How are chakras balanced?

Chakras are dynamic. They are constantly changing in size, activity level and color of the prana they hold based on our emotional state of mind or the type of activity we are engaged at a given time. In fact, everything we do affects our chakras. Eating food will change the size of chakras responsible for managing the digestive system. If we spend even 10 minutes in nature or lie down in grass, our chakras size will change. If you pick a random person off the street and measure their chakras, it is almost certain that their chakras will not be balanced. Temporary unbalancing of chakras is normal. 

According to Pranic Healing, when all of our major chakras are almost the same size and are filled with good prana, we are healthy. It is important that we keep our chakra healthy and scan them on a regular basis. The challenge lies in prolonged or chronic unbalancing of chakras which can lead to health issues in the long term.

There are several ways to balance chakras. We can divide them into indirect and direct methods.

Doing yoga is an example of an indirect method. Each yoga asana and mudra is designed to affect the quality and quantity of prana energy in auras and chakras. If you can find good quality information on which posture affects a certain chakra, you can do the posture to activate that chakra. 

Doing meditation by focusing on chakras is another indirect method of activating the chakras.

If we do deep breathing, chakra size will change. But if we do the exact same deep breathing in nature, chakra size will change even more.

Yoga, breathing exercise and meditation are all wonderful methods. But the person trying these methods can only hope that their chakras are getting balanced. There is no way to verify the degree of balancing that actually happens. Have you ever asked questions such as, “Are my chakras 5% more balanced or 50% than when I did yoga/deep breathing/meditation/something else?

One of the easiest ways to answer this question is by scanning the chakras. By combining the knowledge of scanning with your yoga, breathing or meditation practice, you can easily validate if your chakras are actually getting balanced and take your practice to the next level. In a Pranic Healing training, students measure their chakras before and after meditation to check its impact on the size of each chakra. 

Just like eating healthy and exercising, indirect methods of chakra balancing are good for maintenance of good health. But for someone with issues e.g. insomnia, anxiety or migraine, indirect methods of balancing the chakras may not be as potent and expeditious as desired. 

Pranic Healing technology offers a much more direct approach to measure, heal and balance chakras. The step-by-step techniques taught are precise and easy to practice. Every time you heal your chakras, with the knowledge of scanning, you can do before and after measurements to make sure it is happening for real. 

The efficacy of chakra balancing using Pranic Healing technology was measured using scientific instruments specially designed to measure pranic energy by Dr. Motoyama(2). 

Pranic Healing perspective for someone suffering from cancer is that the lower chakras are much bigger in size and upper chakras are smaller. Pranic Healing protocol suggests increasing size of the upper chakras and shrinking size of lower chakras to achieve balance. In an experiment, Apparatus for Meridian Identification was used to measure Qi or prana energy levels in meridians of a subject with breast cancer before and after performing Pranic Healing to balance the chakras. The measurements showed significant relative changes in prana energy. The relative decrease in prana energy level was most clearly noticeable in meridians related to the lower chakras which the healer targeted for “inhibition.” Conversely the most noticeable relative increase in energy level was seen in the meridians related to the upper chakras targeted for “expansion.” 

It is wonderful to be able to measure that the chakras are being balanced using the Pranic Healing approach. But can balancing chakras have an impact on healing a disease?

Since, according to Pranic Healing, in the case of cancer, there is a significant chakra imbalance, we can review a breast cancer case. 

Recently, a case study (3) was published for a 63-year-old patient who was diagnosed with stage 4 carcinoma breast with brain, lung and liver metastasis. In addition to standard medical care, 6 weeks of Pranic Healing intervention was done. Among other things, the Pranic Healing protocol involved balancing chakras by inhibiting lower chakras and expanding upper chakras to ensure their sizes become similar. After 6 weeks, there was dramatic reduction in metabolic activity and size of previously noted metastatic breast cancer involving the lymph nodes, lungs, brain and the liver.

There are several pilot and published research on Impact of chakra balancing using Pranic Healing on mental health. For example, in a double-blind study, 69.2% of depression patients’ condition improved with antidepressant medication and mock Pranic Healing while 100% of the depression patients’ condition improved with antidepressant medication and Pranic Healing for 4 weeks (4). More details can be found on our Mental Health page.

In the case of chronic chakra imbalance, even if the chakras are healed and balanced, they may not remain balanced for more than a few hours or a day. It is important to scan regularly and heal again till the affected chakras normalize. Balancing chakras is a lot like building muscles. There are no shortcuts to this process. That’s why it is important that everyone learns to take care of their chakra health on their own rather than relying on someone else to do it for them.
