What about chakras?

Since chakras are indeed at the "center" of our physical bodies and involved with all of it's physical, mental, and emotional processes, it is easy to see why they are so important to our well-being.
If we have one or more chakras which are out of balance or "tune", then this can over time lead to physical, emotional or mental dis-ease. Keeping our chakras aligned and "singing" with the harmony that they are meant to have can lead to a sense of health and balance which can improve our lives on many different levels. For instance, if our heart chakra is unbalanced, then we may have difficulty forming good relationships with our loved ones, or it may leave us feeling little empathy for our fellow humans. Or on the other hand, we may be *too* emotional, and take things too much to "heart" which can lead to unnecessary suffering and worry. There is also some medical evidence that people who live happy lives have a decreased incidence of coronary heart disease, thus showing that a happy heart is a healthier heart! Understanding the relationships between our subtle bodies and our physical bodies can help us to lead happier and healthier lives. 

Ancient texts and ancient healing traditions tell us that there is a subtle, divine energy that pervades all living things. This energy is called prana by Hindus, chi by the Chinese, and ki by the Japanese. Today's healers and researchers call this subtle energy by many names - such as primary energy, bio-energy, life force, vital energy, orgon and others. This subtle energy needs a mechanism or path to enter and enliven the human body. Chakras are a major part of the body system which receives this vital energy and transfers it from the subtle, etheric body to the physical body.

Chakras are energy centers located along the center of the body. The word "chakra" means "wheel", and people who can see them often report seeing vortices or spinning wheels of light. The chakras act as transformers of this light / life force / prana / chi, releasing this subtle energy into the aura or etheric body, and then to the physical body. The chakras are related to the endocrine system, the ductless glands of the body. Chakras also affect and influence the part of the body where they are located. Unbalanced chakras can lead to physical imbalances. Many vibrational or energy workers believe that it is the disharmonious, unbalanced or insufficient flow of subtle energy through the chakras which is the ultimate cause of disease.
