How about a diet that helps you to balance your chakras?
From our healthy hobbies article you have already learned that I am a big fan of yoga. However, nutritious food is definitely another big passion of mine. How can you combine it? After some research I actually found out that there is a chakra healing diet that is devoted to balancing all the energy centres in your body.
Let’s start from basics and first of all talk a bit about chakras themselves. From sanskrit chakra is translated as wheel or disk. There are seven chakras in one’s body starting from the beginning of our spine and going up to our head. Different chakras are responsible for energy centres in some parts of our body and, therefore, can be either blocked or open. For example, let’s say someone has regular problems with stomach - based on chakras it means a person is most likely to have his/her/their third(close to solar plexus) chakra blocked.
Most yoga practices are focused on opening blocked chakras through intense asanas where that or another center is physically simulated. At The Jar - Healthy Vending we decided to do it our way and support your chakras through providing with the best snack and beverage options to support your chakra healing diet.
So let’s start spinning our energy disks!
