"The energy that created you can heal you."
Dr. Rook, Chiropractor Chakras - colors associated with energy within the human body used for healing and meditation.
Mapping the energies in our bodies. "An appreciation of the ancient wisdom of the chakra system, which corresponds to modern scientific discoveries about the location of neuropeptide-enriched nodal points along our bodies’ longitudinal axis, can help us enter a relaxed state of mind where natural recuperation and recovery can occur."[1]
Chakras & Energy
Chakras are one way to describe the energy fields in our bodies. Imagine the electricity in your wall outlet; even though you cannot see it, you know it is there. Everything has energy, as described in this Q&A from the Department of Physics, University of Illinois. [2]

Eastern Body, Western Mind
This book was recommended to me by my yoga teacher, Melanee, Healthy Zen in Santa Barbara.
In EASTERN BODY, WESTERN MIND, chakra authority Anodea Judith brought a fresh approach to the yoga-based Eastern chakra system, adapting it to the Western framework of Jungian psychology, somatic therapy, childhood developmental theory, and metaphysics. This groundbreaking work in transpersonal psychology has been revised and redesigned for a more accessible presentation. Arranged schematically, the book uses the inherent structure of the chakra system as a map upon which to chart our Western understanding of individual development. Each chapter focuses on a single chakra, starting with a description of its characteristics, then exploring its particular childhood developmental patterns, traumas and abuses, and how to heal and maintain balance. Illuminated with personal anecdotes and case studies, EASTERN BODY, WESTERN MIND seamlessly merges the East and West, science and philosophy, and psychology and spirituality into a compelling interpretation of the chakra system and its relevance for Westerners today.
