Balancing the Seven Chakras: A Path to Holistic Healing

In the ancient wisdom of yoga and Ayurveda, the human body is not just flesh and bones—it is a vibrant energy system. At the core of this system lie the seven chakras, or energy centers, that govern our physical, emotional, and spiritual wellbeing.
