First Step

Guru Pathik nods his head in acceptance, “I will help you, and allow me to congratulate you on taking your first step, ‘asking for help,’ it takes tremendous strength to ask for help, especially when we think we do not deserve it. May I ask, what is your name?” Azula dries her eyes and settles her quivering lip, then smiles and says, “Azula.”

“Azula, I can help you gain balance within yourself, to do this you must open all the chakras within your body. First let us go over what chakras are: Chakras are pools of spiraling energy in our body. Life is messy and causes blocks in the pools, preventing the flow of energy. We need to remove these blocks. There are 7 chakras that go up the body. Each pool of energy has a purpose and can be blocked by a specific kind of emotional muck.”

Azula reseats herself to mimic Guru Pathik’s meditation pose then takes a deep breath and states, “Okay, I’m ready.” Guru Pathik nods his head in agreement.
