What Are Chakras?

Chakras are energy centers located along the spine, each corresponding to different physical, emotional, and spiritual aspects of our being. The word "chakra" comes from Sanskrit, meaning "wheel" or "disk," symbolizing the spinning energy within these centers. There are seven main chakras, each with a unique function and associated with specific colors, elements, and mantras.

The Seven Chakras

• Color: Red
• Element: Earth
• Mantra: "Lam"
• Significance: The root chakra is the foundation of our energy system, representing stability, security, and survival. It governs our connection to the physical world and our sense of grounding.

When balanced, the root chakra provides a sense of safety and confidence. Imbalances may lead to feelings of insecurity, fear, and physical issues such as lower back pain.

2. Sacral Chakra (Svadhisthana)
