What are Chakras and How are They Connected to Essential Oils?

What are Chakras?

The word chakra means "wheel" in Sanskrit, and its origin are based strongly within Hinduism. There are 7 main chakras that are located in alignment with the spine - Root, Sacral, Solar Plexus, Heart, Throat, Third Eye and Crown. Each of these 7 chakras are also referred to as energy centres that are tied to our body's physical or emotional well-being. When one or more of the chakra is blocked, it will result in an imbalance that can be manifested as physical or emotional illness.
