The idea of chakras as understood in Eastern philosophy, in religion and medicine does not exist in Western medical science. However chakras are so-called energy centers that form a powerful working link between our physical, our mental and our spiritual body. They are indispensable to good physical, emotional and mental health. 'Chakra' is a Sanskrit word for spinning wheel, chakras do resemble a wheel. Like the tires on a car, balanced chakras help the body function efficiently and powerful. But chakras may close forever, what means some adults may not fully function. A way to balance chakras is Yoga, Tai Chi Chuan etc...

Indian Yogic teachers assign to seven major chakras according to traditional Indian medicine but Taoism on the other hand teaches that there are three types of energy known as "the three treaures". There is the energy of the spirit (stored in the third eye), there is vital energy (stored in the solar plexus), and there is generative energy (stored in the tantien).
