Balance Secrets: Food And Gemstones
If you want to
learn about the concept of chakra balance you have to understand
chakra’s in general first. Chakras are our energy stations or centers.
Chakras are your openings in your body for life energy to flow in and
out of your aura.
One of their
main functions is to vitalize our physical body and also to bring
about the development of your self-consciousness. Chakras are also
associated with our mental, physical, and emotional interactions.
Now how about
what chakra’s look like? In most depictions you will notice a chakra
is a funnel of sorts, and there are also smaller funnels within the
larger funnel. Sometimes chakras have been referred to looking almost
like a lotus flower.
In all there are
seven chakras in everyone’s body. Each has a specific color that is
associated with the individual chakras. We will learn the physical
location of each chakra too, and the benefits of chakra balance and
how it enhances our life and relieves so much of the stress that you
feel.
There are seven
chakra’s starting from the base of your spine and ending at your
head. They are the root chakra, sacral, solar plexus, heart, throat,
third eye or brow and ending at the crown chakra.
To accomplish a
chakra balance you can eat certain foods which help to ground and
re-energize your chakras. For your root chakra you should try
carrots, potatoes, parsnips, radishes, beets, garlic, eggs, meats,
beans, and tofu.
Sacral chakra
can be feed by melons, mangos, strawberries, almonds, honey, cinnamon
and more.
For you solar
plexus chakra, this will help with self-esteem, try eating flax seed,
cereal, milk, cheeses, ginger, mints, and others.
Heart chakra and
foods that will help heal emotional hurts try eating spinach, kale,
broccoli, green teas, basil, sage and thyme.
Next is your
throat chakra and to help to speak truth try eating lemons, limes,
kiwi, salt , lemon grass, apples, pears, and plums.
The brow chakra
and to help awaken third eye senses try blueberries, red grapes, black
berries, lavender, poppy seed.
For the final
chakra your crown chakra, this will help to open and clear spiritual
communication try the following incense sage, copal, myrrh,
frankincense, and juniper.
This is only a
partial list of some of the foods, drinks, and spices that will help
out your chakra. For a chakra balance you just need to learn how to
focus better on your chakra centers.
You can also do
a chakra balance by using gemstones and placing the gemstone on each
chakra point, with each point you can do an individual chakra balance
and leave a gemstone on your chakra for three to five minutes
depending on the amount of balance you feel you need to accomplish.
You would start at the root chakra when doing this.
You can use any
kind of gemstone, but some people suggest certain gemstones for each
chakra. But this list isn’t always the same for each person; you can
test this out by buying a few kinds of gemstones. Once you place the
gemstone on your chakra you will possibly notice a humming or a
feeling that feels good if you are using the proper gemstone. If you
feel a negative feeling, or just the gemstone doesn’t feel correct, do
not use that gemstone for that chakra again.
You can
experiment with different gemstones, and when you find the one that
feels the best you should make a list of which chakra and what
gemstone you are using. An example is black onyx being used for your
root chakra, this seems to be a very good choice for most people, but
once again it may not be the correct gemstone for your chakra. So
don’t feel that you are doing something wrong if a gemstone that
someone else suggested doesn’t work for you.
A chakra balance
can also be done all at once, put your gemstones on each chakra point
at the same time, and then leave them on for three to 25 minutes,
again depending on how much your chakra’s need to be balanced.
