In today's episode, we will work with the heart chakra,
The heart chakra works with the thymus gland, heart and circulatory system, lungs, shoulders and arms, ribs and breasts, diaphragm, and Vegas nerve
Mental and emotional issues are love, hope, and trust, forgiveness and compassion, resentment & bitterness, grief and anger, self-centeredness, loneliness, and commitment.
Physical dysfunctions may be asthma/allergies, or issues with the heart, lungs, shoulders or breasts.
If you work with stones, rose quartz, emerald, or jade works with the heart chakra
Essential oils would be sandalwood, rose, cedarwood, white angelica, or bergamot
The heart chakra is the 4th chakra in the body
the fourth chakra is the seat of consciousness and the point of touch between body and spirit
The color for the heart chakra is green, it is represented by a 12 petal lotus
For today’s mudra, we will bend our pointer finger to the base of our thumb and touch the thumb with the middle and ring finger to form our O leaving the pinky finger straight out.
We would hold our hands with palms up on our knees
Our chant today will be Yam
Before starting today’s movements and meditation, we will use a little Qigong. Make a fist with your hands knock just below your shoulders moving inward towards your heart center. when you get to your heart center move down then back up and back out to your shoulders.
