Chakras are psychic centers in the body that are active at all times, whether we are conscious of them or not. Energy moves through the chakras to produce different psychic states.

Knowledge about the chakras can be a valuable key to introspection. It is possible to observe oneself and sense energy moving through the various chakra centers.

Practices such as fasting, charity and selfless service cause teh energy to flow into the higher centers; the dormant energy in the root chakra becomes active and begins its ascent. Maintaining the upward flow of energy in higher centers can be helped through conscious breath, sounding the chakras, and piercing the first 6 chakras by visualization.

SEVEN SACRED SOUNDS OF THE MAJOR CHAKRAS

HOW IT WORKS

 AT FIRST, THE PRACTITIONER IS CONSCIOUS OF SOUND AS IT ARISES IN THE THROAT; AS THE AWARENESS DEEPENS, THEIR CONSCIOUSNESS BECOMES INCREASINGLY CLEAR AND UNIFIES TO BECOME THE SOUND ITSELF. THE MIND IS PURIFIED AND BECOMES TRANQUIL.HEALING BEGINS HERE.

THE IMPORTANCE OF BREATH IN HEALING PRACTICE

 IN MY EXPERIENCE, I CAN'T EMPHASIZE ENOUGH HOW CRUCIAL THIS IS FOR CONNECTION WITH SPIRIT AND KEY TO ANY HEALING PRACTICE.

WHEN YOU FOCUS YOUR AWARENESS ON YOUR BREATH, FOLLOWING THE IN AND OUT, DEEPENING, LISTENING TO IT AND YOUR BODY'S RESPONSE TO RECEIVING IT AND LETTING IT GO, YOU WILL EXPERIENCE WHAT IT MEANS TO TRULY BE IN THE PLACE OF EVERYTHING AND NOTHING,

WHERE EVERLASTING LIVES--THE NOW. TIME DOES NOT EXIST HERE. IT IS FREE OF IDEAS AND THOUGHTLESSNESS. WE CAN REST, REVIVE, RE-CONNECT WITH OUR AUTHENTIC SELF AND BECOME ONE WITH THE INSPIRATION THAT IS LIFE ITSELF.

LIFE COMMUNICATES TO US ALL THAT IS NECESSARY TO LIVE FREE OF DIS-EASE. OUR JOB IS TO FIND THE PRESENCE TO STOP, BREATHE, LISTEN AND BE WILLING TO IMPLEMENT THE CHANGES NECESSARY TO HEAL.
