Regular practice of yoga and meditation awaken the chakras or the energy centers of the body which exude positive vibrant energies into the body and create peace, balance and wisdom. The main mantra of meditation is to begin with exploring the inner self asking questions on his/her own self and letting the inner soul answer it.
