ANAHATA (Meaning) UNSTRUCK SOUND - I LOVE - GREEN
UNCONDITIONAL LOVE - HOPE - COMPASSION - FORGIVENESS - TRUST - GRATITUDE - HEALING
Situated in the middle of your chest right above your heart, this energy spot feeds your deep need to both give and receive love without conditions. Known as the fourth chakra, it serves as the gateway linking your body's physical and spiritual higher chakras. It's key to your feelings, self-acceptance, letting go, and honesty. If it's out of sync, you might feel angry, jealous, lonely, or avoid social situations. But when it's in harmony, you're more likely to be full of love, joy, and appreciation.
Positive Affirmations
Affirm: I am fully open to give & receive unconditional love - I am loving & nurturing my mind, body & soul - I am loving myself & others easily
Overactive Heart Chakra
When this energy centre is too active, you might find yourself overwhelmed by emotions, feeling needy, envious, too demanding, and dependent on others. You could be over-giving, manipulative, overly critical, and placing conditions on love, trying too hard to please others, overly emotional, and too attached to physical possessions.
Underactive Heart Chakra
Feeling unloved or unworthy? An underactive heart chakra might leave you feeling isolated, judgemental, or fearful of closeness. It's crucial to embrace healing, cultivating trust and empathy within.
Element: Air
Immerse yourself in the soothing sounds of wind chimes, feeling them dance in the gentle breeze. A drive through the countryside, windows rolled down, lets the air embrace you, essential for activating the heart chakra. Meditate in the open air, allowing the element of air to rejuvenate your spirit.
