What if your chakra “block” isn’t a block — but your nervous system doing its job?
In this bonus episode, I go deeper into your most advanced chakra questions: from how the polyvagal ladder maps onto the energy body, to why certain life patterns keep repeating. We’ll explore how trauma, somatics, and subtle anatomy intersect — and why your healing path isn’t linear (and was never meant to be). We’ll explore:
🔹 Are chakras sequential or cyclical?
🔹 Why trauma theory transforms how we understand energy centers
🔹 How the koshas and gunas make chakra work more precise
🔹 Why you keep facing the same life lessons — and what to do about it
🔹 How each chakra reflects your nervous system’s state (fight/flight/freeze)
This is a practical, somatic deep-dive into energy anatomy, grounded in compassion, science, and lived experience. If you've ever said "I feel stuck," this one’s for you.
