The Chakra Breathing
Mantra and Color for Chakra Breathing Practice.
With the presence of chakras in the body, it is the convergence of energy, emotions, and physical body. With these chakras, our consciousness gets projected through these wheels, and this largely determines what we experience in reality. By working intensely on these chakras, we can deeply open all the blockages. This technique is active and uses deep breathing with body movement. This breathing is accompanied by musical sounds to open and bring awareness to the body and mind. As we breathe deeply in Chakra, it helps you to connect your body and charge the Chakras with energy.
