Reiki Ease

Reiki is a wonderful tool for healing Chakras and restoring energy in others. Often these chakras get blocked or have too much energy moving through them. Either way Reiki can heal what needs to be healed.
Chakras are energy channels or vortexes that are located in the body in many different places. The main chakras are the seven chakras that run up and down the spine. Often I use a pendulum to let me know which chakra is out of balance. At times the pendulum goes in the opposite direction telling me that there may be too much energy in that particular chakra.
The bottom chakra is the Muladhara chakra is located at the bottom of the spine is often associated with being grounded, stability and our ancestors. The stone that is sometimes used is the garnet, ruby, or hematite. Often I lay a stone on or around the chakra area while I do Reiki.
You can tell if your first chakra is out of balance if you have a feeling of not having a sturdy foundation in your life, too little energy to do anything, or not having a connection with mother earth. The dark side of this chakra is that you feel overprotective, become a survivalist to the point that you can be obsessed with the basic needs of life. Hording would be a sign that your first chakra is out of balance. Excess fear is also a trait of an unbalanced first chakra.
A balanced chakra you trust life and feel secure in your sense of being. You have plenty of vigor coming from mother earth and have a sense of peace, a sense of being glad to be alive and meet each day with a calm reassurance that you are part of a continuation with all your ancestors that life continues and will continue into the future.
