SOLAR PLEXUS CHAKRA : THE 7 CHAKRAS SERIES
Your solar plexus chakra is located at your solar plexus, in the middle of your torso.
This is the energetic center for personal power, courage, and self-esteem.
It's characterized by fire, drive, and balanced motivation.
THIRD CHAKRA IMBALANCES
When your solar plexus is too open, it can manifest as addictive eating, hepatitis
(liver inflammation), or obesity. Signs of a closed Solar chakra can include kidney
stones, gallstones, or liver stones. It can also manifest as inflammation of the
stomach (gastritis) or intestines (colitis, diverticulitis).
You can use chakra
balancing techniques to heal your Solar chakra. Combined with eating more fresh
fruits and vegetables, taking digestive enzymes and a probiotic, you can achieve optimal health and balanced vitality.
Energetically, if your solar chakra is too open, you could be judgemental,
a workaholic (overly driven), or frequently or easily angered. Signs
of a closed or blocked Solar chakra manifest as low self esteem, lack of motivation, or extremely self critical.
CHAKRA COLORS THERAPY
The solar plexus chakra color
is yellow. This is your personal battery. When you feel powerful,
strong, and capable, your solar plexus chakra is the source.
It's vital to keep the fires going
strong and this is the energy center to focus on for raw energy. Color therapy for your Solar
chakra could include wearing yellow or creating art that involves bright yellow.
THIRD CHAKRA BALANCING WITH SOUND
The sound of the Solar chakra is the note E. Singing or playing an instrument in E helps
to stimulate a balancing effect in the third chakra. Chanting one of the
bija mantras RAM (rhymes with mom) is
one of my favorite simple ways to empower your Solar plexus chakra.
Stringed instruments
such as guitar and piano are good for sound healing or music therapy. Mozart's stringed quartets are excellent.
SOLAR PLEXUS CHAKRA CRYSTALS
Good crystal choices
for healing and balancing your Solar chakra would be tiger's eye,
yellow calcite, or sunstone (my personal favorite).
Hold your stone against your third
chakra, carry it in your pocket through the day, or make a gem elixir by putting your
crystal into or next to a glass of water before you sleep. When you awaken, sip the
water throughout the day for a boost to your self esteem.
CHAKRA ESSENTIAL OILS AND AROMATHERAPY
Aromatherapy for
the Solar plexus is quite effective. Take a bath with sea salts and pure
essential oil of lemon, lime, neroli, or orange. Burn natural incense scented with ginger
or cinnamon. In a pinch, just put a few drops of essential oil on a scarf and savor the scent throughout your day.
LIFESTYLE
Activities that balance your Solar chakra include deep breathing, fast walking or jogging, and weight lifting.
Even 5 minutes a day is a great start to effective body balancing. Do whatever is comfortable, breathe, and
enjoy the sensations of moving your body. I have also seen great results with postive affirmations for balancing self-esteem issues.
