not wanting to see, that is, it sees beyond vision, hence all you need to influence your Meditation and to
Open Your Third Eye Chakra, Enhance Psychic Abilities, and Improve Mind Power are been expatiated
in this book.
Enhancing your third eyes also needs you to effect some chakras. All the chakras can be worked to
balance them and that the energy flows unhindered and without blockages, although it must also be borne
in mind that having this chakra with excellent functioning does not guarantee that we "see" as there are
other factors that prevent total vision: the expectations, conditioning, fears, etc. They are part of the veil
of illusion or maya..

The most helpful exercise to unlock the third eye is the sacred truth of the chakra, Meditation, reiki,
techniques of looking and other exercises will help us a lot to unlock the third eye but if when we see
reality as it is we turn a blind eye to avoid that such situation does not hurt us then we will be blocking
ourselves the vision. We all have the power of vision through the 6th Ajna chakra, we just have to
activate the energy for the chakra to flow

The power is within you. We all have the power of vision. Exercise the third eye and help yourself with
what most attracts you, be it meditating, exercising the breath that is always good and helps us for

THE THIRD EYE.: ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW.

The third eye or Ajna is one of the 7 charkras within Hindu beliefs, The third eye is one of the 7 main
chakras that we humans have according to Hinduism.

The third eye is a great eye with a multi faceted importance to the human race, it is referred as the minds
eye, inner in nature. The third eye cannot be seen, it is invisible, which is mystical and has an esoteric
concept. It took its location on the fore head, and it is also connected to the human pineal gland, and
provides in depth perception which is beyond an ordinary sight.

We open our eyes every day, to drive, watch a movie, look into the eyes of that special person , we can
only do it because we have our eyes open, right? Well, with the third eye the same thing happens, but if
we open it, we will experience fascinating things. So the ideal question would be, what can we experience
if we have the third eye open?

With the third eye open we experience an increased perception of the energies that surround us. Which
we can feel thanks to the expansion of different skills. I could talk to you about a lot of them, but today
I'm going to focus on these four that are very important to me.

The third eye opens many doors for you, which can be of:
  Intuition. The most interesting thing, or what perhaps most attracts our attention is the issue of the
expansion of intuition. Having a good intuition allows you to access a lot of things; clairvoyance,
premonitions, remote vision, auric vision and even knowing things innately. What does it sound
very exciting to? It really is , With a good intuition you will always have an advantage in life.
You can avoid future problems, see which path is best for you, make difficult decisions more
easily ,

 Dreams. This is a topic that I love, with a third active and open eye you will expand the quality
and memory of your dreams. What does this mean? Well, your dreams will be much more vivid,
they will have more quality, so when you wake up you will remember it better. You will have the
ability to have lucid dreams more easily.

 Imagination. Having a third eye open expands our imagination. Let's be honest, we all like to ride
our mental films, right? and if that movie is in HD much better. Well, with a third eye open and
healthy, you will have easier to mount these films and improve their "image quality". Later we
will go deeper into the subject of imagination.

 Creativity. There are many artists who say they need their muse, well, this muse exists and is
called third eye. This helps us expand our creativity and inspiration. If you did not know, perhaps
it is a good time to give a little love, you will see how you will be inspired by many things in life,
you will have a lot of ideas. Opening your third eye, you will wake up your inner artist, and who
knows, you may discover great potential.

The exercise to expand the potential of our third eye is very simple: you just have to find a quiet moment,
sitting in a meditation position, and think about the sacred truth of the chakra, which is "I only seek the
truth." You need to repeat it, as if it were a mantra.

Since the world does not adapt to our needs or tastes, we tend to look the other way making the most real
perception of the outer plane impossible.

The power of the third eye can manifest itself in different ways in different people, in some cases, it
allows us to hear and sometimes clearly in dreams.

It is a mystical and esoteric concept that refers to a hypothetical invisible eye or energetic and etheric
vortex that would provide a perception beyond what could be perceived with ordinary sight. This is one
of the definitions given to the third eye that has also been called the inner eye. In certain dharmic spiritual
traditions such as Hinduism , the third eye would correlate with ajna, or the chakra located on the
forehead. In Theosophy the concept of the third eye is related to the so-called pineal gland.

Why is it important to know its full potential? Because the third eye also designates the entrance that
would lead to inner realms and higher states of consciousness. It is often associated with religious visions,
such as clairvoyance or extrasensory perception , as well as the ability to observe the chakras and the
human aura , precognitionand get to experience extracorporeal experiences . People who claim to have
the ability to use their third eye are normally called seers or fortune tellers in the western world.
Recent studies with DMT (Strassman, 2001) bear witness to experiences in the framework of the
transpersonal, dissolution of the ego, experimentation of past lives , extraterrestrial abductions, encounter
with entities, trips through the cosmos and other planets, experiences of unification with the universe ,
Nirvana, encounter with deities (Jesus, Krishna, Buddha etc.).

The Egyptians called the third eye the "eye of Horus" showing a relationship between the pupil of the eye
of Horus and the location of the pineal gland. The third eye is also related to the concept of the "eye that
sees everything" associated with sects Mystics and their relationship with the pyramid printed on the
dollar and the creation of a new world order.

There are different types of meditation to wake up the third eye , these focus their focus on the middle
part of the head, at the height of the eyebrows, between the eyes at the height of the pineal gland,
imagining projections starting from this point outwards.

The Pineal Gland

The pineal gland has always aroused great interest. Descartes said of this tiny gland, housed right in the
center of our brain, that it was the "seat" of the soul and the nucleus where all our thoughts were brewing.
There is no lack of who also speaks of this structure as our "third eye", that energetic vortex that would
offer us a kind of perception that would go beyond the sense of sight.

Now, leaving aside these mystical or spiritual perspectives and their somewhat colorful tradition, the
pineal gland or the cerebral epiphysis encloses in itself, a function as interesting as it is enigmatic. It
regulates our cycles, our circadian rhythms, the entrance to sexual maturity and even many of our
sensations. It is a structure as unique as it is fascinating.

The pineal gland is more than our third eye. It is a small conductor inspired by sunlight, she is the one
who subtly accompanies our cycles, our moments of relaxation, our awakening to maturity ,

One of the most interesting aspects of the pineal gland is that being so small (just 8 mm) receives an
immense flow of blood, almost as much as our kidneys. It is shaped like a tree (hence the term "pineal")
but its trunk, its branches, tend to solidify very soon, so much so that between 12 or 20 years of age it
already shows some calcification.

To date, it is not known with complete accuracy all the functions that the pineal gland or cerebral
epiphysis can perform. It is known that most vertebrates have it, and that even certain amphibians and
reptiles have a very similar structure. Now, it should be said that few brain structures have raised so many
mysteries and challenges throughout the history of medicine.

Tutatara, for example, are a type of endemic reptile in New Zealand known to have a "third parietal or
pineal eye" right in the middle of its head. It has retina and crystalline and fulfills a hormonal and
thermoregulation function. Something fascinating, there is no doubt.

We know that the pineal gland was first described in the third century BC. He was Herophilus of
Chalcedon and attributed very particular functions: he saw in the pineal gland a valve capable of
regulating our thinking. Later, Galen of Pergamum already gave him a slightly tighter and more accurate
explanation. He described it as a gland of the nervous system.
The truth is that the famous Galen was not misguided. This small structure located between the organs of
the thalamus and bathed in turn in the cerebrospinal fluid is, indeed, a small endocrine gland with
interesting functions. They are the following:
The pineal gland and serotonin

The pineal gland is a photosensitive structure and one of its main biological functions is precisely to
secrete melatonin. This hormone derived from serotonin, as we know, which modulates our wakefulness
and sleep patterns (circadian rhythms) and in turn establishes our entry into puberty.
It is also known that it acts as a tuned biological clock. Its activity is very intense until the age of 7 or 8,
when the production of melatonin begins to decline and, little by little, the mechanisms of sexual maturity
begin to be orchestrated.
However, there are studies that indicate that this structure is very sensitive to certain environmental
chemicals. In some countries of the United States it is being seen that girls reach puberty very early due to
the exposure of certain components, such as fluoride.

A study carried out in 2016 at the University of Shanghai, something interesting was discovered. There is
a direct relationship between our cardiovascular health and the pineal gland. The melatonin produced by
this exceptional gland has a very positive impact on our blood pressure, on the strength and elasticity of
our veins and arteries and on the resistance of the heart muscles.

Neuroscience continues to reveal amazing and interesting facts about the pineal gland. It has for example
a nervous tissue and it’s characteristic consisting of astrocytes and pinealocytes, surrounding a layer of
the matter. The former support neurons and the latter are those that release melatonin.

A curious aspect of the pineal gland is the fact that it is very sensitive to drugs and any type of chemical
(hence in certain areas due to the high degree of environmental pollution, it can accelerate the sexual
maturity of children). Something that has been observed for example is that there are patients who have
adverse effects on fluoxetine because their pineal gland is more active than normal.
Also, certain types of drugs with psychedelic effects such as dimethyltryptamine (DMT), have a greater
sensitivity in this small structure and despite the curiosity that has always aroused throughout history, its
true functions were recently discovered. In fact, the tasks of the pineal gland continue to be described
today given the latest advances in neuroimaging techniques.

We are therefore facing a type of gland that despite being integrated right in the center of our brain, is
incredibly sensitive to our environment. It is a tiny biological beacon in humans and a vestigial organ in
some animals.

Being lonely according to some research means that the ability to analyze is different from that of others,
as well as certain parts of the brain.
Neurologists seek above all to separate the mystical or spiritual aspect of the scientist. Hence, journals
such as the Journal of Pineal Research offer us continuous studies in order to delimit a little more the
dimensionality of the cerebral epiphysis, the same that many already consider as the "master key" of the
activation of much of our internal glands

The pineal gland is a master key that translates the signals of our environment into endocrine responses.

We now propose a simple exercise. From today, we will take into account this internal "little eye" that
secretly regulates many of our daily cycles. Think of it as a compass, as in a small and wonderful organ
that will allow you to tune much better with your body and the environment.
Keys to take care of our pineal gland
The pineal gland is a photosensitive endocrine regulator, which means that it needs to maintain proper
harmony with the rhythms of sunlight. Hence, it was very appropriate that we go to sleep always at the
same time, that we always get up in harmony with the sun ,

The impact of electromagnetic fields on the pineal gland. Like light, this type of waves interrupt the
process of secretion of melatonin. Something as common as going to bed with your mobile phone or
computer can cause minor alterations in the pineal gland. All this translates into insomnia, fatigue, stress
or reduction of work performance , It is important to take it into account.

Meditation and moments of calm. The cerebral epiphysis also allows us to enhance our moments of calm
and relaxation to better connect with ourselves. People who practice meditation, for example, experience
a pleasant sensation because the pineal gland secretes endorphins, thus rewarding us for these enriching
moments where body and mind are in harmony.

Pineal gland: functions and anatomy

Within the brain there are numerous structures with very different functions, which are connected with a
large number of body systems. While we can generally consider that the nervous system has an effect on
other body systems, some of the structures that are part of it are also considered part of other body
systems.

This is the case of the pineal gland or epiphysis, which in addition to part of the nervous system is an
important part of the endocrine system.

The first records on the study of this structure date from the third century BC, in which it was proposed
that it regulated the flow of thoughts. Later it would be analyzed by Galen, Descartes and other multiple
thinkers and professionals from various fields. The study of the pineal gland advanced and deepened
especially from the twentieth century, in which they began to study their functions scientifically from the
study of cases of patients with tumors in this area.

Today, we know that the pineal gland or epiphysis is a structure located in the dorsomedial part of the
diencephalon, between the upper collicles and over the third cerebral ventricle. It is an endocrine
regulation center that participates in a multitude of different fundamental processes for the development
of the organism, sending different hormones to the blood circuit.

With a shape similar to that of a pine cone (similarity from which its name derives), the pineal gland has
interesting properties, since it has been shown to be photosensitive, reacting to the level of ambient
lighting. Similarly, it seems to be affected by external chemicals and even electromagnetic waves.
Irrigation and innervation

The pineal gland is heavily irrigated at the blood level, at a level similar to that of the kidneys. It is a
structure that actively participates in the secretion of various hormones, melatonin being the main one but
also influencing the emission of follicle stimulating and luteinizing hormone. Subsequently these
hormones reach the blood, which takes them to their target organs.

Regarding the nerve connections of the pineal gland, it is innervated by the autonomic nervous system,
both by the sympathetic and parasympathetic branches. On a sympathetic level, its main nervous
connection is the upper cervical ganglion.
The pineal gland is a relevant structure and linked to various situations. As part of both the nervous
system and the endocrine system, its basic function is the emission of various hormones that will alter
different brain nuclei and other body systems. main functions of this structure are the following.
1. Regulation of biorhythms

The pineal gland is the part of the brain that, in reaction to the amount of light present in the environment,
is responsible for secreting melatonin. Synthesized from serotonin, this hormone is implicated in the
regulation of circadian and infradian rhythms, so being the main secretor of melatonin, the epiphysis has a
primary function in regulating the sleep-wake cycle.

When visual information from the optic nerve reaches the epiphysis (having passed through the
suprachiasmatic nucleus), the upper cervical ganglion indicates that the ambient illumination is low or
non-existent, the pineal gland proceeds to secrete the hormone known as melatonin, which will
subsequently be sent to different brain regions. In the presence of lighting, however, the production of
melatonin is inhibited.
2. Development and maturation

In adolescent cases with tumors in this gland manifested an early puberty. Subsequent research has put
this fact in relation to the melatonin production of this structure.

During the first years of life the pineal gland is strongly activated, decaying
the production of melatonin at eight-twelve years, at which time the first physiological changes that will
culminate with the passage from child to adult begin to develop. Thus, through various investigations it
has been shown that the activity of the pineal gland delays puberty, beginning this stage of life when it is
less active.
3. Sexual behavior

The pineal gland actively participates in the secretion of various hormones, among which are some of
those that govern the menstrual cycle in women, specifically luteinizing and follicle stimulating
hormones.
In addition to this, by regulating biological rhythms through melatonin, the epiphysis also influences
seasonal sexual behavior in other animal species. The pineal gland interacts with other structures linked to
sexuality, such as the septal nuclei, to ensure proper functioning in this activity so important from the
point of view of evolution.

4. Emotion and happiness

The participation of the epiphysis or pineal gland in the emotional field is of great relevance. In addition
to other hormones with an effect on mood, the pineal gland participates in the generation of endorphins,
the hormones that cause states of happiness and allow pain to be regulated. In fact, its involvement in the
limbic system makes it a fundamental component of emotional processes, which depend on the
interaction between the brain and the organs distributed by the body that secrete hormones.
5. Pigmentation

Although it may not seem as relevant as the previous ones, the melanin secreted by the pineal gland
participates in skin pigmentation, giving a slightly dark tone in multiple species. This function is
secondary, and in fact there are genetic variants of the human being in which melanin barely has an effect
on the way in which the skin tone changes. On the other hand, in cases of albinism this function
disappears, with all the biological and social problems that this entails.
6. Participation in other aspects
Apart from its participation in the aforementioned, the pineal gland participates in other processes. For
example, it has been shown that it has to do with body temperature regulation. Likewise, the hormones it
generates also have an effect on aspects such as attention, concentration, memory and other higher mental
functions. Keep in mind that virtually any brain structure linked to hormone secretion has an effect on
cognition, and the pineal gland is no exception.

The Third Eye refers to an important point of energy located in the eyebrow, above the base of the nose.
It is related to the sixth chakra (Anja), also called the Consciousness chakra.

One of the oldest legends about the Third Eye, indicates that at the beginning of Creation it was visible on
the forehead of humans but, when its owners moved away from the spiritual being, it was losing functions
and hiding under layers of skin, until disappearing, remaining in latent state.

Many cultures perceive the Third Eye as an entrance to Enlightenment or other elevated states of
Consciousness, which allow to complete the process of self-knowledge, expansion of spirituality and
understanding of true reality.

Benefits Of Third Eye Activation

The blockages in the Third Eye are perceived as the distortion of reality, which is assumed under false
beliefs and prejudices (Maya veil), which prevent the manifestation of Truth. The concept of the world is
false, and negative emotions such as hate, indifference and selfishness gain space.

On the other hand, when the Third Eye is open and works harmoniously, the person feels comfortable in
their environment; he knows how to project and receive love; it frees itself from harmful feelings; He
actively lives spirituality and compassion, especially towards his fellow men.

