You may identify yourself with one or more of such issues listed above. However, it does not necessarily mean that you are in need of help. As we live through our lives, our daily events that occur to us may affect our Chakras, causing them to be over/underactive for a period of time. However, these imbalances usually does not last for long.
If you realize that there are symptoms that have been with you for quite some time, and it affects your daily life and interactions with the people around you, you may like to take note of the following suggestions below for balancing and clearing any blockages in the chakra:
