Chakra Teas

About our Chakra Tea Collection…

The concept of Chakras evolved from the ancient spiritual systems of India and South America. Chakra, the ancient word for “wheel”, is an energy center, a vortex of radiant light and life force (also known as “Chi”) that is constantly turning and expanding. The Chakras are a very real part of your energetic anatomy, as evidenced by the electrical activity we can visualize with the aid of common monitors found in hospitals such as E.K.G, E.E.G machines, etc.

The opening of the Chakras is a journey towards becoming your true self … a journey into a balanced life, one centered around God, our Creator and Source of all life. It is a holistic way of unfolding all the God-given potential that you have within you as a human being. You are a biological being which has been thoughtfully created by the Divine.

There are seven major Chakra systems, each with its own distinct center of intense, concentrated energy. Each has a specific vibrational element, color, shape, sound, and influence, connecting the body, mind, and soul.

At birth, the Chakras are open, healthy, radiant, and full of vitality, unless there has been a birthing or prenatal trauma. As children grow and develop, the various levels of intensity of human interactions such as fear, rejection, failure, and physical or emotional traumas can cause the Chakras to close. By adulthood, they may be completely closed and if there is unbalance or disharmony, illness can begin. When a person buries a painful experience, the body begins to vibrate its energy sub-optimally.
