Empower your life with chakra balancing
Day 1: The Modern Relevance of Aura and Chakras in Yoga
This session introduces the foundational concepts of the body’s subtle energy system and connects this ancient wisdom to contemporary yoga practice and holistic well-being.
- Session Focus:
- Introduction to Subtle Energy: What are Chakras and Auras?
- Aura: The multi-layered energy field surrounding the body that reflects our physical, mental, and emotional state.
- Chakras: The seven main subtle energy centers aligned along the spine, from the base to the crown of the head.
- Why It Matters Today: Understanding Chakras helps yoga teachers guide students toward holistic health and inner balance. A balanced Chakra system contributes to a bright, vital aura and overall well-being.
- Introduction to Subtle Energy: What are Chakras and Auras?
- Practical Activities:
- Opening Grounding Meditation: A 10-minute guided meditation to bring awareness to the physical body and breath, setting a foundation for exploring the subtle energy body.
- Self-Reflection Journaling: Participants will spend 5 minutes journaling on the questions: “How do I feel physically and emotionally right now?” and “What words would I use to describe my current energy level?”
Day 2: Understanding Energy and the Aura
This session explores the concept of life force energy, the nature of the aura, and how these energy systems influence our daily experiences.
- Session Focus:
- What is Energy?: Energy medicine views life as having a vital energy dimension (biofield). This unseen “life energy” flows through us; when it flows freely, we experience health, but blockages can lead to disease.
- The Human Aura: The aura is a direct reflection of our inner world, including our thoughts and emotions. When our Chakras are in balance, our aura is bright and vital, influencing how we feel and interact with the world.
- Effects on Daily Life: Imbalances in our energy centers can manifest as feelings of fear, insecurity, or a lack of confidence, which are reflected in our aura.
- Practical Activities:
- Sesitizing hands and trying to feel energy in palm chakras
- Energy ball
- Aura Visualization Exercise: A guided meditation where participants visualize their own aura. They will be prompted to notice its color, size, and brightness, without judgment, as a way to practice energetic self-awareness.
Partnered Energy Sensing: In pairs, participants stand a few feet apart and slowly move their hands toward each other to sense the boundary of their partner’s energy field.
Day 3: The Seven Chakras Explained
This session provides a detailed overview of the seven primary Chakras, covering their locations, colors, and their profound impact on our physical, mental, and spiritual health.
- Session Focus:
- Chakra System Overview: The seven Chakras are key energy centers, each associated with specific body parts, psychological characteristics, and aspects of our lives.
- Location, Color, and Influence:
- Muladhara (Root): Base of spine, red; governs survival and grounding.
- Swadhisthana (Sacral): Lower abdomen, orange; governs emotions and creativity.
- Manipura (Solar Plexus): Navel area, yellow; governs personal power and confidence.
- Anahata (Heart): Center of chest, green; governs love and compassion.
- Vishuddha (Throat): Throat area, blue; governs expression and truth.
- Ajna (Third Eye): Between eyebrows, indigo; governs intuition and clarity.
- Sahasrara (Crown): Top of head, purple/white; governs spirituality and connection to the universe.
- Holistic Health Connection: Balanced chakras support physical vitality, emotional stability, mental clarity, and spiritual awareness.
- Practical Activities:
- Chakra Body Mapping: Using a worksheet with an outline of the human body, participants will draw and color the seven Chakras in their correct locations.
- Mantra Chanting: The group will chant the seed mantra for each Chakra (e.g., “LAM” for the Root Chakra) to feel the subtle vibrations in the corresponding physical locations.
- Scanning own chakras practice
Day 4: Practices for Cleaning and Energizing the Chakras
This session is dedicated to practical techniques from traditional yoga used to cleanse, balance, and activate the Chakra system for optimal energy flow.
- Session Focus:
- Asana (Yoga Poses): Specific poses can activate and balance different Chakras. Examples include Mountain Pose for the Root Chakra and Fish Pose for the Throat Chakra.
- Pranayama (Breathing Techniques): Breathing exercises help regulate and clean energy flow. Techniques include Deep Diaphragmatic Breathing for the Root Chakra and Anuloma Viloma for the Heart Chakra.
- Meditation: Focusing the mind on specific Chakras enhances their energy. This can involve visualizing a color, like a red lotus for the Root Chakra, or focusing on a quality, like love and compassion for the Heart Chakra.
- Practical Activities:
Guided Chakra Visualization Meditation: A 15-minute meditation guiding participants to visualize a wheel of light at each Chakra location, cleansing and energizing the center with breath and focus using high vibrational energy transmission
Day 5: Accessing High Vibrational Energies (Siddha Science)
This session introduces advanced concepts of energy work, focusing on how to access and direct divine energy for healing and transformation, as described in Siddha Science.
- Session Focus:
- Siddha Science Explained: An energy system rooted in the principle of Siddha Shakti (transferable divine energy). It is dedicated to promoting health by addressing core energy imbalances.
- Accessing High Vibrational Energies: Siddha Science uses Sankalp (focused intention) to direct divine energy toward a specific goal, like healing or transformation. This aligns with high-vibrational meditation, which uses specific frequencies to elevate consciousness and purify energy fields.
- The Practice of Attunement: Practices range from simple touch healing to structured spiritual disciplines. The ethical foundation is Seva (selfless service), which purifies one’s own energy.
- Practical Activities:
- Siddha Breath Practice: Participants will learn and practice the “Siddha Breath” exercise mentioned in the document.
Sankalp (Focused Intention) Meditation: A guided meditation where each participant formulates a positive intention for healing or growth. They will then use their breath and focus to “send” energy to this intention, practicing the core principle of Sankalp
Day 6: Advanced Chakra Meditation with Higher Energies
This session integrates the knowledge of Chakras with the concept of high vibrational frequencies, guiding participants through a deep meditation for activation and healing.
- Session Focus:
- Frequency-Based Healing: High vibrational meditation uses specific sound, light, or mental frequencies to create harmony through resonance. Each frequency has a unique healing potential attuned to the body’s energy centers.
- Soul-Level Healing: This approach aims to clear blockages at the soul level, addressing the energetic root causes of ailments rather than just the physical symptoms.
- Activating the Chakras with Vibration: By focusing high-vibrational energy or sound on each Chakra, we can clear blockages and restore the natural, healthy vibrational frequency of each center.
- Practical Activities:
- Sound Bath Meditation: Participants lie down comfortably for a sound healing session using tools like tuning forks or crystal bowls (as mentioned under Supportive Tools). The frequencies will be targeted to resonate with each of the seven Chakras.
- High Vibrational Energy Visualization: A guided meditation where participants visualize divine light (or a specific color) flowing down through the Crown Chakra and illuminating each subsequent Chakra, purifying and activating it.
Day 7: Daily Practices for a Balanced and Energized Life
This final session synthesizes the course content into a practical toolkit, empowering participants with daily practices and lifestyle adjustments to maintain Chakra balance for a better life.
