When
we work with the belief behind the power of the chakras and their
meanings on a physical, mental and spiritual level, we cover
just about every problem you can imagine. Our way of dealing
with pain, fear and stressful issues that cause us not to function
in a positive way, is the way to go when all the other conventional
methods have not worked. We approach these issues in a way in
which we teach people how to heal themselves.
How?
By taking back their own personal power. We do it in a way that
is not stressful and does not cause a lot of pain. By using imaginative
and creative meditation. It is almost subliminal in its effect.
We teach that if your life is crappy, that you can learn to paint
a different, more positive way of life and deal with the problems
we all face in a more effective manner. If you cannot recognise
the problem within the mind, inner healing will work with your
subconscious and create a healing experience. Once trust has
been established, then this healing can be spread over the whole
body. This causes the mind to come to the party and healing takes
place on all levels.
I
do not pretend to be trained by the normal standards on helping
people. My experience comes by associating and working with people
as a Reiki - Seichim and Ki Manna Master and Alternative Therapist.
My experience comes from life itself. I have not got all the
answers, but I do know what I know, and that knowledge is that
we have been living in a life that has been covered and sheltered
from the reality of our true self. The solution is to learn about
awareness.
Awareness
is when we realise that something is wrong with ourselves and
our lives, because we are not happy. We become aware. This is
the first step to healing. The second step is to find out how
to release ourselves from self imposed entrapment. The solution
comes by learning how to unlock and release our pain, fear and
worry. Through experience, I know that inner healing will help
bring this about. With inner healing we learn how to slow our
minds . We learn how to relax. We learn how to put ourselves
in a state where we can work through all our problems in a gentle
and loving way. We teach you an alternative method of healing
using a different type of wisdom that can enhance your life.
I use all sorts of unconventional methods to do this. The most
important thing is that while you are trying to heal yourself,
you will have fun doing it. In the past we have made it hard
on ourselves - I hope to bring back the joy of living and to
make it less difficult. The third step is to learn to bring back
your personal power. When you have regained your power , you
are able to heal your life. Nobody but you can fix your problems.
People can teach you how to become aware, and they can show you
ways to deal with your problems, but when it comes to the crunch,
you are the only one who can right your life . You have to learn
to take responsibility for your own life.
The
first method I use is a program that teaches you about the chakras
and their meanings in our lives on the physical level. We then
discuss the emotional effects the chakras create when unbalanced
and we learn how to balance them. This brings about healing on
the spiritual level. This level is the most powerful. Our spiritual
level is where we, ourselves, make our own judgments and decisions
upon which we reach a state of peace. This peace brings us an
awareness of our problems. We then face these problems in a way
that is fun, relaxing and healing. We are unable to heal if our
mind is in a state of confusion, fear and worry. Firstly, we
slow the mind . When that is done, we are able to look at things
in a more balanced way. Our head is clear and we can recognise
and face the truth behind our problems.
The
Base Chakra
The
base chakra is the energy centre which controls our energy levels,
our connection to the earth and our ambitions. Also our legs,
lower back and the base of our spine. There is an old saying
that we use when we are in trouble. That saying is, that we must
get to the root of the problem so that we can heal the situation.
This is true in the physical, mental and spiritual.
The
base chakra is the root of our manifestation, our existence.
When we learn about our base or root chakra we come to understand
that this centre is the base to past - lives, and our present.
It is our connection to the earth and to the physical. How we
function on this level depends on how this centre is working.
If we are tired, run down and lack ambition and drive, it is
because this centre is not working or absorbing enough positive
energy to help us sustain the high levels needed to work, play,
think and feel. We need to reconnect to this centre and work
with it on a daily basis.
To
do this, we have to invoke inner healing that comes from ourselves.
This chakra needs to be flooded with positive energy and positive
love. Love comes from the heart centre and flows through the
body and out through the aura. How others perceive us or react
to us is because of the energy that we emanate from our auras.
Love is an energy that is able to heal any sickness, emotional
stress and fear that we have locked inside. Love is an energy
that is pure, cleansing and can be quite exhilarating. We all
know about emotional love, especially when we first fall in love.
However, there is more to this emotion.
This
energy when properly functioning becomes unconditional. When
this happens it becomes a healing energy that can create miracles
and change your life around for the better. We all have this
energy inside of us. We have to learn how to open it up inside
and send it out. But first we must learn how to use it on ourselves.
I know that we would all like to fly in the heavens, free from
all worries, sickness and stress, but I believe that we can do
this on our earthly existence. Our base chakra is the centre
that can help us achieve health, groundedness and vitality. This
chakra can also unlock our past - lives to help bring old talents
and wisdom into this lifetime.
