What are Chakras?
Your Chakras are a dynamic, flowing system within the subtle anatomy of your Aura. The Chakras swirl in a cascading stream that connects the Divine, eternal part of you (your deathless soul) with the earthly, finite part of you (your physical body). You can think of Chakras as metaphysical energy wheels that drive the vehicle of your life.
Why are Chakras important?
Chakras help us understand the way energy is processed in our lives. They affect the flow and types of thoughts we have, the energies we gather to take action on those thoughts, and ultimately, our ability to manifest what we desire and need in our lives. Consequently, opening and balancing our Chakras affects our perceptions, feelings, and choices.
Where are the Chakras located?
The first seven Chakras correspond to the location of glands in the endocrine system or to nerve plexes in the central nervous system. The eighth major Chakra corresponds to the magnetic field of your body: your Aura.
How do the Chakras work?
Chakras are never static, but their energies can become bogged down for several reasons, causing various consequences in life. Your Chakras wax and wane in a dynamically flowing vortex field within your subtle energy body, which interpenetrates your physical body. No Chakra stands alone; all Chakras work in unison. The lower three Chakras focus on elimination and reduction. The upper three focus on accumulation, creation, and refinement. The Heart Chakra in the middle is the balance point between the “lower triangle” and the “upper triangle,” where our experience shifts from “me” to “Thee” or from “me” to “we.”

"This workshop helped me release a very old pattern and restore my hope. I could see how my higher self or spirit self was and is connected, and I could see me becoming One. The course notes in my opinion are wonderful. So much was given and I am sure, with these notes, I will be able to go back and remember, and practice again and again. I also love having the definitions to remember as well. Thank you!"

"I L.O.V.E.D. the prayer walk - such calmness and energy. 'Sa Ta Na Ma," the meditation to focus the mind, touched me very deeply, especially when we would come to 'Death': very moving. This workshop gave me new and beautiful ways to connect with the Divine. Sonya created a very relaxing, peaceful, sacred environment. I recommend this class for grieving persons - I was finally able to release my loved one."

"The teaching on the Ten Bodies was very beneficial and opened up awareness of an issue I have dealt with for a long time. God gave me a revelation and through Sonya's teaching, a way to begin to heal and transform. I though the entire presentation was done very well. It walked us through teaching we had never heard and was very helpful. The book, music, and activities were put together to be easily understood, and Sonya did an amazing job of presenting it all in love with a sweet and joyful spirit."

"Loved the music. The notebook is chalk-full of information that I can go to and review. Really informative presentation. I really liked the activity of drawing and then tearing it up and giving it to God. I recommend this workshop for stressed-out folks, and folks that struggle with the 'emptying of the mind' kind of meditation. I was impressed with the definitions of the words and the proper pronunciation."
