There is much insight to be gained from Eastern philosophy’s perspective on psychology. Ancient yogis discovered psychosomatic processing centers within the body called chakras. Together with the psyche, these chakras witness, assimilate, and store information. The primary stages of development of the psyche and the chakras take place in our formative years and the body-mind creates behaviors, narratives and characteristics based on the events that shape us during these years. These narratives, beliefs and behaviors which create our world view, may benefit from being examined and challenged. Updating the manner in which we process and perceive the world empowers us to manifest the reality of our choice.
