    The Body’s Energy Centers

  • Eastern philosophy and medicine, originating in ancient India and China, have traditionally regarded body structures and processes of life within inseparable. Their terminology is located halfway between structure and function and identifies certain entities in the human body, what. The flow of vital energy and, in a sense, for these flow lines, which do not correspond to anatomical structures recognized by Western science and medicine Chakras are the energy centers in the field of biology of a person and are responsible for their status physiological and psychological, as well as some groups of organs. All the important functions of the human body are determined by turning the energy in the chakras. This may "means vortices" as, and in India, which is defined as "bursts of energy" or "wheels".

      
    The energy conversion process takes place in these centers. The vital energy, along with the blood circulates around the meridians in the chakras and fuels all organs and systems of the human body. When circulation is stagnant in these meridians, the human body is susceptible to various diseases. Fight a good prevention method specifically designed stagnation About the Gun, an ancient Chinese method of healing that activates the energy centers. About Gun teaches release energy by massaging specific areas that correspond to the different chakras.

      
    There are 49 chakras in Vedic canons, seven of which are mentioned base, 21 are in the second circle, and 21 in the third circle. After Vedis there are several energy channels. For different locations of the chakras Three of these channels are simple. The first, called "Shushumna" is hollow, and concentrated in the spine. The other two lines of energy, "IDA" and "Pingala" are, on both sides of the spine. These two channels are the most active in most people, while "Shushumna" stagnant.

      
    The seven basic chakras of the body at high speed from healthy individuals, but slow spin in times of sickness or age. When the body is in a harmonious balance, the chakra remains partially open. Chakras are closed does not receive power for a variety of diseases.

      
    The first base chakra, "Muladhara", located at the base of the spine in the coccyx. The vital energy, which is the heart of a strong and healthy immune system, is stored in this chakra. It 's impossible for a sick, old or even die before exhausting its reserves of vital energy. The same will to live is controlled by Muladhara. It 'also responsible for the bones and joints, teeth, nails, the urogenital tract and colon. The first symptoms of a malfunctioning Muladhara are unreasonable fear, helplessness, insecurity and confidence in the future, legs and foot problems, and intestinal disorders.

      
    The interrupted activity of the Muladhara chakra causes lack of energy, digestive problems, diseases of the bones and the spine, and nervousness among others.The second chakra, "Svadhistana" is at the level of the sacred, three or four fingers below the navel. This chakra regulates the pelvis, kidney and sexual functions. We feel other peoples emotions through this chakra. The symptoms of a malfunctioning "Svadhistana" have kidney problems, cystitis and arthritis.

      
    The third chakra, "Manipura" is located in the solar plexus. This chakra is the center for the storage and distribution of energy generated by digestion and respiration. It is responsible for the vision, the gastrointestinal system, system liver, gallbladder, pancreas and nervous. Symptoms of a stagnant "Manipura" are as follows: major and constant worrying, as well as disorders of the stomach, liver and nerve.

      
    The fourth chakra, "Anahata", also the heart chakra is located in the chest area. We generate and receive love through this chakra. E 'for the heart, lungs, bronchi, hands and arms. Symptoms of depression and stagnation are cardiovascular imbalances.

      
    The fifth chakra, "Vishuddha" is at the level of the throat and is the center of analytical skills and logic. This chakra supports the organs of the skin of the hearing, together with the trachea and lungs. The symptoms are lack of emotional stability, disorders of the neck, climb the throat for communication difficulties, and the esophagus and thyroid problems.

      
    The sixth chakra, "Adjna," between the eyebrows and is called the "third eye". Here is the throne for the human brain. "Adjna" circulates energy in the head and the pituitary gland and is responsible for determining our harmonious development. If a person of "third eye" is not working properly, there may be a decrease in mental capacity, headaches and migraines, earaches, olfactory disorders and mental disorders.

      
    The seventh chakra "Sahasrara", is located in the upper part of the head and provides the upper part, where the individual energy vibrates with the highest frequency. E 'considered a spiritual center and the entrance to the body for cosmic energy. A stagnant "Sahasrara" can lead to a decrease or lack of inner wisdom, as well as the lack of basic intuition.

      
    With this basic understanding of the first seven chakras, we can answer the question. "How can we use this information to identify the causes of our difficulties and problems and with the help of Oriental medicine, learn the functions of the chakras control you same "

      
    From the point of view of Oriental medicine, our health depends on the distribution of information and awareness-raising our energy field. Lack of energy will inevitably lead to complaints. After the Tibetan medicine, the only difference between youth and age, and between patients and healthy is the difference in the speed of the vortex energy centers of the chakras. When these different speeds are in equilibrium, the old will rejuvenate and heal the sick. Therefore, the best way to preserve and restore our health, youth and vigor and to achieve a balanced movement of the energy centers.

      
    The easiest way to balance the chakras is through a series of physical exercises. Yannis called these exercises not only that, but the rituals. These rituals allow the human body to shape its centers of energy to an ideal level of function. The seven rites, one for each chakra, must work together every morning, and if not done possible in the evening. Skip imbalance rituals distribution of energy and thus to obtain the best results, do not miss as one day a week. The daily rituals chakras are not only needed for the revitalization of the body, but also for success in every aspect of life. "If you learn to transform your energy, it will be even happier," said Yannis.

      
    To learn these rituals (which the lives of many people around the world turns), they see it in action is far more effective than trying to follow the written descriptions and diagrams. A DVD, available from helix 7 contains Inc. (www.FeelingOfHappiness.com), the recent demonstration of these rituals.

      
    Another method of maintaining the chakras balanced and in their optimal state of semi-open is meditation. Methods of meditation are universal human experience, accumulated over the centuries by many different cultures and demonstrated their value to the achievement of peace, clarity, serenity and overcome despair. People who meditate regularly are generally quieter, safer, happier and more productive people. They are more effective in their daily lives, because they have their potential and mental and physical abilities and skills to be able to use it properly. Too often we fail people, the great hidden forces that have not yet awakened to realize in our body. We must learn to live again and use them. This can only be achieved through meditation. Oriental men of wisdom, meditation, the thought of a vital necessity, stumbled upon this discovery more than 1000 years. They have learned to influence their internal organs and regulate their metabolism with the power of their mind. Meditation is the mind what exercise is to the body, the mental and physical abilities can be developed. Just as in athletics, it is important for an individual, his body for training, is for an individual to form his mind through meditation important.

      
    The best time for meditation is early in the morning, preferably at dawn. Do not meditate when you are sad, serious, desperate or sick because these intense emotional distractions and physiology of an enlightened attitude impossible. For effective meditation, it is preferable for the undisturbed tranquility of a quiet, clean room with flowers, or the soothing sounds of nature to organize - near a lake, river, waterfall, woods or fields. Many different mental practices that fall original historical traditions, under the general title of "meditation." Can this way of spiritual development is. To get the emotional and intellectual, and may also be coordinated with movements determined Meditation can be structured or unstructured, Dr. Wayne W. Dyer writes in his book Real Magic, "The process of meditation is nothing more than quietly go in and find out that a major component learns to meditate ... even learn to live instead of just talking ..."