He also learns to connect with his true essence and demonstrates it in a positive way; it expands your
awareness and the perception you have of the world.

According to Osho, this immobility caused the flow of energy to the eyes to stop, and he will look for
another way to express himself, choosing the channel of the Third Eye, because it is the closest, reacting
it gradually.

The Third Eye can be developed, through the awakening of Consciousness, which comprises:

 constant meditation;

 sensitivity to the internal and external environment;

 avoid criticism and judgments (own and third parties);

 contact outside without artificial stimuli (electronic devices);

 express yourself creatively;

 and enjoy the details of life

How to Balance your Chakra

The first chakra forms the basis and foundation of emotional and mental health. Located at the beginning
of the spine, it represents the earth element and therefore symbolizes our union to it in the physical and
mental plane.

If you still do not know very well what are the chakras do not forget to read this chapter to expand your
knowledge on the subject: Chakra Yoga

I am worthy of abundance here and now and I have the right to obtain it in the physical world.

Root Chakra

As if it were a tree, we need to feel rooted in life in order to feel safe. The deeper our roots are, the more
physical and emotional stability we have.

A strong base is essential for the further development and growth of our being. The root chakra feeds and
gives strength to the will to live.

The Root Chakra is one of the most blocked and difficult to keep purified.

If at any time during your life you have experienced situations such as the divorce of your parents, their
difficulty in paying rent, you have lived in relative poverty, you have seen or experienced abuse by other
children, or you grew up in A dangerous neighborhood is very likely to have dragged the blockage over
the years.

But don't worry, in this chapter we will see how to balance it, heal it and enjoy life through the spirit.

10 Signs of an Unbalanced Root Chakra

If you doubt or are not sure if your first chakra is being affected by behaviors and attitudes of your
character, reserve five minutes to devote your attention and thoughts to see if you feel identified with
these signs of imbalance:

 You are terrified of losing control.

 You tend to gain weight in the lower half of your body (for example in the "michelines" or
thighs).
 You often suffer foot problems such as swelling, infection, cramping or poor circulation.
 You don't find it comfortable to show others how you really are and tend to hide traits of your
character.
 You have to eat junk food or stop eating completely when you do not feel as comfortable as you
would like.
 Money worries you too much and when you think about it or situations that involve your family,
your mind is filled with catastrophic thoughts.
 You tend to store and store unnecessary things that make your space full of junk.
 You feel that you never have enough and that you cannot stop fighting for what you want.
 You don't usually trust others.
 You have a hard time disconnecting from work.
In addition, the Chakras can not only be unbalanced, they can also enjoy excess energy or a defect in it.
Here are some features according to their status:

Features in imbalance: Fear, instability, distrust, insecurity, materialism and greed, constipation, obesity,
addictions to the game and food.

Excess: Agitated, reactive, aggressive, impatient, selfishness. (Too much energy flows).

Defect: Blocked, lack of spark in life, lethargic, with fear in the face of the future. (Not enough energy
flows).

Balancing Chakras

Balancing the root chakra must be done both externally and internally.

To balance the exterior we must use gems, crystals and stones, yoga poses and aromatherapy.

To work inside, we must do so by reciting mantras, meditation, food and work in thoughts that bring us
closer to negativity, replacing them with attitudes of abundance and well-being.

We must remember that when it comes to healing the Root Chakra, the outside world is often a reflection
of what is going on inside.

In other words, your way of life and internal state are translated into the outside world.
How does a balanced Root Chakra make us feel?

A balanced Root Chakra provides the fundamental basis for the spirit.

When this works correctly, we have seen a sense of security and freedom flooding us with the world
around us.

In addition, it gives us mental stability and energy to achieve all our goals. Health is also involved as it
tends to improve. In other words, our body feels free and safe, leaving possible illnesses and personal
blockages.

Mantras for the Chakras

Next, we have gathered a series of yoga poses, products, foods and mantras that will balance your root
chakra:
Aromatherapy and essential oils for the first Chakra:

Essential oils and aromatherapy are fantastic allies to combat the imbalances of the chakras.

Our first chakra serves as the foundation and foundation of everyone else, which is why a foot massage
with these oils is great for harmony.

The feet are identified with our roots to the ground and are the ones that provide the feeling of stability
when we walk.

You can also vaporize them in the environment to obtain a clean and pure space:
  Angelica Root
 Benzoin
 Cedar
 Frankincense Oil
 Myrrh
 Moss oil
 Patchouli
 Nard
 Vetiver

The images will take you to Amazon so you can buy easy, uncomplicated and with fast shipping the
different essential oils and diffusers.
Gems, crystals and stones for the Root Chakra:

Red is the color of the first chakra and, therefore, all stones with that tone will help strengthen it.

Healing your Chakras with crystals and stones is very simple. You just have to take them or have them
with you. It can be in the form of a small jewel, ring or simply put in the pocket. The mere fact that these
gems accompany you will influence your energies and you will feel more balanced.

These postures help to open and align the Muladhara Chakra, bringing balance and peace to your body:

 Purvottanasana (Table up)

 Pavanamuktasana, (knees to chest)
 Janu Sirsansana, (Head to knee)
 Padmasana, (Lotus Pose)
 Malasana (Squat Pose)

To make it easier for you to perform these postures and others that also influence the Root Chakra, we
recommend that you follow this video of Linda Sol Yoga:
Meals to balance the First Chakra:

At lunchtime, the first chakra is linked to the sense of smell. This makes meals with a good smell, or
smells that evoke you the most suitable for your balance. It is also linked to the roots so the tubers are a
good option.

Remember not to go with junk food and eat a balanced diet. Your chakras, your body and your mind will
thank you!

Here is a list of foods and meals that will help you achieve your goal:

 Parsnip
 Soy
 Tofu
 Eggs
 Beans and Beans
  Red meat
 Beet
 Potatoes
 Garlic
 Onions

Chakra Healing Meals

Mantras for the first chakra:

Reserve five minutes a day to recite these mantras. You will achieve confidence, security and peace of
mind.

 I am here and I am real.

 I feel my body as my home.
 I trust the wisdom of my body.
 I am in balance.
 I trust my decisions.
 I am prepared for simplicity and purity.
 I accept life with all my heart.

In addition to these mantras we recommend you follow this video when you need to relax or feel inner
calm. It is one of the ones we like the most for the Root Chakra:

Although all this information can be overwhelming to the prince it is important to take it easy and reflect
on it.

Bringing into our life actions such as mindfulness, relaxation and meditation practices or the mere fact of
slowing down our lives causes us to connect with our Root Chakra.

The first steps as we have seen are to check the state of our Root Chakra and then take action through
essential oils, gems, postures and mantras to heal the first Chakra.

The second chakra:

Svadhisthana, is also known as the sexual and creativity chakra.

It is located under the pubic bone, below the navel, and covers the genital region and the hypogastric
plexus. The word svadhisthana can be translated as "the abode of being" and the element of the second
chakra is water, which is equivalent to cohesion. A second balanced chakra evokes feelings of well-being,
abundance, pleasure and joy.

You can open this chakra with creative expression and honoring your body.

Creativity: The emphasis of the second Chakra

As humans, creating is part of our nature. This creativity can be expressed as procreation, but the energy
of the second chakra is not limited to procreating babies. When cooking, baking or taking care of the
garden, we are creating. We create when we find a new solution to an old problem. The moment we take
raw materials, physical or mental, and transform them into something new, we are using our creative
energy.

The problem with creativity is that we are often discouraged from making creative efforts, and this starts
from education. Once we go through the stage where it is completely acceptable to color, paint or cut
paper, it seems that we should become less creative beings. To comply, follow the rules and fit into a
group, sometimes we lose our creative energy and, with it, our unique ideas. Adults get used to doing
what is right, following the latest trend or what is acceptable to others. So, when we are asked to
abstractly invent something new, we may have trouble doing it.

We may feel open and creative in some aspects of life and feel self-conscious in others. If you ask me to
write a book or an essay, I can do it easily. But if you ask me to draw something, paint or even prepare a
great meal without a recipe to follow, I don't feel too qualified to do so. But if they told me that I should
paint a beautiful picture because my life depends on it, maybe I could live up to the occasion. Why?
Because I would risk doing it.

The reason we stopped being creative or taking creative risks is because at some point along the way,
someone told us we weren't good or we couldn't do it. To unlock the energy of the second chakra, you
must take risks and not be afraid of failure.

The game is a great way to start opening this chakra. Have you ever seen children play? Children can
spend several hours assembling a Lego tower, a sand castle or a beautiful doll house. Then, the same boy
or girl will destroy his masterpiece in an instant and start from scratch as if it were not the big deal.

Start playing like children. If your gourmet food doesn't work out, what's the problem? If the plant in your
pot dies in a week, plant another. And if your work project is a failure, it does not mean that your career
came to an end. As a boy or girl who plays, start over.

How to balance Svadhisthana

In addition to being open to creativity in your daily life, you can balance the second chakra by
maintaining a healthy sex life, and also by honoring and respecting your body. Connect with your
emotions and see if there is any feeling you are holding on to. Commit to process those emotions in a
healthy way.

Breathing with the left nostril, called Ida Nadi breathing, will help you open the second chakra, as it
attracts lunar energy. All you have to do is close the right nostril with the first two fingers of the right
hand, then inhale and exhale through the left nostril; You just have to do it 8 to 10 times.

Meditation with a focus on the second chakra helps you generate personal magnetism, refine your
behavior, get rid of diseases and be more long-lived.

There are other ways to open a blocked chakra, which include the use of yoga, mantras, colors and gems.

The yoga asanas that help open and align Svadhisthana are ,

 Pelvic circles sitting: Sitting cross-legged or in the middle of the lotus with your hands on your
knees, make circles with your torso. Go aside 5 or 6 times and then change direction.
  Baddha konasana (the pose of the butterfly) with forward inclination: Sitting, join the soles of the
feet. Let your knees touch the floor and glue the heels to the pelvis. Lengthen the torso and lean
forward.
 Bhujangasana (cobra posture): Billing
You face down with your feet on the floor. Place your hands under your shoulders and lift your head,
chest and abdomen slowly, keeping your belly button on the floor.

The sound of the mantra that corresponds to the sacral chakra is VAM. When singing VAM, the
vibrations open and align this chakra. The color of the second chakra is orange and the gems for this
chakra are amber, orange calcite, carnelian or hematite.

Third Chakra: the will of the spiritual warrior

The third chakra is the center of energy, of the power of will, of the sense of control and coordination
It is the force that drives you to act and complete the conceptualization, the visualizations you have in
life.

The center of the navel is our principle. It is the first point through which a human being receives food
and energy to live as a fetus in his mother's womb. Once the physical connection with the mother ends,
the center of the navel continues its function in a more subtle plane: it is the area that collects energy from
the cosmos. When walking and alternating the movement of legs and arms, you exercise a function of the
body and the hairs of the body that accumulates energy at the point of the navel.

The third chakra is the body's reserve source of energy. In this area the Kundalini energy begins. The
reserve of energy stored in this area is strengthened and then passes through two reserve channels towards
the base of the column, thus waking up the sleeping Kundalini, curled up in the first chakra, which begins
its journey through the spine.

Stimulation to strengthen the navel point, because energy starts there, and to distribute it, is a central part
of the kriyas of Kundalini Yoga. Therefore, the first thing to do when you wake up, in the morning, is the
Stretch Pose: lift your head and legs 15 centimeters and practice Fire Breathing. This stimulates the navel
point. When that energy flows properly, it creates a coordination between all the organs of the body.
Stimulate your elimination functions, you feel you have enough energy to support your actions of the day
and will to project your energy in the realization that anticipates your visions.

The petals of the third chakra are 10. The number 10 represents being complete, having completed a
cycle. The sense of the individual being is represented by the 1 and the sense of the infinite being is
represented by the 0. The 10 petals mean that the person who has achieved mastery over the third chakra
knows how to initiate and complete an action. That is why it is associated with the archetype of the
spiritual warrior, he who knows his mission, emits energy, acts and carries it out.

A spiritual warrior is aware, although he does not necessarily know the full purpose of a particular
mission or war. A spiritual warrior knows how to serve the True King, act in relation to his highest
consciousness, although he has not necessarily awakened the energy of the upper chakras in the heart, the
eyebrows and the crown (love, intuition, fullness). The essence of a spiritual warrior is that he is not
afraid and can act with integrity in any circumstance.

A person with the third strong chakra will have the feeling that his life and the quality of his life depend
on what he does and does; You can shape, direct and develop what happens in your life. Feel a deep
confidence. The fire element associated with the chakra represents the will to initiate.
When you doubt the first chakra, secure your situation and sustain your old habits. When you doubt in the
second chakra, observe your feelings and follow your passion. Do something, move the boat, project your
point of view, get a vision, an image, sent from your highest being. A person acting from the third chakra
is rarely still.

When this chakra dominates, the person is lush and expressive. It is associated with the yellow color. A
person who dresses from this chakra will wear colorful, colorful dresses, will capture your attention and
stimulate the view.

When the energy of the third chakra is insufficient, the person has to compensate for it. If you feel you
have no energy to complete your task, you will look for other sources of energy. These can be stimulants,
drugs, food. If you have many emotions, anger or guilt, resentment, pure ambition, and feel that you do
not have the energy to express them, you will automatically begin to gather energy in the center of the
navel instinctively, because that accumulation is what prepares you to initiate an action , and also to
awaken the Kundalini and consciousness, to start the path of the spirit.

There is a special relationship between the navel point and the use of the mantra. When the tip of the
tongue and the point of the navel move simultaneously, that extra pulse of energy given by the navel
moves the words to the kingdom of anahat. Anahat means "without limits", the feeling of a powerful
projection. The act of speaking receives the quality of the powerful will of the warrior. Try this: when you
repeat a mantra and vibrate the tip of the tongue, say it from the central channel, the shushmana, and the
navel point vibrates at the same time. It is not necessary to speak loudly or shout. Each cell will begin to
vibrate with the energy that comes out of the third chakra. Experience the following mantra with the
above tips: After cleaning your pranic channels, sitting with the right spine, sing in a continuous rhythm
Har, being aware of the tip of the tongue and simultaneously pulling the navel. Use the CD or cassette
with the Tantric Har. See what happens to you when you systematically gather (accumulate, put) and
release (relax, take out) the energy from the navel point.

The third chakra is the gateway to the fourth chakra. The three lower chakras represent the realm of the
unconscious. The diaphragm of the body is like the surface of the earth, and above it, the heart chakra is
the principle of consciousness. Strengthening the navel point is part of gathering and organizing the
energies of the three lower chakras to penetrate the higher realm of consciousness. Without a third strong
chakra you will have many ideas and good intentions but they will not bear fruit, they will not be realized.
With a third strong chakra, even your smallest intentions will create the action and move the ethers.

The qualities associated with the third chakra are highly appreciated in our culture. We admire the one
who goes after their goals, the one who initiates projects, the entrepeneur, the one who runs risks, the one
who raises his hand first and takes the risk of accepting a task regardless of the safety and certainty of its
results.

Some of the best kriyas to work at this center are Stretch Pose, Sat Kriya and Archer Pose.

An excellent and short kriya is Maha Shakti Kriya:

Sit with your spine straight, with your legs together and straight forward. The arms on the sides of the
body with the hands resting on the floor next to the hips. Inhale and slowly raise your legs to 60 °, exhale
and lower. Make this move 10 times. After the tenth time, hold your legs up, stretch your arms to the
sides parallel to the floor and balancing yourself in Cantilever Pose, do Fire Breathing for 3 minutes,
looking at your feet. Finally, inhale, support, exhale and relax. Maha means great, Shakti means energy. It
is a stimulation of the navel center to put you into action and move in the right direction to complete your
goals.

Notice that the third chakra regulates the view, the fourth chakra gives us the opening to the realm of
sensations through touch and the fifth chakra gives us the power of creativity through subtle sound.
Vision and vision are associated with stimulation of the parasympathetic nervous system. Vision and
vision give us the sense of control. Many successful people who constantly formulate plans and projects,
often visualize their goals and thus create a concrete image. The tangibility of the image, the concretion of
each of its parts, increases the sense of focus and will associated with the third chakra. For this same
reason, many people in meditation prefer to concentrate on a visualization rather than a mantra. Visual
access gives a stronger sense of control, will and easily connects with the lower chakras. The visual
capacity certainly affects all the chakras, but it is finally the sensation of vibration, the sense of sound,
which opens the doors to merge completely with and surrender to the highest chakras.

