CHAKRA BALANCING
Solar Plexus Chakra – (Manipura) –
Yellow
This is the third
of the seven major chakras and associated with the element Fire. Think of the
solar plexus chakra as the sun in your body. This chakra is positioned over one
of the main regions of the body that reacts to stress. This plexus of nerves
can often be felt as a tight knot if you press the area just below the sternum.
If you feel discomfort, there is some stress or blockage. To heal this you
might try to remove yourself from the source of stress; improve your health;
begin a routine of meditation and chakra ‘nourishment’ or seek the help of a
healer.

Solar plexus
imbalances will leave you feeling extremely edgy and depleted in energy. You
may become depressed, insecure and fearful. If this continues, the problems can
become imprinted and habitual. However when you overcome this, and you chakra
is balanced, depression turns to joy, insecurity turns to the experience of
love, and fearfulness turns into confidence in any situation.

this chakra are Citrine, Tigers Eye, Lemon Quartz and Malachite.
Good essential
oils that have a sympathetic resonance with this chakra are, Clary sage, Juniper
and Geranium.
You can also wear
more yellow clothes or eat more yellow foods, like banana, lemons or yellow
capsicum.
