Inner work and energy are inseparable.

What are the ñawis?

 

Your body is more than physical. It’s a living energetic field with various centres of awareness — the ñawis (literally “eyes”). Together, they form a refined system that holds your instinct, your emotions, your truth and your vision.

 

When these centres flow freely, you feel present, connected and attuned. When they are blocked, you live in survival and repetition.

 

 

 

Ñawis vs. Chakras

 

In many systems, chakras are described as spinning wheels of energy, often linked to colours or levels beyond yourself. In this tradition, we don’t use that model. Ñawis are not abstract centres floating above your head or far outside your field. They are human and tangible, places in your body where awareness, life force and lived experience meet.

 

There is no hierarchy where one centre is “higher” or “better” than another.

Everything you need is already within you.

Not somewhere far away, but here, in this body, in this moment.

 

The way back to yourself is not about ascending, but about descending, grounding more deeply into your own essence.

 

Some traditions speak of dozens of chakras beyond the physical field. Yet that focus can easily pull you away from your body and your own truth. This approach invites you to turn inward, to meet everything within yourself, without the need to escape into higher realms.

 

 

 

Siki ñawi – Foundation

 

 

Located in your lower back and pelvis, this centre connects you to impulse, timing and action. When blocked by fear, shame or control, you lose touch with your instinctive knowing. Life becomes about what “should” be, instead of what feels true for you. Old fears are often stored here. It is the base of your inner sense of direction.

 

 

Qosqo ñawi – Fire and emotion

 

The qosqo is your primary power centre, the place of emotional energy, creative commitment and determined movement. It is where intention becomes action, where your inner will translates into doing, persisting and creating.

When anger, frustration or grief are stuck here, the flow becomes disturbed. Your system either freezes or swings into chaos and explosiveness, because the energy is not being felt or grounded.

 

The qosqo also connects you to your environment. Here, you sense what feels right and what doesn’t. When out of balance, your boundaries blur and you become overwhelmed. When clear, your energy flows with warmth and purpose. You no longer act from survival, but from connection.

 

 

Sonqo ñawi – Love under will

 

The sonqo ñawi is your energetic heart. Here lives munay, love guided by conscious intent. Not just emotional impulse, but a deep force of compassion and clarity.

Through this centre you feel what is right, not as fleeting emotion but as direction from your being. The sonqo holds no hucha (heavy energy). It is a pure centre and the key to awakening your potential.

When clouded by fear, self-rejection or adapted behaviour, its light dims. A clear sonqo opens the door to who you truly are. From here, you can activate your Inka Seed and live from essence rather than survival.

 

 

Kunka ñawi – Expression and truth

 

The kunka ñawi is the centre of expression, integrity and communication. Here, yachay — your inner knowing, flows outward as rimay — your words and voice.

If you have learned to please, to silence yourself or to censor your truth, an energetic dissonance arises. You feel one thing but say another. This leaves you tired, empty and, over time, invisible.

When this point is clear and active, you reclaim inner authority. Your words carry strength, awareness and connection.

 

 

Qanchis ñawi – Vision and clarity

 

The qanchis ñawi, also called the seventh eye, is located in the middle of your forehead. Together with the left and right eyes, it forms an energetic triangle through which you perceive reality:

 

• The left eye sees the world from your inner self.

• The right eye sees from a rational and relational perspective.

• The qanchis ñawi perceives the deeper layers beneath both.

 

When these three eyes work together, integrated vision emerges. Without grounding, however, you get lost in mental noise. True vision requires presence in your body and in your life.

 

 

Your Inka Seed – Essence

 

Beneath emotions and thoughts lies something that cannot be broken, your Inka Seed (Inka Muyu). This subtle, pure centre below the sternum holds the blueprint of who you truly are, and who you can become.

It is not a role, not a belief, not even a trait. It is your essence, beyond your story.

 

When you live from your Inka Seed:

• You act from inner guidance.

• You speak with truth.

• You choose with loving intent.

 

As long as this centre remains asleep, you live only part of yourself. But every step into awareness and self-love brings you closer to this light.

Important: The Inka Seed is not a ñawi. It does not “do” or transform like a functional centre, but is a subtle energetic field of potential and remembrance, a quiet blueprint that remains even when other layers are out of balance.

 

 

 

Energy without judgement

 

In many spiritual traditions, guilt or fear is used to keep people within a framework.

That you must “repay karma”, that you are “wrong”, that you must “ascend” to become worthy.

 

In the Andean view, this does not exist.

There is no hierarchy, no fear, no moral judgement about who you are or what you have lived.

 

Energy is simply energy.

It either flows or it stagnates. Nothing more.

 

When these layers are blocked:

• You feel absent from yourself.

• Your mind overworks while your body feels numb or tense.

• You experience emptiness, insecurity and exhaustion.

• You live in survival and repetition rather than connection.

 

Energy work is not a technique or theory, but a way of returning home to yourself. By releasing heavy energy (hucha), allowing your emotions, and grounding awareness in your body, you restore contact with your natural strength, your love and your truth.

 

 

 

Why this matters for recovery

 

Blockages in these centres are not abstract or “esoteric” ideas. They are tangible knots in your body and emotions that shape how you think, feel and respond.

 

It is not your mind that drives your emotions, it is your emotions that drive your brain.

When these layers are disrupted, you act from survival instead of conscious choice.

 

Recovery does not begin with affirmations or positive thinking.

It begins when your body is allowed to feel again, to breathe again, to soften and relax.

Only then can your potential start to move.

 

 

When everything flows again

 

When hucha is released and no longer stuck:

• You can clearly sense what belongs to you.

• Choices become natural and grounded.

• Your mind settles, because your body has switched “back on”.

 

You return to your own ground. Not as a concept, but as a lived reality.

That is where true recovery begins, not from the head alone, but from your whole being.

 

 

How to begin

 

If you’re curious, you can book an introduction or a first session.

You don’t have to prove anything.

You don’t have to become anything.

You can simply come home.
