SUMMARY:Chakrology\, Chakras Demystified: Neuroscience & Behavioral Correlates of Chakra.
DESCRIPTION:Register for the Distinguished Speaker Series (DSS) and find more details. \nVaYU\, the 1st Yoga University outside India located in Los Angeles\, USA\, is delighted to offer its 1st Distinguished Speaker Series Webinar of 2026 with the following exciting virtual session on Sunday\, March 1\, 2026  5:30 PM PST \nTitle: Chakrology\, Chakras Demystified: Neuroscience & Behavioral Correlates of Chakra.  \nSpeaker: Nick Shroff\, MD\, FACS\, E-RYT Professor\, Research & Teaching Faculty\, VaYU\, President of the American Prostate Cancer Foundation (APCF)\n \nViewed through the lens of contemporary neuroscience\, the Chakra System reveals meaningful intersections between ancient yogic theory and modern understandings of energy\, vibration\, neural networks\, and neurophysiology. Traditional texts describe chakras as dynamic centers of pranic flow that influence physical\, emotional\, and spiritual well-being. These neural networks\, like pacemakers\, are characterized as oscillating\, semi-autonomous\, rhythmic bioenergetic fields associated with neurotransmitters\, endocrine activity\, and autonomic regulation. \nInterpreting the nadis as subtle analogues to neural pathways and examining how cognitive patterns\, behavioral habits\, and yogic practices influence these centers helps connect traditional philosophy with emerging models of mind–body integration. Emotions expressed in the chakra networks are often felt as physical symptoms\, as in somatization. \nWhile neuroscience primarily focuses on anatomy and has yet to fully incorporate quantum or energetic frameworks\, the Chakra System offers a complementary perspective that emphasizes neural pacemakers\, vibrational fields\, coherence\, and the interplay among consciousness\, neuroanatomy\, and physiology. Research has highlighted the benefits of yoga in supporting balanced energy and promoting psychological well-being. \nRegister for the Distinguished Speaker Series (DSS) and find more details.
