The art by Alex Wayne is the big attraction. It is so good it won an award for best animation at the 2004 New York Independent Film Festival. This film is worth at least one viewing if only to see that part of it. But I noticed during my second viewing that there were plenty of details about the chakras that I was learning – and it could take many times through to get all the information firmly implanted into my brain.
Anodea Judith narrates throughout, explaining what each chakra does. Kundalini-Shakti, the mystical serpent, is seen in each segment as she makes her way from the root chakra to the crown chakra where she's reunited with Shiva, the supreme being.
This DVD is a great introduction to the chakra system for anyone who knows nothing about them, and for those who know a lot about the chakras, it is great entertainment. I can see myself having this DVD for my clients to view after I start my energy therapy practice. If I have an actual office with a waiting room, I will make this available for people to watch there.
I found Anodea Judith's website, Sacred Centers, and noted that she's offering a full course on self-diagnosis and healing in a six-CD set. I very much want to get this as I doubt I'll be able to attend her workshops any time soon. According to the website, Anodea Judith holds "Masters and Doctoral degrees in Psychology and Human Health, with lifelong studies of alternative medicine, yoga, mythology, history, sociology, systems theory, and mystic spirituality."

While we were watching the DVD, Bob asked me a couple of questions I would now like to ask you.
1. Have you ever seen a chakra?
2. What chakras do you most identify with?
(I'll come back and post my answers to the questions later, after others have had a chance to answer.)

As for ever seeing a Chakra. No, I haven't seen them, but I've felt them and seen the effects on a crystal suspended over them. The ones I identify most with is the third eye and the heart chakra. When I have a major loss or hurt in my life, my heart chakra becomes this totally wild, open thing. It feels like I'm split open down my front. But, when I was attuned by Reiki, my third eye was most affected. While my teacher was doing the attunment there, I saw a two symbols which later I found out are symbols for the third eye. She didn't tell me that for some reason, though. Maybe she thought it would be better for me to find out on my own. But, those have always been the strongest chakra's affecting my life.
There's way too much to see-and-record all the details. I saw, or was shown, what would be most useful for both me and for the models, who saw the draws at the end of the session.
