Welcome to the online video course 'The Chakra Workout.' We wish you a fulfilling adventure as you journey into these dynamic portals of energy!

What are the chakras?

Your energy system is made up of various components that each have their own physiology and functions. A primary part of of this system is the chakras. These are vortexes of energy that are localized in the etheric body. They also extend outward through your outerbody field and inward to connect with the more physicalized aspects of the body.

Due to a buildup of stress and restriction, the chakras can become less connected and aligned with the body and personality. In this course you will learn meditative processes to interface with your chakras in a detailed, in-depth manner so that you can feel them, work with them and learn from them.

A (Discerning) Beginner's Mind

We encourage you to enter into this course with an open yet discerning mind. These words are merely here to guide you into a direct experience with yourself, and your inner realm should be the primary source of your information and guidance.

Use the written and video materials as a loose framework to guide you into an expanded experience of yourself. Putting the bulk of your attention on sensations in and around your body is a great way to do that. It will help you bypass our human tendency to mentally assess and arrange incoming information, and instead support you to in-form new possibilities of creation.

Before going further....

These materials build a bridge to expanding dimensions of awareness. In order to be able to integrate new layers of consciousness into your present life, it's important not to skip or rush phases of development. Go through the course in sequence and take your time with each process. This way the gains become anchored in the structure of your functioning reality, and contribute to your physical, emotional and mental health.
