From a healer standpoint most of our diseases are the result of imbalance. We almost never pay attention to our chakras however, they play an important roles in our health. We indulges on our chakra system conditions that are too taxing to some of the chakras to they get imbalanced over the year, the accumulated imbalances cause psychological problems or illnesses, did you know that a torn solar plexus chakra can turn into a physical cancer within 2 years ?
A weakened solar plexus chakra can also cause illness in the liver.

Poor lifestyle habits such as the use of recreational drugs (marijuana, cannabis, cocaine, LSD) are very taxing to the energy system. Have you heard of etheric mucus, this is what you end up with after the use of drugs and it can take days and weeks to clean up the mess. Another thing also taxing to our energy system and this one is sometimes invisible, is when you have sexual intercourse with someone having stuck emotions on the form of pain in the body, during the sexual intercourse you may download those stuck emotions and pains inside of you because during the sex act, there is strong energetic communication at the chakra levels.

In fact many relationship, dating and sex life problems are the results of chakras imbalance , if your wife or girlfriend has imbalance in her solar plexus and sacral chakras and depending of her predisposition your partner will be dampening her sexual power and will be negatively aggressive in term of pride, yes, you name it, you have a drama queen.

Stephane Hemon from IdeaGasms.com® has put together an effective set of seven meditations to balance and energize the seven major chakras. He wants us to achieve what the shamans call a rainbow body , a body free of stress, diseases and dark spots in the auric and energetic field and cleansing of the seven major chakras is the first part to achieve that, once it is done and you achieved health and perfect psychogical balance you can move on to the next etheric chakras (Stephane Hemon has also meditations for that).

The seven primary meditations (total recording time:3 hours 17 min) which last between 20 minutes for the shortest to 36 minutes for the longest use hypnosis and shamanic symbolism in the script, the delivery and the language is very hypnotic some of the meditations put me in deep trance and make my body vibrate.

The essential perspective of the shaman is:
1. Everything is alive. Everything has spirit and awareness.
2.Energy and matter are the same. Everything is vibration.Everything that exists is an energy system within a greater energy system.
3.Everything that exists is connected to everything else in a web of energy or life.
4. Unseen/inner/spiritual reality affects visible reality.

In one of the meditation you will be asked to be a bird (Generally represent shamanic flight, rebirth or healing. Each bird having its own message) in another meditation you will have to be the moon , the sun and call your animal totems.

Stephane recommends that you ask someone to check your chakra with a pendulum for imbalance/balance doing it yourself may give you biased data. The meditations come with an ebook with all the necessary instruction.

Below is excerpt of Stephane Hemon newsletter, he talks about the chakra

Chakra number one is what keeps you grounded.  It is also the
primary energy that Shamans work with.  A Shaman is mostly a
master of the First Chakra - the energies of Mother Earth.

This is the Chakra that draws in the energies and minerals of
Earth and helps to feed everything in your body that is HARD,

such as your bones, your hair, your teeth, and your nails. It
will also draw in lots of Yang (masculine) energy such as courage,
concentration, the desire to take good care of your own body,
determination, and other vital energies that drive us to handle
life's fundamentals such as money and our home.

It gives us what Shaman's refer to as a strong "Spiritual Backbone"
or "Spiritual Warrior" energy.

You can seriously spend an entire lifetime learning about the
First Chakra or "Root Chakra", and that's exactly what Shamans
do.

The Heart Chakra, on the other hand, mostly draws in energy
from Water (and other people).  The bodies of water that are
outside of you actually MIRROR the bodies of water that are
INSIDE of you.

The Lakes, Rivers and Streams that surround you are a reflection
of the Lakes (vital organs) Rivers (arteries) and Streams (veins)
that are inside of you.

We ARE the Earth, you see?

The imbalances that we have today are largely a reflection of
the imbalances of Earth.  For example, as we pollute the Waters
that are outside of us, we also pollute the Waters that are
inside of us.

We need the Earth to survive... Did you know that when astronauts
go into outer space, they actually stop producing Red Blood
Cells?

The First Chakra is known as the RED Chakra, and since the astronauts
are too far away from the Earth, they aren't properly GROUNDED.


They aren't absorbing the Earth's minerals that they need to
survive, so they cannot stay in outer space for very long.

This occurs no matter what they eat.

Every human being has a unique footprint... why would that be
unless Mother Earth wasn't keeping track of you?

Most people do not realize how important it is to simply walk
around barefoot once and a while... to connect with Mother Nature.

Now, the Heart Chakra will amplify your own emotions, but it
also draws in energies and emotions from other people.  And
depending on how the people in your life are feeling, this will
affect you in ways that most humans aren't even aware of.

For example, let's say you go to a bar and bring a new girl
home for some good old-fashioned booty call.  And let's say
that this girl has a lot of negativity in her Heart such as
anger, sadness, or depression.

You probably haven't noticed her negativity because she doesn't
know you well enough to show you this part of herself...

Well, the act of lovemaking, and especially ORGASMS will open
your Chakras very wide, and she will actually "download" her
negative energy inside of you.

You see, human beings don't just communicate verbally and with

body language, but we also communicate ENERGETICALLY.  Our energies
meld, ESPECIALLY during the act of lovemaking.

If you sleep around with a lot of partners, don't be surprised
when you start to feel emotionally unbalanced and chaotic.


Chakra Cleansing is especially important for those of you living
the "player" lifestyle.

Even if you just go to a bar and go home alone, the intense
loud music and the mixing of energies with all of those strange,
drunken people is very taxing on your system.

Make sure you Chakra Cleanse within 24 hours because otherwise
this "energy mucus" or what I like to call "Etheric Dragon Butter"
will start to settle in, become your own, and start causing
"dis-ease" and other imbalances.  This is the primary reason
why "partying" ages you, whether you drink or not.

Speaking of drinking, alcohol has some very interesting effects
on the Heart Chakra!

When some people drink, they become angry and violent.  So the
alcohol causes them to close their Heart Chakra - it "hardens"
them.  This is because the alcohol BRINGS TO THE SURFACE the
repressed negativity that is already within them.

On the other hand, when other people drink, they turn into affectionate,
cuddly little love machines.  It's because their Heart Chakra
OPENS WIDE.  The alcohol brings out the REPRESSED LOVE that
is within them.

The problem is that although they have temporarily accessed
their Heart Chakra, they will often act pretty stupidly and
irresponsibly because they've opened their Heart but haven't
taken care of the deeper emotional imbalances to begin with.

Many ancient traditions teach us that our "Truth" is found in
the Heart.  This is why we often say that alcohol acts like
a "Truth Serum".  It's an unhealthy shortcut for temporarily
(and prematurely) opening the Heart.

And so this is what I suspect is going on with you.  You have
to get your first three Chakras handled BEFORE opening the Heart,
otherwise you will act inappropriately and/or shut it back down
a few hours later.

The next Chakra after the Heart is the Throat Chakra or "Communication
Chakra".  Can you imagine what might happen if I were to open
a clients' Communication Chakra without first opening their
Heart Chakra?

They might start to communicate smoothly, but since the Heart
is still closed, the stuff that actually comes out of their
mouth will be a bunch of crap!

I'm sure you all know someone who has a "sharp tongue".  They
can cut anyone down and make them feel terrible.

Ghita had a father who was like that.  One of the best communicators
I've ever seen - well educated, sharp, witty, funny, cocky,
sarcatic, clever... and MEAN.

There is an ecology, a syntax, an order and a sequence to everything
in the universe including within your Self.

The Chakras are "numbered" for a reason.  Don't go too high
too quickly because you can seriously screw yourself up.  My
Chakra program is not a toy.