A person with a strong third chakra will have a relationship with their emotions to achieve their goals. He
will also turn to the past to obtain information for his achievements in the future. The action from this
chakra is not necessarily strategy, but it is always focused and intelligent tactics.

In one of the KRI manuals the whole process to feel the pulse in the navel area is described. If the pulse is
located exactly in the center, it indicates that the health of that person is in optimal conditions. If the pulse
is shifted up, sideways or down, it indicates the condition of the body that you must adjust. Diagnosis
through the navel and its adjustment is an elementary capacity used by the Kundalini yogis and is one of
the pillars of the diagnosis of Ayurvedic medicine. There are many kriyas in Kundalini Yoga that ask you
to finally relax deeply and meditate on the pulse of the navel point. This deep meditation in the center of
the navel, after Opening the energies, provides deep healing and many miraculous cures.

The Fourth Chakra

The fourth chakra is in the center of the seven chakras, since there are three below and three above.

The fourth chakra, which is also known as the heart chakra, is located in the center of the chest and
encompasses the heart, the cardiac plexus, the thymus gland, the lungs and the breasts. It also regulates
the lymphatic system. The Sanskrit word for the fourth chakra is Anahata, which means "liberated" or
"unharmed." The name means that, beyond the pain and complaints of past experiences, lies a pure and
spiritual place where there is no pain.

Do you have trouble finding the perfect balance? Do you want to make sense of your existence but you
still haven't made it? Do not you value yourself enough and therefore do not finish feeling good with you?
Do you think your relationships with others could be better than they are?

Of the seven main chakras, he is the one who is related to universal love, relationships, feelings, openness
to life and compassion.

It is also related to balance, self-confidence, forgiveness, healing and well-being; and is responsible for
balancing lungs, chest and heart.

The chakra room is known as the love, thymus, heart or Anahata chakra; its meaning is ‘intact’, ‘not hit’;
and it is located in the middle of the chest, at the height of the heart.
Its color is green, pink and gold; his mantra is yam, his musical note is the sustained Fa, it is governed by
the sense of touch and its element is air.

In addition, it is the center of the chakra system and one of the most important, so it acts as a bridge
between the three lower and more material chakras, and the three higher and more spiritual chakras.

On the other hand, if you feel a pressure in the chest and your breathing is difficult and forced, you will
probably need to harmonize it.

You will also need to activate it if you have a tendency to lock yourself in, if you avoid interpersonal
relationships, if you have negative thoughts and if you are afraid to express your feelings for fear of
rejection.

But it is not the only thing: depression, loneliness, reluctance to forgive, insensitivity, a passive and sad
attitude, difficulty in showing love and health problems such as asthma, hypertension, heart ailments and
lung diseases are also symptoms of The fourth chakra must be harmonized.
Basically, when the heart chakra is blocked we feel great sadness, imbalance and disconnection from the
world while evaporating the desire to live.

That is why when the heart chakra is harmonized we can experience unconditional love, compassion,
acceptance, fulfillment and enjoy a perfect balance.

In addition, it infuses a great force and a great power of conviction, strengthens the heart and the
respiratory system, and makes us feel calm and cheerful.

Ways to activate the fourth chakra

And if what you want is to know how to have the fourth chakra correctly harmonized, you can put into
practice some of the options we have selected for you.
Read them and choose the one that works best for you:

1.- Music therapy. Any classical music, New Age music or sacred music has a harmonizing effect on your
fourth chakra. Listening to them will make you feel so much better, you will be allowing energy to
circulate.

2.- Aromatherapy. There is no aroma that has a harmonizing effect as strong as the essence of roses. Its
vibrations heal the wounds of the heart, but also restore joy, and favor harmony.

If you want, you can do this simple exercise: light a rose scent incense in a place where you can rest easy.
Relax, close your eyes, feel the aroma and look inside yourself.

Then, write down everything you could see inside you while the incense was on.

3.- Reiki. Did you know that reiki helps you balance your chakras? And best of all, absolutely everyone
can learn to do it.
4.- Gemotherapy. There are several precious stones that help harmonize the fourth chakra, such as
kunzina, emerald or jade.
Many people prefer to make a pendant with this mineral and thus always be under their influence. And it
not only favors softness, tenderness and love, but it helps heal the wounds of the heart. It also teaches you
to accept and love yourself, it helps you open your heart and makes you sensitive to different disciplines
such as music, poetry or painting.

5.- Yoga. If you need to recover from sentimental matters, the fish's position will help you; since it
dissolves emotional tensions. In addition, it will give you a feeling of freedom, openness and joy. It also
regulates moods and emotions.

On the other hand, if you need to activate the fourth chakra in any of its aspects, the camel's posture will
be very useful, since it is a posture where the chest is raised towards the sky and therefore it is ideal to
unlock the Anahata chakra.

6.- Chromotherapy. The colors of the fourth chakra are, above all, pink and green.

So we propose an exercise: get a sheet or cardboard that is one of those two colors, observe it for four
minutes and pay attention to what you feel: sensations, memories, feelings , Write it in your notebook so
you can later reflect on it .

If you already meditate regularly you will have noticed great changes; And there really is no better way
than to meditate to listen to your inner voice, know what your body needs, and relax your mind and body
from the noise of everyday life.

And for this, our free lessons are ideal: not only to learn to meditate on Alpha, but because they offer you
interesting and effective exercises that, combined with theory, make your life a much better place. We
encourage you to try them and tell us what you thought about them.

When your heart chakra is open, you flow with love and compassion, forgive quickly and accept and
accept others. A closed heart chakra can lead you to feel sorrow, anger, jealousy, fear of betrayal and
hatred of yourself and others.

Choose the essence of Anahata

Some people choose to live in the world of complaints. In the past, they have been hurt by their parents,
siblings, classmates or lovers. Maybe you have been there too. It is impossible to avoid situations in
which a person can try to hurt you. But you can choose what to do with that damage. Some people may
try to hurt the person who hurt them. However, that is not living from a place in Anahata. The person who
inflicts pain on others comes from a place of fear, ignorance or hatred, which together represent a closed
heart chakra.

When you run into grudges from your past or present, you can choose to feel them fully and let them go,
or hold on to them. By letting them go, you are able to open your heart to new experiences and people
with compassion, love and understanding. Holding on to harm causes you to have negative feelings and
takes you away from opportunities to love and help. To let go, just decide. Your mind and your ego may
tell you otherwise, but it's as easy as choosing to let them go and move on.

Empathy and compassion create openness

It is not easy to walk in someone else's shoes, but it can be useful to foster a sense of empathy. To help
create empathy and compassion, I like to play a game called, "What if ,". When I am facing a person who
has an unpleasant attitude or who has treated me badly in the past, I quickly have my mind go through a
series of "how about .
This method makes you stop thinking about yourself and self-pity and leads you to feel compassion for
the other person.

Now, suppose there is a family member or close friend who only repeats a pattern of inflicting damage
constantly. Even so you can offer love and compassion at a distance or by setting limits. In any case, you
have to know that when someone decides to hurt you, it's almost never about you. It is about them.

The best way to receive love is to give it. The author and lecturer Leo Buscaglia used to teach that we
should give and receive 12 hugs a day for optimal health. So give lots of hugs and kisses. Other ways you
can give love are:

 Smile at the people you see every day, even if you don't feel like smiling. It's contagious.
 Forgive and move on. Life is too short for resentment.
 Try to make positive affirmations and comments to your friends, family and co-workers.
 Try to spend one day a week without criticizing anyone or anything, including yourself.

Take any opportunity to foster love and feelings of love. Love is a currency and, no matter what you give,
it will return to you.

Any yoga pose that opens the chest area will help you balance the heart chakra. Some postures are: the
posture of the camel, the posture of the bow and the posture of the cow face.

The sound of the mantra that corresponds to the fourth chakra is yum. A special mantra to help expand
love and compassion is om mani padme hum. You can repeat this mantra during meditation to have
greater access to these qualities.

The color of this chakra is emerald green and the precious stones associated with the heart are emerald,
malachite, rose quartz and jade.

Fifth chakra or throat chakra (Vishuddha)

Being the first of our spiritual chakras the fifth chakra, also known as throat chakra or Vishuddha, is in
tune with our metaphysical and universal being. Light blue or turquoise blue, and located in the throat, it
is related to the ether element, which composes the previous elements (earth, water, fire and air).
According to yogic science, the ether constitutes the communicating medium of the different levels of
existence, that is to say sound, as well as the voice of the absolute. Vishuddha means in Sanskrit
purification and refers to a clearer look (along with a cleansing of body and soul) that brings us closer to
the truth of our universal being, unconditional happiness and harmony.

The fifth chakra is also associated with the sense of hearing. This explains the importance of learning to
listen to that inner voice that transcends our sense of individuality and shows us our way in life. The fifth
chakra is the energetic center of the expression of our pure being, of the creativity and communication
that arise when we are in contact with the other chakras and the universe.
Vishudda chakra and communication

It is, in addition to the ability to express the spoken word and the other forms of language we have (body,
symbolic, written, artistic), the truth of that word. This chakra allows, together with the fluidity and
naturalness of expression, that we find our most authentic being: our truth. When this happens, we have
more clarity about our path and duty in life (dharma) and clearly perceive an intuitive knowledge that
guides, inspires, calms and connects us with the whole.

In this sense, and unlike the third chakra, this active energy is more connected with transcendence than
with the sense of individuality, also necessary for a healthy ego but belonging to a lower level of
consciousness. Expressiveness is facilitated less as a form of self-affirmation or influence in the
environment, than as a way of letting go of the ego and entering into connection with our universal being.

For this reason, creativity belongs to the fifth chakra, because it implies a high form of consciousness,
where there is a momentary transcendence of the ego and where existence acts through us. The inspiration
that moves us through beauty, fills us with life and moves us to creation, new ideas and companies,
glimpses of different possibilities, the need to express our inner world, to live only in the present, are
related to the awakening of this energy.
The awakening of the fifth chakra

The fifth chakra helps us to have a connection between our physical and metaphysical being. It helps us to
be more aware of ourselves, of the holistic nature of our being, and to observe our mind, emotions, acts,
words and principles of life. This energy center helps us to know each other in such a way that we can
counteract our tendencies, mental, physical or emotional that unbalance us, always in favor of cosmic
consciousness.

This clarity also allows us to be in contact with our own soul (that part of us that is sacred and has a
cosmic knowledge) and in this way we better understand what we want. This ability to perceive lucidly
and without the prejudices, attachments or rejections of the ego (or our personal history), allows us to
look at ourselves, change thinking patterns that distance us from our balance and spiritual fulfillment and
sometimes even question completely the beliefs and value systems that shaped our life and identity.

We begin to live in a more subtle plane, with greater honesty towards ourselves and what we show of
ourselves, permanent attention that anchors us to the present moment and allows us to be rooted but open
to the environment, creation, beauty and wisdom. This level of consciousness that yoga identifies as
higher, leads us to have a more philosophical and spiritual approach to existence.

The fifth chakra implies a purification of our gaze, which often leads us to be critical but without closing:
the originality of our gaze cannot

of leading to a rebellion that becomes a dogma. Precisely, a quality of this energy is the absence of
prejudices, which is why dogmas are a form of stagnation that prevents development.
Throat chakra teaching

Vishuddha chakra is a curious mix between permanent growth and complete confidence in what is and in
the inspiration of the moment, knowing that we are part of an infinite and that we are still imperfect. We
love and accept ourselves as we are and where we are, because from here we can also get in touch and
express our true essence. We are interested in listening, seeing and learning, because we can learn
permanently from all situations, people, forms of knowledge, religions or cultures.

The ability to open ourselves to different worldviews, to have an authentic look and an independent
stance regarding shared beliefs and conventions, and creativity that implies action outside the fears,
thoughts or prejudices of the ego are part of this chakra. Also dancing, music, singing, painting and
writing exercises to bring out creativity are a beautiful way to get in touch with the sacred.
It is considered to be the first of the three spiritual chakras, since it connects us with an aspect of our
divine energy.

The throat chakra is governed by the color blue, especially aquamarine tones, and its element is the ether.

On a physical level, the throat chakra is associated with the thyroid gland, teeth, arms, lungs and
respiratory system in general.
Symptoms of a balanced throat chakra

A person with a healthy and open throat chakra usually manifests in:

 Honesty
 Ability to listen to others
 Verbal ease
 Creativity
 Fidelity with oneself
 Active exploration of the higher purpose
 Ability to transcend reality and interpret situations from a spiritual perspective
 Leadership
 Minimal health problems related to the neck, respiratory system and thyroid gland.

Symptoms of a closed throat chakra

A person with throat chakra problems will state:

 Difficulty expressing yourself verbally

 Probable learning problems
 Tendency to lie and exaggerate
 Fear and anxiety about the purpose of life
 Tendency to judge and discriminate
 Low self-esteem or arrogance
 Tendency to be competitive or dependent
 Recurrent throat and / or ear infections
 Possible complications such as thyroid or throat cancer

How to balance the throat chakra

 Exercise your creativity, whether with poetry, writing or music

 Dance daily
 Sing or even shout — keep your vocal cords active
 Surround yourself in blue
 Strive to listen carefully to someone every day
 Tell the truth
 Rub in the area or put lavender, sandalwood, tangerine and eucalyptus oils in a pebetero
 Use crystals such as sapphire, lapis lazuli, turquoise and blue sodalite.
 Take a discussion class or public speaking
 Create a newspaper where you write descriptively your emotions lived that day
 Practice meditation and visualization with images of blue energy surrounding and flowing
through the neck and throat.
Sixth chakra (Ajna chakra or third eye)

The meaning of the third eye cannot be transmitted entirely, because it is in each one as our universal and
eternal truth, greater than concepts, reason or words. It is the center from where we perceive the
transcendent nature of the world, connecting with the totality of existence. Ajna chakra, the sixth of our
main chakras, means in Sanskrit "center of perception." The third eye also means an awakening to this
mystical reality that allows us to be in tune with a transcendent force and flow with it through
detachment, trust, intuition and contact with the divine. In its highest form this energy leads us to let go of
our ego and to be pure consciousness again.

It is the energy wheel related to reason, with mental and cognitive abilities, with concentration, memory
and intellect. It is from there, too, that we direct our mind towards spirituality and universality. We need a
spiritual training, which begins with the control of the mind to learn to direct it properly towards freedom,
intuition and expansion.

If the fifth chakra is masculine because although it is a level of metaphysical consciousness that connects
us with our collective being, it also leads us to action (such as expression, communication, creation), the
sixth chakra is different. It implies self-observation, permanent attention, depersonalization and holistic
discipline to honor all aspects of our being. However, it also implies fundamentally a consciousness that,
in addition to self-consciousness for spiritual development, also means opening up to a transcendent
reality to which we belong. These qualities are feminine: drop, accept, trust, receive, flow and expand.

This energy wheel brings the holistic perception of being and not dual of reality. We perceive more subtle
planes of existence, which gives us a spiritual vision of what happens in the physical world. The third eye
evokes the Indian philosophical notion according to which the part contains the whole and the whole
contains the part: just as a seed of a plant contains the complete information for its development. It is also
the point where all existence, universal knowledge and sacred laws converge.

Once we have acquired a certain awareness of the responsibility we have over our thoughts (which
mobilize energy, create our emotions, and in turn affect our physical health and our energy field), our
level of well-being from a holistic point of view, In our integral development and spiritual freedom, we
understand how the mind is the most urgent thing to train, because it moves us away or about our human
and spiritual realization. For this reason, too, practices such as meditation are so central to the yogic
tradition.

With the sixth chakra we connect with the wisdom of totality and reach the state of yoga, of union with
the universe, which is our truth. It is from this energy center where we have access to the point of our own
being that is part of the infinite and that takes us to higher levels of consciousness. This spiritual eye
perceives things as they are, without the filters, interpretations or wanderings of the mind and is the point
in our being that has the power to "see" beyond the senses. It is, say, to have the ability to transcend the
individual vision and reach the universal point of view. For this we must learn to perceive the existence of
a superior reality of which we are part and live according to it through inner work, detachment, gratitude,
trust and love.

The sixth chakra represents the development of a consciousness that opens us to a transcendent reality, or
to a universal consciousness. This energy, which belongs to our higher chakras, that is to say those of a
spiritual, collective and subtle nature, implies precisely in the development of a perception that ceases to
be anchored in individual reason. Our mind is not only limited, because it is incapable of seeing a
superior reality, which is the true nature of being. She is also responsible for us living in the illusion of a
body and a mind and in general an individual separated from everything that exists.

