How Chakras Relate to the Nervous System + Your FAQ

SURPRISE!! I’ve got a bonus episode for you this week.

I’m going to explore three of the most commonly asked questions I hear from students about the chakras — especially how they relate to the nervous system, your fascia, and lived experience.

🔹 Are the chakras literal locations, archetypes, developmental stages — or all three?

🔹 Do chakras actually open and close?

🔹 What’s the relationship between chakra patterns and nervous system regulation?

If you’ve ever wondered how these energy centers show up in your posture, behavior, and emotions — this quick breakdown will connect the dots between yogic wisdom and modern science in a way that’s practical and embodied.

I’ll also share my favorite metaphor for understanding the chakras, and why we need to stop treating them like a spiritual report card.
