Shine Bright: Prosperity and Chakras

28 April, 2014 — Posted in: All About Chakras Leave a Comment

418832595_e6f24812d1_z For the last two months we have been discovering how to balance our chakras to allow prosperity energy to course through our system. We create our life on the energetic level first. We think a thought, we have a feeling, and then we develop a belief. Only after all this energetic work has happened do we actually bring that belief into reality. If a chakra (the way station between our feeling states and our body) is blocked, then our ability to manifest is also blocked. We may find that we manifest only part of what we desire. In this series of blog posts we’ve found ways to balance our chakras by removing the energy of others from our system.

Prosperity is from the Latin word prosperitas, and means ‘doing well’. It is the state of thriving and having success. It often denotes being secure, safe, and wealthy, both in money and opportunities. I believe it also means being comfortable in our own skin, being in the zone and enjoying a smooth ride on the ferris wheel of life.

Bringing our chakras (all 7 of them) into a harmonic – a balance – allows us to experience a heightened sense of havingness. We are safe, secure, our emotions are balanced and flowing and we’ve attained a modicum of control over our need to be perfect. We are able to communicate fully and precisely, stating our needs from a place of knowing ourselves and feeling comfortable stating our needs. We are aligned with our Highest and Best Self and know that we are part of the Divine.

When we come from this space of harmony, when our energetic system is flowing without blockages, we are in sync with this state of prosperity, peace and contentedness.

We can allow ourselves to have a life of good fortune and ease. We’ve learned to move out the energies of lack and fear by using our tools – our grounding cord, tapping, blowing up roses. We are in gratitude for all that we have and know that at the same time we can have more.

When we realize that nothing is lacking, that we are fine just exactly the way we are, we experience appreciation, gratitude, prosperity, and abundance. When we deeply feel these emotions—when we wake up with them and go to sleep with them—then our outer world matches our inner world. What we feel, we will be. Our thoughts and feelings of prosperity and abundance magnetize all the material things that represent that prosperity and abundance to us.

I want to end our Chakra Clearing for Prosperity series with this quote from Marianne Williamson.

“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.

Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.

It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us.

We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?

Actually, who are you not to be?

You are a child of God.

Your playing small does not serve the world.

There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you.

We are all meant to shine, as children do.

We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us.

It’s not just in some of us; it’s in everyone.

And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same.

As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.” ~

Marianne Williamson, A Return to Love

We are all meant to shine and to share our natural state of grace with others. Shine Bright! Shine for all to see. Be content with who you are and share your light, your essence with the planet. As you stand in your own truth, being exactly who you were meant to be, others will follow.

Be well. Be you. Be prosperous and in joy.

Crown Chakra: Keeping the Channel Open

24 April, 2014 — Posted in: All About Chakras Leave a Comment

thirdeye12 Just as the first (root) chakra connect us to Mother Earth, the seventh (crown) chakra connects us with the Divine. Martha Graham famously said:

“There is a vitality, a life force, an energy, a quickening that is translated through you into action, and because there is only one of you in all of time, this expression is unique. And if you block it, it will never exist through any other medium and it will be lost. The world will not have it. It is not your business to determine how good it is nor how valuable nor how it compares with other expressions. It is your business to keep it yours clearly and directly, to keep the channel open.”

Keeping the channel open is communing with the Divine, however you see that Source of All. Our crown chakra is this portal to divine inspiration. As we open our seventh chakra and allow Spirit to enter our lives, we rest in this place of communion, of being part of the whole. And from this Source we receive our life force – that spark of uniqueness – our true essence.

When we are on our path, when we are living a life on purpose, full of joy and gratitude, we are in this space of communion. We are living the life we are meant to live.

Following your purpose in the deepest sense means that you are not concerned with the shoulds of the world. You’re not concerned about how your gift is being received. As Martha Graham says, you’re business is to express it – that’s all.

This is the state of Grace — when your thoughts, feelings, beliefs, words, and actions are outward expressions of your life’s purpose. That is the joy. As you come to know, deep within your soul, that you are living a life full of inner purpose and meaning, you radiate this joy out into the world, affecting everyone around you.

