Thank you to the publisher and to Net Galley. My review opinion is my own. This is from a series of books put out by the publisher named "The Holistic Series" which includes the books The Secrets of Aromatherapy, The Secrets of Crystals, The Secrets of Meditation and the Secrets of Numerology. Each book is a delight and a education. I especially enjoyed "The Secrets Of Chakras" for its outstanding illustrations and pleasing format. This is the perfect introduction to Chakra work for beginners and serves as a refresher to those with a knowledge of utilizing the Chakras. I enjoyed reading this beautifully formatted educational series and doing the exercises recommended by the author on the Chakras. Very well done to the author. |
A great beginners book for the introduction of chakras. I quite enjoy Jennie Hardings other "secrets of..." books and this one didn't disappoint. |
I received a complimentary digital copy of this arc book from the publisher and NetGalley in exchange for an unbiased review. This book provides an uncomplicated history of chakras and how people can energize themselves through the knowledge of chakras. The chakras names are explained along with its corresponding Sanskrit meaning. It is nicely illustrated to assist with understanding the chakras placement in the body. The author explains the seven chakras and their influence on holistic therapy and yoga. The chakras are displayed with corresponding therapies, yoga poses, colors, energizing movements and essential oils and crystals. This is a great addition to those who are interested in holistic health and learning more about Ayurveda techniques for optimal health. |
Some really good starting points to chakras and what you can to to connect with them. A good reference/ jump off book. the further reading section can be seen as somewhat as a bibliography - but it is not much. |
Such a good detailed book. Really simple to follow. Covers all different angles of chakras. Loved the in put on yoga moves, aromatherapy and gem stones. This book seems idiot proof- anyone could use it. |
Another great Secrets... book from Jennie. There's really indepth information of the main chakras, how to spot if they may be not working, how to fix that and even yoga for chakras. It makes really good reading for beginners as well as someone who already knows a bit. It's beautifully illustrated and full of colour. A really great book. |
Chakras is something i have recently been learning more about and this book was so incredible to help within my guidance. Laying out how the chakras are aligned and how they affect your body and spiritual energy and how to work them to clear your blockages. I loved how this book was laid out and easily understandable. |
Beautifully written and illustrated. I knew nothing about chakras before reading this book. And now I am so interested! I especially loved the helpful hints and tips to help with any issues you may have. The yoga moves were especially helpful. I can’t wait to put this into practice. I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily. |
When it is eternally snowy and cold outside, superspeed readers like me can read 250+ pages/hour, so yes, I have read the book … and many more today. LOL I requested and received a temporary digital Advance Reader Copy of this book from #NetGalley, the publisher and the author in exchange for an honest review. From the publisher, as I do not repeat the contents or story of books in reviews, I let them do it as they do it better than I do 😸. Secrets of Chakras is an accessible step-by-step guide to the principles of the chakras. A belief system related to yoga and the principles of Ayurveda from India, these wheels of colourful energy are not physical structures that you can see with your eyes. Instead, they are an energy map overlaying the physical structure of the spine that can be harnessed to balance your mind, body, and spirit. You can apply this energy map differently by using images, visualizations, activities, and healing practices. For example, you may get persistent throat infections or keep losing your voice, or you might be feeling unable to say what you really feel—these are signs that the throat chakra is underperforming and needs more energy. With this easy-to-follow book, find ways to explore, unblock, and re-energize the different chakras. You'll learn about: The specific profiles and body systems each of the main seven chakras claims as their domain Additional and less commonly referenced chakras How to bring each chakra's energy into your daily life and home The energy of the chakras is already in your body. Why not harness it for good? The Holistic Secrets series provides comprehensive explanations of the fundamental principles behind holistic techniques and methods. They explore practices in detail and offer advice in an accessible guide that teaches you about the power of these methods and how they can be harnessed to balance your mind, body, and spirit. These books—suitable for the beginner or the experienced practitioner—tell you everything you need to know about establishing a practice at home. This is from a series of books put out by the publisher named "The Holistic Series" which includes the books The Secrets of Aromatherapy, The Secrets of Chakras, The Secrets of Crystals, The Secrets of Meditation and the Secrets of Numerology. On their own, they are great as stand-alone titles. As a set, they are amazing - they are all well written and the authors know their stuff: in fact, some of them had earlier versions of their books. And the covers are things I want to copy the pattern of and paint (on a canvas). I have never looked into chakras before, but there is a course online that I am looking into that covers holistic treatments including chakras. I learned a lot from this book - it's an interesting read for people not knowing anything about them and there is so much information that I think even long-time chakra users would learn a lot. Great book. As always, I try to find a reason to not rate with stars as I love emojis (outside of their incessant use by "🙏-ed Social Influencer Millennials/#BachelorNation survivors/Tik-Tok and YouTube Millionaires/etc. " on Instagram and Twitter... Get a real job, people!) so let's give it 🌌🌌🌌🌌 (hey, they kind of look like chakras!) |

This is one of the best books I have read on understanding chakras. The fabulous colourful illustrations make a huge difference, and make it so much easier to read and understand. I loved the layout and the level of information provided. Definitely one to own in hard copy, and would also make a brilliant gift book. |

Fascinating book, clearly explains what chakra’s are and how to re-energize. I like the illustrations and photos to go alongside the wording. I can honestly say I have read other books about chakra’s and not really understood them, however this one makes perfect sense – finally an easy to read guide! I would definitely recommend this to anyone who is interested in learning about Chakra’s. Thank you NetGalley for my complimentary copy in return for my honest review. |
