WHAT ARE THE CHAKRAS / RESTORE THE CHAKRAS
Chakras are transduction points, energy centers where life energy from the higher planes begins to become more dense, becoming the acupuncture points and meridians, and eventually transduces into the density of the physical body. Often, practitioners of subtle energy work can detect chakra imbalances before they manifest themselves in the physical body. The physical, emotional and energy bodies are all interrelated due to a feedback loop that occurs with the energy of the chakras. The physical body, as well as the energy bodies, interface through the chakras and vice versa.
An imbalance in one chakra, for example, can later manifest itself as an imbalance in the physical body. It is possible, for example due to a traumatic injury, that both the physical body and the chakras are simultaneously out of balance. Physical healing occurs much more rapidly when the energetic anatomy, particularly in the chakras, is aligned after injury. Thus, for example, an imbalance in a certain part of the body can be harmonized by resonating the associated chakra with the voice or with various energy practices, or with a guided meditation to rebalance the chakras.

THE MAIN SEVEN CHAKRAS AND THEIR MEANINGS
First Chakra – The Root Chakra (Muladhara)
It is located at the base of the spinal column, between the anus and the perineum, and is involved in the physical process of elimination by affecting the organs that perform this function. The primary needs of the individual, relating to survival and grounding on a physical level, fall within the sphere of influence of the first chakra.
Second Chakra – Sacral (Svadhishthana)
Located about three inches below the navel, it is associated with sexual energy, the reproductive organs, and much of the life force. The second chakra indicates our emotional part, our fears, what scares us, what paralyzes us. The rebalancing of this chakra eliminates the oldest and deepest fears, inner tensions and increases self-confidence and in others.
Third Chakra – The Solar Plexus (Manipura)
The third chakra is located just above the navel. Its energy is associated with digestion and digestive organs, as well as power and self-control. In fact, its most important function is linked to personal affirmation and the exercise of individual power over society and the environment in general. It therefore indicates the realization of the person, how feasible the person sees his desire for life, how much he wants and wishes to fight for himself, how much he loves himself.
Fourth Chakra – The Heart Chakra (Anahata)
The heart chakra is located in the center of the chest between the nipples. On a physical level, it works with the lungs and heart. On an emotional level, it works with the energy of compassion and love. Furthermore, the fourth chakra is the center of the entire chakra energy system; in fact, it connects the three lower centers, of a physical and emotional nature, linked to the earth, with the three higher ones, more mental and spiritual, linked to the sky. It is through the harmonious activity of this chakra that people are able to empathize with all that exists, and to grasp its beauty and harmony, expressing pure and unconditional love.
Fifth Chakra – The throat chakra ( Vishuddha )
The throat chakra, located at the base of the neck, is associated with the process of communication, speech and hearing. The ears are also linked to this chakra, as is obviously the vocal apparatus. It is the center of the human capacity to express, communicate and be inspired; creativity understood in a subtle sense, the relationship with our feelings. It is the exchange: giving and receiving. We can only express what we have in ourselves and one of the purposes of the fifth chakra is precisely to give us some inner space, which allows us to reflect on our thoughts and behaviors.
Sixth Chakra – The Third Eye ( Ajna )
The sixth chakra is located between the eyebrows, in the center of the forehead, in the position of the third eye. This chakra is connected to the pituitary gland, the control of the hormone system and the cerebellum. It is linked to the capacity and to the psycho-spiritual balance, to the correct perception of the Self on an energetic level that we can define as intuitive, sensitive, therefore beyond the mind.
Seventh Chakra – The Crown Chakra (Sahsrara)
The seventh chakra is connected to the center of the crown of the head and points upwards. It is connected with the brain and the pineal gland. Here we are connected with the sphere of being which includes all unmanifested forms and characteristics. From this place we once started our journey to life and always here we experience oneness with our original divine principle of which we are all a part. This is where our personal energy field becomes one with the universe.
There are seven main chakras, seven rotating spheres of energy, located centrally in the front and back of the body:

REBALANCING THE CHAKRAS WITH THE VOICE AND MEDITATION
A very interesting aspect of the vocal sound that cymatics researches (to learn more about what climate is click here made visible is that whenever sound encounters a membrane, a pattern is imprinted on the surface of the membrane.
Therefore, when we sing it is actually as if we are communicating with our cells and not just our cells but those of everyone in close proximity to us. In fact, the human voice has the power to promote healing in ourselves and others and to transform thoughts and feelings into words and sounds to inspire others.
In my opinion, as well as those of many other masters of sound, vowels can be considered one of the primordial sounds of manifestation. And they are considered sacred in many traditions. However, since they are found in every language on the planet, it is impossible to link them to any tradition. The vocal sounds are therefore, I dare say, the most effective method to generate resonance in our etheric body and physical and thus enter into resonance with the energy centers > /strong>and cleanse the chakras.
In both Eastern and Western schools of worship, the power and sacredness of vowels have been known for thousands of years.
Before starting to resonate the chakras with the voice, it is important to sit upright, with a stable posture, back straight, neck aligned and muscles completely relaxed. From this position it is essential to concentrate on your breath, letting it flow as it is and taking a deep diaphragmatic breath every time you prepare to make a sound.
Many different methods can be used to rebalance the chakras with vocal meditation, here I recommend one which consists in making the root chakra resonate with the C note, increasing the note per note as on the piano:
- Note C for the 1st chakra – Vowel sound U closed
- Note D for the 2nd chakra – Vowel sound U open
- Notes me for the 3rd chakra – Voice Sound O
- Note F for the 4th chakra – Vowel sound A
- Note G for the 5th chakra – Vowel sound E
- Note A for the 6th chakra – Voice Sound I
- Note Si for the 7th chakra – Sound Mmm
Here you can listen and practice a guided meditation to rebalance the chakras with the voice:
