Lyndsay, an empath, began a career in the beauty industry using her creative talents to help others. She envisions a world where everyone lives in harmony. She dreams of all the wonderful ways she can create her business, but she can’t seem to get any traction. She often feels vulnerable and is always spinning her wheels trying to make things happen.
Sierra is sought after for her treatments because of her incredible healing hands. She helps her clients get the results they want and more. Highly respected and loved, she seems to have it all. Yet she goes home exhausted each day only to continue to take care of others, which has led to her suffering from bouts of depression.
Can you relate? Lyndsay and Sierra have something in common: Leaky aura.

Leaky aura is a condition in which your aura has developed energy gaps like Swiss cheese from years of leaving bits and pieces of your energy behind. Not taking care of yourself depletes you energetically and leaves you susceptible to absorbing unwanted energies from others. Stress, anxiety, mental chatter, exhaustion, not being grounded and even depression are all signs of having leaky aura. It is very common. Most people don’t even realize they’re experiencing it.
Leaky aura is a condition of out of balance chakras. Your chakras are energy centers that fuel your physical, mental, emotional and energy bodies. Chakra energy radiates from within you and surrounds your physical body—this is called the aura. The chakras and the aura together make up your subtle energy body. Other names for your subtle energy body are essence, spirit and soul.

There are seven major chakras that align from your tailbone up to the crown of your head. Each is associated with a color, sense, sound, endocrine gland and organs. A balanced flow of this vital life force energy creates a healthy body, mind, emotions and spirit.
If you are out of balance in any chakra center, it can create dis-ease in the body, mind and emotions over time.
A healthy aura surrounds you like an invisible bubble, providing protection against the absorption of unwanted energies. The colors of the aura represent both the health of the physical and subtle energy body. It is vibrant and full of the colors of the rainbow. Being full of color energy enables you to have access to physical health, a quiet mind, intuition, feelings of well-being, as well as a sense of self and purpose.
Each chakra provides a specific level of awareness. See the chart below for a list of the conditions for healthy versus out-of-balance chakras.

A chakra reading lets me know the condition of my client's energy body. Lyndsay tends to live more in her upper chakras and is not grounded in her lower three chakras. Because of this, she may have many great ideas but she cannot bring them down to earth.
Sierra, on the other hand, is grounded and in her body but blocked in her upper chakras. The upper chakras are where you receive intuitive insights. Insights give you a sense of hope to make it through the difficult times. You feel connected to source and receive solutions to what seem like impossible situations.
How do you balance the chakras? You use colorful gemstones, scent, sound and reiki. Remember that the colors of nature’s rainbow are the same as the colors of your inner rainbow, the chakra system. Notice how you feel restored when you spend time in nature or eat fresh, colorful foods? These also feed your soul.
Reiki is my favorite healing modality to balance and heal the chakras. It transmits universal life-force energy through the hands to help lift the spirits and provide balance to the whole self: body, mind, feelings and spirit. Twenty minutes a day of hands-on healing keeps your aura healthy and vibrant.
Lyndsay and Sierra now practice reiki daily. Lyndsay’s business has taken off. Sierra is now taking steps to slow down and take care of herself. You too can heal your leaky aura and resolve a multitude of life’s issues by keeping your chakras in balance.
