Crown Chakra: Tips for Inner Peace & an Open Mind

4/12/2016

1 Comment

 
The Seventh main energy centre in the body is the Crown Chakra. It is located at the crown of the head. It is known as Sahasrana, or the thousand petal lotus and allows us to be spiritual beings beyond our physical existence. It is our consciousness and pure awareness. When Sahasrana is overly active we may feel lost, confused and over sensitive to our environment. Or when this energy centre is blocked we may feel lonely, unconnected to others and lack direction and purpose in life. When balanced we feel positivity, have life force flowing through us, an open mind and become connected to others and the world.

In our physical Yoga practice inversions such as supported headstand are great for the crown chakra, as well as postures where you lengthen up through the centre of the body such as mountain and tree pose. And one of our favorites...Savasana also know as Corpse Pose (where we lie down at the end of a Yoga class) helps to calm and balance the crown chakra.

Here are some tips for balancing the Crown Chakra. 
  • Meditate. Try sitting in quiet reflection, focusing fully on the task at hand or simply sit and focus on your breath to bring yourself into the present moment.
  • Try Reiki. A Reiki healer help to balanace the whole chakra system by light touch, reducing stress and promoting the bodies nature healing process.
  • Be in Nature. Being with nature, see, feel and experience the amazing connectedness of all things.
  • Positive Affirmation. (see above)
  • ​Love Yourself. Self love is the key to loving others and all things. Accept and love yourself fully as you are now and let the love expand to others.
Thanks for reading. Have a beautiful day.
