This is week 4 of 7 of the Chakra System, and this one is all about the Heart Chakra!
HEART CHAKRA
Name: Ahahata
Color: Green, Pink
Mantra: Yam
Element: Air
Location: Heart
Stones/Crystals: Green Aventurine, Rose Quartz, Emerald, Rhodonite
The fourth of the seven chakras is at the centermost point of all the chakras. It is associated with love, compassion, forgiveness, and peace. This is the chakra most affected by grief and loss. When this chakra is out of balance, you may feel jealous, resentful, lonely, clingy, or depressed. When this chakra is in balance, you are compassionate, forgiving, have unconditional love of self, and accept yourself just as you are which also makes it easier to accept others just as they are.
To support your heart chakra, give yourself unconditional love and forgiveness. Give yourself the love that you always hoped you would receive from someone else. We are responsible for loving ourselves in this way. Treat yourself like you would treat the love of your life, because that is what you are. Other ways to support your heart chakra include wearing green or pink clothes/jewelry; eat foods of the same color; wear or hold a healing stone/crystal associated with the heart chakra; use the affirmations in this post.
HOW TO USE YOUR MALA:
Starting next to the guru bead, move your fingers from one counting bead to the next as you say the affirmations in the photo. Once you’ve returned to the guru bead, you have completed a full meditation!
