Coming from a background of more than thirty years of meditation and chakra awareness, I found The Chakra Diaries by Becca Chopra a welcome addition to the literature. Most writing about energy in the spine, chakras, and meditation is pretty academic and esoteric. Chakra Diaries never goes there. Writing about the seven chakras (from the base of the spine to the crown of the head) and a variety of men and women characters, Becca Chopra brings these energies and actions into a world we all inhabit.
Spiritual center by center, chakra by chakra, Becca explores the effect of energy in each one, noting how one feels when the energy is blocked and showing how it is when one's energy flows freely. Religion per se may be passe for some of us, but spirituality is even stronger today than it was fifty years ago.
I especially liked the people we meet in Chakra Diaries, their unique attitudes about life, and their authenticity. Clearly, the author has listened closely to how men speak and think; her characters are appealing people who work with the positive and negative in life and one way and another work out their issues.