As you raise your frequency to match your unique purpose, you raise the vibration of the thoughts and feelings you transmit into the world. Think of that. As you think and feel joy and love and enthusiasm, those thought-forms travel from you to others around you. As other people pick up those vibrations, they will begin to match that higher vibration.

Your true mission in life is to express your unique gift—and to share it with the world. Opening and balancing all seven body chakras in the symphony of joy – allows you to be this beacon. To share. To be. To express.

Namaste.

The Energy of Home: The Seventh Chakra

21 April, 2014 — Posted in: All About Chakras Leave a Comment

Unlike the other six chakras, the seventh chakra is not a wheel; it’s a ring of energy, sitting almost like a monarch’s crown, on top of the head. Not surprisingly, it is sometimes referred to as the “crown chakra.” This energy center is your connection to the Divine. However you see that Source of All, this is your space of communion. When the seventh chakra is vibrating in a match with the Divine, you are vibrating in a state of knowing your own Spirit.

The work we’re doing together is about removing foreign energy from your seventh chakra, helping you to shine brightly, to stand in your own truth, and to become comfortable in your own skin. Being seen for who you really are, and sharing your personal light with the world, is the focus of the Chakra Clearing for Prosperity program.

Our experience of being who-we-really-truly-are—the thoughts and feelings that resonate and vibrate within us—is called our life force. This life-force energy permeates our whole being, radiating from the chakras and out to the physical body. By removing foreign energy from our chakras, we release tension in our body, allowing our life force—our chi—to move freely, bringing balance and harmony to mind, body, and soul. When we imagine popping a Golden Sun and feel that energy course through our body and aura, we are actually filling in with more of our own life-force energy.

This life force energy I believe is a glimmer of the Divine that resides within each of us. We are all connected to one another and to the Source of All. We are sparks of the Eternal Flame and as such we are never alone.

Meditation offers us the opportunity to explore this connection to the Divine. When we meditate, we open up the link between the conscious and unconscious minds, allowing us access to All Knowingness. There are many ways to meditate. One is not better than the other. Pick one that works for you. Commit to spending time each day connecting in with this energy of All. The following is a quick meditation that you can do anytime to feel one with Source.

The Energy of Home

As you sit in meditation, imagine your crown chakra vibrating in the color gold, the highest vibrational color. Sense a gold beam of light coming down from the Divine, kissing the top of your head and filling your crown chakra. Feel your whole body and aura come into alignment with this vibration of love, compassion, and grace. You are vibrating in a match and filled up, from head to toe, with the energy of Oneness. Ask that your life force, your chi, be brought into a harmonic with this vibration. Feel energized and filled to the brim with life affirming energies. You are one with All and as your life force moves throughout your body, you will maintain that connection.

Sit in this energy of “home” for as long as you would like. When you are ready to return to your day, thank the Divine and watch as the gold beam of light disengages from your crown chakra and moves back up into the cosmos. Know that you many connect to this Source Energy as often as you would like.

Loving-Kindness

You are never alone. We are all connected to the Universal Source and because of that, to one another. We are truly our brother’s keeper. What touches one, affects the whole. Your thoughts, your feelings, and your actions radiate from you and are received by others. You are involved in humankind, whether you are consciously aware of it or not. Choose to be a conscious creator of love and kindness.

No man is an Island, entire of itself;

Every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main;

If a clod be washed away by the sea,

Europe is the less, as well as if a promontory were,

As well as if a manor of thy friends or of thine own were;

Any man’s death diminishes me, because I am involved in mankind;

And therefore, never send to know for whom the bell tolls;

It tolls for thee. ~John Donne, Meditation XVII

Clairvoyance: Clear Seeing

17 April, 2014 — Posted in: All About Chakras Leave a Comment

thirdeye Clairvoyance isn’t the mystical process we’re lead to believe, but instead a willed process of visualization. It’s a matter of being able to systematically call up relevant information on demand.

Most people don’t consider themselves to be clairvoyant simply because we are not taught to be – we’re taught in verbal rather than visual language. We’re often told that something is so, but we rarely take the initiative to “look” for ourselves. There’s very little permission for this way of gaining information.

