We've made it to the finale.
Take a moment to celebrate yourself.
It takes courage and tenacity to do the work of looking inward,
To become familiar with the unique constitution of our identities,
To bring awareness to the energies that interlace the mind,
Body,
And soul.
Breathe and send your focus to the top of your head.
Straighten the spine to lift the crown higher.
Imagine a beaming light bursting to life,
Reaching out with rays like tree branches stretching up and out towards the sky.
Its brilliance delivers your goodwill and loving kindness to the universe,
And collects wisdom that the universe imparts in return,
Relaying it down through each chakra until it settles at the root.
Feel the buzz of all seven chakras,
Luminous and lively.
Affirmations for the crown chakra include,
I trust in the universe,
I know deep inner peace.
This chakra moves beyond the self.
It represents our connectedness to all living things,
An awakening.
It's our ability to recognize that we are spiritual beings having a human experience.
When it is blocked,
We may feel lost,
Lonely,
Disconnected,
Or consumed by our attachments to this world.
We may be rigid in our beliefs,
Unwilling to let go,
Or unable to see a bigger picture.
To balance this chakra,
We must learn to let go of the ego,
Which may sound counterintuitive given that we spent much time familiarizing ourselves with our sense of individualism.
But to place faith in something bigger than ourselves is to humble ourselves,
To accept that we cannot be all knowing,
Trust that the universe has its reasons for paving our path in a particular fashion.
That's not to say we shouldn't have hopes and goals,
But we can learn to move toward them with flexibility.
Desire that manifests in the form of rigidity is what holds us back.
Forget about what you think you're owed and learn to embrace what comes your way instead.
Can you recall a moment or past experience when you were able to say,
Thank goodness,
I didn't get what I wanted back then.
If I had,
I wouldn't have ended up here.
Hindsight is 20-20,
So although you may now know that path wasn't right for you,
It may have taken a while for you to come to that realization.
Of course,
We're allowed to feel the array of emotions that come with unexpected outcomes or change.
Honor those emotions.
Allow yourself to say what needs to be said in those situations so that you may heal those wounds.
But trust that something better is coming your way.
Know that the heart of life is good and that so long as you go forth with unburdened,
Virtuous energy,
It will surely make its way back to you.
And that's what this is all about.
Energy.
More specifically,
Spiritual energy on a physical plane.
You felt what it was like to have blocked or tumultuous energy,
And hopefully,
You're becoming acquainted with peaceful,
Balanced energy.
You have the ability to decide which is worthy of your devotion.
But I hope you choose peace.
I hope that the light you've nurtured inspires others to find their own way to liberation.
I invite you to revisit this space as often as you need to so that you may continue to experience your unrestrained spirit,
Your highest self.
Until then,
Be well my friend.
