Description

Welcome to week four of our Self Activation series, where we explore each of the 7 primary chakra centers in depth. We discuss the interconnectedness of our energetic, physical, mental, and emotional selves, offering insights into how we can navigate and clear the blockages in our lives.

In this episode, we focus on the beauty of reopening your heart chakra. This chakra, located at the center of the chest, is the core of our love, compassion, and connection with others and ourselves. It’s the bridge between the physical and spiritual energy centers, and can be seen as the centerpiece of our inner guidance

An open heart feels like beauty and bliss. When we begin to trust our inner guidance, and feel emotions in order to use them as guides - we begin to move into a flow state. It’s the abandonment of self, the walls we put up, and the indecision to trust and listen to ourselves that causes the most suffering. As we open our heart- trust, love and compassion spreads through all aspects of our life - healing us and those around us.
