We continue moving up the chakra system to our power centre, the seat of our soul, our solar plexus. The solar plexus is also called Manipura in Sanskrit, which translates to "city of jewels". Our power centre is located in the upper belly at the diaphragm. This chakra is where we create our personality, keep our ego in check, where out intuition comes from (ever wondered where the phase "something doesn't feel right in my gut" or "my gut feeling is... :) ). This chakra governs our personal freedom, choice, authenticity, willpower, purpose and motivation.
Our digestive system can be effected by a unbalanced solar plexus. Ever wondered why you sometimes have a bad stomach when you feel scared, powerless? Why when you feel out of place, when something doesn't feel quite right, your stomach will growl? This certainly happens to me without fail!
This chakra has a very masculine energy, represents fire energy and is characterized by the colour yellow. The symbol that represents this chakra is a downward pointing triangle with a ten petaled flower. This chakra is also associated with manifestation as its mantra is "I CAN" and "RAM"
As briefly mentioned above a unbalanced solar plexus can physically manifest in the form of digestive issues, eating disorders, ulcers etc. Emotionally an unbalanced solar plexus can present its self as an excessive need to control, victim mentality, insecurity and feelings of helplessness. A balanced and opened solar plexus can help you find your power, assist with your manifestations, boost your gut health and your confidence. One thing I would like to stress here is that it can be super difficult to manifest the life of your dreams without balancing your solar plexus.
The crystals associated with the solar plexus are citrine, tigers eye, pyrite and amber. Again these are only my recommendations, any yellow crystal will assist you with the balancing of the solar plexus.
The Earths solar plexus is located right here in Australia, it is the sacred Uluru and Kata Tjuta. The Solfeggio sound frequency of 528hz that resonates with the solar plexus is believed to bring abour transformation and miracles into your life. It brings your DNA to its perfected state, which increases life energy, clarity of mind, awareness and inner peace.
For the next three days focus with intention on clearing and balancing your solar plexus chakra. You can do this in a number of different ways. You can use the meditations below, use one that you prefer, use a mantra meditation instead, do yoga poses, sit in stillness focusing on your sacral chakra... as you can see there are a number of different ways to cleanse your chakras. Pick one method that resonates with you and set a time out every day (preferably the same time everyday) where you will not be disturbed and with intention connect, clear and recharge your sacral chakra. Don't forget to share your experiences in the facebook group! :) I would recommend also printing out/ writing down the affirmations in the picture below and saying them out loud everyday with intention (go ahead and create some of your own affirmations and share them with the group, if you feel called to do so! :)). Any sort of movement does wonders in helping balance your solar plexus! So go out and dance in the rain, go for a walk, do some yoga poses!
The recommended meditation for balancing your solar plexus is a sound frequency video!
