How universe reflects in the human body
Health arises from grounding the body's energy through the feet. The foot soles contain vital chakras connected to glands and nerves. Rubbing them activates energy. Walking barefoot on earth or on a bed of gravel at home draws direct energy from the planet, benefiting the entire body, especially the thyroid and heart. This earth chakra is the foundation. Above it are vegetation chakras from the ankles to the knees, and then animal chakras to the hips. These centers connect to the classical chakras like Viśuddhi and Anāhata. The elements and the sound 'Oṃ' emanate from the supreme resonance, Śiva, the source of all creation. Health depends on proper nourishment and spices, not just physical exercise. The soul is one, beyond gender.
"Rub from the top of the toes to the heel."
"Walk on this gravel in your own room... What will happen is unbelievable."
