Chakras: Subtle Energy Centers

→ Page Includes Complete Chakra Chart with helpful instructions

Each of us has has seven primary subtle energy centers called chakras. Chakras are considered as one of the most important indicators of a person’s health and well-being.

Traditionally, the seven primary chakras are described as spinning wheels of subtle energy that span from the base of the spine to the crown of the head.

Chakras guide the developmental stages of our body, mind, and emotions, and awaken our potential as spiritual beings. The chakras are referenced in the yogic wisdom books dating back five thousand years. Many medical, mental health, spiritual and mind-body professionals now seek to understand and apply the ancient knowledge of the chakras within their field of expertise.

Each of the seven chakras is associated with and has an influence on physical locations in the body as well as on adjacent muscles, organs, glands, and nerves. Yogis believe they house the guiding intelligence of prana, the universal energy of life.

Furthermore, each is related to stages of psychological growth and human development and has lessons to guide us through life that are integral to our soul’s journey.

Because they are energetic rather than physical structures, they are not considered to part of our physical anatomy. They can be described as psycho-energetic or psycho-spiritual centers located in the subtle body. Like magnetism existing within an iron magnet, they exist within the body without having a physical presence.

Each chakra is associated with color, crystals, sounds, goddess archetypes, yoga postures, healing and balancing colors, an element, and sounds.

Establishing and maintaining balance throughout all the chakras is optimal since one chakra is not particularly better than the others. Chakra energy currents move both vertically and horizontally. When the chakras are unbalanced with either excessive or deficient energy, the result is physical, mental, emotional or spiritual difficulties. Fortunately, a wide range of techniques exists to open, align, and activate the chakras.

The chakra chart provides information to further your understanding and growth. It was originally published in Yoga Meditations: Timeless Mind-Body Practices in 2005 and is continually updated to include more information.

Chakra Chart

This Chakra Chart (C) is for personal use only and not duplication. It is reprinted with permission from Julie’s Yoga Meditation book. Order your own beautiful 8.5 x 14″ full-color laminated chart below. Volume orders are welcome. Contact us.

How to use the Chakra Chart for healing and balancing yourself

Begin by familiarizing yourself with the names, locations, and characteristics of each chakra. Here are some ideas for getting started.

Balanced Chakra Energy: Maintain balance with continued healthy attitudes, behaviors, emotions and appropriate yoga postures, breathing practices and activities.
Unbalanced Chakra Energy: Examine the chakras’ lessons, rights, responsibilities and challenges to determine what areas need improvement and make suitable changes. Practice the breathing practices, yoga postures and other healing activities and healthy behaviors. Set an intention and enhance it with the musical notes, instruments and crystals. Practice self-care and get competent help from others as needed. In addition:
Excessive Chakra Energy: Use the chakras’ balancing color. Chant or sing the vowel sounds to send and release excess energy. “Too much of a good thing” is harmful so decrease behaviors that are excessive.
Deficient Chakra Energy: Use the chakras’ emanating color. Chant or sing the Bija mantra sounds to increase and attract energy.

Don’t be mistaken by seeing this information boxed into columns and rows. The lines are there to help clarify the information. Think of it as an intermingling or as a gradual blending. It’s somewhat like how the colors in a rainbow gradually transform from one shade to another and at the same time a color can stand on its own.

Ultimately, there is no separation. We are in a unified field of oneness that is as directionless and timeless as it is spacious. http://JulieLusk.com

My meeting with the Dalai Lama

October 2, 2010 by Julie Lusk

My notes from hearing the Dalai Lama on May 14, 2010 – Indianapolis, IN

The Dalai Lama was in Indianapolis to speak on Facing Challenges with Wisdom and Compassion.

It was at the Conseco basketball arena. Just like a basketball, the sound bounced around making it hard to hear clearly. It reminded me of the acoustics when we heard Thich Nhat Hanh in Chicago. Too much echo.

Still, I picked up a lot and I’d like to share it with you with the understanding that any misconceptions are on my part, and not on the part of the Dalai Lama.

All people want to achieve, and have the right to happiness and inner peace.

Should there be more Buddhism in America? No. He said Americans already have the answers for finding true happiness and inner peace by way of the religions we already practice. Practicing common sense is another viable path.

Different religions rely on different qualities and pathways to achieve happiness and inner peace. Some rely on faith, others promote surrender, while compassion is the path for others. All these qualities, and religions, have the potential to take us to true happiness and inner peace. We should do our best to respect the different religious paths and know that each has its own benefits that reach out to various cultures, temperaments, and times. It’s about having respect for all religions.

All humans, no matter the color, culture, sex, or age, have a common connection to compassion that is biological and instinctual. The love of a mother and the instinct of protecting the child are good examples. Even a mother bird may sacrifice her life for the sake of her baby. Compassion is instinctual, however, it gets covered up and overruled by the thinking mind.

Rely on common sense.
Respect and have compassion toward all.
We all want and deserve true happiness and inner peace.
Rely on truth, trust, love, and compassion to lead to inner strength, peace and happiness.
Practice unbiased compassion – this is compassion that can even reach our enemies.
A negative mind causes suffering for the self and others.
Fear and hate interferes with health.
Compassion has actually been shown to lower blood pressure and stress. Wounds heal quicker. For example, a wound on a rat heals faster when it is affectionately licked by another rat.
The minds ‘intelligence’ can overrule our compassionate, instinctual, intrinsic nature.
Look for new opportunities and changes that come from things that anger us.
Have a global interest. To have global disarmament, we have to start with inner, personal disarmament. To have global peace, we must have inner peace first. Go with truth, love, trust, unbiased compassion and inner beauty. This is lasting.
He said that everything is/or can be good, very good. This includes such things as money, technology, and divorce. It’s the motivation and intent and how these things are used that makes the difference. Are they used with compassion, openness, acceptance or not?
Money, objects, technology can be good – very good – if they are used with right motivation and intention and put to good use.
Put your affections where affections can be returned .
Don’t put affections toward objects as these things cannot return affection.
When we are affectionate toward objects, it leads to jealousy and greed for objects. Objects cannot return affection.
Inner beauty is higher than outer beauty as it lasts. Rely on truth, trust, love, and unbiased compassion to bring inner peace and happiness.
