Subtle Balance

Understand the subtle system

The subtle system image below shows the channels and chakras that support meditation, balance, and inner ascent.

Left Channel

The left channel governs our emotions, desires, and our connection with the past. By balancing this channel we can remove any weight from our past which is holding us back, allowing us to feel motivated and to believe in ourselves.

Right Channel

The right channel corresponds to all of our thoughts, actions and our connection with the future. By cleansing this channel we can calm down our thoughts and remove any worries about the future.

Central Channel

The central channel is the path of balance and ascent. When we raise our Kundalini through this channel we are guided towards a higher awareness which facilitates our spiritual evolution and allows us to reach a blissful state which is beyond our mental understanding.
