First recognized in the ancient traditions of eastern medicine, the chakras are understood to be energy centers of the body. More and more health professionals throughout the world are finding knowledge of the chakra system to be useful in healing work. The following diagram indicates the approximate location of the chakras.

In addition to the seven major chakras, there are lesser ones in the hands, feet and joints.One western physician, Dr. Brugh Joy, developed a series of moves to connect and balance these centers so that energy can flow freely throughout the body. We have adapted this sequence, called the Chakra Connection, and find it to be a very calming and energizing process.
