In yoga, the life force energy (otherwise known as “prana”) travels through the subtle body in a series of channels, called “nadis.” These nadis intersect at points of intensified energy, called “chakras.” A Sanskrit word for “wheel,” chakras are spinning vortexes of energy in the subtle body that correspond to various glands along the spine and inside the skull.

According to yoga philosophy, the human body has seven major chakras which will be further explored in the latter sections of this guide.

Each chakra governs specific behaviors and values in our lives.

Yoga is one of the most basic ways to balance each chakra because it creates alignment in the physical body. Balancing and stabilizing your physical body through asana (yoga posture) practice also rebalances your subtle body. This realigns the chakras, which regulate specific behaviors, and makes it easier to overcome outdated patterns, beliefs, and habits.

Below is a description of the seven major chakras, along with yoga postures that will help to stimulate and balance each one.

Root Chakra — Muladhara Chakra

Belly Chakra — Svadhishthana Chakra

Solar Plexus Chakra — Manipura Chakra

Heart Chakra — Anahata Chakra

Throat Chakra — Vishuddha Chakra

Third Eye Chakra — Ajna Chakra

Crown Chakra — Sahasrara Chakra
