First off, look at the diagram to the left – you’ll see there are 7 chakras going
from the base of our spine to the crown of our head.  These are energy
centers that receive, assimilate and express our life force.

These
energy vortexes interact with our psyche and if we have polluted
thoughts these sites become

clogged or stuck and impede the natural flow of energy – in other words we become out of alignment with who we really are.

The heart chakra
has to do with self-acceptance, self-love and the ability to love
others.

If you have unresolved pain from past issues of the heart or your current relationship is disappointing and less than luscious at the moment you will find that you are out of balance and the goal is to get back to a healthy loving state.

Ask yourself these questions to figure out if your heart chakra needs some help:

1) Do you love yourself?

2) Are you able to forgive past hurts from others?

3) Do you carry a lot of grief in your heart?

If the answer is yes to any of the above then include these affirmations in your daily health regime:

1) “I am worthy of love”

2) “I release my pain and forgive the past.  I am free to love.”

3) ” I am loving to myself and others.”

Take action to improve your heart chakra by:

1) Singing.

2) Playing with a child or pet.

3) Taking a walk in nature.

4) Figuring out what brings you joy and happiness and doing it!

5) Phoning or spending time with someone you love.

Tuning
up your chakras is no different than tuning up your car. Just as a car
experiences wear and tear so does the human body. Our bodies and
emotions are challenged with stress daily – it makes sense we would
need to do something to bring ourselves back into harmonious alignment.

So do something daily to nurture your heart so that it consistently sings sweetly:-)
