This week’s episode, "Check Yo Self B4 You Wreck Yo Self," delves into the profound impact of chakra balance on our physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being. Whether you are a seasoned spiritualist or a curious newbie, this episode offers a treasure trove of insights and actionable advice to help you embark on your healing journey.
~ Understanding Chakras: The Root Chakra
The episode begins with an introduction to the concept of chakras, the vital energy centers within our bodies that influence various aspects of our lives. The journey starts with the root chakra, located at the base of the spine. This chakra is associated with stability, security, and physical survival. An imbalanced root chakra can lead to feelings of insecurity and control issues. Qwanze shares a real-life example where Reiki alleviated severe knee pain caused by an imbalanced root chakra. She emphasizes the importance of grounding activities such as tree hugging and walking barefoot on grass to restore balance and enhance well-being.
~ Chakras and Personal Growth: The Solar Plexus and Heart Chakras
Moving forward, the episode explores the solar plexus and heart chakras, which play pivotal roles in personal growth. The solar plexus, associated with personal identity and self-perception, develops between ages 15 to 21. It is influenced by early relationships and is connected to fire signs like Leo, Aries, and Sagittarius. Signs of imbalance include physical health issues and a lack of self-confidence. Qwanze discusses how adolescence shapes these aspects and how early relationships can leave lasting imprints.
The heart chakra, developing between ages 22 to 28, is the center of love and connection. It challenges the conventional understanding of heartbreak, suggesting it is more about emotional experiences than a physical condition. Personal stories illustrate the profound impact of an imbalanced heart chakra, offering deep insights into emotional healing and balance. Qwanze shares how accepting and giving love can help in healing and fostering deeper connections.
~ Spiritual Growth: The Throat, Third Eye, and Crown Chakras
The episode then transitions to the higher chakras: the throat, third eye, and crown chakras. The throat chakra, associated with genuine communication, develops between ages 29 to 35. It emphasizes the balance of listening and speaking. Qwanze narrates a story of a friend who had throat issues due to constant need to defend herself, highlighting the importance of balanced communication.
The third eye chakra, or sixth sense, transcends physical and emotional biases, fostering intuition and imagination. It begins to develop between ages 36 to 42. Qwanze explains how this chakra helps in connecting with our higher selves and emphasizes that intuition is not limited to women, as commonly believed.
The crown chakra, developing between ages 42 to 49, symbolizes the quest for deeper meaning and purpose in life. It is associated with spiritual growth and understanding. Qwanze reflects on how this chakra's development coincides with midlife, a time when many seek more profound truths and purpose. She shares personal experiences and insights on how this chakra influences our spiritual journey.

In the concluding segment, Qwanze focuses on the importance of embracing love and self-care. She encourages listeners to celebrate their relationships and personal growth, emphasizing the need to replenish energy and practice self-care.
