Understanding the Chakras: HEART
The Heart Chakra is associated with the color green and lives at the center of your chest. It is the Chakra all about love- love of self, others, and all things. This Chakra governs our compassion, empathy, and forgiveness.
An open Heart Chakra allows life to flow with more ease. We can understand others heart-to-heart and our relationships become more prosperous and loving. We argue less and open up more. We can feel more vulnerable and safe and attract people that make us feel safe as well.
We can only meet people from where we are at. When we work on ourselves and begin to love ourselves we can love others more fully.
From this place we can find love for all things: the food we eat, the cashier at the grocery store, the person who cut us off in traffic- it's endless!
Finding more compassion for yourself, flaws and regrets and all- allows space to understand that others are just like us but on their own unique self healing journey. We can see that we are all one and we can love unconditionally.
The Heart Chakra is the energy center that acts as the bridge between the Chakras of the physical realm and the Chakras of the higher planes.
The first three Chakras relate to the physical world and the last three Chakras relate to the higher planes. The Heart Chakra is the Chakra both between and a part of both of these realms. When we love ourselves and others we open a door to our higher selves and can access the wisdom of the upper Chakras.
Some signs that your Heart Chakra is opening are:
-Finding it easier to manifest as you are more open to recieve
-Noticing that you are less judgemental of others
-Being more giving and generous with your time, money, and more
-Improvement in your relationships of all kinds
-Letting go of past hurts as you can more easily forgive
-Depression is a thing of the past
They say that loving ourselves is one of the hardest things to do. Self love can be achieved through forgiviness, meditation, yoga, letting go of toxic behaviors, therapy, Reiki, and so much more. Find what works for you on your journey to self love and Heart Chakra healing.
Let the love in,
