7 Steps to a Chakra Cleansing (To Perform on Yourself or Someone Else)

Everything in the universe radiates energy, from the tiniest blade of grass to the biggest ocean or mountain to each cell in the body. These cells emit energy in various ways and depending on their location within the body different cells will emit different energies. Given the special nature of our body’s energy, there are several channels located on key points of our body through which energy flows in and out. These channels are known as chakras.

In Sanskrit, chakra means “wheel”. The direction the energy flows is determined by the frequency of our chakras as they either release energy from the body or draw it inward. While the concept of chakras still manages to evade any scientific proof, it has existed across cultures for thousands of years. It has been demonstrated and studied repeatedly in the yogic and Ayurvedic traditions as well as through concepts of meridians and Qi. The influence of the power of the quantum field, the life force flowing through us, and the body’s energy are things our scientific capabilities haven’t caught up with. We believe we would eventually get there but until then we can only rely on the teachings of others and our experience.

The chakras are the seven centers of spiritual power in the human body. Each one associated with different sets of systems and organs. They are also part of the oldest texts called the Vedas which is scriptures of Hinduism. Each chakra corresponds with a different organ in your body. They take into play your emotional, physical, psychological, and spiritual states of conscious being. It’s kind of like all aspects of the human body combined into one. When these different chakras are opened and aligned, they are in this state of flow. To reach the flow state, you can definitely open and balance each different chakra to get the most of your human body.

So this article will go through all the seven chakras as well as the location of where they are, the foundation of them, their color, a yoga pose that you can do to tap into them, the mantras (it’s basically a hand position that signals reflexes to the brain) of each chakra, the responsibility of each chakra, and the signs to know if they are open and balanced or if they are overactive or if they are blocked. We will also discuss some activities you can do to open and balance each different chakra.

How Does Chakra Cleansing Work?

Although a chakra may be a vortex or a wheel, it operates just like a ball of energy that is interpenetrating the physical body. The chakras are not physical themselves but are aspects of consciousness that interacts with the energetic and physical body through the nervous system and endocrine system. Each of the chakras is associated with the nine endocrine glands and with a group of nerves known as the plexus. This makes them an important element in healing. So each chakra corresponds with particular functions within the body and particular parts of the body controlled by that endocrine gland or that plexus. This is the key to understanding how chakra cleansing works.

The chakras represent both the particular part of our physical body and the particular parts of our consciousness. We can divide all your perceptions, senses, and possible state of awareness into seven categories and you can associate each of the categories with a particular chakra.

Opening and Closing Chakras

The opening and closing of the chakras work just like an energetic defense system. Negative experiences and the low-frequency energies that accompany it can lead to the associated chakra energy closing in to block the energy out. Similarly, if you cling to a feeling like prolonging the emotion and blame because you refuse to deal with it, you close the chakra off. Once you open and heal your chakras, energy starts to freely flow and everything goes back to normal.

Sometimes, it involves us moving energy throughout the body, or extracting and tackling a difficult thorn that is stressing you out. So it is important to understand how chakra healing is and your chakras are opened. This allows your energy to move through with no obstruction. Each chakra’s connection to a key nervous system and endocrine gland in the body means an energy deficiency could cause serious physical consequences if ignored for too long.

Why is Chakra Cleansing Necessary?

Chakra cleansing is important because a blocked chakra can stop energy flow. Not only will this interfere with our daily life but it can create a spiritual block as well. This can start as psychological symptoms: a lack of motivation, unable to concentrate, feeling distant or perhaps feeling depressed. This can lead to certain physical symptoms if left untreated, including headache (for the Third Eye or Crown Chakras) or stomach pains for the sacral or solar plexus chakras. Whether your chakra is blocked or not, you can chakra cleanse regularly or only when the symptoms strike.

Chakra Cleansing Techniques

Probably, you are wondering how to cleanse the chakras. There are various methods to go about it: you can either perform a chakra cleansing meditation for all your chakras at a time or you can do for each individual chakra. Performing a chakra cleansing meditation for all the chakras at once helps the general energy flow. Necklaces and pendants can also help with chakra cleansing. Doing both is the best option if you have the energy and time. If you have limited time, you can perform a chakra cleansing meditation on the particular chakra creating problems by being blocked.
