The Seven Chakras of Kundalini Energy

Chakras relate to our Kundalini which in turn is an exemplification of the immense latent potentials within us. There are many means of tapping these hidden potentials (Mantra repetition, Gemstones, yoga asanas, pranayamas, meditation, etc.) All the creations are first conceived in our thoughts and hence our thoughts are seen as the most potent means to tap into our innate potentials. The study of each Chakra in context with certain Yoga concepts can help us understand our potentials and motivations in life.

There are 7 chakras and activation areas associated with them - Muladhara Chakra (Root), Svadhishthana Chakra (Sacral), Manipura Chakra (Solar Plexus), Anahata Chakra (Heart), Vishuddha Chakra (Throat), Ajna Chakra (Third Eye), and Sahasrara (Crown of Head).

Each Chakra is associated with different emotions, which in turn can also be seen as the categories of our Potentials or Motivations; hence even as the categories of our thoughts.
