Stable Life: Chakras

Chakras are such an easy and in-depth topic all in the same space. I will do my best to keep this post short, sweet and to the point. Very briefly, Chakras are energy centers in the body, as shown in the picture above. When your Chakras are balanced they all work together to keep you mentally, emotionally and physically healthy. When they are not functioning well, they can cause you problems of the same.

For example, see that green circle on the diagram? That's your Heart Chakra. Have you ever had a broken heart? If so, you may have left over residue/traumas that is causing your heart chakra to be under or overactive. Maybe it's causing you to seek bad relationships, lack self-love or to even be overly needy/demanding. In this case, it would need re-balancing/cleansing
The good news! You can work with your chakras to both realign them and to help you work out past crap that is blocking them. Here is a brief overview of each chakra for you to get started:

Root Chakra — Brings us grounding and feelings of security.
  • Colour: Red
  • Location: Base of spine.
  • Unbalanced Psychological: Issues with: survival, finances, food, sense of self, sense of abandonment, loneliness, addictions, phobias, depression, indecisiveness, aggressive, reckless, impulsive
  • Unbalanced Physical: lower-back pain, sciatica, varicose veins, constipation, diarrhea, impotence, water retention, and problems with lower extremities
  • Why it's unbalanced: Traumatic events, family problems, death of a loved one, and major life changes
  • How to balance: meditation, red-focused environment (eat red fruit, carry red crystals, drink red-infused water, wear red), release past pain, trauma and suffering

Sacral Chakra — Our connection to other people, creativity, energy, confidence, and sexual health.
  • Colour: Orange
  • Location: Two finger-widths below the belly button
  • Unbalanced Psychological: Issues with: self-actualization, mood swings, eating disorders, addictions, low self-confidence, dependency issues, selfishness, arrogance, lustfulness
  • Unbalanced Physical: kidney problems, urinary tract infections, chronic lower back pain, sexual disorders, infertility, gynecological problems, dysfunctional menstrual cycles, and problems with the intestines
  • How to balance: meditation, orange-focused environment (eat orange fruit, carry orange crystals, drink orange-infused water, wear orange)

Solar Plexus Chakra —Our self-confident and self-control. Our 'gut' feeling centre
  • Colour: Yellow
  • Location: Just under ribs, where your 'gut' is.
  • Unbalanced Psychological: Issues with: Drained energetically and mentally, isolation, hypervigilance. 
  • Unbalanced Physical: Problems with the pancreas, stomach, liver, and gall bladder
  • Why it's unbalanced: Emotional baggage, inability to connect to intuition
  • How to balance: meditation, yellow-focused environment (eat yellow fruit, carry yellow crystals, drink yellow-infused water, wear yellow), release past baggage and forgive, listen to your 'gut' feelings.

Heart Chakra — Our ability to give and receive love.
  • Colour: Green
  • Location: Center of chest just beside the heart.
  • Unbalanced Psychological: Issues with: being closed to others, low self-esteem, insecurity, jealousy, feeling unloved, playing the victim, self-doubt,  giving too much of oneself, overconfidence, jealousy and stinginess.
  • Unbalanced Physical: Problems with the heart, lower lung area, circulatory system, the Thymus gland, and immune system
  • Why it's unbalanced: Relationship issues, a broken heart, loss of hope.
  • How to balance: meditation, green-focused environment (eat green fruit, carry green crystals, drink green-infused water, wear green), release past heart break and forgive self and others.
​
Throat Chakra — Our ability to communicate.
  • Colour: Blue
  • Location: Throat.
  • Unbalanced: Communication, inability to express feelings and the self-truth, negative/aggressive communication, hyperactive attitude, over-reacting, and stubborn beliefs
  • Why it's unbalanced: Unable to feel safe in self-expression. Told to keep quiet as a child. No felt listened to.
  • How to balance: meditation, blue-focused environment (eat blue fruit, carry blue crystals, drink blue-infused water, wear blue), commit to speaking truthfully and openly.

Third Eye Chakra — Ability to tap into and use inner visions, dreams, focus, wisdom, perception and clairvoyance.
  • Colour: Indigo (Purple-blue)
  • Location: Forehead between the eyes (also called the Brow Chakra).
  • Unbalanced Psychological: Issues with self-doubt, forgetfulness, an inability to trust your instincts, oversensitive, spaced out, and experiencing psychic overload.
  • Unbalanced Physical: Issues with nervous system, lower brain, left eye, ears, nose, and the pituitary gland
  • Why it's unbalanced: Heart chakra imbalances will affect the Third Eye Chakra. Running away from 'gifts'
  • How to balance: meditation, indigo-focused environment, work on healing and opening the heart chakra.

Crown Chakra — The highest chakra represents our ability to be fully connected spiritually.

That's it ladies and gents. Chakras in a nutshell....a big nutshell. 
We practice chakra balancing meditations at our Human & Horse Meditation and Healing circles, if you want to pop in and (learn how to) align those beautiful energy centres in your body.
