From my perspective, there is a far more organic way to balance your energy centers than trying to metaphysically manipulate each one and it is simply analyzing your emotional state.
Every experiences that you have is run through the gauntlet of your energy center gateway system, from red upwards until it hits a blockage. So your first response to a experience will be how it may continue to sustain survival, then how it relates to the personal, the social, in terms of empathy, in terms of free communication, in terms of how it relates to the universal, and then in terms of the sacred divine. If you don't have blockages for the lower energy centers then the considerations of those vibrational levels will generally occur below the threshold of conscious awareness and you will not be greatly aware of them.
Anyway, the point is, each of these blockages will manifest on the emotional continuum. Having said that, the emotional continuum is relative to you, and you only. For example, one person's emotional state will not necessarily represent the same blockage or unblockage as that of others, because we are all at different places of development. Someone who is vibrating in depression will find a state like anger to actually be more positive than someone who was vibrating in frustration because to the person in depression, anger is actually less blocked energetically. To a person vibrating in frustration, boredom would be slightly more positive. So you see, what feels negative or positive is completely relative to where you dwell energetically on a day to day vibrational continuum of beingness.
The next thing to understand is that these blockages occur as a result of your conscious and unconscious thoughts. Your emotions are your direct awareness of the blockage or free flow of energy caused by what you place your attention on consciously and subconsciously. Subconscious thoughts are just conscious thoughts that you got so used to thinking that you think them without even being aware of it anymore. So some soul searching is generally in order to see the limitations in your perception. The reflection of others input is helpful as well in this regard as others often point out the gaps in our perspective.
Also, don't get too hung up on the "locations" of chakras. The nature of all consciousness is that it is ultimately pure subjective energy which is formless. As the energy steps down (or outwards if you prefer) from the core of self, it becomes more "objective" or "projected outwards". So for example, your dreams are your projection of subjective energy into "objective symbols". So what we call the "objective" is really a quasi subjective illusion. In reality, there is no "objective world". What we call "objective realities" are "consensus realities". But a consensus reality is just a subjective reality with multiple perspectives averaging themselves out (which stem from an even greater purely subjective state). Anyway, my point is, that location is an illusion. The locations of "chakras" are symbolic in nature -- the result of pure or raw subjective energy translating itself down to its best objective symbolic manifestation.
If that sounds too confusing, simply realize that physical reality is just a very tangible dream, and as a dream, all tangible qualities in that dream are expressions of deeper underlying reality that, of itself, does not have form. It is like if I asked you to paint a picture of "love", what images would you use to "reflect" that? So all physical forms, all tangible forms, are simply virtualizations of processes in consciousness, that you are simply translating in a tangible way.
So with this discussion what is the best way to "balance your chakras"? Well from my perspective it is honestly working through your own experiences, emotionally, in clear and focused way. Focus on those things that make your heart sing with joy. Be optimistic. Assume the best, rather than the worst. Don't put too much pressure on yourself. Leisure time is not wasted time. Get enough sleep. Eat foods that make you feel great. Listen to music that raises you up emotionally. Learn that your mind is a tool that may used positively or negatively, and using that tool 24/7 will burn you out. Sometimes balancing is best brought about by simply being aware of the present moment. Don't analyze, just be. I can't count the number of times I unblocked myself by simply focusing on the NOW. Look for the bliss in things that you previously thought were only painful. I've made headaches/toothaches go away by learning to love the pain, and finding the bliss in it. You can heal yourself by changing your perspective in this way.
[And on the subject of diet, you can learn to "feel out" what foods are the most nutritious for your particular vibrational makeup. You don't have to rely on the topsy turvy shifting tides of nutritional sentiment to understand what will make your body thrive.]
If you have physical actions to take care of during the day, try to spend some time getting yourself into a good mood, before you do them. They will be a hundred times more effective because all actions are simply after effects, or manifestations, of your core vibrational state. You are always acting from inspiration, the question is: what vibrational level is that inspiration coming from? Is it coming from a vibrational place of frustration, or a vibrational place of peace? I repeat, your actions which you think are a wholly conscious act, are simply after-effects. So use your mind to get into desirable emotional state, and then do whatever you need to do.
"Healing occurs when a mind/body/spirit complex realizes, deep within itself, the Law of One; that is, that there is no disharmony, no imperfection; that all is complete and whole and perfect. Thus, the intelligent infinity within this mind/body/spirit complex re-forms the illusion of body, mind, or spirit to a form congruent with the Law of One."
