Overall well-being is always available to you, and there's an ancient secret to it. The ancient secret unlocks the most vital, mysterious, and intelligent healing power of the universe. The ancient secret is: you. You are the key to your overall well-being. You have all the elemental forces of the natural world within you, including the power to heal.

You have the capacity to heal while also seeking the expertise, guidance, and wisdom of teachers and trained medical professionals. As you enter your lifelong journey of health and vitality, reach out for support and advice. Tell your doctors and healers what you notice about yourself. Ask questions, and get answers. Work together, and increase your knowledge through experience and study. This book will support you on that quest.

The seven major chakras exist in you and affect you on physical, psychological, and spiritual levels. The chakras are bright, glowing energy centers that control the flow of life-force energy. Sometimes the chakras spin too slowly, sometimes too quickly, and sometimes just right. If they are spinning just right, energy travels freely to your physical, mental, and energetic bodies. This means you are firing on all cylinders. By learning about the chakras and how to balance them, you can live your life with ease, joy, clear-headedness, love, intimacy, health, security, and whatever else your heart desires. You will notice that chakras go in and out of balance, and you can learn from them and heal with them. As you balance the chakras, you become more connected to wisdom, joy, and the force of love and appreciation that connects you to everything. These good feelings go hand-in-hand with good health.

Chakra healing is a type of holistic healing, connecting mind, body, and spirit (or what you may call energy, Source, or God). The experience of chakra healing is colorful, creative, magical, surprising, restorative, and cleansing. It brings you home to who you truly are. If you are overweight, underweight, constipated, chronically tired, insecure, unable to complete tasks, depleted, anxious, and/or bored, these and many other conditions are not who you truly are. Who you truly are is radiant, self-confident, clear-thinking, compassionate, trusting, healthy, fun, and able to create the life you desire. You can shift from the other states into who you truly are as you get to know your chakras.

If you handle too much stress and neglect your body's needs, you become run down and subject to illness. Your body is intelligent and will compensate for deficiencies in various ways, keeping you as healthy as it can, as long as it can. However, you will not sustain mental or physical health long-term if the vital life-force energy doesn't flow through you in a balanced way. You need the chakras to be unblocked for health, youthfulness, joy, and creating the life you truly desire.

This book breaks down the ancient yogic and modern discoveries about the chakras. You will learn various options for balancing and supporting each and every chakra. You will learn how chakras affect you on very practical levels and about their relevance to the Law of Attraction: the law of the universe that explains how you attract what you want in your life. Your health and enjoyment of life is defined by each choice you make throughout the day. Every moment is a moment you can use to support your health.

Even with advances in modern medicine, your participation in your healing process is essential. Drugs and surgery can reduce and eliminate pain, and save your life, but without your cooperation the results may be ineffective or short-term. Patients are noticing that they have to play an active role in their healing process. Interest in yoga, meditation, and the chakra system continues to grow. Many of these practices can go very deep. One of the real benefits of chakra healing is if you want, you can heal deep wounds.

As you read this book, remember that you are unique. The way your physical, psychological, and energetic bodies are interacting with each other right now is unique. As you try out the exercises, go at your own pace. Make a commitment to honor and listen to yourself. You do not have to read this book chapter by chapter. You can jump around to the sections that look interesting to you, and go from there. Have fun. Explore the chakras at your own pace. Follow your intuition. You've already begun.
