Chakras, a Sanskrit word meaning “wheel,” are said to be spinning energy centers within the body and are mentioned in several ancient Hindi texts, including the Vedas and Upanishads. Though invisible, the chakras are a system that create part of our subtle body, and working with them can help clear energetic blockages and create inner clarity.
