Is being assertive difficult for you? Are you always concerned about what others think about you or how things should be? Dislike being alone and feel powerless?
The 3rd energy center – Solar Plexus Chakra or often known as your power center is found below the sternum/breast bone and above the navel Digestion is the main function of the solar plexus chakra Digestive problems, food allergies, diabetes, gallstones, ulcers, and liver complaints are some of the physical conditions that are associated with this chakra
Psychologically the Solar Plexus is responsible for digesting emotions Pain is what is beneath anger, and as a result hides the inner power lying dormant within you Suppressed emotions that are not serving you hold this powerful energy captive and until they are dealt with and released you will not be able to reach your full potential
The Solar Plexus is all about your self esteem your power and identity The energy of your third chakra was developing around the age of 5 and you needed to know how unique you were You had to learn that you had power and that you could use that power by asserting yourself when you needed to be heard
If your parents did not validate you with statements that you were powerful, affirm that you could do whatever you set your heart on, and remind you that you were given wonderful gifts and talents to fulfill your purpose here on earth then your third chakra would be immature
For many people parents did not validate or affirm their children with these powerful statements of who they really are None the less it is never too late to validate yourself with these truths and bring your power chakra into alignment
Gaining an understanding about your Solar Plexus chakra will help you get in touch with your intuition or your “gut instincts” that sends you the signal to do or not to do something, and helps you to maintain your own personal power
This is the last of the personal chakras, and from this chakra we move to the heart chakra which is the first of the universal chakras making this chakra an important place of transition
Here are some ways to bring your Solar Plexus chakra into balance:
* Release the energy of the emotions that you are experiencing as they surface up, by using some release techniques
* Yellow is the color that is associated with this chakra Use it to balance this chakra
* Essential oils: Rosemary, Juniper, Geranium, Peppermint, black pepper, Ginger
* Gems: Citrine, tiger eye, topaz
* Place your hand on your 3rd chakra just above your belly button and below your sternum while repeating these statements:
I choose to release all my fears and struggles that have to do with power and
struggle
I fully step into my power now
It is safe for me to be powerful
I am using my power to better my life and all of mankind
Write in your journal and mention one step you will take to take back your power and be the unique and powerful person that you are
