How to review your Aura & Chakras for a better life.
My usual blogs are about food and wine, but this one’s different. It’s about your Aura & Chakras and how to improve your health by knowing yourself. We are all spirits (energy) born into a temporary body, to allow our souls to learn, grow, give and help others. This is my opinion and how I view life. Our energy radiates through and out of our bodies creating Auras. Auras present themselves as colors, and I can see the colors.
I see colors when I concentrate on a person. Sometimes the color is overwhelming. Let me explain…
I don’t usually see a bright light radiating around a person (but I have), I see their color in my mind. Here is an example – think about the beach, do you see a picture of a blue ocean in your mind, the white on the waves, the tan sandy beach? That’s what I see. I may look at you and see a bright ruby gemstone with blue flickers in my mind, or a green field, a bright yellow sun. I may see a pink squares or a gray mist like a rainy day. The possibilities are endless. Most people I encounter have a base Aura color that rarely changes, it may have different intensities, hues and secondary colors but the overall color doesn’t change. I can tell if someones internal Chakras are in trouble because their Aura is dull or not as bright.
These external colors are called Auras, and they are important because they show your personality & health based on the energy you emit. Everyone also has internal colors called Chakras, these 7 colors balance your mental and physical health. Both of these colors directly relate to your overall health.
By the way I don’t connect with spirits who have passed over, but I know they are around and have had some experiences with them. I want to concentrate on the living and helping people understand how to improve their life and health through what I see. We all have to continually balance our Chakras to stay healthy and in balance. Life is an evolutionary journey, and at times it’s easy to get off our path because of the circumstances we face. When I reflect back on my life I notice the hardest battles I’ve fought have been with myself. My biggest challenge is letting go and letting God.
I have always seen these colors but have never really known what they mean. Even as a young child I remember my Dad and seeing him as the color red. He was a passionate man who know exactly what he did and didn’t like. I just recently started researching Auras and Chakras to learn what the colors mean to others. I think the colors I see do correspond to the explanations of Auras and Chakras I’ve researched.
How to see your Aura & Chakras:
- Think about yourself while you read the below statements:
- I am at peace with myself, stressful situations don’t bother me, I’m healthy and happy, and spiritual.
- I feel connected to God, have a sixth sense, empathy for others, and it’s easy for me to learn.
- I have lots of love and purpose in my life. At times life is hard and I work through it.
- I have been sad & life has been horrible for a long time, I’ve had one of the following happen and I’m having a hard time getting over it; a death, job loss or related problem, divorce or relationship issue, child problem etc.
- I’m an introvert, hard worker, sincere, love the outdoors, like TV, at times I’m a little self-centered.
- I have a non curable disease and know that my time left on this earth is limited. I have no energy.
- I have a 6th sense & know before anyone else when something is going to happen.
- I am loyal, able to love deeply, intelligent, creative, a little introverted, calm on the outside but sensitive inside.
- I like to help heal people (mentally or physically), I am compassionate and need peace in my life.
- I am happy, intelligent, feel like I’m filled with sunshine, and I’m bursting with great ideas to help others.
- I have courage, love food, am sensual, ambitious in life and have a good heart and want to help people.
- I have great passion about lots of things, life, work, politics, possessions, art, creativity, food, love and helping others.
- Which of the above statements resonate with you the most?
- Read the Auras & Chakras Guides that I have summed up from many sources below. We all have some of the traits but usually have more of a particular statement.
- Next see if you can visualize your own colors.
- Then visualize areas in your mind and body that need strengthening and/or releasing. Create balance & harmony in your life by taking control of your body, mind & spirit! Balance your Aura and Chakras with food, exercise, yoga, hormones, sunlight, positive thoughts, journaling, and medical advise if needed.

Chakras Guide
& Foods to eat based on how you are feeling.
1. Violet or White for Cosmic Consciousness Center & STRENGTH (Sahasrara Chakra)
This is your spirituality and enlightenment and what connects us to God, but also anchors us to life. This is also called the “I AM” Center. We are here to learn our souls purpose, be happy, love and help others, and enjoy the fruits of our labor. If this connection with God is weak you may feel a sense of being alone. If this Chakra is strong you will feel an inner light within the deepest part of your being.
Foods: Choose organic, pure foods. Don’t eat sweets, detox with plenty of water, green tea, ginger, smoothies made with spinach pineapple and Stevia, eggplant, purple cauliflower, mushrooms, garlic, ginger, onion, lychee, coconut and other tropical fruits, purple cabbage and healthy proteins such as nuts. Do not eat processed, packaged food with additives.

