What is a Chakra?
The Sanskrit word “chakra” means in literal terms: “spinning wheel”. The chakra system within the human body consists of 7 major chakras and many minor chakras. To those who can see energy fields, a major chakra resembles a spinning wheel when looking directly into the chakra. However, viewed from the side, it looks more like an energy vortex somewhat resembling the shape of a tornado. This energy funnel is tight and compact near the surface of the skin, and gradually widens as it extends outside the physical body to the outer edge of the aura.
What is the purpose or function of the human chakra system?
To take in higher-dimensional energy from the Universal Energy Field all around us and translate or step down its frequency of vibration to that which can be used within the physical body. Each major chakra vibrates or spins at a different rate, and each chakra will absorb energy from the UEF that is harmonically related to its own frequency. Thus, energy from several frequency bands within the UEF is absorbed by the different chakras and is directed by the internal energy meridians to those organs with which that chakra is associated:
Major Chakras and Associated Organs and Glands.
| Chakra | Associated Organs | Endocrine Gland |
| Crown | Upper Brain, Right Eye | Pineal |
| Brow | Ears, Nose, Lower Brain, Nervous System, Left Eye |
Pituitary |
| Throat | Lungs, Larynx, Alimentary Canal | Thyroid, Parathyroid |

Many minor chakras are also located throughout the body, and are usually associated with joints such as the knee, shoulder, elbow, etc. Additional minor chakras are found in the palms of both hands and the soles of the feet, and the ends of the fingers and toes.

How to Heal Anxiety and Panic
What are panic attacks? Panic Attacks are periods of intense fear or apprehension that are of sudden onsetand of variable duration from minutes to hours. Panic attacks usually begin abruptly, may reach a peak within 10 minutes, but may continue for much longer if the sufferer had the attack triggered by a situation from which they are not able to escape.
A panic attack is a response of the sympathetic nervous system (SNS)
How can you begin to heal from having anxiety?
Frontal Lobe – Take good care of your frontal lobe. Nutrition, food, positive thoughts, clean spring water, live organic food, exercise, vitamins. Sleep, relaxing time, laughter, yoga, meditation
Positive Thoughts – When you have a successful event, this actually builds more positive neurons and healthy solutions in the brain an example is dopamine and gaba ( which are solutions the brain produces to promote peacefulness within the brain. The brain needs to maintain healthy brain homeostasis. Successful accomplishments actually build more opportunities for more successful outcomes.
Clean Spring Water – This is important to keep the brain hydrated and the body uses the water to flush toxins out of the system and feed the body appropriately
Live organic food – Our bodies thrive and energetically respond much better to organic food. One reason why this because it has lots of nutrients without the chemical pesticides. Another reason is organic food has good portions of all the seasons within its system.
Meditation is always a wonderful way to calm the central nervous system. If you start your day with this simple ten minute meditation when faced with stressful situations you can remember how to connect with an expansive breath. Click here for information on the Timelessness Meditation CD (10min)
How to Prepare for the Fall Equinox
What is Autumn/Fall Equinox:
The Autumn Equinox is the day in which we switch seasons from summer to fall. Fall equinox is when day and night are the same length of time signaling a significant time of balance.
As we wrap up the remaining time of the calendar, we see this as a powerful gateway into the final months of the year. It is common to utilize this time to reflect and plan on what you’d like to accomplish in the upcoming year.
5 Ways to Prepare for the Fall Equinox:
- Time to harvest- and gather for the winter. Both literally and figuratively. Harvest what makes you happy, feel loved and safe.
- Improve your health with balanced eating habits and exercise. Remember that mental health is so very important. Say empowering things to yourself every morning and remind yourself of what you accomplished every night.
- Fall is a time to turn your home into a calm place- more time indoors than outdoors. This is a perfect time to get those projects done around the house to come winter you can look around and smile. Read our blog on 5 Unique Techniques for Space Clearing.
- Time to meditate. Summer days are often filled with activities which sometimes take us away from our spiritual practices. Revisit your meditation practices and remember they don’t always have to be like pinterest shows. Lay down and listen to the loving kindness meditation – it’s ok if you fall asleep 🙂
- Use the energy you gained from the summer solstice to regain focus on your goals, what is truly important for you and draw a line in the sand to mark out what you don’t want in your life. The change of season is perfect time reevaluate your lifestyle and make positive changes.
