What has Wimbledon got to do with the Chakras?

I was watching the Men's final yesterday with some friends (and eating plenty of strawberries and cream!) After it was finally all over (what a slog!) I remarked that the players must have very strong, balanced Chakras.  One of my friends suggested I write a post for my blog, so here it is!  This is what I came up with: 

• Root Chakra is for absolute physical peak performance
• Sacral Chakra for flowing movement and emotional control
• Solar Plexus Chakra for self belief 
• Heart Chakra for good sportsmanship
• Throat Chakra for being able to do an interview straight after the match in what is usually not the player's mother tongue 
  Brow Chakra for the vision of being able to win 
• Crown Chakra for believing in a 'higher force' - ever seen how often players show gratitude, look up to 'heaven' or cross themselves?

Any of your feedback thoughts on this would be very welcome.

This poem is by Anthea Courtenay, who did the Chakra Psychology In Depth course in 2009.  Anthea is a writer, an artist and a poet, and she sent me this poem after reading the last post on Beauty & the Chakras and ageing.  I hope you enjoy it:

TRAVELLING 

Old age is another country.
You don’t think you’ll ever go there,
You certainly don’t plan to.
I don’t remember buying a ticket!
But you don’t need a ticket,
You just keep on travelling,
and suddenly you’re there.

Old age is a country whose inhabitants
discuss blood pressure and aching joints,
and repeat themselves,
and imperceptibly shrink.
A country where the names of things
slip down the back of  your brain
(Who was that actor?  His name began with a B.)
perhaps to emerge later
when you’re thinking of something else.
 
It’s a country where you need to come to terms
with those things you have done
that you wish you had not done,
and above all, those things
you have not yet done or said.
 
You don’t need a passport, just keep on travelling -
and be grateful you didn’t have to get off earlier.
