After exploring each energy center, I share a somatic exercise designed to help you reconnect with and support any chakra that may feel out of balance.  

Balance of the 7 chakras influence feelings of stability, creativity, confidence, love, communication, intuition, and inner connection. By understanding the chakras one by one, you can begin to identify areas of your life where you might be experiencing resistance, imbalance or emotional tension.
