chakras

Spiritual energy points

Chakras are energy centers in the body according to Hindu and Buddhist traditions.

The standard system identifies seven chakras aligned along the spine, from the base to the crown of the head, each associated with different qualities—survival, creativity, power, love, expression, intuition, and spiritual connection.

In Western wellness culture, chakras appear in yoga, meditation, and alternative healing: She said my throat chakra was blocked.

The singular is chakra.