This
chakra can also remove any past- life negative patterns and pain
that might be hindering our present life. In many old cultures
they believe in the wheel of life. We believe that we go through
cycles of birth, death and re-birth. Throughout one lifetime
we experience these cycles many times. Each time we go through
a death there is a chance to re-create our birth in a more healing
and positive way. The base is our root. our connection to the
earth, who we are as humans and how we live our life in each
birth and death cycle. When we heal this chakra and have it pulsating
with positive healing energy we are able to heal our past, and
we learn to function in a vibrant and alive way for the present
and the future. On a physical level, this chakra can be the cause
of back ache, leg aches, overweight, underweight, anemia and
so on. These problems arise as emotional baggage that we store
in our back, spine and legs. When we have no energy and lack
ambition and drive, it is because we have no connectivness to
ourselves and our Mother earth. By learning to become connected
to the physical we can eliminate many back, leg and circulation
problems. These areas become affected because we store in and
hold onto our emotional baggage.
With
inner healing we can open ourselves up to any problems we have
in this area. With creative visualisation we become open and
exposed to the higher levels of consciousness that these chakras
respond to positively. With the use of colours, we can expose
ourselves to vitality, energy and healing that is activated when
we wear certain colours and use them in our lives. Red represents
life, fire, growth and the burning away of negativity and weakness.
Red is the earth, the soil, the stones and trees. Red makes you
wake up and feel alive. The colour red heals, regenerates and
inspires enthusiasm and a will to live. Dancing, music, and drumming
also opens up and brings in positive healing energy into our
base chakra. We all have an eternal beat, that when we tap into,
helps us to become open and alive once more. We sometimes become
unbalanced due to the fact that we have lost our personal beat.
Through song, dance and physical movement we can become aligned
once more. The stone people are the oldest spirit clans alive
on earth. These people are the earth and as such, hold the key
to our evolution. They hold our secrets and our past - lives.
Through the use of the stone people we are able to work with
each chakra to unlock and heal any blockages that we are holding
within our being. When we place them on our energy centres they
activate and connect you back to the earth. Clear quartz is a
good crystal that is good for healing with the base chakra. Clear
quartz brings clarity and understanding. It will help you to
unlock any past burdens, fears and baggage that you are holding
onto. This crystal will also unlock wisdom and knowledge that
you have also stored away. Through the use of animal awareness
and their spiritual wisdom we can also heal our energy centres
through spiritual contact with these animals. If you need to
learn about groundedness and stability, you would call on the
turtle and her ways. Any four legged animal would help you to
reconnect in some special way.
The
Sacral Chakra
The
sacral chakra is the energy centre that controls your passions.
It also controls your sexual needs. It also activates the abundance
that you allow into your life for fulfillment of your desires.
It governs your lower sexual organs, your bladder, bowel and
lower intestine. This centre is where you fund your creativity
on the physical level. When functioning positively, it creates
a sense of well-being which is your ability to feel good about
yourself. When this chakra is aligned and balanced, your emotions
are stable and you are able to express your true feelings to
others without fear or exaggeration.
When
you learn about your personal expression you become more self
confident, in yourself and your dealings with others. When functioning
properly - you become open, expressive, creative and spontaneous.
When negative and not functioning positively, you may have a
low self esteem and may think that you are ugly and that you
have nothing worth giving to others. You could have a low sex
drive and find it hard to communicate and respond to your own,
and the opposite sex. These kind of people deny themselves pleasure
and can become martyrs. They may also give of themselves and
their bodies without any real emotion. This sets up patterns
of self sacrifice. The Sacral is also about ourselves as men
and woman. For a woman it is all about our femininity. For men
their masculinity. This energy centre has caused a lot of conflict
and emotional pain for many people within this age of awareness.
This is because it has been flooded with too much sexual responsibility.
This centre is all about passion, freedom and personal expression
which can sometimes be mistaken purely for sexuality. We have
a right to express ourselves and our feelings, but we have to
learn that sometimes passion is related to artistic and creative
pursuits rather than sex, and relationships with others. We have
focused all of our desires and passions onto others, and we have
neglected to allow the energy to flow within ourselves.
Even
though this chakra is all about the physical love that we experience
with others, it is much more. We have over focused on this area
and shut down the other attributes that this energy centre has
to offer. A lot of stomach dis-orders happen because this chakra
is dysfunctional. This is because there are issues with others
and how we relate and express emotions outside of ourselves.
Sexual abuse also causes this chakra to become unbalanced. People
who suffer sexual related diseases are caused through the chakra
becoming exposed and vulnerable to negativity. When we flood
this chakra with healing energy, we experience well - being,
which is when we love and appreciate ourselves and our body.
When we focus on this chakra and heal ourselves, we may find
ourselves questioning our feelings towards our friends and lovers.
The veil has lifted and we may find that once we have become
healed, that these people in our lives are not giving to us enough.
