate - Drink water to represent flushing negative energy from your system before it has a chance to build up.
5 • Practice Gratitude - Find the good in all of life’s moments to represent filtering out negative energy and recycling it into positive power before it has a chance to be disruptive.
