 Scott will show you how to rebalance and realign your client’s energy systems, chakras, to balance the body and mind.

What are the chakra systems? The Chakras are part of esoteric ideas and concepts about physiology and psychic centers that emerged across Indian traditions.[22][28] The belief that human life simultaneously exists in two parallel dimensions, one “physical body” (sthula sarira) and the other “psychological, emotional, mind, non-physical” is called the “subtle body” (sukshma sarira).[29][note 1] This subtle body is energy, while the physical body is mass. The psyche or mind plane corresponds to and interacts with the body plane, and the belief holds that the body and the mind mutually affect each other.[5] The subtle body consists of nadi (energy channels) connected by nodes of psychic energy called chakra.[3] The belief grew into extensive elaboration, with some suggesting 88,000 chakras throughout the subtle body. The number of major chakras varies between traditions but typically ranges between four and seven.[3][4] Nyingmapa Vajrayana Buddhist teachings mention eight chakras, and there is a complete yogic system for each of them.

The important chakras are stated in Hindu and Buddhist texts to be arranged in a column along the spinal cord, from its base to the top of the head, connected by vertical channels.[5][6] The tantric traditions sought to master them, awaken and energize them through various breathing exercises or

with the assistance of a teacher. These chakras were also symbolically mapped to specific human physiological capacity, seed syllables (bija), sounds, subtle elements (tanmatra), and in some cases, deities, colors, and other motifs.[3][5][31]

Belief in the chakra system of Hinduism and Buddhism differs from the historic Chinese system of meridians in acupuncture.[6] Unlike the latter, the chakra relates to the subtle body, wherein it has a position but no definite nervous node or precise physical connection. The tantric systems envision it as continually present, highly relevant, and a means to psychic and emotional energy. It is useful in yogic rituals and meditative discovery of radiant inner energy (prana flows) and mind-body connections.[6][32] The meditation is aided by extensive symbology, mantras, diagrams, and models (deity and mandala). The practitioner proceeds step by step from perceptible models to increasingly abstract models where deity and external mandala are abandoned, and inner self and internal mandalas are awakened.[33][34]

These ideas are not unique to Hindu and Buddhist traditions. Similar and overlapping concepts emerged in other cultures in the East and the West, and these are variously called by other names such as subtle body, spirit body, esoteric anatomy, sidereal body, and etheric body.[35][36][30] According to Geoffrey Samuel and Jay Johnston, professors of religious studies known for their studies on Yoga and esoteric traditions:

Ideas and practices involving so-called ‘subtle bodies’ have existed for many centuries in many parts of the world. (…) Virtually all human cultures known to us have some kind of concept of mind, spirit, or soul as distinct from the physical body if only to explain experiences such as sleep and dreaming. (…) An important subset of subtle-body practices found particularly in Indian and Tibetan Tantric traditions and in similar Chinese practices involves the idea of an internal ‘subtle physiology’ of the body (or rather of the body-mind complex) made up of channels through which substances of some kind flow, and points of intersection at which these channels come together. In the Indian tradition, the channels are known as nadi and the points of intersection as cakra.
