Seven Colorful Points

Chakra is a Sanskrit word for ‘wheel or life force center.’ A Chakra is an energy vortex within each of us that controls our physical, mental, spiritual and emotional well-being. There are seven main points and they are located along the spinal column up to the top of the head. Each chakra point is associated with a specific color and correlates to certain areas of the body.

Starting at the base of the spine, the seven chakras are:

1. Root (red), C, Grounding factor, sexual activity
2. Navel (orange), D, Physical activity and immune system
3. Solar Plexus (yellow), E, creative expression, glandular system
4. Heart (green), F, love, compassion, acceptance, circulatory system
5. Throat (blue), G, communication, understanding, thyroid
6. Third Eye/Brow (indigo), A, spiritual vision, psychic energy, pituitary
7. Crown of Head (violet), B, portal to higher spiritual consciousness

The chakra colors are the same as the colors of a rainbow, encompassing our entire perceptual field. Each chakra radiates at a frequency that corresponds to the notes of the musical octave. Each chakra spins at the rate of balanced energy in those bodily areas that it corresponds to.

Learning to eat healthy and exercise, give love to self and others, forgiving all, applying the lessons of your soul’s journey and being more aware will aid in balancing your Chakras. Chakras that are out of balance can cause sickness, dis-ease, anger, depression, etc.

A balanced chakra system provides for the individual to have a happy, healthy and fulfilling life experience.

So, on that note, the quote of the day is:

“May the light from within spring forward and radiate out towards all that you love.” tc

Leading Stance

Many of us find ourselves in leadership roles. It may be because we have had children, were promoted at work or contributed skills in a club that placed us in front of others. Some people are born with strong leadership abilities. They naturally gravitate to the top of everything that they do.

The position of guiding others is one that takes a lot of responsibility, if it is done in a healthy manner. The leader must learn to follow their true vision and inner convictions. They must articulate to others what needs to be accomplished. They must have the courage to speak the truth at all times. Leaders need to be positive with their guidance. They must emit love and be willing to praise others.

So, on that note, the quote of the day is:

“Every great leader exhibited strength from within, not dominion over.” tc