With our sixth chakra closed, it’s hard for the harmonic to develop between all seven body chakras. But, as we allow ourselves to access our intuition, we open this chakra. That’s really all it takes – permission. As we give ourselves permission to see the unseen -as we validate our intuitive hits – we open this chakra wider and wider. The following exercise is a fun way to experiment with opening your third eye.

No Psychic Ability Required: Door One or Door Two?

Oftentimes in life we are faced with an either/or, yes/no type situation. We dither back and forth, weighing the alternatives with our rational, analytical brain. Sometimes though it’s best to step back from what we see with our eyes and go within – accessing the whispers of our soul.

Here’s an exercise I teach and often use myself when I’m stuck between Option 1 and Option 2.

Pick something simple to start with: let’s say that you can’t decide whether to go to the beach or the mountains for an upcoming three day weekend. You have pros and cons for each, yet you can’t make up your mind. Take out a piece of paper and write the word Beach on one and Mountain on the other. Turn the pieces of paper upside down so you can’t see which is which and shuffle them around until you don’t know which is in your left hand and which is in your right. Hold one in your left hand during the following meditation and the other in your right hand during the meditation

Now close your eyes and get into a meditative space. Be alone, no phones, no computers to interrupt your reflective time. Sit in a comfortable chair with your feet flat on the floor. Bring yourself into balance by grounding to the earth. This is an important step as you want to be sure that foreign energy (the thoughts and feelings of others) is not a factor in your choice.

Breathe in and center. Bring all your awareness to the center of your head. Find your space, between your ears, behind your eyes, in the center of head, your seat of intuition. Breathe out and ground. Feel your body sink a little bit deeper into your chair. Breathe in and center, breath out and ground. Repeat until you feel focused and calm.

Now imagine two doors in front of your closed eyes. See the door on the left with the word Door 1 standing out in nice graphics. See the other door on the right with the word Door 2 in the same large graphic style.

Observe both doors – one on the left, one on the right.

Now, as you look at both doors, see whether your eyes are naturally drawn in one direction. Which direction? Left or right?

Does one door seem to shine or stand out more than the other one?

Describe out loud to yourself both doors. Get a good understanding of the qualities of both doors. Decide which one is your choice – left Door 1, or right Door 2.

Now, come out of meditation. You’ve just used your intuition, your psychic ability, to listen to your own internal wisdom. Not outside voices or the shoulds of the world, but your own sense of what is best for you.

Now, turn over the piece of paper in your hand that corresponds to your intuitive choice – the piece of paper in your left hand, representing Door 1, or the piece of paper in your right hand, representing Door 2.

Where will you spend your three day weekend? The Beach or the Mountains??

Finding and living prosperity is all about checking in with your intuitive self. Knowing deep within that you have the answers to what is best for you. Looking within, often, and with awareness, is what brings this chakra into alignment with your highest and best self.

Cheers! You’re officially using your clairvoyant abilities. Wasn’t that fun and easy?

Sixth Chakra: Intuition, Prosperity and Your Third Eye

12 April, 2014 — Posted in: All About Chakras Leave a Comment

5759997022_7fa58a33c2 What do the chakras have to do with prosperity? Everything!

We create our life on the energetic level first. We think a thought, we have a feeling, and then we develop a belief. Only after all this energetic work has happened do we actually bring that belief into reality. If a chakra is blocked, then our ability to manifest is also blocked. Prosperity is from the Latin word prosperitas, and means ‘doing well’. It is the state of thriving and having success. It often denotes being secure, safe and wealthy, both in money and opportunities. Bringing all seven chakras into a harmonic allows us to experience a heightened sense of comfort and ease – we are doing well – and we are prosperous.

As we clear each of the seven body chakras and bring them into harmony, we are syncing up our bodily needs (first chakra) with our emotions (second chakra), adding our internal fire (third chakra) and bringing it all in affinity with our fourth chakra, the seat of our self-worth. We then add our ability to stand in and communicate our truth (fifth chakra) with our soul’s desires (our sixth chakra), and align it all with Source, represented by the seventh chakra, we manifest a world of inner peace, joy and prosperity.

