Chakra Quiz

This quiz is from the chakra course and is designed to help you determine which chakras are most in need of balancing. Check off the statements that are true for you. The answers follow the statements.

Please note: Reference is made in some of these statements to physical conditions. I am not suggesting that you bypass consulting a medical professional for such conditions. Neither this or any other information on the Beyond the Rainbow web site is intended to replace assistance from the practitioner of your choice.

The more statements you check off relating to one chakra, the higher its priority.

If you would like to learn more about this course, please go to http://www.rainbowcrystal.com/crystal/class.html

This course is now available as an ebook for $15. See the above link for ordering information or go directly to http://eftconsultations.com/eftandcrystals/class.shtml
