All living beings are comprised, in one way or another, of energy. In as much as we have our physical bodies in order to move about in this world, it is the energy within (as housed in the body’s different energy centers) that ultimately keeps us going. Also known as chakras, these energy centers each govern and regulate different organs in the body, and our lives in general. When the chakras are all in alignment, and the energy is allowed to course through them freely, then the body that houses them is healthy. In the same way, whenever negative energy is allowed to build up and remain housed in the body, this blockage will ultimately be manifested through health issues and/or difficulties in certain aspects of your life.

Here’s how open chakras can help you release the negativity:

1. Sit on the floor, ensuring your spine is upright. You can opt to employ the use of a half or full Lotus position, but sitting cross-legged on the floor or with your legs straight out in front of you will work just the same. All you are going for is for your pelvis to tilt forward, and your remain upright comfortably.
2. Take several deep breaths and quiet your mind. Rid yourself of all thoughts that may be bothersome. Imagine them to be clouds floating on the horizon—weightless and nothing to be concerned about.
3. Envision each chakra to have its own sphere of colored light. Start off by envisioning the crown chakra as a sphere of violet light hovering at the top of your head. Concentrate on this for several breaths before you move on to your third eye, which you must envision as a sphere of indigo-colored light. Then, envision the throat chakra as a blue-colored sphere. After that, move on to a green-colored sphere symbolizing your heart chakra. For your solar plexus, envision a sphere of glowing yellow. For the sacral chakra, think of the color orange. And lastly, think of a red-hued sphere for your root chakra, at the base of your spine.
4. As you envision the spheres of different colored lights, you must also envision them becoming linked to one another—the light of one chakra melting into the next, and the next one after that.
5. With the linked spheres in your mind’s eye, envision a bright white light emanating from your crown chakra, down to your third eye, then your throat, then your heart, and so on and so forth. As the ray of light hits each sphere, envision it turning into a ball of pure white energy. See it emanate through your different chakras and all throughout your body, and focus on sending it back up the crown chakra. Or, if you wish, you can focus instead on driving the light into the earth in order to better ground yourself. Better yet, you might also want to re-direct the light and use it to help those who require healing in any way.

If your interested in an even simpler way to open chakras, I’ve been experiencing great results after I started using binaural beats. For more information on this method, you can check out PowerofChakra.com