By recognising and working with unconditional love and healing
we can recreate our friendships and relationships to way that
our emotions and needs are met. We can heal our past and make
way for our future. When working positively, we are able to experience
more happy and fulfilling friendships and relationships. We are
more open, understanding and compassionate. We learn to open
our creative side and we become filled with a desire to learn
about art, music, dance and spirituality. We are more open to
nature and all her wisdom and beauty. Our creative talents open,
and we begin to explore new horizons.
The
colour orange is a powerful colour that invokes passion, creativity
and vibrancy. The more colourful and bright the orange the more
avant-gare you feel. The more earthly and brown looking the orange
the more connected to the earth and mother nature. Orange is
a mixture of powerful red and willful yellow. Power and will
ignite together to create an explosion of strength self esteem
and vitality. When you use this colour with your sacral chakra,
you are able to invoke this energy into your body. This will
create an effect of joy, self expression, freedom and fun. Music,
song and dance that has a stimulating and passionate rhythm will
also help to unlock your inner passions and your true personality.
Painting, writing and drawing will also help you to learn how
to express your inner feelings by allowing you to release any
inhibitions that you may have hidden inside of you. By expressing
this way, you are able to view your true feelings without any
interference or conditioning from others. This chakra is also
an earth connecting chakra like the base. Working on this chakra
will also help you to remain focused and grounded. However, it
will also help you with your ability to interact with all beings
that reside upon the earth. This chakra is good for healing relationship
issues, healing minor stomach and digestive orders and help your
reproductive organs to function properly.
The
Solar Chakra
The
solar chakra controls our will, our personal power. It also controls
our upper intestines and upper back and spine. The say our true
wisdom comes from the healthy workings of this chakra. It brings
us our strength, our courage and our will to succeed, achieve
and survive. The Solar chakra, when functioning negatively can
cause a person to be very fearful. They suffer from a low self
esteem. They have very little self worth. They may allow others
to push them around and control them. They can become very indecisive,
fearing to make any decisions or commitments to anyone or anything.
Because the Solar governs the stomach, many ulcers and stomach
di-orders are caused by stress that is caused by excessive worry
over the future. When this chakra is not functioning properly,
we become very fearful. We carry many burdens and worries for
the future and this can cause back problems as well. The old
saying "whose burdens are you carrying on your back" have a very
symbolic meaning to this centre. You can become a slave to others
needs and wants, which is common when you are within a relationship
and have children. They may not do it deliberately, but others
can take away your own power because theirs needs seem more important
than yours at the time. This sets the pattern up for a person.
They allow their energy to flow towards others instead of empowering
themselves. We can give out a little of our power, but we get
into to a routine where we become relied upon. We all like to
be needed by others. It makes us feel good to have others that
rely upon us, but we can get into the habit of giving all our
power away and this is what causes us to become weakened. Some
people go the opposite way with the power that comes from this
centre. They like to control others to an extent that they become
overbearing, controlling and manipulative. This is when they
have recognised that their power may be stronger than others.
They pray on people whose centres are not functioning positively
and these people have become Co-dependent. This makes the person
with too much power enjoy a sense of power and control over these
types of people. Many people who are overbearing choose people
in their lives that they can control because it hides their own
lack of self worth.
Many
drug problems come from this centre, when not functioning positively.
Also some overweight and underweight problems manifest because
people cover themselves in protection to hide away their low
self esteem. We are a race of people of different shapes and
sizes, not all of us are built to be tall, slim and beautiful,
but some people become so obsessed with their looks and their
bodies because of their own lack of self worth. It is good to
have pride in yourself and wear things and do things positively
to your body, however we must do it for ourselves and not because
of what others think of us. We have to learn to recognise what
are our needs and wants, and not what others expect out of us.When
functioning positively, we have a sense of our own self worth.
We meet our own needs and then we give to others without giving
our own personal power away. We do not compromise on our own
values because others do not believe in our ways. We are neither
controlling, manipulative, hard or weak. We find an equal balance
in ourselves that makes us feel secure. We make the right choices
and decisions in a balanced and fair fashion. We associate with
people who accept us for who we are. We are confident and are
able to express ourselves with honesty and integrity. We fight
for our rights and we also have a sense of what is wrong and
what is right in life. We speak the truth and we share our wisdom
with others without over shadowing another's view or life style.
We are neither racial or judgmental. Many famous people who fight
for the rights of others and try to make positive changes in
our world use their Solar chakra in a positive and empowering
way. We have all met people who, have in them, strength and a
strong vibrant personality that makes us want to make changes
in ourselves and our world. We are all capable of being like
this too.
