I love this book! It’s compact, informational, mixing chakra training with Vedic insights and fun facts to how to create some great teas and tonics. The writing is conversational with no attitudes to express. Just a fun, joy- filled book to bring clarity and wellness to all even if you want to ignore the chakra orientation.
Collins has succeeded in providing us fresh, natural and sometimes raw food juice and blend recipes that are tasty and nutritious.
I love the “fortifying fig shake” but the “sunrise juice” is also a great way to start the day. She throws in a few mantras to bring ourselves joy and celebrate our existences while offering some historic bits of advice from one of the oldest spiritual disciplines of our planet.
The book is uplifting, fun to read and a great reference when you’re feeling like you need recharging.
You will find explanations of the chakra system, Vedic spiritual teachings, juice, tea and tonic recipes that are nutritious and spiritually uplifting.

Whimsical little book which artfully combines healthy juice/smoothie/tea recipes in relation to the corresponding chakra. Such a creative idea, i think this book would make an interesting gift or excellent conversation starter for someones coffee table. Thank-you Elise Marie Collins.

I found this book to be a nice read on the energy centers in the body and the means for promoting healing and wellness. Nice combination granting one the opportunity to expand their conciousness and delight in the elixers that heal each aspect.

Chakra Tonics is a multifunctional book. This book starts off noting the basic foundational beliefs about chakras, explaining that there are numerous philosophies and interpretations and the reader should explore these variations in order to come up with his or her own theories in this regard. I really found this aspect refreshing as many such books never admit that there are alternative thoughts on the subject let alone encourage the reader to make up his or her own mind.
The rest of the book explores each of the chakras describing the location, purpose, color, sound, and various problems often associated with energy blockages. Included for each section are recipes that the reader can replicate. The intended purpose of these recipes is to balance out the energy in particular chakras.
All of the recipes provided are either fresh juicing recipes or smoothie recipes made with fresh fruits, vegetables, and nuts. In my mind, these recipes simply provide new and creative ways to provide healthy energy building nutrition into the body rather than opting for caffeinated, carbonated drinks that reduce natural energy. If they also help balance chakra energy that’s just an added bonus.

CHAKRA TONICS: ESSENTIAL ELIXIRS FOR THE MIND, BODY AND SPIRIT could also have been featured in our Spirituality section but is reviewed here for its broader appeal to audiences interested in juices, shakes, smoothies and drinks which have healing and beneficial properties as well as taste appeal. From a Fig Shake with cinnamon believed to help diabetics to a high vitamin C Hibiscus Shake, drinks are very easy to make up with a minimum of specialty ingredients and CHAKRA TONICS organizes recipes by health benefit for easy consultation.