Its operation is also related to the alignment with universal wisdom, the faculty of artistic creation, the
development of mental faculties, extraordinary vision of energy bodies, psychic faculties, communication
through dreams, visualizations or the understanding of spiritual signs. . The refinement of these faculties
can also lead to access to a wisdom that goes beyond personal experience and that feeds on a single
source of universal knowledge where all human and transcendent knowledge is.

This is the sixth installment of the chapter s on the harmonization of the seven main chakras, and today
we will see how to harmonize the sixth of them known as Ajan or third eye chakra which is related to the
way we see and perceive life.

The sixth energy center is called Ajna and means center of perception, it is represented by a lotus with
two petals, each on one side, it is located in the eyebrow or what we call as the third eye, its archetypes
are the rationalist and the Psychic and central themes of activation are intuition and wisdom.
The sixth chakra or Ajna is related to the I See and our ability to perceive life.
When Ajna is balanced there is a feeling of being clear about the path of our life and we are more
assertive when it comes to choosing the actions that we must carry out for it. We also reach an authentic
personal and spiritual maturity in which we are more focused and can control the cause of our thoughts to
simply act as “spectators” without clinging to the constant chatter of the mind. In general there is greater
tranquility, peace and confidence in our inner voice.
And what happens when it is unbalanced?

When Ajna is unbalanced there may be a feeling that the thoughts are out of control, there are nightmares,
paranoia and in general the mind is unbalanced, you can also see the imbalance when there is excess of
reason and wanting to explain everything that happens by carrying it All to an excess of thought. In the
physical part there are headaches, tension, stress and anxiety or panic.

ears, neck, brain hemispheres, hypothalamus and trunk of the brain.

Seventh chakra: Sahasrara chakra

It is the force that opens us to enlightenment, for it completes the process of evolution by returning to the
universe the energy that our individual being creates.

In all our higher chakras there is a connection with the universe, we approach wisdom and are in contact
with a sacred order. But the seventh chakra completes the process, because we are no longer just in tune
with the infinite: it leads us back to being one with it. We return to our true essence. The ultimate goal of
the yoga tradition and of all the different spiritual traditions is to reach this level of consciousness. It is
there where the true state of yoga occurs.

Its name in Sanskrit is Sahasrara chakra, which means "thousands of facets", referring to the infinite
nature of this force that opens us to divinity. Its symbol is a lotus petal that symbolizes spirituality and
that comes from the image it produces when it opens.
Element and physical manifestation

The element of Sahasrara chakra is thought and is related to the highest functions of the mind. Our
consciousness dissolves with universal consciousness. It is located in the center of the top of the head and
opens upwards. It is no accident that there are images of Buddha, Critos or saints with a light emanating
from his head, because this light represents spiritual openness.

When the seventh chakra opens we are in a state of harmony, even in the world but without being at the
mercy of the world, no matter what may happen around. We no longer perceive our purpose in this life,
but we are in tune with it permanently. Wisdom guides each of our actions, thoughts and words. We feel
full, expanded and protected because we are a part of something big and perfect. We also live with the
ability to appreciate the beauty of existence and with the confidence that life has a higher order. We
surrender to this divine power and assume its qualities.

Characteristics and spiritual manifestation

This chakra vibrates violet, associated with spirituality and devotion, but is also described with some
golden tones. It is also associated with the color white, which is the sum of all the colors that exist. In the
same way, the seventh chakra is a synthesis of all other chakras. In order for the seventh chakra to open to
transcendence, we need each of the chakras starting with the lower ones, (which shape our individual
being), the heart chakra (which opens us to universality and integrates our material being with the
spiritual one), and our higher chakras (where we begin to have more direct contact with the higher
power).

When there has been a harmonious development of each aspect of our being we can get in touch with our
transcendent being. Only in this way can the seventh chakra open and connect with the infinite.

Like each of our seven main chakras, this constitutes a universal force that permeates us and acts through
us. The previous chakras have acted to give us a vision that together form a balanced human being. Some
of the capabilities that the chakras before the seventh give us, for example, are stability, creative strength,
will, compassion, connection with the inner voice and intuition.
If a development of the seventh chakra has been achieved in an integrated manner and as part of a deep
spiritual work, this is the impulse that leads us to union with the infinite. It implies perseverance and
commitment because our most primary tendency is to live in the lower chakras.

The spiritual is a force that is in everything permanently and that constitutes the essence of everything
that exists. It is the return to our essence. However, we need to work to achieve realization, that is, our
maximum potential at all levels to reach a transcendent level of consciousness. For some traditions this
awakening is spontaneous, because it is as simple as overcoming the mind.

It is simple but it is not easy. Although it is simply about becoming what we already are, disciplines such
as yoga or spiritual traditions such as Buddhism indicate that it implies constancy and commitment. In
other words, they are philosophies and scientific systems, but at the same time disciplines that show us a
path.

This is the seventh and final installment of the chapter s on the harmonization of the seven main chakras,
we will end with Sahasrara which is the chakra of the connection with the divine and that leads us to a
deep understanding of our purpose and relationship with the universe.
Seventh Chakra - Sahasrara

The seventh energy center is called Sahasrara and means multiplied by a thousand, it is represented by a
lotus with a thousand petals, it is located in the crown or upper part of the head, its archetypes are the
guru and the enlightened one and the central themes of activation are Understanding, enlightenment and
liberation.

How to know when the chakra is balanced?

When Sahasrara is balanced there is a feeling of emotional and spiritual balance in which it is understood
that we are part of the Universal whole. Everything flows properly and it is understood that life is
impermanent, that is to say that things come and go but that is no reason for inner peace to be affected,
there is also a deep sense of our spiritual self and we can immediately connect with it and relate from
there with everything around us.
And what happens when it is unbalanced?

When Sahasrara is unbalanced there is difficulty thinking independently, there is an attitude of

dominating and manipulating others so that they accept our ideas so we are not sure of it, just for wanting
to be right. There is also a great disconnection with our inner self and our spiritual self so we feel a
persistent feeling of anguish and wanting to control every single detail that happens in our lives and those
of others, there is no confidence in the Universal processes and this It ends up affecting our energy.

Ideas to balance Sahasrara

 Being in touch with nature, in silence, just contemplating.

 Remain in a comfortable posture for quite some time, being aware of each and every part of the
body and especially of breathing.
 Meditate, pray or do any activity that directly connects with spirituality.
 Use crystals such as amethyst, crystal quartz, fluorite, howlite, labradorite and moonstone.
 Use aromas such as lotus and sandalwood that help harmonize this chakra.
 Periodic fasting (always taking into account the medical recommendations in this regard and
according to your state of health).
 Meditate in silence.
Repeat the statements of this chakra:
 I let my inspiration be projected from within
 I am open to the healing power of the spirit that works in my life
 The divine guides my steps
 I get rid of fear, doubt and pain
 I recognize my own truth
 Exercise the areas of influence of this chakra through Yoga: the entire upper part of the head and
brain

So now you know how to activate and harmonize this chakra I hope you can implement many of these
ideas and do not forget to leave your doubts or contributions in the comment box.

Chakra Meditation

The concept of meditation is well established and has been with humanity for a long time. People
invented different types of meditation over time. One of them is the meditation of the chakras.

With spiritual roots in Hinduism, the meditation of the chakras is a form of meditation aimed at cleaning
and keeping the chakras in balance.

In spiritual teachings, there are seven main chakras throughout the body to the top of the head. (In
spiritual teachings, there are seven main chakras that extend throughout the body, from the beginning of
the spine to the top of the head). Its purpose is to regulate human energy and control the flow of energy
within the body. In doing so, each of these main chakras has a different function.

For example, if your fourth chakra, the so-called heart chakra, is unbalanced due to anger and sadness, it
will be difficult for you to allow love and compassion to enter your life.

In this chapter , we will give you a complete insight on the theme of the chakras meditation. Finally, we
will give you free instructions on how to practice the meditation of the chakras.

What is the chakras meditation

Chakra meditation is a spiritual form of meditation designed to help you open and balance your seven
chakras. These mainly focus on blocked chakras. A well-performed chakra meditation allows you to
consciously clean, open and balance several chakras.

In this chapter , we assume a certain basic understanding of the seven chakras and the concept of
meditation, so you should really take a look at these chapter s before continuing to read here.

A blocked chakra can cause both physical and emotional damage, so you must work on opening it as soon
as you notice it.

However, not only blocked chakras are a problem, but also hyperactive ones. Since each chakra
represents one or more emotional states, hyperactive energy centers are as harmful as the less active ones.
Therefore, you must learn to gain control over your chakras and how to balance them. Chakras meditation
is a great way to do this.

The bright thing about the meditation of the chakras is the fact that it combines the advantages of a
balanced chakra with the advantages of meditation. As you know, many of the advantages of meditation
are scientifically proven, such as (for example, you will find studies on their respective advantages):

 Stress reduction
 Extended self-perception
 Less anxiety
 Greater attention span

Your general self-perception increases through meditation, which also gives you a better perception of
your chakras. This makes it easy for you to work with the respective energy centers because after all, you
can only work on the things you are aware of.

In order to improve the positive effects of chakras meditation, you can also include certain mudras and
mantras.

To summarize in a single sentence the key point of the last chapters: Through the meditation of the
chakras, you can reach a state of equilibrium of the chakras.

The benefits for you and your health vary depending on the chakra you want to balance.

In this link you will find an informative graph that explains the meaning of each chakra.

Root chakra imbalance:

You do not feel safe or secure, especially in terms of your personal finances and you feel that you are
generally off course.

Combining the scientific benefits of meditation:

 Anxiety reduction
 Stress reduction
 Sleep properly

Sacral chakra imbalance:

Your impulse towards lust and desire is not balanced.

Combining the scientific benefits of meditation:

 Increased self-awareness

 A greater willpower

Unbalance of the solar plexus chakra:

You act with obsessive control or you feel insecurity and indecision.
Combining the scientific benefits of meditation:

 Increased self-awareness
 A greater willpower

Heart chakra imbalance:

Your feelings often go to extremes: from self-denial to emotional cold and from sadness to anger.

Combining the scientific benefits of meditation:

 Increased self-awareness
 Greater kindness

You don't feel particularly spiritual, but you would like to have a greater awareness of spirituality.

Crown chakra imbalance:

Balancing the crown chakra is something that very few people can do. It is the highest form of spirituality
in which you feel a stronger connection and have a high degree of wisdom.

Chakras meditation is just one of the many ways to balance your chakras. Other tips include, for example:

 Yoga
 Special oils
 Chakras colors
 Affirmations
 Massages
Whether walking meditation, chakras meditation or guided meditation: Each type of meditation has a
unique power and helps you individually.

Chakras meditation is a very individual and advanced form of meditation. This means that you will do a
specific meditation of the chakras with the right mindset, knowing that you only want to balance your
chakras.

Therefore, the two possible Chakras Meditation techniques are:

Meditation of the chakras with a focus on a specific chakra
Meditation of the chakras for several chakras or even for the seven chakras

To obtain a successful result, the next step is to answer the following questions:

 Do you want to balance a very active or blocked chakra or do you want to keep a balanced
chakra?
 Do you want to focus on one or more chakras?
 Where would you like to meditate?
 Would you like to combine the meditation of the chakras with another type of meditation? For
example, you can do walking meditation, yoga meditation or guided meditation and concentrate
on your chakras. In this way, from almost all types of meditation you can do a chakras
meditation.

Once you have decided on this, you will know what your goals are in the chakras, where you will
meditate and if you will combine the meditation of the chakras with another type of meditation.

Finally, memorize the position of each chakra:

 Root Chakra: at the beginning of the spine

 Sacral chakra: in the navel
 Solar plexus chakra: above the navel
 Heart chakra: in the heart
 Throat chakra: in the throat
 Third eye chakra: in the forehead, between the eyes
 Crown chakra: at the top or slightly above the head

Basics of how to do chakras meditation

No matter for which chakra you want to do a meditation on the chakras, the first steps are always the
same.

 Go to the place where you decided you want to meditate.

 Eliminate distractions.
 Make yourself comfortable sitting or lying down.
 Close your eyes and inhale and exhale slowly through your nose (you can also leave your eyes
open, but for beginners it is particularly easier to meditate with your eyes closed).
 Watch your mind slowly calm down.
 After the first breaths, you start to focus on the chakra you want to balance.
Optional: If you want to cover several chakras in a chakra meditation, repeat step seven as many times
as necessary - one chakra at a time.

It is up to you how much time you want to devote to this. You can use a clock alarm. We recommend a
duration of 5 to 20 minutes. At the beginning less is more, especially if you are in the phase of developing
your meditation routine. Just try what works best for you.

How to do chakras meditation: balance and healing

Now that we have taught you how to prepare and perform the chakras meditation at a more general level,
let's talk about how to do the chakra meditation.
Pay close attention to the beginning of your spine.

Imagine inhaling and exhaling through your chakra. The air passes through the beginning of your spine
when you inhale, and through the nose when you exhale. With each breath you feel the energy in the first
chakra and how it becomes brighter and stronger. Imagine it as a ball, a red fireball. Feel this red fireball
throwing you to the ground. Feel the connection to the earth and the security it gives you.

Observe how you feel physically, emotionally and spiritually and what you experience.
Sacral Chakra Meditation

Pay close attention to the area around your belly button.

Imagine inhaling and exhaling through your chakra. The air rises to the navel when you inhale and to the
nose when you exhale. Feel how it radiates from your belly button, from the inside to the outside and into
your surroundings. Notice how gradually you feel more sexually balanced.

Observe how you feel physically, emotionally and mentally and what you experience.
Meditation of the solar plexus chakra

Pay close attention to the area between your belly button and your heart.

Now inhale and exhale through your third chakra. The air passes over the navel when you inhale and
through the nose when you exhale. Visualize a golden yellow ball, which becomes brighter and stronger
with each breath. Focus your awareness on this ball and feel how the energy radiates stronger and
stronger and becomes brighter. Feel your determination.

Observe how you feel physically, emotionally and mentally and what you experience.
Heart chakra meditation

Pay close attention to your heart. If you wish, during meditation, place your hands on top of each
other over your heart for a stronger connection with your heart chakra.

Imagine inhaling and exhaling through the heart chakra. The air goes down to your heart chakra when
you inhale, and through your nose when exhaling. Visualize the energy. Enter this ball fully on a spiritual
level. Watch the love that radiates and feel how your feelings become more balanced.

Observe how you feel physically, emotionally and mentally and what you experience.
Throat chakra meditation

Pay close attention to your throat.

Imagine inhaling and exhaling through the throat chakra. Visualize your throat chakra like a ball of blue
light. With each breath, it becomes stronger and brighter. Focus so much on this ball until you feel as if
you are becoming it. Feel how you give yourself confidence, freedom and empathy with other people.

Observe how you feel physically, emotionally and mentally and what you experience.
Meditation of the third eye chakra

Pay close attention to the point between your eyes on your forehead.
Imagine inhaling through the "third eye." Visualize with each exhalation the energy in the third eye and
how it gets stronger. Imagine the forehead chakra as an indigo colored ball of light. With each breath, it
becomes stronger and brighter. Try to reach a higher level of self-perception. Feel how your
consciousness radiates throughout the place.

Observe how you feel physically, emotionally and mentally and what you experience.
Before attempting a meditation of the crown chakras, remember that an active crown chakra can only be
achieved if your other six chakras are balanced.

Respecting the 12 karmic laws can support this.

Now focus all your attention on the top of the head, even a little above the head. Focus on the feeling of a
godly connection. During meditation, imagine a bright, golden or silver light that appears slightly above
your head. This light is what connects you with yourself, with the world and with your mind. Dedicate
yourself with all your energy to spirituality and wisdom.

Observe how you feel physically, emotionally and mentally and what you experience.

Conclusion

Chakra meditation is a way to activate the seven chakras through meditation.

This method is very effective thanks to its combination with meditation. Meditation offers dozens of
scientifically proven benefits. Some of them, better self-perception and stress reduction, are directly
related to the symptoms of unbalanced chakras.

You can specifically identify one or more unbalanced or even balanced chakras and perform a specific
meditation with the focus on these chakras.

This makes the meditation of the chakras one of the best alternatives, or perhaps even the best alternative
to balance your chakras.
 CHAPTER TWO

BREATHING AND MEDITATION TECHNIQUES

Whether we want to help reduce our stress level, or if we just want to relax, we can perform a series of
breathing exercises at home that help us achieve it. We can choose the one that suits us, or we find it most
comfortable, or combine several breathing techniques in one batch.

