Chakra Books are the perfect getaway whether you’re a passionate student or reiki practitioner. We’ve reviewed some of the best chakra books out there.
We love our spiritual development as much as the next person. As such, we love reading books that inspire us to go further in our deeper practice. One such section is the study of chakras!
Recently we had a chance to review the best chakra books available for current and aspiring yogis. Let’s have a look:
Best Chakra Books of 2020
1. Wheels of Life by Anodea Judith
Initially published more than 30 years ago, this book has created a very strong following long before social media or even digital media was even a thing. As the ultimate classic chakra book, this reference has become the gold standard.
For many, it’s the first time that they have learned about Chakras in their life. The publishers and author Anodea Judity have revised and updated this regularly over the years.
ANodea also read Eastern Body, Western Mind. This touches heavily also on the chakra systems of the body while also delving deeper into the Wheel of Life.
2. The Chakra Bible by Patricia Mercier
The thing about Chakras is that they require a holstic approach to balance properly. This comes in the form of tools and practice. We’re huge proponents of the need to regularly practice yoga and meditaiton to help you get closer into alignment.
In The Chakra Bible, Patricia helps us with step-by-step exercises that we can do quite easily to find ourselves into harmony. This includes the use of crystals, gems, essential oils, color therapy, affirmations and ancient wisdom.
You’ll love the high quality color photos inside this book which really represent how much time, effort and energy was needed to bring forth this resource. Patricia Merciers book is a solid contender for the #1 spot.
3. Chakra Awakening by Margaret Ann Lembo
We are hugely drawn to the Law of Attraction among other wonderful attributes that bring us all closer to the source of universal abundance. If you’re also a fan, then the Chakra Awakening book also has you covered.
This is also another high quality chakra book that’s perfect for both beginners and experienced yogis. You’ll find the right gemstones to get yourself into alignment as well as exercises which take just a few minutes.
If you jump inside of most spiritual Facebook groups, then this book is often a top recommendation for those who are developing their chakra balancing abilities. What’s unique is that this touches slightly more on Aromatherapy than the other two listed above.
4. The Book of Chakras by Ambika Wauters
Reading Ambika Wauter’s The Book of Chakras, you can’t help by feel that she’s really done her 10,000 hours towards spiritual mastery. She goes into depth on each chakra so you’ll know what fuels them and how they go out of balance.
For beginners, this isn’t really the best chakra book available and we would be more inclined to recommend the other books above. For those more experienced and looking for an in-depth and even advanced look at the energy centres of the body, then look no further!
The book covers individual auras and the processes of how these colors come about, while also teaching us about how to read auras effectively. It’s a holistic approach but also goes deep. Again – not one for the total beginner who just discovered the healing essence of chakras yesterday.
5. The Complete Book of Chakra Healing by Cyndi Dale
What a lot of chakra books don’t touch on is quantum physics. Science and spiritual development typically don’t go hand-in-hand but this book helps to at least partially bridge that gap. If you want a deeper dive into this world then look up Gregg Braden, Joe Dispenza and Bruce LIpton.
If you’re the chakra book collector in your tribe then pick up a copy of this one. It’s perfect for energy healers, psychic readers and yoga teachers who desire to bring their students into better alignment.
There are topics such as kundalini healing, transcendental meditation and more which other books aren’t so in-depth with. Naturally it also covers a range of different chakra healing modalities and systems.
6. The Chakra Book by Osho
We can’t forget Osho! We’ve left one of the best spiritual authors on the planet almost to the end. If you want a chakra book that has a truly holistic perspective where Indian and Chinese influences collide, then this book is ideal.
Who would we recommend it to? Everyone! The Chakra Book by Osho is ideal for intuitive healers and spiritual masters, as well as those only just learning about the need to balance their energy centres. We loved its holistic approach with modern-day discoveries and paired with ancient wisdom.
This author has several fantastic books that aren’t related to chakras but for spiritual development. If you haven’t yet heard of Osho then jump into his meditations and you’ll find yourself in a zen-like space in 5 minutes.
7. The Book of Chakra Healing by Liz Simpson
Liz Simpson and Teresa Hale have authored The Book of Chakra Healing. This book addresses the most common reason why people look in the spiritual world for answers towards their life’s most pressing questions.
It’s quite common that your chakras are out of alignment due to bad experiences in the past. This explains the rise of intuitive healers and yoga teachers. It feels like there is a new yoga studio and retreat centre opening up every single day!
The best part is that you don’t need to find an external source to help bring things back into alignment. This book goes into depth on how you can create healing and harmony with your body, mind and soul through various methods. For the beginner who wants to self-heal, then it’s hard to go past this fantastic reference.
Final thoughts
Congratulations on beginning to embark on this journey of inner enlightenment! Healing your chakras through yoga, meditation, diet, exercise, tarot, reiki and relationships are all wonderful. But…true healing comes from within. You’ll need to have full intention of finding stillness in the moment and allowing those negative emotions and blocked energy to simply melt away.
Start learning today about how chakras work with these books. They are a powerful reference and can help you massively in this spiritual journey ahead, without the expenditure or time required to attend retreats and workshops.
Let’s make the best of this spiritual existence. We only have one life, so it’s time to find true alignment and harmony!
