This really isn’t a book you read. I read through it once just to see what it was all about but it’s really a work book. It helps you move through your chakras, opening and balancing them. So each chapter is a new chakra, starting with the majors and ending with the minors. Each chapter gives you what the chakra is about and how it can be unbalanced. It gives you a mandala to meditate on and walks you through the meditation. It gives oils/foods/scents/stones etc attuned to the chakra to help your meditation. And lastly gives you yoga moves to try (let me just say, the meditations are easily but only someone skilled in yoga are doing these moves. They’re not for beginners)

So now I need to sit down and work the book. I can’t say that it’s helpful since I need to try it but I thought the book was well put together, beautifully illustrated and takes the meditations seriously but not overly so. It doesn’t have that fru-fru feeling some new age/spiritual books can get. I felt very comfortable with this book.

It is more of a workbook, but I wanted to read through it before I just focused on learning about any one chakra. Each chapter had a lot of great insights not only on understanding that particular chakra, but different meditation skills and good asanas to work with that particular energy. Very interesting and insightful.