Breathing is a natural thing we all do every day without hardly realizing it. But have you ever stopped to
think how your breathing rhythm affects your body and your mind?

When you feel nervous or angry, your body's natural reaction is to fight or escape from that situation, but
don't think about relaxing and breathing.

Human beings respond to stress in very different ways; Some pay it screaming and even getting violent
with the people around.

Others are given to sleep for hours and hours, for self-medicating with painkillers, or worse: using alcohol
and drugs, something that only harms even more the state in which it is.

But to really reduce stress, your body must be in a state of true relaxation in which your blood pressure is
low, and your heart beats at a normal rate.

However, we cannot always make this happen.

Who has not had a heart run at 100 kilometers per hour before doing an important job interview? Or who
hasn't felt their hands and legs shake before starting an exam?
There are many situations in life that can make us nervous, even those that do not seem to affect other
people at all.

But the important thing is not how you feel in those moments, but how you react to them.

If you start to get carried away by the thoughts that whip your head and the sensations you feel in your
body, you will only increase your anxiety and lose control.

5 breathing exercises to calm your anxiety and make influence absolute relaxation.

1. Equal breathing

Even if you don't realize it, for most of the day your breaths are not the same; maybe you inhale air very
fast and release it much more slowly, or vice versa.

And this unequal rhythm all it achieves is that your body enters the air irregularly, and that nerves and
tensions accumulate in it.

That's why equal breathing is a great way to reduce stress quickly, and make you return to a more relaxed
and natural state.

This is a very basic breathing method that anyone can do, and that will relax your body and make your
mind focus on what you are doing.

How to perform this breathing exercise?

You can do this exercise wherever and whenever you want: in a situation where you start to get nervous,
at any time of the day and place where you feel like it, before going to sleep lying in your bed ,

Ideally, do it sitting or lying on some surface to make it more effective.

So if you are on the street or somewhere away from home, and notice how your nerves begin to appear,
look for a place to sit and start practicing it.

Close your eyes, and for a few seconds observe your breathing without intervening in it.

When you are ready, inhale air deeply and slowly counting to four mentally, hold the air for a couple of
seconds, and then release it by mouth or nose slowly counting again up to four in your mind.

Keep repeating these breaths until you feel calmer.

What is this exercise for?

This is a basic way to relax when you feel that your nerves are beginning to surface or your level of
anxiety is not very high, as it will help you calm your body and free yourself from the thoughts that are
making you nervous.
Once you have stabilized your breathing rate, you can increase the duration of your inhalations and
exhalations by counting for example up to six or up to eight.

Anyone can perform this breathing exercise since there are no contraindications and it is completely safe.

2. Abdominal breathing

Abdominal breathing is one of the best exercises that exist to reduce anxiety, and it concentrates on
breathing with the diaphragm (the muscle that makes the lungs work).

This allows the whole body to concentrate on relaxing, and it is scientifically proven that this increases
the amount of oxygen that we introduce into the brain, and causes a greater state of calm.

How to perform this breathing exercise?

Place one of your hands on your chest, and the other on your stomach.

When you start breathing, inhale air slowly by swelling your stomach upwards, take a short pause, and
when you exhale, slowly release the air through your mouth, feeling how your stomach will gradually
drop.

When you introduce air into your body, you will notice how your hand in the stomach will rise, and when
you expel.

To make this breathing exercise even more effective, count to four mentally when you inhale, and count
to eight mentally when you exhale.

In a stressful situation, you should keep repeating it until you calm down completely.

But if you want to do this exercise every day to prevent anxiety, be sure to do it for at least five minutes
in the morning and at night.

What is this exercise for?

This is a very powerful breathing exercise with which you will be able to lower your anxiety quickly and
easily. You can do it in situations with very high stress levels, and it is very useful in panic attacks.

But you can also do it when you are calm to keep you all day in a state of relaxation without nerves.

I usually practice this exercise every day, and I do it at night until I fall asleep, and also in the morning
before starting my routine if I feel that it will be a day with a situation that will make me nervous.

Anyone can perform this breathing exercise since there are no contraindications and it is completely safe.
But if you feel that you start to get dizzy when doing so, stop and breathe normally.

3. "Fire" breaths
Fire breaths are called that because they are a breathing technique that is used when practicing Kundalini
Yoga, and it has been scientifically proven that they have many advantages for the body and mind.

It is used to be calmer, but also with this practice we can increase our energy levels and feel happier and
motivated.

How to perform this breathing exercise?

For this exercise it is better that you are sitting, with your back straight, and your shoulders relaxed. Take
a few normal deep breaths before starting.

When you are ready, slowly begin to inhale air through your nose so that your stomach swells, and
quickly release that air through your nose while contracting your stomach inwards.

Gradually, go making these breaths faster, always with your mouth closed and taking a breath and
expelling it only through your nose.

At first, take these breaths in a row for up to 30 seconds. When you arrive at that time, stop a little to rest,
and then continue another 30 seconds more if you want.

When you have become accustomed to breathing like this, you can increase the time to one minute until
you do it for a maximum of three minutes each time before stopping to rest.

What is this exercise for?

This type of breathing serves to expel the nerves that we have accumulated, calm down, and to eliminate
from our mind the fears, worries and sorrows that are around our minds.

But it also has enormous medical benefits such as:

 Stabilize and strengthen the nervous system
 Purify the blood and body cells
 Expel toxins from the lungs
 Improve breathing in people with lung diseases such as asthma
 Help the heart function better
 Increase lung capacity and physical endurance
 Increase energy and joy inside us

However, you should not do this exercise if you have high blood pressure or abdominal problems. In
these cases it is better that you first consult your doctor to see if you can do it.

4. Breathing 4 - 7 - 8

Breathing 4 - 7 - 8 is a very popular type of breathing especially to be able to fall asleep at night, and
remove worries from our minds.

How to perform this breathing exercise?

This breathing is very similar to abdominal breathing, and consists of inhaling air through the nose
counting to four mentally, retaining the air counting to seven, and expelling it through the mouth counting
up to eight.

You should practice this exercise sitting or lying down (in bed at night it is ideal to fall asleep), and with
your eyes closed, thinking only of the numbers you are counting in your head.
Thus you will relax your whole body, and you will enter a state of peace and tranquility that will calm
you completely.

What is this exercise for?

As I told you before, this exercise is great not only to calm your nerves during the day in stressful
situations, but also to get you to sleep faster at night.

Anyone can perform this breathing exercise since there are no contraindications and it is completely safe.

5. Alternate nasal breathing

This breathing exercise is somewhat more advanced than the others, but once you catch the trick, you will
see that it is simpler than it seems.

It is also a type of technique that is used in yoga to relax the mind by joining the two hemispheres of our
brain.

In addition, you will lose weight when you practice it!

Cortisol is a hormone that is released when you're stressed, and increases blood sugar levels, which
causes weight gain.

And alternate nasal breathing is one of the best breathing exercises to reduce this substance in your body.

How to perform this breathing exercise?

Here it is about breathing through the two nostrils alternately.

Did you know that we usually only breathe through one of our nostrils for several hours without even
noticing?

And that this also causes our vitality to decrease and increase stress?

To remedy this, start this exercise sitting, and pressing your right nostril with your thumb, and inhaling air
through your left fossa.

Hold the air, cover your left nostril with your middle finger, and release the air through your right nostril.
While covering your left nostril, take a breath through your right nostril, hold it, cover your right nostril,
and expel the air from the left.

To better understand this explanation, watch the video that I leave here below where you have a complete
round of this type of breathing.
What is this exercise for?

This practice is great for reducing anxiety and having a clearer and more balanced mind in the face of the
problems of our lives.

But on top of that, it has many medical benefits such as:

 Improve circulation and respiratory problems

 Prevent allergies and colds
 It helps to harmonize and balance the left hemisphere of the brain (the one that controls the logic)
with the right hemisphere (which controls the emotions)
 Maintains and regulates the body's natural temperature
Anyone can perform this breathing exercise since there are no contraindications and it is completely safe.
You can work breaths that last up to 10 counts.

6. Progressive muscle relaxation

In this technique, you inhale while tensing a muscle group and exhale as you release it. Progressive
muscle relaxation helps you to relax physically and mentally.

Lie comfortably on the floor. Take a few deep breaths to relax.

Inhale. Tighten your foot muscles. Exhale. Release the tension from your feet.
Inhale. Tighten the calf muscles. Exhale. Release the tension in your calves.

Make your way through your body. Tighten each muscle group. This includes your legs, belly, chest,
fingers, arms, shoulders, neck, and face.

7. Lion's breath

While doing this exercise, imagine that you are a lion. Let all your breath come out with your mouth wide
open.

Inhale through the nose. Fill your belly to the top with air. When you can no longer breathe, open your
mouth as wide as you can. Exhale with an "Ahh" sound. Repeat several times.

All these breathing exercises are excellent to calm your body and relax your mind. But for their effects to
be greater, make sure you are constant and do them every day at least once if you want to live a quiet and
calm life.

breathing techniques for relaxing.

Before we begin, we must find a comfortable and as relaxing as possible in our home. To get into that
state of calm, we can lower the lights, use a relaxing music, a comfortable mat and a small head cushion.
In addition, to help us obtain a more complete breath, we can perform a nasal wash with sea water, just
before starting, so as to have the nostrils as decongested as possible.

Diaphragmatic or abdominal breathing

As the name implies, this technique directly involves our diaphragm, the muscle that separates the rib
cage from the belly, and is very useful for combating symptoms such as anxiety. To see if we are doing it
correctly it is best to place one hand on the chest and the other on the belly and observe which one rises
when we breathe. If it is the latter in which the movement occurs we will be correct.

The technique: take a deep breath through your nose, while watching how the hand placed on the belly is
raised. Take a short break and slowly release the air through your mouth. Repeat this sequence for at least
10 minutes.

Alternate breathing
This technique consists of inhaling alternating each of our nostrils. It is a simple breath and its realization
can induce us to a state of calm and relaxation that is very beneficial for our body and our mind.

The technique: In a meditation posture, cover the right nostril with your right thumb and inhale slowly
and deeply. To release the air, cover the left nostril and expel it through the right nostril. Repeat the same
mechanism in reverse.

Full breath
It is done in three phases of inspiration and three of expulsion and can be done both sitting, lying and
standing. It is a technique that can bring us multiple benefits, such as expanding our thoracic capacity,
training our self-control and inducing us into a state of serenity and concentration.

The technique: Place your hands as in abdominal breathing. Breathe slowly through the nose, bring the
air to the abdomen, then to the area of the ribs trying to expand them and finally to the clavicle. Hold the
air for a few seconds. The expulsion begins in the opposite direction. First clavicle, then the ribs and
finally the abdominal area until running out of air. Do several repetitions.

For many of us, relaxation means lying on the sofa and watching TV after a stressful day. However, this
does not help us alleviate and reduce the damaging effects of stress. To combat it efficiently, we need to
activate the body's natural relaxation response.

To achieve this, we must practice relaxation techniques, such as diaphragmatic breathing, meditation,
rhythmic exercise and yoga. Including these activities in our day to day can help us reduce daily stress,
increase our energy and mood and improve our mental and physical health.

When stress overwhelms our nervous system, our bodies are filled with chemicals that prepare it to "fight
or flight." This stress response can save lives in emergency situations where we must act quickly. But
when it is constantly activated by the anxiety of everyday life, it can drain our body and affect our
emotional and physical health.

No one can avoid stress, but we can counteract its detrimental effects by learning how to elicit the
relaxation response, which is a state of deep rest. This helps us to stop stress and brings our body and
mind to a state of balance.

When we manage to activate it, our body responds as follows:

 The heart rate slows down.

 Breathing becomes slower and deeper.

  Blood pressure drops or stabilizes.

 The muscles relax.

 Increases blood flow in the brain.

The most important thing to remember is that simply lying on the couch, reading or watching television is
not enough to produce the physical and psychological benefits of the relaxation response. For that, we
need to actively practice a relaxation technique.
What is the best relaxation technique for me?

There is no one relaxation technique that is ideal for everyone. The practice that will work best for us is
one that fits our lifestyle and can focus our minds and interrupt our everyday thoughts to elicit the
relaxation response.

We can also experience that alternating or combining different techniques gives us the best results.

How we tend to react to stressful situations can also influence the relaxation technique that works best for
us.

For example, we can adopt a "fight" response. If we tend to get angry, agitated, or squat under pressure,
we will respond better to calming relaxation activities, such as meditation, progressive muscle relaxation,
diaphragmatic breathing, or guided imagery.

If, on the other hand, our response is “flight” and we tend to get depressed, withdraw or move away under
stress, we will respond better to activities that stimulate and energize our nervous system, such as
rhythmic exercise, massage, mindfulness or yoga. .

Another way to deal with situations that cause us anxiety is through the immobilization response. If we
have experienced some kind of trauma and tend to "freeze" or "get stuck" under stress, our challenge is to
encourage our nervous system to a fight-or-flight response, discussed earlier, so that we can employ
relaxation techniques. For them, we must choose a physical activity that involves the movements of our
arms and legs, such as running, dancing or tai chi, and consciously perform these exercises, concentrating
on the sensations of our limbs as we move.
Breathing exercises and relaxation techniques.

Diaphragmatic breathing benefits

Diaphragmatic breathing is also known as deep breathing, abdominal breathing, and fast breathing. When
we breathe deeply, the air that enters through the nose completely fills our lungs and the lower abdomen
rises.

For many of us, deep breathing seems unnatural. There are many reasons for this. On the one hand, body
image has a negative impact on breathing in our culture. A flat stomach is considered attractive, which is
why women (and men) tend to contract their stomach muscles. This interferes with deep breathing and
gradually makes shallow "chest breathing" appear normal, increasing tension and anxiety.
Shallow breathing limits the range of motion of the diaphragm. The lower part of the lungs does not
receive a full amount of oxygenated air. This can leave us feeling out of breath and feeling anxious.

Deep abdominal breathing encourages total oxygen exchange, that is, it makes a beneficial exchange of
incoming oxygen for outgoing carbon dioxide. Not surprisingly, it can lower your heart rate and stabilize
blood pressure.

Creating a breathing exercise routine

We may want to try several different relaxation techniques to see which one works best. Also, if the
practice we have used does not get us involved, or if we simply want to experience a certain variety, there
are various alternatives and exercises to practice. In this way we will be able to feel more motivated to
create our routine.

It is also important to take into account a series of tips to introduce this practice in our day to day. Some
of them are:

 Choose a special place where we can sit or lie down comfortably and quietly.

 We should not push ourselves too hard. This can cause tension.

 We should not be too passive, either. The key to getting the relaxation response is to shift our
focus from stressors to deeper, calmer rhythms. For this to have a focal point is essential.

 Try to practice once or twice a day, always at the same time of day, to incorporate the sense of
ritual and establish a habit.

 We should try to practice at least 10-20 minutes every day.

 CHAPTER THREE

PREPARING TO OPEN THE THIRD EYE

To open the Third Eye, first the channel has to be opened by external force or through its own cultivation.
The shape of the channel varies from person to person. It can be oval, round, rhomboidal or triangular.
The better one is cultivated, the more round its shape will be. Second, the Third Eye is given by one's
teacher or is cultivated through his own effort.

Mental Technique

 Sit in front of a white wall or cloth, it is important that you have no spots or wrinkles.
 The distance between you and the wall or the fabric should be approximately two meters.
 The eyes, rather, the look, must be out of focus, This is an important detail.
 It may be true, but do not worry if at first you do not succeed, keep practicing, because as in
every exercise is essential. Many, however, long periods of practice have failed to "keep a clear
mind" in an absolute manner, but this does not prevent the goal from being achieved.
 After 3 minutes you begin to feel tingling in the eyebrows and then images appear on the wall or
fabric. These images can be landscapes, letters or anything. After a month of daily practice you
can see especially see at night things that were not noticeable before .
It consists of staying blindfolded in a luminous place, trying to concentrate the energy in the eyebrows,
until perceiving the images. This exercise is more complicated than the "Velo" practice, it requires more
training and concentration and, therefore, for those who begin in the development of their third eye it is
more advisable to go to the technique

Anyway, both light exercises are very useful to improve pineal functioning: allowing gradually learn to
see in the dark, improving one's intuition and helping those who practice them to distinguish the aura (a
luminous irradiation and colorful surrounding all living things).

Tips to practice the technique "I see" or "Veil"

 Choose a quiet place that can get completely dark.

