What Happens When Your Chakras Are Blocked
How to clear them
Chakras are energy centers located in a line in the body. Although they are energetic in nature, they correspond with parts of the body. They can get blocked when we are holding onto emotions. This causes experiences to feel stuck, and stagnant, and overall we feel out of sorts.
Most of us live life unaware of these energy centers let alone whether or not they are blocked, out of alignment, closed, or too open. We can have a hard time accepting that something we can’t see or feel is real.
Like any system of the body, the chakras need to move, they need to be clear. If they aren’t the system breaks down. We have seven chakras (some schools of belief teach there are more, but this is a basic interpretation). They are located at the crown, third eye, throat, heart, stomach, sacral (abdomen) root (base of the spine). If one becomes blocked it’s harder for the others to keep moving.
How to clear your chakras
You can use your hands to clear your chakras. Take one hand and move it counterclockwise above or in front of the crown chakra, and then move it clockwise. This clears out and moves forward the energy in that chakra.
Repeat for each of the remaining six chakras.
