Chakra Meditation: The Benefits of Opening All 7 Chakras
The Benefits of Opening the Seven Chakras
As the main junctions of spiritual energy throughout the body, each chakra has its own unique set of functions and characteristics. Below are the seven chakras, their locations, the qualities they promote, and the best way to open them all (meditation!).
#1: Root Chakra:
• To find this chakra, it helps to sit in the lotus position (or cross legged).
• This chakra is located right at your tailbone, hence the name "root."
• Root chakra meditation helps us feel more grounded and stable.
• Associated with life's bare necessities, like food and shelter.
• Many think of the root chakra as our "financial stability" center.
• Feeling "rooted" in this chakra reminds us that the ground is "always beneath us," and that we just need to relax.
• No matter what happens in life we can always come back to our root.
#2: Sacral Chakra:
• The sacral chakra is located two inches below the navel and two inches inward.
• It's the chakra of graciousness, pleasure, and selflessness.
• Sacral meditation helps us feel more generous & charitable.
• An opened up sacral chakra reconnects us to the "whole" — helping us feel less loneliness and depression.
#3: Solar Plexus Chakra:
• As the name suggests, this chakra is located in the upper abdomen.
• Linked to our sense of control.
• If you've ever had butterflies in your stomach, your solar plexus chakra was feeling weak.