 Turn off the light and stay in the dark watching the colorful object for 10 minutes.
 During this period, try to stay very focused. To achieve this, breathe slowly and deeply, trying not
to think about any matter that could distract you from your practice.

Repeat daily, for a week, the practice Velo. Try to be attentive to the new details that you discover every
day in the aforementioned object, since despite the darkness your pineal gland will be sharpened until it
allows you to distinguish the details of shape and tones.

Seek the collaboration of someone to apply the velo exercise in the visualization of the aura. for a week,
as he did with the flowers, observe his partner in the dark, trying to concentrate mostly on his head and
hands.

If you manage to open the energy channels of your pineal gland you will notice irradiations in the head
and hands of your companion (it will make you feel that these members are lengthening) despite the lack
of light in the room. If, in addition to the contour of these members, you can distinguish shades of color, it
will be synonymous that your third eye is beginning to wake up.

Once you have acquired this pineal ability, get a quartz crystal and repeat the exercises holding this stone
on your eyebrows. In this way you will enhance the energy capacity of your sixth chakra and perhaps - if
you are a person who manages to connect with your intuitive part - you can not only see the aura but also
anticipate future events every time you make the experience.

Athena Academy Exercise

 Sit in meditation position

 Close your eyes and place the index and middle fingers of your dominant hand (with which I
write) on the forehead, exactly between the eyebrows.
 Open your eyes and blink about four or five times.
 Close your eyes, but always keep your fingers in your eyebrows.
 Visualize your third eye, imagining that it is in your eyebrows, where your fingers are.
 Open your eyes and blink again, but this time you visualize the third eye and also blinks it.
 Repeat the exercise until you can feel your third eye.
 Remove the fingers from the forehead, take a normal position and now visualize the third eye
open.
 Then look anywhere, you will slowly feel something that is between your eyes.
 In case you have a headache after this exercise, consider it normal. As you do the exercises you
will be able to see silhouettes in the contour of things, in a misty manner, that is what is known as
 the etheric body. Gradually that mist will disappear and you will see colors, in general the most
dominant.
Attention. This exercise in some cases, in addition to causing headache can cause dizziness and even
fainting, this due to the sudden form as a wide variety of colors and even phenomena that may appear.
Gradually as you do the exercises you will lose the initial fear that the experience may have caused you.
The important thing is the practice.
The important thing is that as you practice this technique there will come a time when you will not need
the technique and it may be possible to see the energies enough that you want it.
With greater practice and over time you will be able to see energy power levels.

Elemental Technique

The most appropriate technique to stimulate the third eye is as follows:

 With the light off, sit comfortably and with your legs crossed if possible on the floor or on a
carpet.
 Breathe deeply, bringing air to the abdomen.
 When you feel that your breathing has stabilized and you feel a pleasant sensation of inner
serenity, focus on your eyebrows and slightly open your eyes.
 Now take your look to this point between both eyebrows, since this is the natural seat of the third
eye. All your attention should remain there, observing this energy center in the middle of the
darkness (if you prefer you can do it with your eyes closed).
 In this same sector, imagine a point of intense blue, which you will continue to look at.
 Now start working with a mantra. Trying to get the air out of the stomach, pronounce the EN
sound nine times and the IN sound nine times.
 Ideally, repeat this exercise three times a day, for six months. Although, if the practice is done on
a regular basis, it can be done less frequently.

Other Secrets To Activate Your Third Eye

The third eye is the gateway to psychic ability.

This eye has a tangible component in the shape of the pineal gland, which is an important part of the
entire endocrine system.. It is small but powerful.

It is only the size of a green pea, but the pineal gland regulates sleep and wakefulness cycles.

In most people, the third eye is latent, since we don't usually use it. In keeping with the concept of "using
it or losing it," the third eye will not be active and strong unless it was used regularly, just like any other
muscle or system in our body.

If you have been asleep for a long time, there are steps that must be taken in order to wake up first, and
then strengthen this latent ability.

Easy-to-practice activities can revive this power of "seeing beyond." No expensive equipment, classes or
workshops are needed to activate the third eye in the psychic system in the way it was meant to be. Even
very busy people can spend a little time each day to make some of this easy but effective practice. You
only have to spend twenty minutes per day to activate this important gateway to the invisible.
yoga
Yoga has been practiced for thousands of years and was originally intended as a purely spiritual activity.
Today, there are many who still see it as such, but it is also a very popular way of exercising and is
offered in gyms and classes routinely.

Consider recovering yoga as a personal journey by harnessing its power to open the third eye. Yoga
balances the body and gently massage the internal organs.

When you are in balance, all systems are relaxed and begin to function in optimal conditions. While this
occurs, latent powers are free to wake up because less energy is spent on "keeping things running." As
operations become more automated, an amount of greater energy flows to inactive systems and allows
them to activate.

Think of a car. When everything in the car has been optimized, all systems work correctly. If something
has been misaligned, such as a power line, then many things can stop working. You fix the car, and
everything works again.

Meditation

Meditation is a very active way to take advantage of the third eye. Through meditation, the direct focus is
placed on the eye and specific signals are sent to activate it.

We propose a good meditation to start:

Start with your eyes closed, and releasing any tension in the body. Take ten deep breaths, holding the air
every five seconds. This reduces the heart rate and aligns the glands for a state of relaxation.

A small staircase appears in the middle, and consciousness begins to ascend as the healing light and you
follow it. Going up slowly, you continue to breathe in a relaxed manner, filling your lungs to normal
capacity, but not to overexertion.

Take note of all internal systems. When the heart is reached, the light surrounds it, it strengthens. As the
light and conscious mind continue their journey through the throat and head, the breath must be totally
relaxed, slow and regular.

Now visualize the third eye Is closed. Light and conscience stand before him and greet him. Try saying
"This is where my conscious and unconscious mind meet." As that phrase is repeated, you imagine the
opening of the third eye little by little, until you are fully awake.

Sit in this moment the time you need to feel that the conscious and unconscious mind is integrated.
Gradually open the physical eyes, sure in the verification that the third eye is activated.
 CHAPTER FOUR

TECHNIQUES TO ACTIVATE THE THIRD EYE (AJNA CHAKRA)

People often believe that meditation is not for them, that it is only a resource used by those who seek
spiritual or religious fulfillment, that it is about things of monks and Buddhists. However, nothing is
further from reality: in conjunction with the chaotic world in which we live, the level of concentration,
creative thinking, happiness and even health are at constant risk. Many have found in meditation a key
that helps us cope with the pressures and have a better life.
There are several kinds of meditation and grace is finding the one that works best for you. Today we will
see.
The Third Eye means an enlightened state of consciousness in which the world can be observed in a way
we say almost paranormal; it gives you greater control over your mind and emotions and a deeper sense
of intuition according to the things around you. The Third Eye meditation revolves around the six
Chakras of consciousness, this meditation will help you see things with more objectivity, feel free of
attachments and full of energy.
Meditation Technique

Let's learn below the procedure to carry out the practice of Third Eye meditation correctly:

1. Choose a quiet place without noise.

2. Sit comfortably on the floor with your legs crossed and your back straight.
3. Close your eyes
4. Relax the body and unleash the tensions.
5. Concentrate on each part of the body, let the tension go, breathe deeply.
6. Focus on your breath. Feel how with each inhalation you feel lighter and while exhaling feel how your
body lets go of all the accumulated stress.
7. Now focus on the point of the forehead between your eyes.
8. Imagine a triangle of golden reflections making its way to your mind
9. Then imagine that you can see the inside of your head and see all your thoughts, experiences and
problems.
10.Feel the bright light fill every corner of your mind
11. Feel in turn how all your negative thoughts and experiences come out of your mind through the
window you have opened for them.
12. Do not forget to breathe
13. When you are satisfied, with your clean mind, you can close the window.

We all know how important is the activation of Ajna chakra or Third Eye how it is also known. The third
eye is also responsible for the conscious perception of the surrounding reality, of all mental abilities, the
learning process, memory and willpower.

Another very important skill of an active third eye chakra is to listen to our intuition and follow its
"voice."
Techniques to activate Ajna Chakra:

Ajna chakra or third eye, is located in the center of your forehead. It is the center of cosmic consciousness
and intuition. This chakra controls and energizes the pineal gland and the nervous system. It also gives
you the ability to see things as they really are through inner vision and wisdom. Therefore, people often
call it "The third eye."

Technique 1 - Color therapy:

The color of Ajna chakra is indigo. That is why you can use this color as a tool for activating your third
eye chakra.

Include indigo color in your meditation and in your daily life. Add indigo clothing to your closet, wear
indigo jewelry. Simply visualize this color in your third eye chakra during your meditations and every
time you go to bed. Do not forget to strive to maintain balance, but do not overdo it.

Technique 2 - Mantra therapy:

Mantras are a good way to reinforce your aspirations. They are simple and help focus on what is most
important. The mantra for the third eye is "OM." By singing this syllable, you are activating your intuition
and connecting with Higher Wisdom.

Technique 3 - Kundalini Yoga:

Regular Kundalini Yoga practices will help you activate your Ajna chakra.

Technique 4 - Affirmations:

For the activation of the third eye chakra, you must reconnect with your Higher Self, intuition and inner
wisdom. To do this, it can be very useful for you to practice affirmations.

Examples of statements you can use to activate your Ajna chakra:

• I trust myself and my intuition.

• I have a well developed intuition and great intelligence.
• I am a wise person, I have a well developed philosophical way of thinking.
Technique 5 - Healing with music:

It is not a secret that music has great spiritual power. Including music in your meditations, you will
improve its positive effect. You can also use binaural rhythms for the activation of Ajna chakra and
include them in your meditations.

Technique 6 - Ritual baths for the activation of the third eye:

Ritual baths are not only a very effective way, but probably one of the most pleasant to activate your third
eye chakra. Here are the characteristics of Ajna chakra and all the details of this magical ritual bath.

Ajna Chakra Features:

The intention in balancing the Ajna chakra would be: I free myself from the need to affirm myself at the
expense of others. I refuse to be guided purely by logic .
Affirmation: I trust myself and my intuition. I have a well developed intuition and great intelligence. I am
a wise person, I have a well developed philosophical thought .
 Mantra: OM.
 Color: indigo or white.
 Aromatic oils for ritual baths: incense, basil.
 Stones: moonstone, sodalite, lapis lazuli.
 Herbs: lemongrass, jasmine.

Ritual baths to balance the Ajna chakra

 Choose all the necessary materials for the ritual.

 Chakra associated crystals that you want to balance
 Sea salt
 Aromatic Oils
 Herbs infusion
 Candle of the color of the chakra to be balanced

Steps to follow to perform the ritual bath:

1. The glasses should be placed in the bathtub before beginning to fill it with water. If the crystals are too
small, place them in a cloth bag and then to the bathtub.

2. Prepare the salt aroma mixture: drip 2-4 drops of aromatic oil over the sea salt (4 tablespoons).

3. Fill the bathtub with water. The mixture of sea salt and aromatic oil should be added only when the
bathtub is filled with a gua. Also, add an infusion of herbs.

4. Light a candle (which matches the color of the chakra you are going to balance) and read your intention
3 times.

5. Now you can take your bath. While in the water, read the affirmations and the mantra of the
corresponding chakra, while concentrating on the chakra. This is how you program the water in which
you are sitting and create a healing effect.
Technique 7 - Meditation:

There are many different meditations for the activation of the third eye chakra that you can use. Let me
share one of them with you.

Balancing Ajna chakra through meditation

Take a comfortable position, start focusing on the area where the third eye chakra is located. It is
important on a physical level to feel the increase in pressure in this area. When the pressure increases, it
visualizes how the energy penetrates deeply into the head.

Look closely at how the two streams of energy meet and merge, becoming one. Then he begins to say (or
sing) the mantra OM. Pay more attention to your inner feelings. With the help of such meditation, you can
activate your third eye chakra and clear it of unnecessary energy blockages.

Technique 8 - Aromatherapy:

There is a great form of aromatherapy to activate the third eye. To do this, you must take eucalyptus
essential oil and rub it on the forehead area.
Technique 9 - Candle exercise:

The essence of this method is as follows: you must take a normal candle, light it and place it in front of
you with your arm extended.

Then, for a minute, you should look at the fire in the candle, trying not to blink and not look the other
way. After that, close your eyes and try to visualize the glow of the candle in the same place where your
third eye is.

Balancing Ajna chakra with candle flame display

With each new day, the duration of the contemplation of the candle flame increases by one minute.
Therefore, by the end of the month, the exercise should take at least half an hour.

If you do everything correctly, then every day it will be easier to perform this exercise, you can maintain
the brightness without much effort.

Technique 10 - Energy exercise:

Focus on your third eye chakra. Imagine there is a vortex of bright blue energy. It has the shape of a ball
and rotates clockwise, while you accumulate the same bright blue energy of your thinking. Ajna chakra
absorbs this energy from the mind and illuminates your head with a cold blue light. Your brain cells are
full of power, nourished and purified, and you feel that the tension moves away from your vessels and
capillaries. You feel how your thinking speed, memory and other functions of your brain are improving.

By performing such an exercise for 10-15 minutes, you can fill your chakra with energy, as well as
improve the efficiency of your brain.

It is important to understand that for the activation of the third eye you do not need to strain with all the
fibers of your soul. Clairvoyance and hearing are given to a person in the name of service to people, and
not as a means to enrich or exalt pride or satisfy the ego. Often through difficult times in their lives,
sometimes through clinical death.

Balancing the third eye through the visualization of energy flow.

Before obtaining psychic abilities, you must be ready.

First, you must have your ego under control, get rid of greed and low motives, develop compassion and
unconditional love.

An active Ajna chakra is not just the ability to visualize the bright colors of the luminous auras of
"enlightened" people. It is also the ability to clearly see all the dirt and pain of the modern world. When
you open your third eye, you will break into your consciousness with all your power, and if you are not
ready to see it, your hypersensitivity will destroy you. Think about what has been said. And then make a
decision if you're ready or not.

12 meditation exercises (practical guide and benefits)

We live in a stressful and competitive world that requires us to be constantly active and prepared to adapt
to the news and changes in the environment.

The lifestyle we lead, both in working and private life, can become frantic and cause us stress, tension and
a feeling of not reaching everything. We need to disconnect from time to time and focus on the important
thing, something for which the realization of meditation and relaxation techniques is helpful.

In order to contribute to personal well-being in this chapter I have selected a dozen very useful
meditation exercises, in addition to indicating some of the benefits of these practices.

Meditation: concept and benefits

The term meditation refers to the focus of attention on a specific element, be it internal as one's own
thought or exterior, in a state of deep concentration and reflection. It is popularly said that in meditation it
is intended to achieve the liberation of the mind from its habitual concerns and the emphasis of the
present. It is usually based on focusing completely on the now focusing on aspects such as breathing,
thinking or consciousness itself.

Meditation serves to help the individual connect with himself, understand himself and grasp his own
potentialities. It also allows us to observe reality more objectively, as well as the values and objectives
that govern us.

The origins of this practice

The practice of meditation is native to India and typical of Buddhist and Hindu beliefs, having become
popular in the West relatively recently. These practices can serve numerous purposes. Originally with
religious or mystical orientation, today meditation has even become part of the repertoire of techniques
used in psychological therapy, especially in the form of Mindfulness.
Mindfulness as a technique is based on focusing on the present moment and what happens without trying
to interpret it, accepting both the positive and the negative, the renunciation of the attempt to control and
the choice of objectives and values to work on.

It has also been shown to help improve mood, fighting mild depression and anxiety, as well as reducing
blood pressure and the possibility of cardiovascular disorders. Finally, it has also proved useful in
improving the quantity and quality of sleep.
A dozen meditation exercises

There is a wide variety of meditation exercises that can be performed. Some of them are performed
statically (this being the best known and traditional type of meditation) while others require movement.

Of the same, some focus more on living the moment while others emphasize the idea of self-evoking
sensations through elements such as visualization. Then we leave you with 12 exercises that you can
comfortably perform in various situations and that will allow you to meditate focusing attention on
various aspects.
1. Empty the mind

It is a meditation focused solely on breathing. With the eyes ajar, the subject focuses on the breathing
itself without trying to control it, focusing on the sensation of the air entering and leaving. The individual
will try to focus solely on it.

