Chakra is the sanskrit word meaning ‘wheel of light’. They are the energy centres of the etheric body, which feeds and protects the physical body. They lie along the knave of the spine and are spinning at speed. Traditionally there are seven chakras; each having its own purpose, association and connection. They are linked too to the seven colours of the rainbow.

The Chakras vibrate at different frequencies in order to maintain and balance good health within the major organs. When they are healthy and in balance you are too.
Each Chakra will resonate to a sound frequency, therefore can also be put back into balance with music. They appear to be stimulated or relaxed by certain tones; how often are you moved by a certain piece of music or certain chords only at certain time of your life.
