The concept of Chakras has been around for thousands and thousands of years! The word Chakra comes from the Sanskrit language meaning “wheel”.
These energy centres are like vortexes of spinning energy. Processing our fast vibrating energy. Our emotions and consciousness. Just like our body processes our low vibrating, physical energy.
As you can see in the picture below. The energy moves in a circular movement like a funnel. Becoming more narrow as it gets closer to our Chakras. And wider as it the energy flows away.
