    In yoga and some Eastern ways of thinking about the body, a chakra is a point where energy is said to move in and out. People often talk of seven main chakras along the spine, from the base of the body up to the crown of the head. Each one is pictured as a kind of wheel or spinning disc.

    In yoga and some Eastern ways of thinking about the body在瑜伽和一些東方的身體觀裡 a chakra is a point脈輪指的是一個點 where energy is said to move in and out能量據說會在那裡進出。People often talk of seven main chakras人們常常談到七個主要的脈輪 along the spine沿著脊椎排列 from the base of the body up to the crown of the head從身體底部一直到頭頂。Each one每一個 is pictured as a kind of wheel or spinning disc都被想像成一種輪子或旋轉的圓盤。

    Though actually, this is a belief and a teaching, not something a doctor can photograph in a hospital. In English class and in clinics you will not need it; you will hear it in yoga studios, wellness shops, and spiritual talk. Some English speakers also use it loosely for “a place of energy,” even when they are not really doing yoga.

    Though actually不過其實 this is a belief and a teaching這是一種信仰和教法 not something a doctor can photograph in a hospital不是醫生能在醫院裡拍照拍到的東西。In English class and in clinics you will not need it在英文課和診所裡你用不到它 you will hear it in yoga studios, wellness shops, and spiritual talk你會在瑜伽教室、身心靈用品店,還有靈性相關的談話裡聽到它。Some English speakers also use it loosely for "a place of energy,"有些英語使用者也會鬆散地用它來指『一個有能量的地方』 even when they are not really doing yoga就算他們根本沒在做瑜伽。
