There are seven energy centers located in the body that are called chakras. They are vertically aligned in the body beginning at the base of the spine and the seventh chakra is at the top of the head. Each of these energy centers has a specific purpose in our lives and to support each of us properly, they need to be cleared of any blockages. The blockages may be cleared by focused breathing techniques.
Many people have several chakras blocked. In addition, many people who have serious abundance issues have blockages in their lower chakras. The lower chakras support an individual’s survival issues including their abundance, work, sexuality, personal power etc. Many people with relationship issues have blockages in their heart chakra and individuals who have difficulty speaking "their truth" often have blockages in their throat chakras. The upper two chakras are directly related to intuition and spirituality and blockages at those areas often diminish or "shut down" a person’s inner guidance.
There are many wonderful books available that will explain the chakras in great detail such as Anatomy of the Spirit by Carolyn Myss, Ph.D. or Vibrational Medicine by Richard Gerber, M.D. (Refer to Recommended Reading for these and other selections)
Our purpose here is to reiterate the point that opening your chakras and keeping them open is VERY IMPORTANT and should not be underestimated. There are many wonderful breathing techniques that may be used to support your chakra attunement work and we are including a few below.
Breathing Colors Into Chakras
Each chakra has a specific color associated with it. For example, the first chakra is red, second chakra is orange, third chakra is yellow, fourth chakra is green, fifth chakra is blue (medium), sixth chakra is indigo, and the seventh chakra is violet.
Technique: Beginning at the first chakra, breathe the color red into the chakra on the in breath and hold the breath for the count of ten. Continue breathing red into the first chakra in this manner for three or four breaths then go to the next chakra and breath the color orange into that chakra. Continue breathing through each chakra until you have breathed through all chakras.
Opening the Crown Chakra and Third Eye
Technique: Imagine the most brilliant light imaginable and breathe this light in through your crown chakra and on to your pineal gland ( in the center of your head). On the out breath, breathe the light out through your third eye. Do this exercise for a few minutes each day to expand both the sixth and seventh chakras.
Opening the Heart Chakra
Variation 1: Imagine a brilliant white light in front of you and breathe this light through your heart to your third eye. On the out breath, breathe out the third eye and continue breathing in this circular way for a few minutes. During this breath as with every breath, it is important to focus your intention on clearing all blockages as you breathe through each chakra.
Variation 2: Imagine a Being of Light such as an ascended master or archangel in front of you. Choose one with whom you resonate and imagine the pink light of unconditional love streaming with each in breath from the Being of Light’s heart chakra directly into your heart chakra. On the out breath, visualize the pink light of unconditional love flowing out from your chakra directly back to the Being in front of you. In this exercise focus on the color pink as well as the quality of unconditional love and imagine that your heart chakra is flooded with unconditional love with every single breath.
Note: This is one of the most powerful breaths and can be used to breathe qualities you desire into each of your chakras. The combination of breathing qualities directly from a Being of Light with colors and your focus and intention is truly transformational.
Light From The Earth to Open Chakras
On the IN BREATH: Imagine a very powerful light from the earth flowing into each of your chakras and as the light flows into the chakra, imagine the chakra is totally clear of all obstacles.
On the Out BREATH: Imagine the very bright light flowing from the chakra out to your auric field that is surrounding your body. As the light flows to the auric field, imagine the aura being completely fortified
Once you have breathed through all your chakras, breath in a few more times up through all of your Chakras and imagine on each exhale that the breath of God is flowing through your entire aura.
Sequence of breaths through the chakras is very important for maximum benefit. 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 7th, 6th
Begin at the first chakra breathing in and out three times, then move to the second chakra breathing in and out three times. Continue breathing through each chakra sequentially up through the fifth chakra then go directly to the seventh chakra and finish at the sixth chakra. This is consistent with the ancient practices of the Egyptians as well as the Mayans
