Step 1 bring the attention to your breathing, observe the breath but don’t try to control your breathing, can you feel how your breathing is? is it intense or shallow ?
Step 2 Now start to deepen the breath by first expanding the heart area, then the ribs and last the belly area, then slowly exhale. the air should exit very calmly so there is not intensity to the breath. Do this again, in hale expanding the heart area, then the ribs and lastly the belly area,
Step 3 Go back to just relaxing the breath and see how the breath has changed
Step 4 Next I want you focus on things in your life that you are grateful for and to give thanks for.
Focus on all things that are positive in your life. think of anything that has been a great lesson to you, even if it has been difficult, think of any moment that has been of great value in your life, send love to all those around you, with your eyes close visualize them and say thank you to them for being on your journey. remember also to thank the people who have been great teachers to you and have shared valuable time and wisdom with you.
Step 5 Check your breath again and see how your breath has changed, observe how your mind has changed for the better. You will start to notice all active stress transform into a great sense of calmness, you will start to feel the Great Spirit in your heart once more. You will once again feel that life is wonderful remember everything in life is possible once you make it important enough, know that you have all that you need in this moment.

How To Attract More Love and Wisdom |Crown Chakra

Sahasrara is a bridge to the cosmos, it is a spiritual connection, and through it you can reach your higher potential. It is the energy of knowledge and enlightenment The Crown Chakra is often described as a slowly blooming Lotus flower, as the involvement of the spirit during life.
The crown chakra governs many organs, glands and systems of the body such as the brain, the nervous system, and the pituitary gland. The crown chakra directs the energy of a certain part of yourself which is commonly called the Higher Self and embraces you within its protective light making you feel secure and healthy.

Crown chakra meaning
The seventh chakra is referred to as:
- Crown chakra
- Sahasrara
- Shunnya
- Niralambapuri
The Sanskrit name “Sahasrara” is sometimes used to designate the seventh chakra. It can be translated as “Thousand petals”.
Crown chakra color
The crown chakra is most commonly represented with the color white, although it can also be depicted as deep purple. The auric color of crown chakra energy can also be seen as gold, white, or clear light.
The beauty of “enlightenment” is that it does not require the attainment of exogenous things we lack; it is about remembering the knowledge we’ve always had and taking comfort in knowing we always will. Most meditative practices work to quiet “roof-brain chatter” (at the crown of the head) that inhibits our innate ability to hear our inner voice. That voice is always speaking, softly, reminding us what we need and how may obtain it. Through meditation, we move inward into stillness and quiet, and we listen.
Crown Chakra Affirmation:
“I am complete and one with the divine energy”
Using Reiki to Unblock the Crown Chakra
While healing the crown chakra, a Reiki practitioner will relate it to the color violet or white. As with any chakra, Reiki practitioners each have their own way of working with this chakra. Below is just one method.
- Relax comfortably
- Draw the Power Symbol
- Intend for the crown chakra to expand, for the highest good
- Draw the Emotional Symbol
- Relax and feel the tranquility
- Follow your intuition on what symbols to use next, if any – or just continue to relax, envisioning your crown chakra opening up and expanding

How To Sharpen Your Sixth Sense | Third Eye Chakra
You see the physical world through your eyes and you also have the ability to see the spiritual world through your third eye, chakra. The third eye symbolizes an enlightened state of consciousness through which one can perceive the world.
It also helps us see clearly, both physically and psychically. It supports imagination, awareness of the subtle/energetic world, intuitive knowing, and inner vision. When you see something “with your mind’s eye,” you are seeing it with the Ajna chakra.
What is the Sixth-Chakra?
Sixth-chakra intuition and wisdom are universal and transcendent in nature. The 6th chakra, when highly developed, elevates consciousness and confers deep spiritual insight and awareness. Perception of non-ordinary reality may accompany this.
The third eye chakra is a main point for external life energy (prana, chi) to enter and be distributed to the other chakras. It is also a key to ongoing spiritual development. Thus, keeping it as clear and balanced as possible is very important.
How to use your third eye:
If you don’t get enough source energy it will be quite hard for your to open your third eye. You can get an abundance of universal energy by meditating. When you meditate you get universal energy through your crown chakra into your whole body. Click here to experience the Loving Kindness Meditation for free.
Cultivating your 6th chakra can help you:
- think more clearly
- have “vision”

Color of the Third Eye:
The third eye chakra is associated with the color indigo. Simply lighting this color of candle and relaxing while focusing on this chakra can bring it into balance. Also wearing indigo colored clothing or surrounding yourself with this color of flower can bring harmony within the chakra.
When you concentrate on your third eye area, you’ll start feeling a tingling sensation or a slight pressure/vibration in that area. This always means that the third eye chakra is awakening, no matter how small pressure/vibration you’re experiencing.