2. Indigo, Midnight Blue for PEACE (Third-Eye Chakra) Consciousness Awareness Center, Ajna
The third eye Chakra stimulates and unites both sides of your brain opening us up to imagination, wisdom , knowledge and intuition. An open third eye opens you to positive energy and wisdom to help you with your life journey. To stimulate your third eye eat purple healthy foods, be open to receive love and give love to others and animals. Continue to pray, meditate, practice yoga and exercise.
Foods: eggplant, purple cabbage, purple kale, concord grapes, purple carrots, black grapes.
Location: Center of the forehead, Sense: ESP, Element: Inner Sound (our inner thoughts) needed for spiritual growth.
3. BLUE for CALMING (Throat Chakra) – Cornucopia Center, Visuddha
A healthy Throat Chakra allows us to communicate effectively, share our feelings and express what we believe in, even if it means confrontation with others. When we are in good health with an open spirit we are able to receive spiritual guidance and inspiration (ask and you shall receive-activate your throat Chakra). If you are having thyroid gland problems this Chakra is out of balance.
Foods: blueberries or blackberries, black cherries, eggplant, black olives. Blue and black foods help to detoxify the kidneys and help to elicit honest communication.
Location: Base of the throat, Sense: Hearing, Element: Ether (5th element – energy that surrounds us – take advantage of God and spiritual guides/energy that are here to help you)
4. EMERALD GREEN for REJUVENATION (Heart Chakra) Living Love Center, Anahata
If you are overworked, stressed, have adrenal fatigue, an acidic ph level and are low on energy you need to heal your heart Chakra. You need to alkaline your body fast! This Chakra is in charge of your immune system so be kind to it. A strong immune system helps keep away cancer.
Foods: Go green by eating: kale, spinach, broccoli, lettuce, limes, green olives, melons, guacamole, green grapes, pears, collard greens, mixed green salad. Make a salad or smoothie and start feeling great due to the live enzymes, oxygen and chlorophyll that your body is gratefully receiving. Remember to also nourish yourself with love and positive energy.
Location: Middle of the Chest, Sense: Touch, Element: Air
5. YELLOW for JOY (Solar Plexus Chakra) Power Center, Manipura
If you are feeling depressed, sad or emotional, your Yellow Chakra is out of balance. Take a look at your face in the mirror, are your eyes bright or dull? Eyes are the window to the soul. This Chakra is all about how you feel about your self-worth, confidence, self-esteem, charging up your personal power and freedom of choice. If you are feeling low make sure you incorporate the below foods along with exposure to the sun, vitamin D, prayer, yoga, exercise, and meditation.
Foods: bananas, turmeric, saffron, nuts, sweet corn on the cob, some fresh pineapple, lemons, or some yellow peppers, real 100% cheeses (no cheese food), yellow apples. Yellow is a natural mood enhancer so eat something bright!

6. ORANGE for CONFIDENCE & SELF-WORTH (Sacral Chakra)
This Chakra is located below the navel and is associated with the emotional body, desire for pleasure, food and sex. If you retain emotions you may retain water causing bloating. Learn to feel and deal with your emotions. If you are feeling low, down on yourself, feeling unworthy of love, or bloated eat something orange!
Foods: like mandarin oranges, mangoes, cantaloupe, carrots, squash, pumpkin, orange peppers, sweet potatoes and yams will all make a big impact on your feelings.
Location: Reproductive system, Sense: Sense of taste, appetite, Element: Water
7. Red for ENERGY & Security Center (Root Chakra)
Balances our immune system, survival instincts and security. When we are fearful of something (health, money, job, relationships) we lose energy and deplete this Chakra. If you are experiencing fear as terror then you need to reboot your root Chakra ASAP through tapping into your inner strength with diet, prayer, meditation, yoga, and exercise.
Foods: Red foods such as pomegranates, tomatoes, strawberries, raspberries, red cabbage, beets, red grapes and a glass red wine 😉 will help to boost your energy levels and body temperature.