Through
inner healing, we are able to open up the repressed emotions
and feelings that we have buried inside. We are all spiritual
warriors. Inside us all is a strong, wise and loving individual
that is capable of dealing with and healing any negative situation
we are facing. If we need strength and courage to face the day,
we do not look at others, instead we look into ourselves for
this courage and wisdom. We must learn to accept responsibility
for our own actions and in the way we deal with our lives. We
have to face up to the weaknesses that we have allowed into our
lives. If someone has done wrong to us or hurts us emotionally
then it was because we gave out an energy that said "hear I am
hurt me" I know this sounds harsh but if you look deep into this
you will see the truth behind it. We create our own actions and
then others react to our actions Everybody in the world today
has given away their personal power. This is why the world is
in such a mess. It is time to take back our personal power and
our own inner wisdom. This chakra is also an earth base chakra.
Working on this chakra will help us to stay focused, strong and
grounded to our beliefs, goals and dreams. This chakra gives
us the courage and will to face each day. We must open this chakra
to meditation. With the Solar, we must learn to go within and
focus on our own needs and wants. Meditation slows the mind down
and helps us to gain focus and clarity on our inner workings.
This
chakra responds to soft gentle music, sounds and movement, like
walking and swimming. The solar responds to water because water
has a cleansing and clearing effect. Also a healthy diet, with
only little amounts of meat, but a lot of fruits, vegetables
and pasta help keep this area cleansed. A good crystal to work
with is the clear quartz crystal, fluorite, agate and chysophase.
These crystals help to bring clarity, and purification, order
and balancing to this chakra. They help to release any blockages
and give you the wisdom behind why they had occurred. By wearing
yellow or having this colour in our environment, helps you to
show the world that you are at peace with yourself. This colour
shows others that you are an individual who is strong in character,
but gentle in spirit. The Lion represents leadership, control
and self esteem. By focusing on this animal as your guide and
protector you can invoke his spirit into your own.
The
Heart Chakra
The
heart chakra is situated in and around the heart area of our
physical body. The heart pumps the flow of blood that is needed
to keep us alive. Without the heart we can not function on the
physical plain. This one organ controls many other parts on the
body. The blood rushes through our veins and feeds our body with
nutrients to sustain our well-being. This area is what we call
the main centre or control panel for our body. This area also
governs the lungs. We need our lungs to breathe in the life force
energy of oxygen. Without air our physical bodies would die.
On a physical level we have problems with our heart, blood, circulation
and the vessels that carry the blood, also our lungs and how
we breathe. We have ribs that protect these areas, these also
become weakened when this centre is not functioning properly.
On
a mental level, the heart chakra functions on an emotional basis,
our feelings and how we express them towards ourselves and to
others. How we think gets turned into how we behave with our
feelings on this level. When someone has acted badly towards
us, the mind processes these actions and then sends these waves
of information to our heart centre, who then in turns, sends
them out as feelings of anger, fear or betrayal. When someone
tells us that we are beautiful, our mind does the same. It sends
these messages to the mind and the brain sends them to our heart
centre and we experience feelings of love, joy and happiness,
in return we emanate this energy out into our aura toward others.
When we smile and radiate love outwards the whole world smiles
back at us. It is the same when we are in a negative mood. The
same energy comes outwards and lashes onto those around us. We
have to learn just how powerful our feelings are, not only to
ourselves, but to everyone we encounter. On a spiritual level
this also causes an effect. When one person is negative and sends
that negativity out, others who have vulnerable heart centres,
and lets be honest I think we all suffer from a vulnerable heart
centre, connects to this energy, and it feeds their soul and
creates a global network of negativity. That is why the world
is filled up with so much negativity, so much hatred and racism
and also a lack of love and respect for our Mother Earth. How
we think is how we become. It is our manifestation, our existence.
How we feel is also apart of this story, for how we feel is how
we react. Reactions are what caused good and bad changes in our
lives today.
There
are two types of love that are created from this centre. The
first is the love that we have for our children, our friends,
outside family and our lovers. This love comes from a sense on
wanting and needing these people in our lives. We love and cherish
our children because they are apart of us, we created them and
we want what is best for them. We want to cherish them and protect
them from all evil. This is natural. However sometimes this energy
becomes so conditional that we put too many expectations onto
them. We smother them and over protect them. The love we feel
for our children should have some conditions, but it should also
be unconditional as well. The love we feel for our partners is
a love as they say has captured our hearts. Each of us are separate
planets. separate universes, when we meet another, these planets
collide and one becomes two. Our ways and their ways are different
and this causes dramas and pain. We expect too much from the
other and they do the same to us as well We have to learn to
love and accept each other in our own separate ways We have to
learn how to find a middle road when we are involved with another
person emotionally. You cannot make this type of love unconditional,
but through compassion, understanding and acceptance you can
make it more fulfilling and whole.
This
centre governs and supports our feelings both negative and positive
on the conditional love area. A lot of spiritual people have
a hard time when they decide to become healers and spiritualist
on the unconditional level. You can not mix unconditional love
with conditional love. It is like mixing oil and water. We live
in a society that has rules and regulations, as well as moral
obligations. Conditional love was created from this society.
We have based these ideals on the ways we were taught. It is
very hard to make sudden changes from conditional too unconditional.
