Rev-up Your Chakras

Most of us have energetic blocks and imbalances which constrict the flow of life force, and prevent us from accessing our full vitality, which leads us to feel exhausted, scattered, vague, and unwell. We are what we eat, and what we put into our bodies affects how we feel, think, and how our bodies perform. Food is one of the biggest healers and preventatives of illness. When we have times of feeling lazy, unconfident, unsuccessful, fatigued, depressed, anxious, frustrated, emotional, and burnt out, these are indicators that our chakras are blocked. By eating certain rainbow coloured foods, and repeat certain practises it helps us to restore our motivation, and super charge our energy
