Confused and Fearful

Dear Tina,

I was told that my chakras are completely out of balance, and I need to fix them for my life to go smoothly.  What in the world does this mean, and is it true?

Dear Confused,

Well, let me ask you – do YOU feel out of balance, unstable or less like yourself lately?  If so, then your energy is probably out of balance.  A chakra balancing could be exactly what you need, but only if that type of treatment resonates with you.  No one has more knowledge about what you need then you.  Yes, there are times when you might feel lost and confused and appreciate the advice of others.  If you feel that way, do your best to still tune in to what feels right to you.

A chakra is an energy center – a place where certain frequencies of energy gather.  It is a window between what you are feeling inside and what you are showing and experiencing on the outside.  Sometimes, because of certain beliefs, people or events, this window can get a bit fogged up.  A chakra balancing washes off your window by actually shifting the energy inside and around you.  Practitioners may do this with sound, aromatherapy, visually, or by shifting the energy with their hands.  This will clear up some of that old energy you have absorbed over the years and facilitate your own natural healing process.

Always remember that you are living in order to learn, love and evolve.  If you are out of balance, you will still be learning and evolving.  It just might be a bit easier if your energy was flowing smoothly.  Listen to yourself – always.