Because we are evolving rather quickly spiritually, we think
that this area will move into the spirit at the same pace. This
is wrong. We have to slowly and gently move. Our feelings are
so sensitive that kid gloves are needed and when we try and push
too hard, we fail and that failure leads us to walk away from
the spirit. There is nothing that you can do, or any pills or
healing that will help rush you. You have to find a middle road
with these two loves. Allow them to take you to your own personal
level of awareness. Give it time and they will emerge together
to create a very powerful and uplifting experience, that will
carry you on the wings of healing. Unconditional love is all
about acceptance, joy, happiness, spiritual fulfillment, healing
and wisdom. With unconditional love you do not control or take
away from others, instead you give out positive, uplifting and
healing love, to yourselves and to others. This love, when functioning
properly will heal yourself, your family, friends and even the
world. It will take away any pain, sickness or emotional trauma
that you have had in your past and in your present You future
will come alive.
When
functioning on the negative this chakra makes it hard for us
to feel any real emotions. You feel your lovers, children, family
and friends will not offer any richness or reward in your life.
When this centre is fragile it becomes vulnerable to pain, fear,
sickness and a lack of life. We suffer from envy, jealousy, hatred
and closed heartedness. We become dramatic and all turn into
drama queens demanding attention but refusing to give out in
return. The world owes me, but I owe the world nothing in return.
When functioning in the positive, this centre offers us real
love, real friendships and true joy for those that are apart
of us. We become spontaneous with our emotions. Our hearts are
full and we want to share that love with anyone who wishes to
feel it's presence. We are kind, supportive, caring and understanding
of others and their ways. We accept others and love them for
who they really are. We lean to love and appreciate our Mother
Earth and all of her creatures. Just as the ribs protect our
hearts, on a spiritual level we want to place a protection around
our world. Just as the lungs give us air to live we also long
to provide a service that will allow others to breathe in the
beauty and wonders of true love. We embrace the brotherhood and
sisterhood of mankind, by accepting all beings and loving them
the way they deserve to be loved and honoured. Love brings peace
to the world and all the conflict that is going on in this time
of awareness. Love brings harmony that stops all the conflicts
that are raging at this time. Love brings about healing on all
levels and in all areas of our life.
The
heart centre functions both in the physical and the spiritual
levels. It belongs both on Mother Earth and in the havens. This
centre loves and appreciates music, dance yoga, self expression
and drumming. The drum is like a heart beat and this centre responds
to the vibrations that come from the drum. It helps to realign
your internal rhythm, making you strong and connected to your
own self and to the earth we live upon. This centre also loves
trees and anything that gives off a green energy. Trees hold
the wisdom and healing knowledge of our wonderful earth. Our
roots and our connections all come from the knowledge and healing
that these beings have to offer. The colour green also allows
you to have an earthly existence. This colour creates your identify
and also heals you with its connections to the earth. Green is
a powerful healing energy that helps you to release and heal
in a way that you gain spiritual understanding. The colour Pink
is also used to help you heal this centre when you need a gentle
caring and nurturing energy. The stone people have also provided
a very loving and powerful crystal called Rose Quartz. The rose
quartz promotes a gentle healing energy for those who have a
lot of emotional trauma and need a more softer and gentler approach
to their pain. All these tools are provided from the earth and
from our creator. When we use them all combined together we create
total healing, for ourselves and for the world.
The
Throat Chakra
The
throat chakra is situated in the neck area of the body. On a
physical level this chakra governs the throat, thyroid, mouth,
teeth, tongue, and jaw. The problems that we have on this level
are, sore throats, over and under active thyroids that can lead
to a lack of energy, vitality, overweight and underweight problems.
This chakra governs what we place into our body with food and
other substances. We use the throat to eat and drink. If we place
unhealthy things into this centre, it can cause the rest of our
body to become out of balance.
On
other levels like the emotional and spiritual this can cause
confusement and blockages to our creativity and our emotions.
Because this centre also governs our creativity, sometimes having
a bad diet and abusing it with drugs and alcohol can cause problems
in this area. However, when we place healthy substances into
this area, we can create healing, which can enhance our verbal
creativity. We come alive and vibrant in what we say and how
we act. On an emotional level this chakra governs the aspects
of communication, willpower, truthfulness and creativity. If
we cannot express ourselves through our voice to others, we can
become reclusive, shy and retreating in nature. On the other
side we can become loud and overly verbal that can cause us to
become aggressive, overbearing and deceitful. All these problems
can cloud our self expression. This can make us hide our true
selves away from others.
This
energy centre is very sensitive and can become unbalanced at
an early age. As babies, the only way we could communicate our
needs to our parents was through crying and screaming. We did
not know how to communicate in any other way. If we were chastised
and ignored, our needs were not met and this caused our throat
chakra to start closing down. The cycle of conditioning had begun.
