Energy, Color & The Body’s Hidden Map
If you’ve ever worked with me, you already know — I love color, energy, and a little bit of playful science.
As a child, I didn’t have the words for everything I saw or felt, so I turned to art, nature, and what I like to call risky play — climbing trees too high, painting past bedtime, daydreaming into entire worlds. That’s how I learned to process emotion and energy long before I knew what “energy work” even was.
Today, I guide both adults and children through that same language of color and energy — introducing the chakra system (our body’s energy centers and endocrine system) through holistic health coaching. Think of the chakras as a luminous map of how life force moves through us — influencing our moods, health, intuition, and creativity.
Energy flows up the spine and around the brain in an elegant spiral, feeding both our physical and emotional bodies. When that current moves freely, we feel connected, balanced, and fully alive.
Here’s how I like to teach it — simple, sensory, and fun — for both the grown-ups and the kiddos:
❤️
Root Chakra — RED
Adults/Teens:
Located at the base of the spine, this chakra governs elimination, security, and basic survival. When balanced, it gives you a deep sense of safety and confidence — the solid ground beneath every brave step.
Children/Tweens:
It’s where your bottom meets the earth when you sit — your “home base.” Safety, family, belonging.
🧡
Sacral Chakra — ORANGE
Adults/Teens:
Located below the navel, this center rules creativity, pleasure, and reproduction. When balanced, it sparks imagination, emotional flow, and vibrant life force.
Children/Tweens:
Two inches below the belly button — where new ideas and creative bursts are born!
💛
Solar Plexus Chakra — YELLOW
Adults/Teens:
At the navel point, where hundreds of nerves converge — your inner fire. This chakra fuels identity, willpower, and courage. When balanced, you stand tall in your personal power and digest life with ease.
Children/Tweens:
Two inches above the belly button — where your brave spark lives!
💚
Heart Chakra — GREEN (or pink)
Adults/Teens:
Located in the center of the chest, it bridges body and spirit — the balance point between lower and higher energy centers. When open, you feel compassion, forgiveness, and unconditional love.
Children/Tweens:
Right in the middle of your chest — pure love, simple and true.
💙
Throat Chakra — BLUE
Adults/Teens:
Found at the throat, connected to the thyroid gland, this is your voice of truth. When balanced, it helps you speak clearly, sing freely, and express yourself with confidence.
Children/Tweens:
At the base of your throat — where laughter, singing, and storytelling come alive.
💜
Third Eye Chakra — INDIGO
Adults/Teens:
Located at the center of the forehead, slightly above the brows. The third eye is your inner compass — the seat of intuition and insight. When open, you trust your inner knowing and see beyond logic.
Children/Tweens:
Right in the middle of your forehead — the place of dreams, imagination, and make-believe.
🤍
Crown Chakra — VIOLET (or white light)
Adults/Teens:
At the top of the head, this is the gateway to consciousness — your connection to spirit and universal wisdom. When in flow, it brings bliss, unity, and divine awareness.
Children/Tweens:
This one floats just above your head — your spirit’s light, the part of you that shines beyond your body.
“The body is the vehicle, consciousness the driver. Practicing kindness and mindful living is the path — and the chakras are the map.”
When we learn to tune in to these energy centers — in ourselves and our children — we build awareness, resilience, and harmony from the inside out. It’s a reminder that healing doesn’t have to be complicated or clinical. It can be colorful, curious, and full of play.
Learning to tune in to your energy system isn’t about becoming someone new — it’s about remembering who you already are. Each color, each vibration, tells a story about where your energy wants to flow.
Whether you’re an adult seeking alignment or a child learning self-awareness, the message is the same:
Your body is wise. Your energy is sacred. Your health is in your hands.
