Chakra Balancing

Now that your aura is sparkling, the next step in your energy Spring clean is to clear and balance your chakras. These energy vortexes running from the base of our spine to our crown are our emotional and energetic gatherers and transmitters. They can easily become sluggish, out of balance and muddied up.

As with the aura clearing, if you can do this exercise outside that’s good. Begin by taking a moment to be calm and relaxed. Centre yourself by imagining a silver cord coming from the earth, going through your feet, up through your body, out the top of your head and connecting up to the Universe.

Now bring your right hand up, palm towards you and about 6 inches above the top of your head, begin to circle it in a clockwise direction. As your hand circles, visualise clear white light coming from your palm. This light clears the crown chakra and your hand movement helps balance and activate it.

When you are ready move your hand down to a few inches away from the spot between your eyes - the third eye chakra. Repeat the visualization of the white light and the clockwise circling. The third eye chakra is very sensitive and you may actually sense the energy in your palm and body.

When you are ready move down to your throat chakra, again keeping your hand a few inches away from your body, and repeat the above.

The heart chakra is next, followed by the solar plexus - just below the rib cage. The sacral chakra is located just below the navel and the base chakra is just below the pubic bone.

There is no rush, just move on to the next chakra when you are ready.

Spend a few moments basking in this wonderful energy and then as a final polish, visualise a sparkling golden light enveloping you, protecting you.

In your own time, gently bring yourself back to a awareness of the world, grounding your energy lightly with the earth.
