Chakras

I'm going to begin a short (8 Post) series on Chakras. Knowing about Chakras is a key component to massively increasing your chi flow and ammount of chi energy you can utalize and have control of. It is also important in identifying why you may be having problems with your chi. There is no one word that explains what a chakra is. There are however a lot of lengthy explainations out there. Two that seem to fit best are "pools of energy" and "gateways for energy to pass through". Either way, you have to open your chakras in order to enhance your chi flow. Each chakra has things it controls both mentally and physically. If the chakra is very open these parts of your mental and physical health will also tend to be good. If the chakra is very closed they tend to be not so good. More importantly though, there are certain emotional problems that tend to close up your chakras. Each chakra has certain emotional problems that it reacts to specifically. Knowing what these are can help you to make sure you keep these problems out of your life and help keep you chakras open. There are 7 main chakras, though some teach that there are dozens of lesser chakras located throughout your body. The 7 main chakras are located up and down your spine in order from the bottom near your groin, up to the tip of your head. Each chakra also corrosponds to certain chi skills that you need the chakra open to be able to better perform. In the next 7 parts of this series I will touch on each of the 7 chakras.
