Small Solar Plexus Chakra Necklace in 24k Gold Plated Sterling Silver on 18" Gold Fill Chain, #6724 Chakra is a Sanskrit word that means wheel. Most Eastern traditions describe seven major chakra points, each correlating to a different part of the body. These are where two or more channels of energy cross in your body, forming an energy center. When your energy flow is out of balance or gets blocked, you can become ill. Your chakras become out of alignment and in turn so does your mood, body, health - basically your life. When working on your chakras, start at the Base chakra and work your way up. You want to heal the lower chakra levels before proceeding to work on the higher chakra levels. The three primary chakras below the Heart chakra are mainly related to your physical body and the perceived world around us. The 3 primary chakras above the Heart chakra are spiritual in nature. The Solar Plexus Chakra (Manipura) is the 3rd primary chakra. It's located between the navel and the bottom of the sternum, and regulates the flow of vital energies throughout the body. The great Indian sage Patanjali says that through control of Manipura full knowledge and mastery of the body are achieved.
