Select a Thought

Are you confused? Is your mind spinning round in circles? Do you feel as though you are suffering from information overload?

Unfortunately, this is all too common in the hectic fast paced world we find ourselves in today. Sometimes the pressure of trying to find an answer, of trying make the right decision can become almost unbearable.

As a result, confusion sets in, the mind feels as though it just cannot cope with any more options, and there is a danger of despondency setting in.

Eventually, the seventh crown chakra can become blocked. This chakra is situated at the very top of the head and is the gateway to inspiration, spirituality and mindfulness. It is the power house of our mind and thoughts.

Fortunately, with a little gentle visualization we can ease away the blockage of this chakra quite easily.

It will help to find a quiet comfortable place where you can visualize in peace. When you are ready, let your eyelids close fully over your eyes, and take a long, slow, deep breath…

Let your body relax… be aware of the gentle rhythm of your breathing…imagine now, at the very top of your head sits a beautiful lotus flower…it has many large white petals, tinged with a delicate shade of pink…as you continue to gently breath slowly in …and out…you become aware of those beautiful petals…one by one, they slowly unfurl… the petals fall away from the center..they resemble a hand holding an orb…from far above, rays of radiant white light fall into the center of the lotus flower…the rays flow gently down…allow the soft light flow into your mind…your mind becomes refreshed…you are calm, you are at peace…

When you choose to awaken, you will feel completely refreshed, your thoughts will be stilled, you will have peace, and clarity of mind.

The aura is an energy field of light surrounding the body of all living things. It’s likened to a heat haze. The color of your aura, can be any color of the rainbow depending upon your mood. Not everyone has the natural ability to actually see the aura, but most people can sense the atmosphere and mood that surrounds an individual.

The color of your aura corresponds to one of seven vital energy centers in the body called chakras. The chakras and associated colors, correspond to the endocrine glands of the body which run up along the spine.

Starting from the base of the spine is the root chakra and the color red. Next comes the sacral center which is orange, followed by the yellow centered solar plexus. Green is associated with the heart center, and blue for the throat. The ‘third’ eye is the center of the forehead and is colored indigo. Finally, comes the violet crown at the very top of your head.

Now if there is a blockage in one of your chakras you will need to draw the appropriate color to that area. This is best done by visualizing a bright colored light entering your body and centering on the chakra in question.

For example, if you are experiencing negative emotions, you should focus your attention on your sacral center, which is just below the navel and linked to the color orange.

Another area to focus your attention on here, is the solar plexus, positioned just below your breastbone. The color to visualize here is yellow.

I will add more helpful tips about your chakras in future postings, but for now practice drawing the colored light into your body. You will find that your subconscious will come into play, and you will be drawn to attract the color that you are in most need of.
