Yoga for Dancers The Seven Chakras There are seven energy centers, Chakras that parallel the spine. Each Chakra has certain qualities and associations. The yoga postures are what help to get this energy in balance. Within the body exist a series of minor and major energy centers called Chakras.

My Internet Experience When I first head about the Internet, the first thing that ran through my mind was that computers are going to take over the world. I have a very negative outlook. I thought people were never going to come out of their home, because now they are going base their whole life around the computer.

The Damsel and I Introduction to the Archetype The Damsel has spanned throughout history as a popular archetype in literature, movies, and music. Through these forms of entertainment, The Damsel is portrayed as naïve, innocent, and feeble. In media, she eagerly awaits to be rescued and protected by a handsome prince, and live “happily ever after.” The Damsel has potential for greatness, yet only realizes it when guided by a prince.

Like you I am a light worker in search of Truth. It has been a life long journey. One guru, several religions, three husbands, two kids and three careers later, I have discovered that I Am that Truth. I Am one in sync with Universal Intelligence. Soren Kierkegaard said, “Life is understood backwards but it must be lived forward.” We are all on a life mission to connect with Divine Intelligence and everything we experience is on purpose.

The seven chakras are also very important in the work. When the kundalini ascends, it must pierce through each of the seven chakras.

"My art has always been in response to visions. Rather than confine my subject to representations of the outer worlds, I include portrayals of the multi-dimensional imaginal realms that pull us toward consciousness evolution." It has been said that artist Alex Grey is in the business of painting souls. His paintings are a mix of transcendentalist philosophy, precise anatomy, and a heady balance of major world religions.

There were many chakras that held a strong hold on a being, the natural chakra of someone varied.