Our true self expression was starting to become denied. As young
children, we were loud and vocal, running around screaming and
yelling and enjoying life without the restrictions that adults
have. However, our parents and elders found us too loud and made
us become quiet and this too caused our self expression to close
down even more. Throughout our childhood we have had to suppress
our true expression. Which shut down sections of our true creativity.
As adults, we have been suppressed by all the conditions that
were placed on us while we were growing up. We have become so
conditioned not to express our true selves, that we no longer
know who is the real person we truly are. The positive attributes
of this chakra on the emotional level are when we speak the truth,
know the truth and act upon that truth. In a way, what we say
can sometimes determine to the outside world what they think
of us. Through our verbal actions we express our true being.
Our personality shines outwards for the world to see through
spoken communication. The throat chakra also governs our voice.
Through our voice we can speak either truth or lies. When we
speak in truth, we live in truth. When we speak in lies, we live
in lies. When we act and communicate in a suppressed and negative
state, our living environment lacks lustre and creativity. When
we are open and creative, our living environment becomes open
and creative as well. On a spiritual level this chakra governs
freedom and expression. This is a type of freedom where we are
fully opened and can communicate with all beings and spirits.
On a spiritual level the throat chakra governs the doorway to
peace on earth. How? By communicating with all beings we learn
the truth, and when we learn the truth, we live the truth.
The
colour that responds to this chakra is turquoise or pale blue.
When we look up at the sky, we see a beautiful blue colour. The
colour blue vibrates an energy through the body that embraces
the ideals of openness and the unlimited freedom that is available
to all us. Blue embodies a sense of self expression. Blue is
the colour of wisdom, healing and freedom. We have been granted
the gift of sound that comes from our vocal cords and up through
the throat. This sound turns into words and singing. Through
using the voice in song, we can create a vibration that travels
through our whole body. This sound and rhythm enters into our
soul and clears away negative energy blockages that accumulate
when we are sick or under emotional stress. Through song, we
are able to heal the body in a creative and inspiring way. Through
the use of words that are creative and uplifting like poetry
and story telling we are able to inspire ourselves and others.
When the throat chakra is functioning in a positive manner, we
are able to communicate words and verbal rhythms that send out
loving and positive vibrations to the world. These vibrations
and energies enter other beings and inspires them to feel positive
and uplifted. Not only does song and poetry heal us, it can also
heal the whole planet. It is important to recognise this energy
centre as a major emotional and spiritual healing tool. We open
our mouths to breathe in life giving air, we open our mouths
to release out stale negative air. On a spiritual level we use
a method of breathing for releasing any negative or emotional
trauma, Breathe in life, breathe out death, breathe in love,
breathe out hate. This chakra is vital for healing work that
uses the release method. When we express ourselves in an honest,
loving and creative way, we create a positive and uplifting enjoyment
of our lives that enrich our whole being. We have a reason for
living. That reason is to gain the most out of our lives.
Through
inner healing with creative visualisation we can learn to open
this centre up to our true potential. With singing, and storytelling
and poetry we can learn about our creativity. A good stone being
that we can use on this chakra is agate, especially blue lace
agate. You can also use the amethyst quartz to provide you with
inspiration. Any crystal that has a blue in its body will enhance
your self expression. The agate family provide you with the power
to cleanse and clear out any blockages. The quartz provides clarity
and understanding.We have to learn how to re-open our spontaneous
reactions, and verbal expressions to find our true creativity.
To find the true you.
The
Third Eye Chakra
The
Brow or third eye chakra is situated in the middle of the forehead.
On a physical level this chakra governs the pituitary glands,
the skull, eyes, the brain and the nervous system. It also governs
our senses, like sight, smell, taste and touch. The pituitary
glands, nervous system and the brain govern the energy waves,
that send messages to the rest of the body. The skull protects
the brain from outside interference and the eyes give us the
ability to see on the physical. - If this chakra is unbalanced,
our physical state of existence can become confused. This can
send our body into a state of disarray. Sickness is sometimes
caused by the way we think. If the energy waves from our brain
and pituitary does not flow in a positive and balanced direction
we can suffer all sorts of mysterious aliments. We can also suffer
a lot of headaches, sinus and nasal problems and dis-ease within
the brain and the skull because we are not living in the physical
sense, instead we are in the head always thinking and worrying
about the future instead of living in the now. We can also suffer
from different types of mental dis-orders that are caused through
our nervous system. This is because the cord and energy that
runs inside within the nervous system are blocked. This causes
a build up of energy in certain areas. We become weak and lose
co-ordination in our body because the body is not receiving the
right messages. Our senses of smell and taste can also become
un-balanced. Also our emotions can cause our sense of touching
and communication through affection with others to become off
as well. We can also suffer eye problems because we are refusing
to see the truth to some situation, or we fear seeing something
in case it causes changes in our lives. When functioning positively,
we have good co-ordination and reflexes. We feel at peace within
ourselves and we function positively on the emotional and physical
level. We suffer very little from sickness and stress because
our organs that this chakra governs are healthy and flowing with
a balanced amount of energy. They call this chakra the control
panel for the entire mind, body and spirit. Here everything is
processed before any actions or reactions take place.
