Scent: Amber and Oud

 

Odds are, if you've attended a yoga class, group meditation, or indulged in an hour-long reiki session, your instructor or practitioner most likely spoke about your chakras. In my yoga class, my teacher often brings up the third-eye chakra, located between the brows, saying it's responsible for human intuition and the inner light within us. However, all I can think about is what's for lunch? But what are chakras, really anyway?

​

Literally speaking, the word "chakra" from Sanskrit translates to "wheel" or "disk," but references a spiritual energy center within the human body, of which there are seven along the spine, and through the neck, and the crown of your head.

​

The chakra system originated in India between 1500 and 500 BC in the oldest text called the Vedas. The Vedas are the earliest Sanskrit literary records and the most ancient scriptures of Hinduism. As for the purpose of the seven chakras? "They each correspond to specific organs as well as physical, emotional, psychological, and spiritual states of being and influence all areas of your life, Within these chakras is 'prana,' or the ultimate pure healing energy, that's all around us and within us, to keep us healthy, happy, and vibrant.
