Chatting to Denis at work today about biorhythms.. he was telling me he rarely makes important decisions on a Monday because his emotional cycle is at a low ebb.
Biorhythms also affect mental and physical states at different cycles, calculated from your date of birth. Found a web site that calculates where you are in your biorythmic cycle at www.bio-chart.com.
Did some further reading and learned about chakras – a series of eight centres of the body that process energy, influencing our physical, emotional, mental and intuitive states. There is an interesting questionnaire at www.eclecticenergies.com/chakras which helps to measure the status of each of your chakras. They are either under-active, open or over-active. The ideal state is open. These questions examine how you feel or perceive yourself, and your place in the universe.
Chakras can be “opened” through chakra meditations, which rely on energy generating hand positions (“mudras”) and chants. This is where I get a little bit sceptical.. but I’m thinking if nothing else this could be a good relaxation technique.
