Of the seven chakras,
Or energy points in the body,
It is the third eye chakra that many find to be the most fascinating.
Positioned at the forehead and corresponding to the pineal gland,
This chakra provides a vehicle to advanced intuition and perception.
The third eye chakra is also a portal to consciousness and even psychic abilities.
Quite honestly,
It's your GPS.
If you find yourself experiencing a lack of focus or creativity,
This chakra might be blocked.
This happens to all of us.
As a teacher,
Musician,
And writer,
I experience days when I'm totally on,
As well as days where I'm met with frustration.
I always find nourishing and opening the third eye to be extremely helpful.
In this talk,
I will share some of my discoveries for doing just that.
Chakras are hand gestures that can bring balance and alignment to us,
And they're sometimes referred to as yoga for the hands.
A great one for energizing the third eye is the Hakini Mudra.
Bring your hands to the center of your chest and touch each of your fingertips together while leaving your palms open.
It should look like a gesture that some professors perform while lecturing.
Each of your fingers represents one of the elements,
So bringing them together charges you with balance.
I invite you to perform this mudra while we go into the next exercise,
And several times each week in your own practice.
As you perform the Hakini Mudra,
I invite you to close your eyes right now while I play one of my singing bowls,
The sound of which is said to aid in opening the third eye chakra.
This is a perfect pitch,
A note,
At 432 hertz.
It played at 432 hertz is believed to relax the mind and body while enhancing consciousness.
I began receiving Reiki treatments long before I became a Reiki practitioner myself.
Each time I went for a session,
I could see with my eyes closed flashes of purple or indigo whenever my practitioner brought energy to my third eye.
It's said that hearing a singing bowl at 432 hertz often brings about a similar experience.
One of the best benefits of keeping your third eye chakra active is that you are opening yourself up to your higher self.
You are better able to connect with yourself as well as the divine according to your relationship,
And you will also be more able to trust yourself.
Seek clarity with your mind.
Attune with the divine.
Trust your mind.
You are one with the divine.
Your intuition and inner truth are essential components,
So don't fail to listen to them.
Trust your GPS.
The crow flies from me to thee to send the message,
Blessed be.
Namaste.
