Join Kate from Beach Buddha Meditation for a practice of Chakra
It’s likely you’ve heard the term chakras used by yoga teachers; you may know a lot or a little, but this is the opportunity to dive a little deeper on your own personal chakra journey.
In this immersion, you will learn more about these chakras, what it feels like when your centres are all balanced, how to identify a blocked chakra and what you can do to allow the natural flow. There will be some workshop activities and a long divine Chakra balancing Meditation to leave you feeling refreshed and harmonised throughout your body.
There are seven main chakras each with a specific location in the body, a chakra is not a physical, tangible thing. Rather, it’s an energy centre in the body. The word chakra is a Sanskrit word meaning wheel or disk. So, when we define what a chakra is, we often go back to this translation: a chakra is a wheel of energy in your body.
Think of it like a vortex of energy within you: While chakras are often depicted in images as bright, coloured light, we can’t actually see these energy centres in our body. Rather, we experience them through feelings and sensations. You might also call it an inner knowing or intuition.
Energy is meant to flow, and ideally, this energy (or prana) is always flowing within you. When our chakras are open, energy is flowing and we feel in alignment with our highest selves. But when a chakra is blocked, the energy stagnates, and we become misaligned. Often, this manifests in physical, emotional, mental, and/or spiritual blockages which you will learn more about to enable you to identify when you are feeling blocked and what you can do to restore your energy.
