Seven Chakras of Leadership is a transformative guide for leaders seeking to align their inner energy with their professional impact.

At the book’s core is the concept of The Journey—a practice inspired by Shamanism, inviting leaders to explore their inner world and align their energy centers, or chakras, to unlock their fullest leadership potential. The authors provide actionable tools rooted in ancient traditions—such as meditation, breathwork, energy healing, and chakra alignment—tailored to the demands of modern leadership. Using the chakra system as a framework, the book maps each chakra (root, sacral, solar plexus, heart, throat, third eye, and crown) to critical aspects of leadership development. By linking chakra principles to evidence-based practices such as emotional intelligence, mindfulness, and transformational leadership, leaders will gain practical insights into how balancing their energy centers can enhance decision-making, foster resilience, and improve team dynamics. Addressing both the empowering and shadow aspects of these energy centers, the book equips leaders with practical tools, reflective exercises, and action steps to navigate challenges, build self-awareness, and drive meaningful transformation in their organizations.

With templates for energy management and chakra assessment, whether you’re a corporate executive, manager, or entrepreneur, this book equips you with practical strategies to balance your inner compass and develop conscious, compassionate leadership.
