Chakra is Sanskrit for wheel. They are also known as energy centres. There are seven major chakras in the main body. They have associated colours and functions. It is said that if the heart chakra is open, all other chakras will come into alignment with it. Meditation, Prayer, Creativeness and Love are all ways to help open and align the chakras. Surrounding yourself with white light helps to seal them.
