The chakras are energy centers described in yoga and tantra traditions. The best-known system names seven, running from the base of the spine to the crown of the head. Each one is linked to parts of the body, emotions and areas of life.
These guides explain each chakra in turn. They cover how to tell when one feels blocked and which practices, like breathwork, movement and meditation, are used to bring it back into balance.
Start with the 7 chakras for the full map. Then learn how to identify blocked chakras or begin with the root chakra.
