Are Your Chakras Open??

I am not sure how many of you have experienced this...not sure how many of you have been told this...BUT, I have been told I have 'open chakras.' Well, 'why thank you,' is my natural response...however, I have to be honest...though I was raised in an Indian home, in a Hindu household....I don't know what the hell a 'chakra' is.

But I have google...so I googled it. And, WOW, I have open chakras...aren't I neat?!

So here you go...my synopsis of chakras in a nutshell...there are 7 chakras...

Chakras are centers of energy, located on the midline of the body. There are seven of them, and they govern our psychological properties. The chakras located on the lower part of our body are our instinctual side, the highest ones our mental side.

The chakras can have various levels of activity. When they're "open," they're considered operative in a normal fashion.

Ideally, all chakras would contribute to our being. Our instincts would work together with our feelings and thinking. However, this is usually not the case. Some chakras are not open enough (being under-active), and to compensate, other chakras are over-active. The ideal state is where the chakras are balanced. To find out what the state of your chakras is, do the chakra test.

There exist lots of techniques to balance the chakras. Mostly techniques to open chakras are used. It makes no sense to try to make over-active chakras less active, as they are compensating for other chakras. To restore the compensation they'd be over-active again in no time. To stop them from compensating, the chakras they are compensating for must be opened. See the techniques to open 

Okay, so that was a copy and paste situation..only because I do not want to misrepresent information.

But I am fascinated with this...had my first encounter with acupuncture, which is a form of energy points in the body. And am in general interested and intrigued and in belief of energy and connection...

I have open chakras, so I have been told...I don't necessarily feel them, but I do sense them. I do believe in the energy, I believe in the concept, and well, I guess I believe in chakras.
