SHAMANIC HEALING WORK AND THE CHAKRA SYSTEM

missver

Healing requires transformation, as such, it should be recognized that healing is a matter of courage. We require a tremendous amount of inner strength  to choose to change familiar patterns of thinking and living, particularly when one is physically weakened or going through an emotional crisis.


The Eastern tradition wisdom teaches us that we are a combination of mental, emotional, psychological and spiritual currents of energy that come together to form the physical body. Our bodies have energy centers called chakras. The word “chakra” is the Hindu word for “wheel” and is used to refer to each of the seven centers located at sequential points along the spine. When these wheels are spinning properly our health is maintained. These energy centers also correspond to major nerve centers in the physical body. The flow of these currents of energy is regulated through our bodies by our beliefs and attitudes, which create all of our fear patterns, concepts of reality, understanding of God and the universe, memories and all the information we stored in our brain through experiences we have had and through different channels of upbringing and education.

We need to understand our energetic anatomy as well as our physical anatomy so we can begin to navigate the healing process. The chakras are a system of interconnected invisible energy wheels that make up our energy anatomy. They are critical to the formation of disease and process of healing in our lives.

The chakras log every single perception throughout our lives according to the quality of power at that moment of our development.

In conclusion,  you can determine the changes in your life by the density of your thoughts. Otherwise, you will continue to live in a group tribal experience.

When you begin to choose your own journey of self-empowerment, you allow change to happen faster in your life because you let go of perceptions/limiting beliefs that no longer serve you and make space for new perceptions in your life.


The journey of life is to unplug you from the illusion of the outside world, which will take your Spirit away. In reviewing the chakra centers and their relationship to the process of personal development, it is clearly visible that each level of development builds upon one another.  Without an adequate sense of personal power, it is impossible to learn to give love and trust others without manipulation or insecure behavior.
