Hi. Am Onsando and I normally write summaries and reviews on books in multiple genres. Today, let's talk Chakra Healing.
Chakras: Energy centers in our bodies.
There are seven chakras in the human body: root, sacral, solar plexus, heart, throat, third eye and crown chakras.
As a center of energy, each chakra can be affected negatively which will directly manifest as a physical ailment or symptom.
The essence of the whole book is to pass on knowledge on how to identify a physical symptom or condition and zero in on a particular chakra to help alleviate the discomfort.
Our bodies are always telling us exactly where our imbalances lie.
The reader is advised that, several bodily discomforts can be explained. For example, lifting heavy objects can result to sore arm muscles after sometimes, poor diet can result to constipation........ But there are some actual discomforts that can remain unexplained. They can also be as a result of mental or psychological distress.
Such discomforts are a result of misaligned chakra/s. In the book, the author gives such examples. An unexplained leg pain is a result of misaligned root and solar plexus chakras which can be a result of psychologically fear of moving forward or taking the next step in life.
To realign the chakras, and hence heal our physical bodies, Alcantara advices on several methods: Affirmations, yoga, essential oils, crystals among others.
