How do you get chakra?

Chakra is not a thing which we get from outside it is always present inside us .But the problem is that we don't know how to use it. So to use it we require to do meditation. By meditation we obtain control over our chakra. So if you want chakra (I mean if you want to use it) then meditate. I guess one should meditate for at least 1-3 hrs a day to obtain not perfect but control over chakra.