On
an emotional level, this chakra governs discernment, knowledge,
intuition and wisdom. When functioning positively, we are able
to look at life from a balanced point of view. We are open to
learning, which provides stimulus that makes our life more fulfilling.
They say the brain governs our emotions. I do not entirely believe
this scientific point of view, however, when the brain waves
are dis- orientated it can cause us to suffer mental illnesses
like depression, stress and worry. When functioning positively,
we are clear in our thoughts and focused within or actions and
we are able to be educated. We enjoy learning, and we take that
knowledge and apply it to our everyday lives through action,
ambition and energy. We are also able to deal with any emotional
issues or dramas that may arise within our lives. Because our
senses are functioning positively, we are able to use our senses
to foretell any possible dramas and problems that we may face
in the future. Our intuition is high and balanced and we are
able to tell fact from fiction. This area also governs our dream
state, our subconscious and our imagination. When these areas
are functioning positively we sleep deeply and peacefully and
we are open to dreams that educate us and send messages that
foretell of future events. With our imagination we are able to
focus on positive awake dreams that set up our future in the
way that brings us happiness, healing and rewards. With our subconscious,
we are able to program our minds o function in the way we want
it too. We have full control of our bodies and our emotions.
When
functioning negatively, We are always in our heads. We constantly
worry and suffer fears and phobias for the future. We can become
critical and analytical always judging others. We suffer a lack
of control over our lives and we can become stupid, refusing
to listen and learn. We only focus on negative situations and
in our imagination we create dramas. Our dream state can become
filled with night mares. We can become too intellectual insisting
on learning through books instead of experiencing the wisdom
gained from life itself. We live only for the future instead
of living life from the present. We allow ourselves to suffer
from events in our past that hinders our growth for the present.
- On the spiritual level this chakra governs our sixth sense
of awareness. The third eye opens you up to other worlds, other
beings and other senses like clairvoyance, which is the ability
to see into the future. Clairaudience that is the ability to
be able to hear spirit voices and other vibrational frequencies
that cannot be heard by the normal ear. When functioning negatively,
we tend to criticize any spiritual beliefs. We do not believe
in the magic of life that is present in our universe. We can
become critical, skeptical and harsh in the way we look at the
world. When functioning positively, we trust in life and the
universal process that governs our existence here on this plane.
We are open to the realms and planes of consciousness that reside
along side our world. We communicate to beings, we have an understanding
of the soul. We are able to leave our bodies and venture into
the past and the future to set up positive events and healing.
We sense people and their thoughts and feelings through psychic
waves of energies that flow through all living beings. We are
open, spontaneous and alive with life force energy. We think
thoughts, we dream dreams and we set up programs that we know
can create healing and well-being within our lives. We see beyond
illusion. -
The
colour that is associated with this energy centre is violet to
purple. These colours vibrate an energy that opens up our intuition
and imagination. These colours stimulate the brain to function
in a balanced way that helps with education and learning. - There
are many crystals that enhance this chakras energy. Lapis opens
you up to the stars and beyond. Azurite and malachite enhance
your psychic abilities. Amethyst quartz brings clarity, wisdom
and enhances all your skills that are needed on all levels. -
Meditation and gentle subliminal music help to keep this centre
focused and balanced in times of stress and worry. Exercise like
walking and swimming can also help a person to get out of their
head and into their body. The saying "stop thinking and start
feeling "is a good affirmation to do each day to help solve problems,
fears and doubts. All is well with this chakra when you sleep
well, think positively and have good dreams and goals for the
future. You love to learn and you are open to different ideals
about metaphysics. You can sense danger and have gut feelings
and thoughts on future events. - The Third eye embraces wisdom
that goes beyond illusion to awaken clarity that brings enlightenment.
The
Crown Chakra
The
Crown chakra is situated at the top of the head. This chakra
governs part of the spinal cord, the stem of the brain, pain
centre of the brain and part of the nerves. When people become
sick and suffer a lot of pain that they cannot handle, it is
because the energy flow is blocked to this chakra. A lot of people
are able to control their pain fresh hold levels through focusing
on this chakra and flowing energy through, to stop any pain that
is inflicting them. A lot of ancient warriors in Japan were able
to be beaten and not feel the pain. Different cultural people
who use to walk on hot coals, beat themselves and stitch sharp
objects into their bodies, could come away from these ceremonies
without any physical burns, wounds and pain, through the focusing
and belief in this centre, and it's role in understanding divine
belief.