Over time, the individual will be able to concentrate on breathing and ignore the rest of the thoughts, so
that he will be able to obtain feelings of calm, tranquility and placidity.
2. Countdown

While this technique may seem very simple, it is very useful for improving concentration. With your eyes
closed and in a relaxing position you proceed to count down slowly, from high numbers (fifty or even one
hundred) to zero. It's about concentrating your mind on a specific element so that the rest of the stimuli
fade away.
3. Body Scan

This technique is based on the detailed review of the different regions of the body, taking into account the
sensations that are perceived in each of them. It is recommended to find a comfortable position that
allows body relaxation, sitting on the floor with a straight back and legs flexed with each foot on the thigh
of the other leg (in what is known as the lotus position). Once in this position you should close your eyes
and leave your mind blank.

In this state, the different muscle groups are going to proceed little by little, paying attention to the
sensations that come from them. It is about concentrating on what the body itself tells us, while we
connect better with it and we observe ourselves accepting the information that comes from it without
judging them. It usually proceeds to go up from the toes to the head.
4. The Mindful Pause
This exercise is based on the concentration in the breath for between fifteen and thirty seconds,
concentrating our attention only in this process. It must be inhaled and exhaled deeply.

Once the attention directed to the breath is concentrated, it will be directed to ask which of the strengths
itself can be applied to the situation that is being lived. In this way we can help each other make decisions
and cope with stressful situations.
5. Observation in dynamic meditation
This exercise is based on the observation and contemplation of what we are able to observe. Once this is
done, you open your eyes and take a brief look at what is happening and what is around us.

You close your eyes again and reflects on what has been seen, what different stimuli we have perceived
around us (for example a dog, a roommate preparing to go to work, an open window through which a
tree…).

Once this is done, we proceed to open our eyes again and make a second more detailed pass about our
surroundings. Again the eyes are closed and a new list of the observed elements is made.

While meditation has traditionally been seen as something to be performed statically, it is possible to
meditate on the move (although it may be more complicated to concentrate).

It is recommended that it be in contact with nature, such as in a field or on the beach. It is about taking
walks while the person focuses on the sensations they are feeling at that moment, such as the heat of the
sun, the breeze, the rubbing of the water if it rains or is near the sea, the salinity of the water or the
rubbing of the plants, the movement of the muscles themselves or the emotions they awaken.
7. Visualization

This exercise is based on the visualization of objectives and their assessment through meditation. With
the closed ones and with the attention placed on the breath, the definition of an objective or goal to be
pursued is proposed.

Next, the subject will gradually ask if he really considers the objective desirable, and then assess whether
reaching him would produce well-being, if the benefits to be achieved exceed the costs and difficulties
and if there are the means to achieve it, finally Rethink again if the goal remains desirable.

If the result is positive, the will and the effort to achieve it will be strengthened while the person feels
their objective as valid, while otherwise the effort can be redirected towards the achievement of new
goals.
8. Meditation with fire

One of the techniques is based on the focus of attention on the candle of a flame, in a comfortable
position while controlling the breath and sensations such as heat and luminosity that it brings.

You can also make a list of positive things to achieve or maintain and negative things to get rid of,
focusing on the negatives and the sensations they cause and giving them to the fire to observe how they
catch on and carbonize and then focus on the positive ones (which are not burned) under cover of heat
and light.
9. Water meditation

This technique is based on the use of water and can be done during the bath in a bathtub or pool. It is
about focusing attention on the relationship of the body itself with the water while we focus on breathing,
noting the sensations it causes and the boundaries between the submerged part of the body and the one
outside.

10. Static meditation: The mind as canvas

The exercise begins by closing the eyes and focusing on the breath, trying to imagine the mind as a blank
canvas. Once this is done, the person must choose some of the spontaneous thoughts or images that arise
and must mentally throw it to that canvas.
From there it will proceed to try to reflect on why that thought has appeared, its origin and its usefulness
and what feelings it causes. Once this is done, the person can try to give life to the image, incorporating
movement mentally and even project himself within it to analyze it.

Although it has been thought of as something to do mentally, since art is an important element that can be
used to reflect, it may be useful that instead of doing it mentally, the subject becomes a graphic
representation on a real canvas. They also serve other forms of art and expression, such as writing,
sculpture or music.
11. Yoga and tai chi

While both are disciplines by themselves with their differential characteristics, both yoga and tai chi can
be used as a form of meditation through the performance of various movements. Visualization is also
important.

.
12. Metta Bhavana meditation

This type of meditation focuses on cultivating love and positive emotions.

First of all the user must sit down and pay attention to the body, relaxing each muscle as well as possible.
Once this is done, the emotional sensations should be focused, focusing attention towards the heart and
trying to discern the emotions that are felt at that moment. It is necessary to accept them whether they are
positive or negative. It is recommended to try to smile while doing in order to observe possible changes in
the felt emotions.

This exercise is carried out thinking first of all in oneself, then in a friend, then in a person that we value
neither good nor bad, then in someone with whom we have conflicts and finally in the whole of living
beings. It is about identifying the sensations and trying to propitiate the good ones, even accepting and not
judging or limiting the bad ones. After that, little by little he returns to the outside world.
 CHAPTER FIVE

THIRD EYE CHAKRAS TO IMPROVE WELLNESS

Do you feel fatigued, stressed, sore? Do you suffer frequent headaches and backaches? It is possible that
the problem behind the evils that afflict you is the alignment of your body. But do not worry! With some
exercises you can correct, little by little, those postural defects. In this note we present five asanas to
improve posture. Keep reading and take the road to wellness.

What is good posture?

Ideally, maintaining a correct posture implies that your bone structure is aligned vertically. Imagine that
your ears, shoulders, hips, knees and ankles are in the same vertical line. At this point of alignment, the
muscles help support the structure of the body without having to over strain.
Being a misaligned part, the rest of the body tries to compensate for the weight, but the gravity still acts
downwards, so the pressure falls on muscles and joints.
However, good posture is not synonymous with absolute rigidity. Rather the complete opposite; You
should feel natural and relaxed. Your entire structure works together to stay upright and in balance. If
your body is accustomed to a bad posture, it may be necessary to correct it at first, but never painful or
immobilized.
On the other hand, proper alignment is not exactly the same for all people. All bodies are different and
unique. However, there are some general guidelines, such as those mentioned above.

What are the causes of bad posture?

In the modern world, it is extremely common for people to spend much of their day sitting and hunched
over. Of course our office work involves long hours in front of the computer, but if you take a look when
traveling on public transport, for example, you will see how we have become accustomed to shrink and
lower our eyes to concentrate on our smartphones, tablets, laptops , etc. This is one of the main causes of
the epidemic of bad posture that afflicts our society.
Other factors include abundant overweight, since the structure must hold more load than it should,
inappropriate shoes and mattresses, weak muscles, low self-esteem, stress, among others.
It is also clear that there are genetic factors and medical conditions that can cause poor posture, in which
case it is essential that it be controlled and treated by health professionals.

Asanas To Improve Posture

Through this book, we have been able to put together a simple routine of yoga poses that will help you
improve your posture. Make them with constancy and we assure you that you will notice the difference.

Uttanasana

Also known as the Foot Clip, Uttanasana is an ideal posture to lengthen and stretch the spine, a key
element to improve posture.
In principle, performing it is very simple. Just stand in Tadasana, take a deep breath, and start leaning
forward making sure that the movement comes from the hip, not the waist. The emphasis is on the
elongation of the spine, not how much you can "stick" to your legs. Ideally, you should seek to touch the
ground with the palms of your hands. If it's still impossible for you, you can take your ankles, or place
each hand on the elbow of the opposite arm, letting the force of gravity help you lower a little more.
Also, as a relief for tight shoulders, you can join your hands behind your back and stretch your arms while
you are in this position. Shrunken shoulders are a great source of discomfort and cause poor posture in the
upper body.

Vrkasana

The balance is almost impossible to achieve if you are not perfectly aligned. That is why almost all
postures that require balance are excellent for improving the stomachache. In this sequence, we
recommend one of the best known asanas: Vrksasana, the Tree posture.
To start, stand on Tadasana and feel the alignment of your column. Once you feel safe, start passing your
weight to your left foot, without modifying the rest of your body. Slowly, the right foot of the ground
begins to take off. Ideally, you should support the sole of the foot on the inside of your left thigh, with the
heel near the groin. If this is very difficult, you can start supporting it a little lower, or even on the calf.
Avoid the knee area. You can raise your arms extended to the sky, above the head, or join the palms of
your hands in a prayer position, in front of the chest.
Evaluate your posture: extend your spine well, bring your shoulders back and feel how your crown wants
to rise more and more. Hold the pose for a couple of breaths, and then repeat with the other foot.
Practicing Vrksasana constantly trains the spine to maintain its natural curvature, without slouching, and
also helps correct the shrug, and keep the head upright

adho mukha svanasana

One of the most well-known and loved postures by yogis of all levels, the Dog Head Down is an excellent
gift for the whole body. Not only does it allow us to achieve greater flexibility, but it also strengthens our
entire muscles. Strong and flexible muscles are essential to maintain good posture, as they help the bone
structure to maintain the correct position.
To do it, put yourself on the ground on four supports. Plant your palms well on your mat: make sure they
are wide open and pressing the floor. Fix the toes on the floor and, with an exhalation, begin to take off
the knees from the ground. In the final posture, ideally, the knees should be extended but not blocked, the
heels supported from the floor (or as close as possible), the thighs slightly rotated inwards. The shoulder
blades well planted in the back; Feel how it expands. Finally, do not let your head hang: keep it in line
with the column.

Gomukhasana

Also known as Cow Face Pose, this asana to improve posture is ideal because it helps to remove the
stresses of the shoulders and back, while working on the opening of the hips. It also promotes the
conservation of the natural curvature of the spine.
Sit in Dandasana, with your back straight, and flex your knees, with your feet on the floor. Slide your left
foot below the right knee and place your heel near the right side of your hips. Then over the right knee,
press the left one, and bring the foot to the left side of the hip. Make sure you are sitting correctly on the
ischia, with the weight well distributed. With an inhale, bring your right arm out and rotate it, so that your
thumb points, first towards the ground, and then backwards. When exhaling, bring your arm back, resting
your elbow on your lower back and trying to leave your forearm parallel to the spine. The palm of your
hand will be between your shoulder blades.
With another inhalation, bring the other arm towards the ceiling, with the palm of the hand pointing back.
When exhaling, flex your elbow and try to interlace your fingers. If this is impossible, you can use an
elastic band or some other accessory and take it with both hands, always maintaining tension. Stay for 30
seconds or a minute. Do it again with the other leg.
Once the column is mobilized in opposite directions, this position is ideal to realign it and neutralize its
position. When we perform a Spinal Twist, we not only promote the mobility of the spine, but also stretch
the upper train in general. Ideal for aligning and relaxing the shoulders, opening the chest area or
maximizing the arms.
Performing it is very simple: lie on the floor, making sure you are completely comfortable. Extend the
arms to the sides in the form of "T", without compressing the neck and with the palms facing the ceiling.
Bring your knees to your chest inhaling deeply, and when you exhale, slowly bring both knees to the
right, and your gaze to the left; You can help by placing a hand on the upper knee. Knees and feet stay
together; The shoulder blades do not detach from the mat. Hold the pose for as many breaths as you want.
Then, bring the knees back to the center and drop them to the other side.
There are similar variations and postures with one or both legs extended, or a deeper version using the
same feet as a counterweight to the knees. Any variation you choose, within your means, is excellent for
working the mobility of the spine and, with it, the posture.
Tadasana and Savasana
The Mountain Pose and the Cadaver Pose are deceptively simple. There are those who think that it is
simply standing or lying down, but those of us who know the true value of these elementary asanas, we
know that it is much more than that.
In what concerns us in this book, both Tadasana and Savasana are excellent "progress meters" and
opportunities to check the state of our body. When we are standing or lying in this way, we are in a
neutral position, which does not require much effort on our part. The real job is to take advantage of these
positions to perform a body inventory and to be aware of our posture.
It is a good idea to start the routine in Tadasana, taking a moment to align your body, and finish it in
common with Savasana, using that final moment of meditation and meeting yourself to explore the state
of your bone and muscle structure.

Savasana: The Challenge Of Relaxation

The every day practice of this stance conditions the body to assist discharge with focusing and improves
the sentiment of prosperity
Yoga has an assortment of styles and stances, which as a rule, offer similar advantages for the body and
psyche. Nonetheless, every one of these positions works in an objective. This time we need to discuss the
stance style for Savasana unwinding. This stance is one of the most significant activities of the yoga
session. Continue perusing and discover why.
What is savasana?
The Savasana act is otherwise called the "body represent." This yoga stance could regularly be mistaken
for a rest toward the finish of yoga practice, yet in actuality it is a stance that speaks to a test, in any
event, for those people who can cheerfully adjust, flex and bend their body. The explanation is on the
grounds that the specialty of unwinding is more troublesome than it truly appears. The Savasana present
sets up the conditions that enable the person to continuously enter a condition of all out unwinding and
thus goes about as a beginning stage for full reflection.
Despite the fact that from the outset this stance appears to be simple, in actuality, it is perceived by
educators and the most experienced in yoga, as the most troublesome stance of asanas. Truth be told, as
indicated by Patanjali, creator of the renowned Yoga Sutras, the Savasana speaks to second to none, the
meaning of Asanas.

accomplished enables you to start to notice and discharge the strains of the body and psyche.
Savasana is an act of dynamic unwinding, that is, each piece of the body in turn, each muscle in turn, and
each idea in turn. The every day practice of this stance conditions the body to assist discharge with
focusing and improves the sentiment of prosperity both physically and inwardly. Be that as it may, when
we stay with the aggregated pressures in the body, it is difficult to rapidly ace the Savasana position, that
is the reason it is imperative to rehearse different asanas before attempting this stance, since along these
lines, you can stretch, open and discharge the strain of the muscles and you will likewise help loosen up
the stomach and deal with the breath control, which will permit a superior encounter when you start in the
Savasana position.

Common Challenges Of Savasana

When you have finished your asanas or yoga acts, your body and mind must be worn out enough to have
the option to accomplish adequate unwinding and accomplish Savasana. In any case, as we stated, this
position is by all accounts straightforward, is more troublesome than you might suspect. The body can
normally cause interruptions that make it a test for the member; during the session the vibes of cold,
tingling, and so forth are exceptionally normal.

Some common thoughts that arise during savasana are:

 How any longer will we be here?
 Did that person simply wheeze? that is humiliating
 I trust I don't nod off and wheeze
 What will I accomplish for supper when I return home?
 Is this relationship truly working?
 I'm hungry
 What will be an amazing fate?
 I smell sweat
 I have a few obligations to pay
 Maybe I ought to leave my place of employment
It is typical that the mind puts protection from accomplish profound unwinding since we are familiar with
the cooperation of our muscles and the cerebrum to accomplish our objectives, nonetheless, in Savasana,
we should be similarly gifted in relinquishing all that movement so as to accomplish The useful impacts
of stance.
It is hard to set aside that everything significant happens when we are dynamic and moving. Be that as it
may, a profound piece of yourself, sit tight for those snapshots of complete unwinding to uncover your
internal truth. A sentiment of association, lucidity, knowledge, love and delight can emerge during this
condition of serenity and unwinding, and this is just an example of what contemplation offers. This is the
reason Savasana's position is the last demonstration of cognizant give up.

Proposals to loosen up all aspects of your body

•To loosen up your eyes and psyche: cautiously, place a fabric over your eyes to hinder the light, with
your eyes shut.
•To loosen up the stomach area: place a sandbag, square, or a couple of covers on a level plane on your
lower belly.
•To bolster the neck: place a collapsed cover or pad under your neck and head, until your temple is
marginally higher than the jaw.
•To loosen up the lower back: place a cover or a moved pad under your knees.
Savasana is a period of rest, however it's anything but a period for rest. In the event that you are one of
the individuals who tend to nod off, at that point the initial step is to be sympathetic with yourself and
perceive that your body needs some rest. After some time, you can prepare to accomplish the rest you
need while as yet being wakeful.

Conclusion

other time in recent memory. In spite of the fact that our general public will in general worth speed and
efficiency more; Learning to do nothing is an aptitude that can assist us with being increasingly gainful at
the time it is required.

harmony and agreement that feed the spirit. Rehearsing this stance resembles killing the PC when it
doesn't function admirably and once we restart it, we notice how it displays a superior usefulness.

