Within each one of us, there are whirling vortexes of energy called chakras. These chakras contain valuable information about the mundane as well as the sublime aspects of our every action and thought. Connected through channels that flow up and down our spines, they infuse vitality and knowledge to every facet of our being. When the pathways are unobstructed, the energy easily flows and we feel whole and healthy. When the stresses of everyday life intrude, the energetic flow is hindered. The result is lethargy, anxiety, depression or even disease.
With this new awareness we are able to use the basic yogic practices to enhance, balance and even heal our bodies, minds, and ultimately our lives, thus allowing us to open ourselves up to our natural healing and wholeness. As these pathways are unlocked, the pent-up energy effortlessly flows and we are able to heal everything from simple ailments to life-threatening diseases.
Explore how your actions, thoughts, and images of who you are and how you feel about yourself can lead to health or disease. Experience how the body, mind, and breath interconnect and influence each other.
We will delve into our concepts of modern maladies. Are they preventable or inevitable? By observing and adjusting the images of ourselves and clearing out old patterns from the subtle bodies and mind, we are able to gain control of our very life force. Simple practices, along with a finely tuned consciousness, can lead us to the depth of our soul, enabling us to experience health and wholeness.
