I've been reading Vivian Crowley's book "The Magical Life" and she has an excellent Chakra opening exercise. I've been doing this for the last few days. As you draw energy up through your root chakra you let the energy grow until each chakra is fully opened, I have noticed something strange. I keeping getting stuck at my heart chakra. I can feel the energy flowing through my body. It's a lovely tingling, alive feeling, and when I get to the middle of my breast bone, it's like a pit, a rock. While doing this the other day, I took the time to rub on that area, to see if I could loosen things up, and I was amazed at how tender and sore it felt. I could press just below, and just above with no pain, but to press just on that point was extremely uncomfortable. I did my best to push the energy through that area and move onto the throat, the forehead, and the crown, but I can't help but wonder what is going on. Am I holding onto a feeling, or fear? I don't know enough about the correlation between each chakra and other body parts. I'll do some looking into this, and I will keep trying to open this area.
On another note, last night I sat with the family and did this exercise with them. We sat in a circle as I led them through it. It was lovely, and I was thrilled at how well the kids liked it. Each described the energy flowing through them, and things that they saw in their meditations, describing what it felt like to have the white light of the crown chakra pouring over and down around their body. My son also noted how towards the end of the meditation when we were closing the chakras, he was reluctant to close them, because he was enjoying it so much. They felt extremely relaxed and ready for bed when we were finished. And best of all, they were looking forward to another meditation.
