 Yoga and our energetic body While we can see - and have a relatively familiar relationship with - our tangible body with its muscles, bones, joints and skin, our internal organs are much less discernible. But their functions can be felt and at least some of the results are often visible. On the other hand, the idea of energy in our body is more of a concept, even if we sometimes instinctively know that we have only a little or a lot of it. Energy flows or stagnates; is powerful or weak; sometimes we feel like a million dollars, at other times even the smallest demand seems too much. Chinese medicine talks about the existence of a life energy called chi, which flows through energy channels in the body called meridians. In yoga this energy is called prana, the life energy which spreads throughout our bodies. Here too it is assumed that prana moves along main channels from the bottom to the top of the spine and crosses at several points. These intersections are called energy wheels or chakras in Sanscrit. On several Saturdays this year we will take a closer look at each individual chakra, investigating their physical and psychological connections and relevance for developmental topics in our lives. In addition we make each chakra discernible with corresponding Yoga poses so that we can develop a sensitivity for the recognition of the causes of tensions and permeability in these areas of our bodies.
