the word Chakra comes fro mthe sanskrit word meaning wheel. at the core of each of us there are seven wheel like energy centres with many other chakras in various other parts of the body like the hands. they are swirling intersections of vital life forces and each chakra represents an aspect of consciuosness that influences our life. just like Yoga the chakras creates unity and integrates the wholeness of body, mind and spirit. theses wheels of energy receive, assimilate and transmit life force or prana.
