Yes, that's cos cleansing means moving over them counter clockwise. After that (3-5 minutes minimum) go over it clockwise to sooth and smooth and charge it again.
You can do that with any chakra, works a treat.
I got that from Donna Eden, she can actually
see energy, and she does it this way over all chakras, which makes me question whether some chakras actually do turn the other way round. I mean, she sees energies...
And the theory that some move the other way is not supported by everyone.
Kind of feel for yourself I suppose and find out what works for you :)
I often cleanse my sacral chakra this way (in the shower, hihi). I then feel my throat and ears react to it, and my solar plexus as well.
It's truly like Donna Eden says; you don't necessarily have to work on all chakras, doing one is often enough to get the rest going as well.
You can check her work on YouTube, including how to test whether a chakra is working okay or not.
