Chakra Notes and the Sound of a Singing Bowl

What Are Chakras and Chakra Notes

Chakra is an abstract concept; it is like air that can be felt but is invisible to our eyes. When you experience feelings like lack of enthusiasm, creativity, stability, jealousy, fear, insecurity, anger, or too many emotions, your chakras may be unbalanced.

Chakras are also associated with musical notes like C, D, E, F, G, A, and B, as well as colors in Western interpretations. According to Hindu texts, chakras do not have colors. Christopher Hills first mentioned chakra colors in his book Nuclear Evolution.

Chakra notes correspond to the sound of a singing bowl and are a Western adaptation, while Vedas do not mention chakra notes.

What’s Musical Note Got to Do with Chakras

Music has healing properties. Egyptians used music for thousands of years, and today it is known as Sound Therapy. Music penetrates the body, interacts with neurons and nerves, and creates a healing sensation.

Balancing chakras occurs because thousands of neurons and nerves connect to them. A chakra can be considered a group of cells, tissue, or a point. There are 114 chakras in the body, with seven being the most important.
