Chakra Alignment

 

 

Why Chakras Matter

 

Each chakra governs a specific theme (e.g. safety, communication, emotional connection). When one becomes imbalanced—due to trauma, stress, or lifestyle—it can cause energetic blocks that manifest physically or emotionally. Aligning and balancing these centres can support:

 

• Emotional regulation

• Physical energy and vitality

• Confidence, boundaries, or emotional expression

 

Understanding Your Chakras

 

Each of the seven main chakras functions like a tuning fork for your physical, emotional, and psychological wellbeing. When balanced, they allow energy and emotion to move freely. When blocked or overactive—often due to stress, trauma, or emotional suppression—they can contribute to physical symptoms, emotional dysregulation, and disconnection from self.

​

Chakra Alignment at Lavender by Leia helps bring awareness to these imbalances and gently restores energetic harmony, using a combination of energy work, breath, intention, and crystal therapy.
