Your body and spirit converge in your heart chakra. It serves as a link or meeting place between your spirit and your actual physical body.
In this life, we have obligations to fulfill, fears to face, egos to manage, and laws to follow. However, this does not fully capture who we are.
We are souls on spiritual missions; we are not merely bodies placed here to pay the bills. The heart chakra serves as the meeting point between the human and the soul, since we are souls having human experiences.
The heart chakra, which is one of the body’s seven primary energy centers, is in the chest and is where we develop the ability to walk securely and steadily while listening to our souls, our intuition, and universal knowledge.
During the Leo Season, our heart chakra, which is in charge of the chest, lungs, breasts, and blood flow, is especially active.
Our heart chakra has the power to circulate throughout our body, offering us vitality and life force energy, just like the blood that runs through our veins.
Here are some tips for keeping it clear:
1.) Try to notice anything that interferes with your heart chakra.Try to sense, through meditation or other methods, what routines, recollections, worries, or patterns are causing the walls around your heart. If possible, try the following journaling activity:
I’ve stopped myself from giving and accepting love because… “Write at the start of your page. Start writing anything that comes to mind, even if it has nothing to do with the prompt, and set a timer for 20 minutes. Write continuously until the timer sounds. Examine your writing to see if any new insights have emerged.
2.) Don’t be afraid to communicate your sincere and authentic emotions. Blockages in this area may also result from suppressing your emotions or attempting to mask them with a grin. Be honest with yourself and don’t shy away from those more powerful, unpleasant feelings.
3.) Because the heart chakra is associated with the colors green and pink, try to do as much of your interior decorating in these hues as possible.Wearing gemstones in these hues and consuming naturally pink or green foods can also be beneficial. Malachite, jade, rose quartz, green or watermelon tourmaline, and emerald are a few gems related to the heart chakra.
4.) Put a lot of emphasis on loving yourself!This is more than simply taking a bubble bath; it also involves establishing boundaries, saying “yes” to yourself and “no” to other people, being honest with yourself, and accepting accountability for your thoughts, feelings, and actions.
5.) Move and stretch your body so that your chest opens to the outside.Yoga positions abound for this, or you might try this exercise:
Cross your legs on the floor and stretch your arms straight out in front of you, thumbs pointing up.Inhale deeply, then, as you exhale, spread your arms as widely as you can to the side. After that, breathe in to bring your arms back to the middle. Take 30 breaths while doing this.
6.) Activate the heart chakra with sounds such as bells, gongs, chanting, and singing bowls designed specifically for this chakra.Because the sound “YAM” is associated with the heart chakra, try chanting it at various pitches and frequencies to find the one that most resonates with you.
7.) The heart chakra is said to be influenced by certain essential oils, such as peppermint, rose, and rose geranium. After taking a shower or right before bed, massage the chest region with a mixture of these oils and a carrier oil or simple moisturizer.
8.) Consistently demonstrate kindness, appreciation, and compassion. The more you experience these feelings, the stronger and more in tune with your heart chakra’s vibration you will become.
9.) Don’t be scared to end harmful connections so that you may continue forming good relationships with other people. Making eye contact and developing meaningful relationships with people are excellent ways to boost the heart chakra.
10.) Do your best to communicate and act from the heart. Try to check into your heart energy before making a choice, sending an email, or acting on anything to see what wisdom or direction it has to offer. You may even picture the energy from your heart rising into your mind and filling your throat with words and thoughts.
Your ability to connect with the love that you are is enhanced as you walk through life with your heart chakra open. You can do both with it, and you can always feel safe and protected inside of yourself.
Try a few of these suggestions, and see if you can navigate life with an open heart.
