Thanks! The word Chakra is a Sanscrit word meaning " Energy Conducting wheel " They are energy centers in the body, located actually all over the body, but there are 7 main chakras in the body, as well as in each hand and each foot. The chakras are: Base Chakra located at the base of the spine Spleen Chakra located an inch below the naval Solar Plexus Chakra located at the solar plexus Heart Chakra located in the center of the chest Throat Chakra located in the throat area Third Eye Chakra located mid point of the forhead Crown Chakra located about an inch above your head. These energy centers are not visiable as they are energy. Yet they are connected via a tube called the " Shushumna " that if drawn would resemble the spinal column. The chakras each represent different elements in our physical, mental and spiritual well-being. There is so very much more I could add here, but I think I covered enough to at least give you some understanding. I hope this helps.
