Okay so now what...

Step one balance your chakras. How the heck can I balance my chakras? You can balance your chakras by meditation, doing yoga, focus on breathing. I'm still learning but this is the methods I have used. I found cool app that plays harmonious music to focus on. I heard it is helpful to wear the focus color when balancing your chakras. However, my only alone time is sitting on the toilet or in the bath. So I have found it helpful to focus on the color and the area in which I want the energy to go.

Step two opening your chakras. This is where  you get to know the energy of each chakras. When you know the energy you can open it to help you. once you activate the energy and open the chakra you can use this for self healing. I have not approached this step yet I am still focusing on step one.

Step three is chakra healing. This step is used by reiki therapy. I have not even read on this as I do not want to overload my wee brain. so check back for more on this later.  Here is what Dr. Oz says about reiki.
