From an energy medicine perspective, good health is multidimensional. It goes beyond symptoms and diagnosis. How you feel physically is one dimension. How your doctors summarize your symptoms is another. Perhaps the most important dimension is how energy moves in your body, resulting in symptoms that will light up a CT scan.

Energy is not only older than the invention of the stethoscope; it is older than the language used to describe physical discomfort. Energy is the core of all things in the universe.

The submicroscopic world of energy creates the home you live in, the car you drive, and the clothing you're wearing right now. Underneath the particles that make up the texture, design, and color in your clothing lives another formation of subatomic particles, the human body. Your body pulsates with energy. In one moment, you body moves vast amounts of blood to your heart while cleansing carbon monoxide from your lungs. The cleansing takes place through millions of cellular contacts powered by energy, ultimately allowing you to breathe.

If everything is made of energy then disease is too. Therefore disease is energy. Disease would be found in the areas of the body where energy is stagnant or barely moving. In contrast, healthy, vital areas of the body are full of motion.

Energy medicine assesses the energetic state, or overall health of a person. This is done by detecting areas of the body where the energy is stagnant. Energy medicine practices are then used to re-vitalize the area.

The chakras are receivers and transmitters of life force energy into the body. Their vitality or lack thereof, is the perfect way to measure the health of the organs and systems they nourish. When a chakra lacks color, light, or movement, it is low in energy. Chakras that chronically lack energy are indicators of poor health.

Revitalizing the chakra system can found through many outlets, including Chinese medicine, acupuncture, chiropractic medicine, naturopathic medicine, herbal medicines and various forms of hands on healing.

You can re-energize your chakras everyday through eating well, sleeping well and most importantly by feeling your feelings. Energy moves in to the body based on how we feel. Most times we choose to avoid our feelings. Sometimes we feel something that inaccurately represents our true feelings; like the feelings of another person.

Each chakra governs an emotional area of human life. If you allow yourself to be aware of your real feelings you will automatically release low energy and receive vital energy into your body.
