It controls the functions of the kidneys, the bladder and the spine. Its functions are survival issues, creative expression and abundance, and it is the seat of Kundalini energy. 2. The Hara (Swadhisthan Chakra)
This is the area below the naval, in the front of the body, and an equivalent position on the back. It is functionally the center and controls the function of the reproductive organs, the ovaries and the testes. 3. The Solar Plexus (Manipur Chakra)
This is the area above the naval, and its corresponding side on the back. The Solar Plexus is connected to the stomach, the liver and gall bladder, and to digestive functions. This is the seat of feelings and emotions and is responsible for the flow of energy and the regulation of temperature throughout the body. It controls the power and wisdom. 4.
