People everywhere are learning the importance and effectiveness of energy healing , whether they accept that everything is energy or not, because with the rising of people's vibration as a whole, we are moving into a period of heightened awareness, sensitivity and capabilities.

My dream is to see a world where every being is aware, and knows the value of a healthy energetic body, and daily chakra exercises become the norm. These metaphysical chakras help to regulate the physical organs and glands; therefore keeping you healthier physically. They also help to regulate one’s emotions, therefore helping you stay healthier mentally and emotionally. Therefore, the chakras being in a balanced state of being helps bring harmony to your entire being, supporting a truly holistic state of health.

We as a race of people nowadays MUST learn to:
#1 be aware of their chakras existing
#2 begin keeping the 7 major chakras healthy

Keeping the 7 major centers healthy is important because we are actually moving gradually into another dimension of reality and in order to do so, our bodies must reach a higher vibration and frequency~ and this includes awakening 5 other major chakras that we have dormant right now; besides the 7 major chakras we know now.

In order for these five to awaken; the seven that we now are using, must be in a healthy state of being.

A brief summary of the seven major chakras is as follows:
