Chakra meditation for a balanced energy center Even though the chakras are invisible, just like our souls, they have played a special role in healing and spirituality for thousands of years. Chakras can be described as subtle energy vortices. Life energy flows through these highly sensitive energy centers. Chakra meditation is very suitable for promoting one's own well-being. Certain meditation techniques enable the seven main chakras to function properly again and activate life energies. You feel how the meditation exercises positively influence the chakras, blockages are released, and life energy can flow freely. Seven main chakras are located along the vertical axis of our spine. Chakras are like receiving stations that distribute very different forms of energy throughout our bodies. Energies from the environment and from other people are absorbed and transformed. Thoughts and sensations can thus be perceived, and our bodies continue to develop. What does chakra meditation mean? Chakra meditation is the right method to cleanse, stimulate, and heal our chakras, but above all, to open them. Stress, grief, disappointments, or the intense pressures of everyday life drain our energy. Constantly recurring negative thoughts and sensations also burden the chakras. With chakra meditation, we can bring our subtle organs into harmony and improve and maintain their function. Problems and disturbances are detected in this way and you can see which chakras are affected. Chakras are opened through meditation and blockages are removed. Deep-seated fears, illnesses, unpleasant feelings, or traumas are detected. Chakra Meditation – also suitable for beginners You'll certainly need a little practice to get into chakra meditation. But it's much easier than most of us think. First, it's important to ground ourselves. Imagine fine roots growing from your feet and hands into the soil and anchoring themselves there. Afterwards, a warm, protective light surrounds you. Now think of the crown chakra, which is located at the top of the head. It absorbs light energy and allows this light energy to flow through our heart chakra and exit again. You feel the flow of energy and allow the light energy to flow through all your chakras. You begin with the topmost crown chakra, then the brow chakra, the throat chakra, the solar plexus chakra, the sacral chakra, and finally the root chakra. Through the visual light energy you create a light source that illuminates your body and your aura. Anyone can perform this simple basic exercise, whether beginner or advanced. The chakras are stimulated or opened and unhealthy energy vortices are balanced. If you practice this exercise regularly, the energy flow in the chakras can improve significantly. Harmonizing all the chakras requires some experience, but you'll soon notice a significant improvement in your energy system. Chakra meditation – for a special sense of well-being We should not only pay attention to our physical body, but also be mindful of our energy bodies and chakras. Chakra meditation is the heart of our chakra work. Each chakra has a very specific significance for our well-being. When we practice chakra meditation, we perceive and sense the various chakras. New realms of perception open up to us. Blockages, illnesses, traumas, and their causes can be resolved through more conscious interaction. Therefore, chakra meditations are intended to promote not only spiritual growth but also inner self-healing. A specific breathing technique supports energy work with the aim of relaxing, opening and cleansing the chakras, and energizing. Through chakra meditation we learn to treat our body, mind and soul more mindfully. Image © tommasolizzul / 123rf.com