This
centre through special focusing and breathing can control all
pain. This is because it governs the organs and nerve centres
that control our pain. When not functioning properly on a physical
level this chakra causes a loss of control over a person's ability
to live and interact with the world. Some people suffer from
dis-eases that cause them to lose movement. Some of the problems
that come from this chakra are blindness, deafness, paraplegics.
Loss of limbs and any disease that attacks the nervous system,
brain stem and spinal cord. There is a loss of energy flow and
more so belief, which causes this chakra to become unbalanced.
This chakra is the chakra that can create miracles. If you believe
and have hope, working with this chakra can bring about true
healing on any level. When functioning positively on the physical
level. You will feel alive and filled with spiritual energy.
Your health is radiant and your are strong in mind, body and
spirit.
The
Crown is at the very top of the body. As the base chakra connects
us to Mother Earth, the crown chakra connects us to the heavens,
to the stars and beyond. The sky and all the power and wisdom
that belongs to our higher mind. This chakra is truly an amazing
and life force energy channel for healing and spiritual awakening.
This chakra governs the connection that we have to the Divine.
This chakra embodies belief, unconditional love and beauty. When
we believe, we are open to learning. When we learn we open ourselves
to life's experiences that challenge us to grow and evolve into
better people. When we open ourselves to unconditional love,
we allow ourselves to love and accept all beings. We are free
from judgement and we are non racial to others and their beliefs.
We embrace the concept that we are apart of every living thing
that exists. If you believe in God, the Creator or Great spirit,
you believe that these beings are apart of you. With unconditional
love you are ready to accept other cultures and their beliefs.
You embrace the concept of brother hood and sisterhood. Beauty
is within. We are all beautiful. When we truly open our hearts
and our eyes we see the beauty in all life. We are able to look
at others who suffer from defects and scars with love and compassion
instead of embarrassment and pity. We are able to focus on the
beauty rather then the scaring. In fact a lot of us do not recognise
afflictions on people unless pointed out to us.
On
a spiritual level, the Crown chakra is our connection to healing
and life force energy. This centre is connected to your higher
mind. Your higher mind is the part of you that knows all the
answers. You are able to communicate to the trees, the animals
and to mother earth herself. When you open this chakra up, you
can channel through spirits from different planes, aliens and
many more beings that communicate on this level. This chakra
can also send healing energy down through to the others' chakras.
Telepathy is a form of communicating messages to other people.
If you find that you can sense a friend or family member trying
to make contact with you, it is because your crown chakra is
opened and you are using this centre to send out and receive
messages. The Crown chakra is like a transmitter to the whole
universe. If you send out thoughts and ideals, dreams and goals
through this chakra you will be heard and a lot of the times
your prayers are answered. However you must learn to use this
chakra to do this. I found through doing Reiki I was able to
send out healing and also set up positive outcomes to events
in my life through using this chakra as a transmitter. It worked.
Now I use it all the time to help myself, my friends and my family
and most importantly Mother earth.
There
are two major colours that you can use with this chakra. One
is purple and the other is white. White represents all the colours
combined together. So all the energies that exist with all the
colours flow and vibrate a powerful healing frequency through
this chakra. White is divine, pure, honest and new. Through inner
healing and deep meditation we are able to unlock our true potential.
The clear quartz crystal is one of the most powerful crystals
on earth. It promotes clarity and transmits energy that opens
us up to all the wisdom of the universe. This crystal is very
powerful when you focused it on the crown chakra.
The
Thymus Chakra
We
believe that there is a chakra that exists in between the heart
chakra and the throat chakra. This chakra is a very powerful
energy channel that links you to the earth and to the heavens.
Uniting with this chakra brings about great awareness to your
emotional and spiritual planes. We believe that when this chakra
is recognised within the person and is functioning properly,
you will become open to the truth of your existence. It is like
accessing the sacred records. This chakra seems to bring belief
and spiritual wisdom down from the heavens and connects us to
the earthly plane. The higher mind meets the inner child.
Learning
to feel this chakra and bringing it back to awareness is said
to bring about healing and wisdom on all levels. We believe that
our bodies have been spiritually tampered with to stop us from
properly evolving. That is why until know we have forgotten this
chakra. By bringing this chakra back into awareness we may actually
be able to bring back total healing. This chakra governs the
thymus itself. This takes the pressure off the heart chakra and
evens out the energy. This creates an even balance for each of
the chakras. By knocking gently on this centre each day we are
able to access energy that will make us fell well and energised.
When we meditate and bring our awareness to this centre we are
able to activate our three bodies. The mind, the body and the
soul. This unites us into one perfect being able to understand
and function fully. We use the colours blue and green to encourage
healing and growth with this chakra. Working with mediation and
inner healing we are able to open this centre and learn more.
Using Golden Calcite, Azurite, Lapis and Malachite will help
bring the star beings down to help us explore this chakra more
fully.
