2,000 years ago, Asian healers believed that the flow and balance of life energies were vital in maintaining health, and that illnesses were due to energy imbalances.

 They developed therapies and practices, such as acupuncture, yoga, and Qigong to correct these imbalances.

More than 86,000 nurses and other health professionals use Healing Touch in American hospitals and throughout the world each year.

Chakra Connection        30 Minutes                                              Chakra connection can be done by itself or as the last part of a 1.5 or 2 hour Thai Yoga session.

Chakra connection is a Healing Touch technique that uses Reiki, meditation, and a sequence of hand placements on the body. This deeply relaxing technique facilitates the free flow of energy throughout the body and chakra system. The Chakras within the body are known to be energy centers, this technique is used to connect, open, and balance the body's energy.  

What are the Chakras?

 (Check out chakra photos in the photo gallery.)

Chakra is the most common term for the energy centers that occur along the midline of the body, within the auric field. Visualized as spinning wheels or vortices of light and colour, chakras are centers of energy that relate to each of our body’s systems and organs.

 Each chakra corresponds to a different area of the body and an aspect of the psyche. Physical and psychological problems are thought to show up in a person’s chakras and energy field long before symptoms are noticeable.

Chakras are often listed by their colour and frequency or energy vibration. The colour of a chakra will vary with the health, awareness, and character of an individual. Chakras are sensitive to energy work and to healing “ingredients” like essential oils, sound healing, energy work, bodywork and holistic therapies.

The lower chakras (root, sacral and solar plexus) correspond to our physical body and our “lower impulses,” while the upper chakras (throat, brow, and crown) relate to communication, vision and foresight, our intuition, and the connection with spirituality and divinity.

The heart chakra is the symbolic bridge between the two. It is believed that past life memories and the impact of our past lives can lodge in any of these energy centers, and affect the health of the chakra and the health of our bodies.
