Chakras • navel chakra

This chakra is located on the navel. It controls and energizes the small intestine, large intestine, and appendix. It affects the general vitality of a person. Malfunctioning of the navel chakra manifests as constipation, appendicitis difficulty in giving birth, low vitality and other diseases related to the intestines.

The word "ki" is used quite loosely to mean subtle energies. Ki is sometimes used to mean air prana, ground prana, red prana, and other types of prana. It is also used to mean a type of "biosynthetic ki" produced by the navel chakra. This "biosynthetic ki" is quite different from prana or life energy. It affects one's ability to draw in, distribute, and assimilate prana. During bad weather conditions, the quantity of air prana is quite scarce.

The body gets nutrients by drinking and eating and, in the process, produces hormones through the endocrine glands. The food, water and juices correspond to the different types of pranic energies that are absorbed by the energy body. The hormones produced by the body correspond to the biosynthetic ki produced by the energy body. The biosynthetic ki produced by the navel chakra is golden in colour.