Let’s dive in to one of my favorite chakras, the sixth. Often called the third eye, the sixth chakra is located right above our eyebrows. From here we intuitively see the world around us. If our sixth chakra is healthy and free of other peoples’ energies, then we see the world as it is, without judgment. Opening up the sixth chakra and cleaning out all the thoughts and feelings of others, allows us to see our world as it truly is, connecting to our sixth sense – our ability to communicate with our soul – and bypassing all the judgments and should energy of the world around us.

I believe that we all have the ability to use our intuition to sense or intuit, that which we cannot see with our eyes. Being in touch with this innate ability is something that we in the West have dismissed as woo-woo crazy. I think it’s time to rethink this. In this post from November 2013, I discussed how to use creative visualization to open up our psychic abilities. Much of the work I teach through blog posts and in my book is about opening up our ability to see the unseen.

Often called the “third eye,” the sixth chakra is located right above your eyebrows. Seeing the world through our third eye allows us to experience a sixth sense, a way of sensing the energies of the thoughts and feeling of those people in our life. In most cases, young children have wide open sixth chakras. Over time, their parents and society in general, may invalidate these sixth sense experiences, causing a fog of uncertainty to descend over this energy center. But what can be shut can also be opened!

I believe that when we close our eyes and imagine or visualize we’re actually using our inner sight, our clairvoyance. We are actually activating our sixth chakra. When you utilize your imagination in the following exercise you’re not creating a fairy-tale, made-up experience. As you picture your grounding cord or imagine all your own energies zooming back into a Golden Sun, you are creating the experience of being grounded to the earth with your scattered energies flowing into your body on the energetic level. This is actually happening, we just can’t see it with our physical eyes. As we sit in meditation and let go of the need to see with our physical eyes, we tune in to our inner world of knowingness, our Spirit, our connection to the Divine.

One of the first steps in any meditation is getting yourself centered and present. Being centered means to be in present time, right here, right now; you’re not thinking of what happened in the past or about tomorrow’s to-do list. When you’re scattered, you’re less potent and unable to bring your full potential to the task at hand. So centering becomes a practice of mindfulness, being fully present, with all your thoughts and feelings in one place, a place of stillness.

This place of stillness is the home of our Spirit. Some call it the Seat of the Soul, and it’s located in the middle of our sixth chakra, our seat of intuition.

Exercise: Opening Your Sixth Chakra

Sit in a comfortable chair with your feet flat on the floor. Close your eyes and breathe – in and out, in and out. Focus on relaxing your body and being fully present. Allow thoughts of future events and past conversations to melt away. Breathe in and ground to the center of the earth. Breathe out and sink a little bit deeper into your chair. Breathe in and imagine bringing all of your focus to the center of your head. Between your ears, behind your eyes, is the sixth chakra, the seat of your clairvoyance. With each inhale bring more of your energy into the center of your head. With each exhale feel yourself sink a little deeper in your chair as your grounding cord connects you to Mother Earth.
Now, imagine a soap bubble out in front of your closed eyes. Ask this soap bubble to fill in with the colors representing YOU, right now, at this particular moment. Imagine the bubble filled with color. If you can’t see it clearly, don’t worry, just imagine what it would be like, if you could see it. That’s the key to developing your psychic abilities; at the beginning, just relax and allow your imagination to flow. At the beginning it might be more a sense of knowing. Relax and just go with it.
Now “read” the bubble. What do those colors mean to you? Are they flowing around or are they static? Are they “angry” colors, or “calm” colors? Each person interprets the colors in a different way. There is no right or wrong answer; just your answer for YOU. That’s it.
Now interpret what you see. If you see a color that looks angry, check to see if you have some angry thoughts running through your head – even in the back of your head. If you see or feel a color that looks like joy, then think about whether you are feeling some joy. If you sense frustration or effort, then ask for that energy to show up in your bubble as a certain color. Oftentimes when I ask a question like that I’ll see or sense a certain area of the soap bubble lighting up. It’s almost like the bubble is saying, “Hey, check it out over here! Here’s the information you asked to see.”
Just look and see and imagine. Have some fun and try to relax. Just ask your intuition to show you what you need to know. That’s it.
When you are ready, open your eyes and come out of meditation.

Each person sees colors differently. So go within and look at your soap bubble and begin to understand your world. (You’re doing it! You really just experienced being psychic!)
