Spiritual and yogic traditions propose that your body has seven main energy centers, referred to in Sanskrit as chakras. When looking to fine-tune your holistic health, you will want to consider the state of your chakra system. 

The word chakra translates to “wheel.” These vortices of energy are often depicted as spinning wheels running from the base to the crown of your spine. Each wheel is associated with specific expressions, indications, and biological associations.

Our work together occasionally calls on us to balance one or more of your chakras. The energetic state of each chakra is reflected by the velocity of its spin. Chakras can be open, resulting in a swift spin, or blocked, resulting in little to no spin. These wheels need to flow freely in order for you to experience the mental, physical, and emotional balance required for well-being. 

The events of 2025 continue to signal that our structures (i.e. financial, political, educational, social, etc.) are evolving. In order to be able to thrive through the chaotic energy that transitions can cause, you will want to ensure that your chakras are tuned-up.

This month, I invite you to review the state of your chakras. Your chakra system, with its corresponding expressions, indications, and biological associations, is summarized below.

Do you get a sense that one or more of your chakras could benefit from a tune-up?

Root chakra blockages connected with fear and security are especially common, particularly during periods of transition. A blockage in any one chakra will affect energy flow to the others and eventually your holistic health. Don’t let this happen to you. 

If needed, I can help you to identify where your energy flow may be improved as well as support you in opening up any restriction.

Remember: Everything is about energy, including you.
