The Chakra Diaries [Paperback]

Becca Chopra (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: November 22, 2010

Balance your own chakras as you learn how these "energy centers" affect love and loss, health and happiness, life and death for the participants in a chakra workshop. You'll laugh, cry and and maybe even jump for joy as you experience their transformation with them!

Whether you're an avid yogi or yogini or have never heard of chakras, you'll find this look at the human condition and the miracles that can happen through forgiveness, love and energy healing to be both enlightening and entertaining.

You'll learn about:

• Chakra Meditation
• Chakra Yoga
• Affirmations for Chakra Cleansing
• Crystal Chakra Healing
• Mind-Body Healing    

This is not a how-to book. It's what happens when you put ancient teachings and modern lives into the same kitchen and raise the heat while cooking up great emotion. The Chakra Diaries is a literary romance, but with emotional, intellectual and spiritual nuances that would appeal to anyone interested in love, especially enlightened love. The villains in The Chakra Diaries are ones we all try to avoid: cancer, lost love, false beliefs, but it is these very perilous obstacles that drive the stories and finally lift the characters into their higher spiritual states through chakra healing and balancing.

From the Author

As the facilitator and also a participant during chakra workshops, I have witnessed miracles and magic, twists and turns I never expected in myself or others. They've haunted me until placed on the page in this fictional narrative that includes a group leader on her own quest to live a life of discovery and love. Because of her humanity, she tends to love too much and overstep all the conventional boundaries, but she stirs her students at levels where they can discover themselves too and find truth, happiness and love.

I have been browsing books for my own personal Chakra education, and came across this book. LOVED it, and couldn't put it down. This book is a very well written fictional account, yet taps into the true meaning of the Chakras. The reviews don't exaggerate when they say that you'll laugh, cry and cheer on the characters of The Chakra Diaries. A must read for ALL '

5.0 out of 5 stars Healing Power of Love January 22, 2011

By Sampo Kaasila

Format:Paperback

The Chakra Diaries draws you into the life stories of nine participants in a chakra workshop, lead by Rebecca. Their life paths and Rebecca's intersect at the workshop, where they are exposed to the healing power of love. The novel contains all their individual diaries, with their human hopes, fears, emotions, challenges, triumphs, setbacks, and lives. The book is in the end a beautifully told love story, and we see the participants removing obstacles that block love and the expression of love. Interspersed within you will also find chakra visualization meditations, and insightful spiritual quotes. Reading this book brought me joy.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fun Way to Learn About How Chakra Imbalances Impact Our Overall Lives January 6, 2012

By L. Erickson TOP 1000 REVIEWER

Format:Paperback

Chakra Diaries offers a fun, unique way to learn how the energy of the chakras manifests in our everyday lives, how imbalances may impact us, and how clearing and healing them can help us change ourselves and our situation. It's a collection of excerpts from the fictional diary entries of several participants in a 12-week chakra workshop. They are asked by the instructor, Rebecca (who also has a chapter) to journal an overview of their lives up to this point, and then to document the changes in their lives that occur throughout the course of the workshop.

Each chapter is a different character's diary, so of course all are told in the first person. The chapters are organized by chakra, from the root chakra up to the crown, featuring someone whose greatest block or imbalance lies in that particular chakra. The character's lives begin to intertwine as they get to know each other, and they feature in each other's entries. Some of the stories are quite dramatic, with pasts ranging from sexual abuse to being orphaned, while others are more low-key - dysfunctional families, unfulfilling careers, financial issues, or relationship woes. These themes are traced to corresponding blocks or imbalances in their chakras, and they begin to experience shifts as they both work through these issues in their lives, and do meditation and energy healing work on the chakras directly.

Someone new to the chakras will probably want to combine reading this with a non-fiction option, and/or with guided meditation CDs or audio files. Someone who already knows a bit about the chakras will appreciate this as way of exploring the ways chakra imbalances and blocks impact our actual lives. Some of the stories are very touching, and they are certainly never boring, so this is also a much more engaging way to explore the chakras than most non-fiction options.
