Chakra awakening with Holi colours

The festivities of Holi begin days prior to the actual day and continue to be celebrated days after, all over India. The celebrations are also associated with colour and pathways to spirituality by some people. When we speak of spirituality, our chakras are also affected by the colours amongst many other elements. The energy that flows through our body nourishes us emotionally and physically. So, here is a low down on ways to balance and align each chakra from the lowest to top by mixing and using organic colours, herbs and essential oils in your water drums or colour.
