Day Three - Solar Plexus Chakra

Solar Plexus Chakra

Sanskrit word: Manipura

The colour of our solar plexus chakra is yellow. The solar plexus chakra is based where the two rib cages meet. This chakra point is where our personal power, wisdom and decisiveness lie. When this chakra point is balanced, we feel confident about ourselves, our choices and we know our personal truth.

An overactive chakra point is indicated by tempers, always being quick to anger. We feel the need to control others or to micro-manage those around us. We become greedy for power and lack compassion or empathy.

An underactive chakra point is when you are indecisive, insecure, unsure of yourself, timid almost, sometimes to the point of neediness. This usual happens when our personal power is taken away from us through circumstances.

On this third day we, will concentrate on the solar plexus chakra. As you sit in meditation, we will recognize the position of the chakra point that we will be meditating on. Allow your feelings of obsession, manipulation and the need to control all things to rise within you and allow yourself to release them with peace and love.

Conscious Meditation

Conscious meditation uses outward images to create inward calm. Relaxing the mind is always a challenge. Our mind is always full of chattering and images.

Create an atmosphere for this meditation by lighting a candle and/or incense. Sit in a chair or on a cushion. If you want, you could play meditation background music.

Sit upright or cross legged.

Relax yourself.

Concentrate on your breathing.

Listen to your breathing.

Allow your mind to flow.

Remember to set your timer/alarm for the period that you wish to sit in peace for.

As you sit in this stillness with your mind flowing, breathing in and out, allow a pure white energy to flow into you. .

Keep breathing in and out. Concentrate on the breath. Allow a flow of this energy.

Process your images without any involvement from yourself. Let the images flow through you as though you are watching a movie. With each breath we allow ourselves to detach from the experience.

Concentrate on your breathing. Connect with your Divine energy, breathing in relaxation and acceptance. Breathe in love and healing life, release all negative energy.

Sit in this state, breathing in and out for about thirty minutes. Visualize oneness with yourself and the Divine. Visualize yourself as light being. Feel peace within yourself.

Allow time to be without judgement. It is a time of expansion of the spirit. A time of releasing old negative thought patterns.

Give yourself a few minutes to return to normal consciousness.

Journal you experience.
