This book is about human energy, the energy body, and the 7 primary energy centers.

It shows how these centers affect the balance and harmony of the endocrine glands, your experience of reality, the level of your vitality, and the whole psycho-physical, spiritual organism. The practical aspects of the book consist of various forms of active and passive meditation, symbolic visualization and subtle touch methods for inner-outer integration. These pleasurable exercises can help you increase your energy, creativity, relaxation, health and spiritual well-being.
