Spiritual energy travels along the spinal pathway. Therein lays the secret art and science that contains the “Keys of Life” to bring personal well-being and enlightenment (peace) translated into a collective enlightenment or Unity Consciousness.

The chakras are the veils that cloak the soul. As transducers of spiritual energy, the chakras generate etheric matter that the Soul uses to weave reality and to achieve enlightenment. Each chakra is a level or eye of consciousness in how we perceive, live and move in the world and the spine is the channel to each gateway (chakra) of progress. Each is an expression of varying levels of love and wisdom.

On an etheric level the seven chakras are seen as spinning wheels of light with each situated in a vertical alignment from the base of the spine to the top of the head. From the front and back of the body the chakras look like funnels as they receive and assimilate Kosmic energy currents for output of expression of the personality.The energetic ascent of primal life force originating at the base of the spine, or the descent of heavenly energies at the crown flows in a double helix configuration, that of a DNA-molecule, which contains the genetic code of life. Such circulation between the crown and the base chakra consummates Spirit with matter, or unites lower consciousness with that of the Soul.

Each of the seven centers relates to the health of the body and correlates to one of the seven endocrine glands. The endocrines are glands that secrete hormones (chemical substances) directly into the blood stream that affects our states of being. While DNA contains the genetic code of life and the blood carries its blueprint, the endocrine system acts as a conduit for spiritual information. The energetic composition of the human body and the endocrines (hormones of life) translates the frequency or vibration of the encoded via the language of Light.

This is important because as a conduit between interdimensional realms, the proper functioning of the endocrines relates to our development and progress and thus, assists in closing the gaps in consciousness. Imagine seven steps that compose a ladder and that between each step is a gap – a gap in consciousness. Each gap in consciousness is closed by reaching to the next successive step. The higher step encompasses all those steps below it and thus integrated, creates the whole ladder as a connective bridge of understanding from one level of perception to another. The seven chakras are like steps in connecting the seven eyes of consciousness and the seven attributes of heart into greater Love and Wisdom-Unity Consciousness.

Emotional purification of the chakras from disharmonious energy blocks (resistance to flow) enables them to open and flow freely. Clearing resistance raises our vibrations to higher levels attuning us to the higher stream of Unity consciousness. Integrating any misalignments between masculine and feminine spiritual energies is necessary in order to harmoniously express the creative use of generative force.

We can purify the chakras through vibration using the voice by toning, chanting, Tibetan Singing bowls, Crystal bowls, and tuning forks for their ability to balance energies within the body using sound vibration. Clearing the chakras through meditative mudras is also effective as are many different energy healing modalities.

Uniting of heaven and Earth through consciousness into the One Life, is called the “Opus”- The Great Work.

Does this Sound Familiar?

After several rounds of eating your favorite dessert question, “What is causing this to happen’ & “Why do I want this right now?” Pondering these questions en route to the fridge, pantry, special drawer, or better, as you’re entertaining it – will surprise you to learn your answers to these questions.

The key to releasing cravings is to recognize them as they arise. Attention placed on the current emotional state automatically sets up an interruption of the pattern. The interruption is “noticing” the craving. Craving a particular food is an indication that your body already has too much of it. It indicates imbalance in the body, which can lead to food allergy. Sugar, caffeine, carbohydrates, meat, and dairy all affect mood and only lead to health problems in the end so, try not to indulge in negative cravings, as they will always spiral out of control.

Cravings come from the unconscious. They’re patterns that we’re used to and do not think much about because they provide comfort. We all have a need for immediate satisfaction, to seek after the pleasure principle, whose innate response urges us to insulate our true feelings with something – whether with food, drugs, alcohol, sex, shopping, gambling, gaming, or whatever. Whatever one’s delight, it is meant to dissipate physical tension, at least temporarily to soften the edges.

Cravings offer a positive side, too. It’s the way the body sends us messages to maintain balance, to refuel our energy or lift our moods. For instance, the body may require Vitamin C to help heal a cold. Desiring an orange or citrus would be a result of a good craving and positive habit to reach for an orange. Body wisdom is working by sending us messages to maintain balance. Yet, if we ignore these messages for any prolonged period to find equilibrium, the more we get out of control and suffer the negative repercussions of our faulty habits and unresolved emotional cravings.

Learning to listen to the needs of the body is essential, as are the responses we get from eating food that causes symptoms (gas, indigestion, acid reflux, nausea, diarrhea, constipation, skin problems, bad breath, headaches, achy joints, etc). So, whenever the body is craving something, pause for a moment and wonder, “What’s really going on here?” “Is this craving coming from my body or my emotions?”

When we find ourselves impulsively reaching for some food, take a moment to slow down, breathe, and reevaluate the situation and consider what your heart and Soul are really asking for. Remember that the pause alone sets up an interruption to the behavior to overcome the craving. The choice is yours. We may choose to honor our bodies needs with Love or to hop onto the vicious cycle of negative pattern repetition where dissatisfaction, self-loathing, and low esteem await claim.

The point of focus is to look for food imbalances, emotional deficits and behaviors in your life that are often the underlying cause of cravings. Many times what we think are emotional cravings are cravings caused by nutritional imbalances that affect emotion, and vice-versa.
