Your Chakras - functions & meanings:

Your body is pure energy, said the ancients, and says modern quantum physics. The ancients found that your being (body) has 7 main
centers called Chakras, which are spinning wheels of energy that are the basis for your emotional and physical health. These are at the heart
of ancient Hindu Ayurvedic Medicine, and ancient Chinese Medicine, which have a cure for every disease known to western medicine and a
successful rate of healing those diseases which is as good or better than western medicine.
