This is just materialistic scientist trying to explain it away since they cannot accept the reality. This is what I believe due to the evidence that I know first-hand, but you are free to believe whatever you wish.

Working with energy nah. Just try to be reasonable for a moment. If two people are seeing different colors, and each color objectively represents a particular frequency, then it has no objective reality. It's just a projection of a feeling using something similar to synaesthesia. It's cool that you have the ability to see what your subconscious hints at directly, but I wonder how much good the belief that you're "working with energy" does for you.
The concept of chakra originates in Hindu texts and features in tantric and yogic traditions of Hinduism and Buddhism. Its name derives from the Sanskrit word for "wheel" or "turning" (cakraṃ चक्रं [ˈtʃəkrə̃], pronounced [ˈtʃəkrə] in Hindi; Pali: cakka चक्क, Thai: จักระ, Telugu: చక్రo, Tamil: சக்கரம், Kannada: ಚಕ್ರ, Chinese: 轮, Tibetan: འཁོར་ལོ་; khorlo).[1]

Actually, most of those ideas have been around for a long time, the new age movement just seems to clump them all together.
Chakras are real on some level. I messed with them a little when I was studying healing, but never had to much to do with them, I just kind of learned about them, got to see mine once, and then moved on to other ideas. But as best I can tell, they do exist.

Wikilink Just so you can see it is a very old belief.
As to humans having souls, it depends on what you think a soul is. That is open to interpretation. I believe personally that I am a spirit in a human body, so to me it is the other way around, I am a spirit that has a body.
Reincarnation is also something that I believe in I actually got to relive the last two hours of my last lifetime after a meditation one night.
This is not a new age idea either.
I don't believe anything that I cannot experience for myself.
