- The word chakra means "wheel" or "disk" in Sanskrit.
- Chakras are wheels of energy within your body, residing in different areas as vortices of energy.
- Each chakra has a unique importance, name, Sanskrit name, location, associated colour, symbol, and distinct roles and attributes.
This column of chakra chambers is often called ‘the rainbow bridge’.

When a Chakra is blocked, energy stagnates leading to misalignment that can manifest as physical, emotional, mental or spiritual issues.
For example, if your root chakra is blocked - affecting your sense of grounding, security, and stability - your solar plexus might overcompensate, leading to perfectionism and a desire for control.
It is also common for multiple chakras to be blocked simultaneously.
