Chakra means wheel. In yoga this chakra represents the circle of life flowing through all aspects of existence. At the inner core of each of us at the level of our spinal column, there spins 7 wheel like energy centers called Chakras. The concept of chakras has been existent in India since the time of Vedas. When we understand our body as a vehicle of consciousness, chakras become the wheels of life that carry this body about through its trials and transformations. This book will help you integrate this ancient system of chakras with modern medicine to give you sufficient understanding of how this works and why this becomes the key to understanding the cause of several modern day illnesses. Also in todays world where our minds stay disconnected from the planet, heritage or anything spiritual, such an understanding becomes crucial to reclaim our wholeness. Moreover all the chakra books in the past have been written or explained from a religious perspective which can make it unrelatable to most of the millennials. Here I have ventured to explain this completely from the medical perspective utilizing my experiences as a doctor for more than 15 years and currently as a yogini. Why do we face boredom with mundane activities in life? Why is cancer becoming rampant worldwide despite so may advances in technology? Why do we often see people as good and evil? I believe answers to all these questions and more lies in understanding the chakras- one we cannot do without and one whose time has come now. Why only 7 chakras? what is the correlation with number 7. There are many wonderful correlations to number 7 and below are just few of them.
