Introduction To The Chakras

Hi,

This is Amelia and this is an introduction to the chakras.

The chakras are connected.

So these chakras you can see right here.

So there are lots of actually different chakra systems.

So the seven chakra system I'm going to talk to you about is one that's certain positions along the spine,

Starting with the root chakra.

There's different colors,

There's different properties,

There's different affirmations,

Ways that we can activate and balance the chakras.

So that think about all of these chakras like wheels and they're all connected in a system.

So if one stops spinning.

Then it's blocked.

And then all of a sudden that energy is not flowing.

So we want this energy to flow freely within us and within the chakras.

So the root chakra,

So right at the base of the spine.

So think about a home.

If the foundation is not strong,

If it's not sturdy,

If it wasn't engineered with stability,

It doesn't matter what you build on top of it,

How fancy it is,

How expensive it is,

It's not going to stay because that foundation can fall apart.

Well,

At the root chakra,

At the base of the spine,

Vision,

The color red,

And repeat,

I am safe,

I am grounded,

I am supported.

Then moving up to the sacral chakra.

So this is just right below the belly button.

This is around the band of where our reproductive organs are.

And think about reproducing and that's creation.

This is where creativity,

It might be blocked or activated.

And a way that you can activate that and help balance that is imagine the color orange and repeating to yourself,

I honor my feelings and embrace joy,

Creativity,

And flow.

If you're noticing anything around sensuality or sexuality,

That this can be an important place for you to bring some focus and meditate and visualize those colors and those affirmations.

Moving on up just above the belly button,

We've got the solar plexus.

Imagine the color yellow like the color of the sun and this is our power center.

Think about it like right at the core,

Like at our deep core muscles and here at the solar plexus,

Repeating,

I trust myself,

I step into my power with confidence.

Moving on up to the heart,

The heart chakra.

This is all about love.

So an affirmation here,

Imagine the color green,

I give and receive love with an open heart.

And the third chakra,

The sky blue.

Throat,

Speech,

Then this is where you can repeat,

I speak my truth with clarity,

Courage,

And kindness.

Right in the middle of the eyebrows,

We've got that third eye chakra.

So breathing into here,

This is where I'm connected to my inner wisdom,

My inner knowing,

So here with the indigo blue,

The third eye repeating to yourself,

I trust my intuition and inner wisdom.

And then finally,

After the crown chakra.

So at the crown chakra,

It might be purple and sometimes you see it as white,

But either color,

Focus on purple or white.

And this is your connection to enlightenment,

To your divine guides.

I am connected to something greater than myself.

Hope that was helpful.

Thank you for joining me today.

Namaste.