Dandasana, a basic and fundamental stance

At first glance, Dandasana may seem like an easy posture to execute, especially since we tend to associate
sitting with comfort, muscle relaxation. However, executing the cane posture correctly requires a joint
effort of the whole body: from the abdominal muscles and the quadriceps that ensure that the back is held
up, to the feet that remain in flexion, the neck, which we must control to that does not collapse, and
shoulders and shoulder blades, which allow the chest to open.
In Sanskrit, danda means cane. You can think of this asana, then, as a guide stick that will help you build
a solid foundation for other asanas. And it is that the stance of the cane is one of the most basic and
fundamental: from it the great majority of asanas that begin in a sitting position, including many twists.
Many approach dandasana for the first time considering it as a moment of rest, only to find themselves
facing the intense work required to maintain this position. It is key, when creating the cane, to cultivate a
full awareness of the alignment of the spine in its entirety, from the coccyx to the cervical, and extending
to the top of the head.
Posture not only affects muscles and bones: breathing is also modified. By sitting upright, you can feel a
greater opening in the chest, therefore greater freedom to be able to perform a deep and conscious breath
In addition, you can take the practice out of the mat, beyond the yoga session. Being a simple posture,
you can practice it in everyday life. Work on posture awareness while watching television, for example,
instead of collapsing on the couch. A small daily effort can bring incredible changes to your posture, and
with it, great solutions to many back and headaches that originate from the bad habit of living hunched
over.
Cane Pose Step By Step
 Sit on your mat with your legs together and extended. If you find it difficult or painful to keep
your back straight in this position, you can use a folded blanket or any type of support to elevate
the pelvis.
  Place the arms at the sides of the body, resting your hands on the floor, at the height of the hips.
 Flex your feet, feeling as if you are trying to push with your heels.
 Use your abdominal strength to help you stay straight. Do not put pressure on the abdominal
muscles; on the contrary, look to raise that area
 Press the floor with the thighs, looking to rotate them inwards and pushing with the English
towards the sacrum. This will force you to sit without leaning back.
 The shoulders are released and the shoulder blades seek to come together, which generates
opening in the chest. It is important that you do not let your shoulders collapse.
 Bring the chin slightly to the chest, to elongate the neck area.
 Hold the posture for the breaths you need.

Dandasana Benefits
 Strengthens the back muscles and quadriceps.
 It improves stability.
 It improves posture.
 It helps to open the shoulders and chest.

tips for beginners

The most common difficulty that arises when performing this posture is to maintain the posture, which,
however simple it may be, can be extremely difficult and even painful for some people. Here are some
tips that can help you master this asana:

You can place weight on your thighs. This makes the work of the abdominal muscles easier and is ideal
for those who suffer from a lot of tension or stiffness in the legs.
Place a folded blanket, a cushion or a block on your mat to sit on top, raising the pelvis slightly.
Practice the pose by performing it against a wall. The sacrum and upper back are supported on the wall,
but the neck and lower back should not touch it.
Precautions
If you suffer from lower back injuries, perform the posture with modifications so as not to damage that
area.
Variations
To make the posture a little more intense, inhale and raise your arms above your head. You should take
care that your shoulders do not collapse, so that there is air between them and your ears. Also note that
the upper back should not arch

How to raise our energy vibrations

In order to flow in favor of the current we must try to raise our energy field, since in this way we will
achieve our goals while removing some barriers.
In order to flow in favor of the current we must try to raise our energy field, since in this way we will
achieve our goals while removing some barriers. Patrick Schneider Unsplash

We are definitely at the beginning of a decade and a new cycle. This stage is very complex and we will
witness many events that will bring us changes, including that of our conscience.

My suggestion is that in order to flow in the direction of the current we must try to raise our energy field,
since in this way we will achieve our goals while removing some barriers.
Among my advice, the main one is to become aware of our thoughts, remember that each and every one
of them influences us. If in the midst of a negative thought you switch to another that strengthens you,
you raise your energy vibration and invigorate yourself and your nearby energy field. Practice meditation
regularly. Even if it's only a few minutes each day while you wait at a stoplight, this practice is
significant.

Be aware of the food you buy. There are low and high energy foods. Food made from harmful chemicals
will break you down. Artificial substances are low energy producers.

Highly alkaline foods, such as fruits, vegetables, nuts, unleavened bread, and virgin olive oil, are often
considered high-energy and muscle-repairing, while high-acid foods, such as Flour-based cereals, meats,
dairy and sugars are in the lowest energy range, which makes you sick.

Alcohol, and almost all artificial drugs, legal or not, reduce the level of body energy. In addition, they
expose you to continue attracting more negative energy into your life. By the simple fact of consuming
low-energy substances, you will see that low-energy people begin to appear in your life. They will want
to invite you to take those substances, have fun with you and they will encourage you to repeat these
harmful patterns.

Pay attention to the music you listen to. Incoherent, monotonous and strong musical vibrations lower your
energy level. The same goes for song lyrics that reflect resentment, sadness, fear and brutality, because
they are low energies that send debilitating messages to your subconscious and saturate your life with
similar energies. If you want to attract violence, listen to songs with cruel lyrics, and that music will
become part of your life. If you want to attract peace and love, listen to the musical vibrations and the
song lyrics that express your wishes.

Become aware of the energy levels in your home environment. The pictures, the decorations, the spiritual
phrases, the books, the colors of the walls of your house and even the distribution of the furniture create
an energy in which you are submerged during half the time you spend awake. Traditional Chinese feng
shui art has been known for thousands of years and is a gift from our ancestors. It details various ways to
strengthen the energy field of our home and our workplace.

Decrease the hours in front of the television or on social media. According to statistics, children watch
20,000 murder drills on their home TV or the internet before they turn 14. The news is determined to
bring the infernal to your home and, to a large extent, they forget the good. It is an invariable stream of
negativity that assaults your sacred space and attracts as much into your life.

Crime is the main component of the programs, and the commercials are advertisements sponsored by
large pharmaceutical corporations that aim to convince you that happiness can be found in their
medications. The public is told that they need all kinds of low-energy medicines to overcome any
physical or mental illness.

Increase your energy field with images. Photographs are a form of energy reproduction since all
photographs contain energy. Strategically place photographs of moments of happiness, love in your
home, at your workplace, in your car or in your wallet. Place pictures of nature, animals, expressions of
joy and love in your environment and the energy will shine towards your heart and will give it its high
frequency.

Become aware of the energy levels of your friends, acquaintances, your family. You can raise your
energy levels while on the camp of energy of other people with a resonance close to spiritual
consciousness.
Control your activities and where they operate. Avoid low-energy fields where there is too much alcohol,
drug use, or violent behavior, as well as encounters focused on religious, racial, or bias separations.

These events influence so that you don't raise your energy and also so that you synchronize with the
lowest energy, the one that consumes you. Interact with nature, appreciate its beauty, go for a walk, swim,
enjoy nature. Attend spirituality lessons, yoga classes, receive massages, go to meditation centers, and
help others by visiting elderly geriatric centers, beggars, or sick children in hospitals.

your intuition: learn it.

Some people view intuition as a synonym for opinion, foreboding, or an impulse. So, from this point of
view, trusting your intuition would be an impulsive act and not highly recommended for decision-making,
since it is the opposite faculty to reasoning.

However, your intuition is a very valuable tool for choosing where to go and where not to go. It allows
you to detect extremely important information that is not elaborated through rational thought, but is
perceived at the level of your unconscious.

The more you develop your intuitive capacity, the easier it will be for you to follow this “hunch” and take
advantage of its benefits.
intuition is defines as "the power to understand things instantly, without the need for reasoning" and also
as "the intimate and instantaneous perception of an idea or a truth that appears evident to those who have
it".

The definitions above highlight two fundamental aspects of intuition. On the one hand, it is an evident
and intimate truth that is perceived only by the human being who intuits it and this makes it very difficult
to verbalize or explain the intuited. On the other hand, it occurs instantly, without the mediation of reason.

In short, the person who intuits knows something but does not know the reason for this knowledge.

How can you learn to trust your intuition?

To learn to trust your intuition you must understand its function, that is, that it is a tool that gives you an
understanding of a situation or person that you cannot obtain at a conscious level, using reasoning.
Intuition gives you information that you could not have otherwise.

It is also important that you do not confuse it with prejudices, opinions, fears, instincts or desires because,
otherwise, you will not know what you are trusting when choosing the path to follow in a given situation.

The best way to trust your intuition is to have the courage to follow it, without questioning yourself or
trying to reason what is intuited. The more you practice it, the more intuitive you will become and the
more comfortable you will feel using this skill.

Following your intuition does not go against rational thinking, rather they complement each other, they
are different instruments and each one has its benefits for you.

If you want to rationalize or make deductions from an intuited truth, its value for decision-making will be
lost, since its wealth is in the signals that are perceived by your unconscious and that manifest in you as a
hunch.
Why is it important that you trust your intuition?
Learning to trust your intuition allows you to:

 Saving time: When you intuit something, you receive a multiplicity of information from yourself
and from another individual or situation and this is expressed as a sudden and innate truth, as if it
were a mental shortcut.
 Make good decisions: intuition is infallible. Its mechanisms are not yet clear, but it is known that
the mind, the senses and even the viscera intervene. It is a natural capacity that the human being
has and rarely fails. You will surely remember a time when you went against your intuition and
things did not go well.
 Take care of yourself: the intuitive capacity is like an inner voice that tells you that you should
leave a certain place or that you should avoid relating to a certain person, and some authors relate
it to survival and self-preservation.

Practice mindfulness to improve your intuition

As mentioned earlier, you can cultivate this skill and one of the best ways to do this is by practicing
mindfulness.

Mindfulness, that is, being present here and now, paying attention to our thoughts, feelings, emotions,
body sensations and the environment that surrounds us, without judgment or interpretation, is a way of
promoting intuition.

On the contrary, if you are in a state of anxiety, worrying more about the future than the present, or with
ruminant thoughts (thinking about a problem without stopping), you will not be able to perceive your
intuition or you will confuse it with fears or desires.

Meditation can be an excellent technique for achieving mindfulness.

 CHAPTER SIX.

THE 8 TYPES OF MEDITATION AND THEIR CHARACTERISTICS

In this chapter you can find the different types of meditation and their characteristics so that you
understand what differentiates them and you can know what their benefits are.
Benefits of meditation

Meditating is not always easy, especially at the beginning, since it requires discipline and practice for its
perfection. Therefore, it requires effort, but in the long run its health benefits are numerous.

In the fast-paced world in which we live, many people find in meditation a way to reconnect with
themselves, far from Western culture, where consumerism and materialistic values govern the lives of the
vast majority of citizens. Meditation is a way to recover the essence of oneself and achieve inner peace.

In summary, here are some benefits of meditation:

 Increase your self-knowledge: some forms of meditation help reflect on your own experience.
 Mitigates the effects of stress: helps to find calm and reduce stress and anxiety levels.
 Positively affects the immune system: it has positive effects on general health.
 It is useful to empathize with others: it improves interpersonal relationships.
 Increases pain tolerance: reduces painful symptoms.
 Improves memory and cognitive functions: increases memory as indicated by some studies.
 Enhances the appearance of positive thoughts: helps to have an optimistic and positive attitude.

Types of meditation

Whether it is to calm the mind, to find oneself or to reduce anxiety or stress, it is interesting that you
introduce this practice in your daily life, as it is a way to improve the quality of life.

But , what types of meditation are there? What do the different ways of meditating give us? You can learn
more about the different meditation classes in the following lines:
1. Primordial Sound Meditation
Primordial Sound Meditation is a mantra-based meditation technique, rooted in the Vedic tradition of
India. A mantra is a phrase that repeated that helps us reach the state of relaxation and internalization that
promote the meditative state. Mantras are not random phrases, but are sacred sounds that the ancient
sages used for their meditative practice, because they have great harmonizing power.

Although this type of meditation is ancient, Deepak Chopra and David Simon revived this ancient
practice and created a meditation program based on mantras that anyone can practice, which is why it is
currently popular in the West. During meditation, it is necessary to repeat this mantra silently, as it creates
a vibration that allows you to place yourself in a place away from the noise of the mind, reaching calm
and pure consciousness. This type of meditation is ideal for those who are looking for a structure in their
meditation practice.
2. Vipassana Meditation

Vipassana meditation is often known as "insight" meditation and allows you to see things as they really
are. It is also a traditional Buddhist meditation practice, which is widely used in the West thanks to
Mindfulness. This type of meditation emphasizes awareness of the breath, tuning the air that enters and
leaves through the nose. It also focuses on labeling thoughts and experiences as they arise.

Every time a thought or emotion is identified, it needs to be identified and allowed to pass with a non-
judgmental attitude.
You can delve into this type of meditation with these techniques: "5 Mindfulness exercises to improve
your emotional well-being"

3. Zazen Meditation (Zen)

The translation of the Japanese word "Zazen" means "sitting meditation." Many people, when visualizing
meditation, imagine a person on the ground with their legs crossed, their eyes closed and their fingers in
the Mudra position. This It does not happen with Zazen meditation.

Although this type of meditation focuses on breathing and observing thoughts and experiences as they
pass through the mind and observing experiences in the environment, as in Vipassana meditation, there
are some differences between both kinds of meditation. A major practical difference is that in Zen
meditation, the emphasis of breathing is on the belly, rather than the nose (as in Vipassana).

Another big difference is that the posture is much stricter in Zen meditation than in Vipassana, with
special attention to the straight spine, the chin down and the hands placed in a special position on the
belly. In Zazen meditation, the eyes should always be open, with a low gaze, and in Vipassana, there are
no strict rules for the gaze, although it is common to keep the eyes closed. Zen meditation is
recommended for those who already have previous experience with meditative practice.
4. Transcendental Meditation

Transcendental Meditation is another type of meditation based on mantras. Like Primordial Sound
Meditation, its origin dates back to ancient India and each person is given a personal mantra used for
vibrational qualities to help calm the mind. Although the purpose of meditation in both forms is similar,
there are quite a few differences, including the mantras themselves and how they are selected, the
meditation instruction, and the recommended time to meditate.
5. Metta or Benevolent Love Meditation

The Metta or Benevolent Love meditation has its meaning in unconditional goodness and friendship. This
style of meditation also has its origin in Buddhist teachings, mainly Tibetan Buddhism. As scientific
studies show, compassion and this kind and loving form of meditation has proven to be particularly
helpful in fostering empathy, positivity, acceptance and compassion for oneself and others. Anyone with
low self-esteem, high levels of self-criticism, and a desire to be more empathetic to others can benefit
from this practice.
6. Kundalini Meditation

The main idea of this type of meditation is that thanks to this technique one awakens his Kundalini
energy, located at the base of the spine. When this energy is released, it travels down the spine and leads
to an experience commonly known as awakening Kundalini, which ultimately leads to enlightenment.
Kundalini meditations can include breathing techniques, mantras, mudras, and chants to harness the
power of the unconscious mind. It is an energizing way to awaken the mind.
7. Chakra Meditation

A chakra is an energy center in the body, and we have seven of them, each located in a different area of
the body and each associated with a different color, sound, and energy purpose. Chakra meditations can
be very powerful, especially when they focus and connect with one element in the physical or emotional
body at the same time. Many chakra meditations use sound, specific hand placement, and visualization
techniques to connect with the chakras and their healing energy.
8. Tonglen Meditation

This type of meditation is Tibetan Buddhist and is characterized by the person who practices it connecting
with their own suffering in an effort to overcome it. Our culture teaches us to avoid and flee suffering,
quite the opposite of what Tonglen meditation does.

This meditation class teaches you how to handle difficult situations in life, as it allows you to face them
by developing an attitude of openness towards suffering and abandoning negativity. It is also called give
and take meditation, and it cultivates compassion and empathy through breathing, visualization. Practice
can be done in any comfortable position, whether sitting or reclining.

CONCLUSION

Your third eye is a great tool to build you up, its importance in our everyday lives cannot be over
emphasized, The power of the third eye can manifest itself in different ways in different people, in some
cases, it allows us to hear and sometimes clearly in dreams.

The third eye also designates the entrance that would lead to inner realms and higher states of
consciousness .

It is often associated with religious visions, such as clairvoyance or extrasensory perception , as well as
the ability to observe the chakras and the human aura , precognition and get to experience extracorporeal
experiences .

People who claim to have the ability to use their third eye are normally called seers or fortune tellers in
the western world.

The third eye is also related to the concept of the "eye that sees everything" associated with sects Mystics
and their relationship with the pyramid printed on the dollar and the creation of a new world order.
The Third Eye means an enlightened state of consciousness in which the world can be observed in a way
we say almost paranormal; it gives you greater control over your mind and emotions and a deeper sense
of intuition according to the things around you.
