Chakras- Emotional energy areas

A natural instinct state of mind deriving from one's circumstances, mood or relationships with others is defined as EMOTION. Any feeling which characterizes the feeling of joy, anger, love, guilt, sorrow etc is called as emotion.
It is interesting to note that each emotion corresponds to a specific chakra in turn to a specific organ. It is the emotion that affects the physiology. 


A child's heart is full and purest of all
Each emotion tends to affect another emotion- either by giving rise to another emotion or overcoming another emotion or lowering another emotion. All this leads to one chakra imbalance affecting another chakra


  • Giving rise/feeds to another emotion ( reactive)-  Anger gives rise to joy, joy gives rise to thought, thought gives rise to worry, worry fives rise to fear and fear to anger
  • Overcoming another emotion ( more of imbalance and channeling of energy)-  Anger overcomes thought, thought overcomes fear, fear overcomes joy, joy overcomes worry and hence anger
  • One emotion lowering another emotion- worry reduces joy, joy reduces fear, fear reduces thought, thought reduces anger, anger reduces worry.

Of all the emotions the negative emotions like guilt, worry, sadness etc. are the one's which lead to a large imbalance in the psychological and physiological state of a person/being. Below is a chart which lists the negative emotion area ---chakra and feelings or triggers related to it.
