Article by Neetu Jha

Each chakra has a specific role in our life. If all chakras are healed and healthy, it can bring happiness in life. However, at the same time blocked chakras can make our life miserable.

Therefore it is very important to understand the function of each chakra and cleanse them regularly.

Chakra’s can be purified by various ways. One of the easiest methods is healing through Reiki. If one is attuned to Reiki, only by placing the hand over each chakra, he/she can clean that chakra. However a non Reiki person can purify the chakras, by chanting the beej mantras.
