The chakras are a series of seven energy fields or centers of consciousness in the body which harbor latent divine energy known as Kundalini energy. The balance or imbalance of these vortices affects a person's health, as well as his or her emotional and spiritual well-being and evolution. The first section begins with a lesson on Kundalini energy and describes the chakras through colors, sounds, foods, and the elements. The second section presents holistic methods used for balancing: herbs, homeopathy, aromatherapy, astrology, polarity, bodywork, color therapy, sound therapy, proper diet and nutrition, yoga, affirmations, flower essences, and pranayama. The third section identifies symptoms of imbalance and techniques for self-healing.
