Is it just a traditional part of old Indian medicine, are they points of energy on the metaphysical body? Are there physical explanation for the supposed location of these points? (like glands produce hormones in those specific areas more than others).
Thanks.

I don’t know too much about chakras but I do know that the third eye meditation works. Upon opening the third eye you gain a greater sense of awareness/sight. Third eye opening effects the pineal gland, a part of the brain that is rarely used. Anyone who said it’s b/s are full of crap, I bet they haven’t even worked on their chakras.

After the meditation a sort massaging motion occurs within the middle of your forehead, you can actually feel something going on within you forehead. At times it can cause minor headaches as well. Usually this occurs with beginners.

I have been feeling nauseated lately and I know it is connected to my emotional state at the moment because the nausea comes after I have been thinking about things that are going on in my life. Seeing the feeling is in the pit of my stomach I thought about the solar plexus chakra (did a coarse in energetic healing a long time ago). I have forgotton what the associations are here…. can anyone remind me.
And solutions to clearing this up.
Also feeling more vulnerable than usual

Third chakra: Located at the solar plexus just below the diaphragm and connected with issues of interpersonal power and authenticity. When this chakra is relatively closed, you may find it difficult to trust (either yourself or others), to set interpersonal boundaries, or to express or even acknowledge your own anger or vulnerability. As it opens, you may experience a release of anger or shame and a deepening and expansion of your breath, accompanied by feelings of personal power and vitality.

I think it’s a "Chakra" it has 7 different stones. Please don’t refer me to a website, I don’t get the information I need. The necklace sort of looks like a long stoplight. In order from top to bottom the colors are/look like…

-White or Gray
-Purple (ish)
-Maybe Gray?
-Green (ish)
-Maybe black
-Orange or Red
-Looks like purple

Can somebody explain to me what each stone means and what stone and color from top to bottom they actually are?

first of all..there are many different types of chakra necklaces.

ROOT CHAKRA : This is the first and lowest chakra, located in the perineum. It’s believed to govern your basic survival instincts. The root chakra is represented by the color red
SACRAL CHAKRA: This second chakra is located level to your naval, and governs your creative and emotional energies. It’s represented by the color orange.
SOLAR PLEXUS chakra: The third chakra is located at about the same level as the bottom of your sternum. It’s thought to govern your energy and activity levels. It’s represented by the color yellow
HEART chakra: The fourth chakra, located at heart level, is said to govern love and relationships. It’s represented by the color green, but can progress to rose (pinkish) for those who learn to love unconditionally
THROAT chakra: This fifth chakra governs your ability to communicate and take action. It’s represented by the color blue
BROW chakra: Chakra number six governs your spirituality, intuition and thoughts. It is sometimes referred to as the "third eye", and is represented by a deep purple color.
CROWN chakra: This seventh and final chakra governs understanding and wisdom. It is represented by either violet or white

Although different cultures have slightly different beliefs about the chakra system, it’s generally believed that there are a total of seven chakras located along the length of your spine, beginning at the base, and ending at the crown of your head.

I hope this has helped

Im a 15 year old girl. I have been through a lot(please no comments on my age) I spoke to this lady today. and i told her:

-how i hadn’t been acting myself lately
-how others were taking notice.
-I was having an extremely difficult time concentrating on the simplest things
-extremely irregular appetite
-excessivly sleeping
-easy tasks had now become hard
-enraged over the smallest things
-constantly feeling like a failure
-feeling worthless
-constantly sad
-anxiety and irratability
-exceptionally sluggish/lack of energy
-not wanting to do things i used to.
-isolate/alienating myself in social situations.

Its effecting my life /ability to perform well in school/being social.
She suggested that i have depression. i had never really thought about it until she suggested it. But now im reallly considering it.

ive been getting advice to go to a doctor about it..

BUT HERE’S THE THING.. I cant ask my mom to take my to the doctor because we dont believe in doctors or medicines doctors give patients. we believe in the whole natural/spiritual/chakra/crystal healing (dont ask, or make any comments on this please). But i dont live with her, so i cant get any healing from her. So my last resort is a doctor. I cant ask my dad because he is trying to gain custody of me (since my parents are divorced) and will take my "depression" to the court, and tell the court that living with my mom is making me depressed (which it is not). (by the way, he thinks im living with my mom, but im living with my grandparents, by choice) I cant ask my grandparents because theyll tell my mom.

Please don’t recommend a school counselor because i go to independent study which is homeschooling, or online study.

Any recommendations on my situation or how i could get to a doctor?
or how to find a doctor that can give me a depression screening to see if i have depression or need medication?
and if i do get to see a doctor, what will they do/give me once im there, or once they diagnose me?

I guess your best bet right now would be to call a doctors office and talk to the receptionist and see if you ahve to be a certain age to go to the doctor by yourself, and explain the situation but that you really need help with this one. If they say no there are hotlines and places you can go to get help without anyone knowing because they are completely confidential. Good luck

Chakra in Hindi and Sanskrit means circle. Rest i don’t know what you are talking about.

*Growls* I already asked this in the Religion & Spirituality thread. Should have expected what I got. Damn Christian skeptic takeover…I just got a bunch of crap about using more or less of whatever random hallucinogen they could think of. We really should take that thread back, get ourselves accepted there again. There is more to religion than Christianity and God, and anyone who tries to claim otherwise is an idiot. Anyway, mini-rant over. On to the explanation.

I’ve been on the Astral Plane multiple times, and I was beginning to gain a mastery of it. I was already controlling my location, astral body, and leaving or returning at will. On my last visit to the Astral, which was over a month ago, I left my body to find someone waiting for me in the Astral. She spoke to me, and when she left, I found myself caught in a sort of Astral Flicker. I was returned to my body, and when I tried to leave my bed, my body didn’t come with me. I returned to my body again with the same result. After repeating this a few times with growing frustration, I forced myself to stay in my body and left my bed. For the rest of the day, I felt as though I could leave my body at any given moment, even while standing up. I prevented myself from doing so, fearing that my body would fall and harm itself. When I returned to bed the next night, I attempted another visit, thinking she might be there again. I failed to project, instead falling asleep. This has happened every night since then. A few times, I managed to get the right vibrations for leaving my body, but I still couldn’t leave. It’s as though I’ve been locked out of the Astral Plane. I’ve gone through all the exercises to make sure I wasn’t forgetting anything, and though my life has been stressful since that last visit, I haven’t been letting it affect me, and I’m good at clearing my mind. I suspect a blocked chakra might be to blame, but I’m hoping for suggestions.

Something I know a bit about however due to my…lets say spiritual disposition I am unable to do it, so all I will give is theory’s, if anyone thinks i’m wrong that’s fine, I don’t pretend to be an expert on the subject.

From experience of similar things I assume that blocking someone would not be such an easy thing to accomplish, so if this woman has blocked you she must either be quite a powerful practitioner or an entity with enough power to do that. I would put forward that there mus be some reason behind this, as if they had the power to block you then harming you wouldn’t be an issue, they may be trying to teach you something, maybe that you’ve been on the astral plane too much recently?

An alternative theory is that the more you think about this woman and the more you get frustrated, the more you are blocking yourself. I think you should take a break from it for a while, do some meditation and try some other things.

In Christian parlance a dog was a gay person…….
Sacral chakra can lead one to adopt animalistic tendencies, but you are already human. By Yoga and Dhyana one should try to raise the Kundalini to the next higher level, in this case the chest level or neck level which is closer to Deva (or human and / or) Angelic levels from the animal level.
