Opening Your Third Eye Chakra

The third eye chakra is your 6^th energy center and it has everything to do with vision, creativity, foresight and being connected to your higher power.  After you have cleared the root, sacral, solar plexus, heart, throat and third eye chakra you will come to see things a little clearer although you might still be doubting in your own abilities.  The good news is that you don’t have to do it alone.  You can rely and count on the loving guidance of the universe to help you co-create the life you truly want.  Once you have owned your truth, used your voice and cleared the blockages from the lower regions of your body it is now time to connect with the higher realms.

If you have a blockage in your third eye chakra you will experience many different symptoms but masking it will only numb the pain. We must do some digging to get to the root cause or the problem and for many it’s a long standing resentment or built up anger that is preventing the flow of good positive energy. 

If you have an imbalance here are some of the signs and symptoms to look out for:

Lack of your own intuition 

Not being able to use your own imagination to create life experiences you want

Fearful and scared to make a move forward

Paranoid and stuck in a space of fear

Unmotivated and unable to focus

Close minded and stuck in your old ways

Low energy

Attracting drama and problems into your life.

Holding onto limiting beliefs

Feelings of depression, anger, frustration, grief, guilt, and shame

Feeling powerless to change your current life situation

Unclear vision

Being negative towards your body

Insomnia or bad dreams

When this energy center is open and balanced here are the changes you can expect to see and feel:

Enhanced intuition and physic abilities

Expanded and creative imagination to create more fun in your life

Deep spiritual connection to yourself and others

Heightened sense of awareness

Feeling connected to the universal energy or to God

Deep sense of clarity about where you are head and what you intend to create for yourself

Trusting of others

Ability to own your truth and stand in your personal power

Connected to an inner knowing and claiming what is yours

A deep sense of rest and inner peace

The ability to see yourself clearly with more love and admiration

Self-love and embodying a spirit of love, joy, happiness, and inner peace

In order to balance out our energy and live in a more harmonious way  we need to be mindful of what we are actually giving our energy to and we need to be stewards and advocates of our own needs, wants, and desires.   We have to confidently be voicing what we believe and be okay with the outcome.  We have to stand boldly in our truth regardless of who likes or supports us because at the end of the day the only thing that truly matters is that we are on our own side and no longer at resistance with our divine truth.

Taking Bold Action Steps

 Changing your life and reclaiming your energy and personal power requires active participation.  We cannot sit idle and expect our life to magically get better so that means we always need to be self-reflecting to see if we are in alignment with our own truth.  We either need to shift something or let some things go.  This might include:

Changing your schedule

Setting more boundaries

Removing a certain friend

Staying off social media

Focusing on what truly matters

Cleaning up your environment

Not going to certain places that bring your energy levels down

Resting or sleeping more

Taking better care of yourself

Switching up the products you use

Eating differently

Removing certain foods

Moving your body in different ways

Meditating more and working on your mindset

Being true to your own sense of style

Creating more time and space to be with yourself

Honouring those you love

Forgiving someone

Letting anger go

Getting very intentional with how you spend your time

Watching better shows or reading better books

Asking for help

A Deep Sense of Knowing

You always know what you need to do, and if you’re not sure, then it’s best to wait it out and take your time.  The answers will come to you when you need them and then you take action if required.

Trust and relax

There’s a divine flow, timing and a process when it comes to perfect timing.  Some things need time to settle and grow.  So, this means where you are right now in your journey is exactly where you are meant to be.  Trust and know that when you need something it will be provided, so relax while you can.  Sleep is the gateway to the subconscious mind so rest and take naps.  Trust that all is well and everything is perfect and use the time you have to take even better care of yourself.

Meditation and Yin Yoga

Meditation will help you connect to the divine even more and help you work through any blockages you may have.  If you can’t figure something out simply pray, ask for guidance and let it be.  You can’t rush greatness and great things take time.  You might also consider going plant based for a brief time or add in more plant based meals to your diet as well.  Consider drinking more water and including electrolytes.

Separation Season

When you are in the process of transformation it can be a dark and lonely process but trust this separation season is necessary for your own personal growth and development.  You are being separated from what does not serve you and being connected to who you truly are and this is a beautiful process of self-discovery and ultimately self-love.  Take great care of yourself and use this an opportunity to continue to water those seeds of potential and those dreams placed upon your heart.  You may find yourself getting worn out, tired, sick or even experiencing body pain while you are working on clearing blockages.  You may find that you crave more alone time or are crying more and this okay.  This is all part of transformation so honour the season you’re in and trust that everything is working out for your highest good.  In order to truly find yourself, love yourself and respect yourself you need time and space so allow yourself the time and space you need without feeling guilty.  Allow your body the rest it needs if rest is what you are needing.  If your body is craving movement honour what your body is needing but also know that if you are injured or keep getting injured it might be a sign that it’s time to surrender to something gentler like yoga, walking, or palates.

Affirmations

Owning your greatness and being your own best friend is essential so that means anything that you say following I am will be your truth.  Use affirmations like I am remarkable, I am happy, I am proud, I am wonderful, I am unstoppable, I am willing, I am receiving, I am seen, I am validated, I am abundant, I am greatness, and I am eternal.  Self-confidence comes from within and part of being confident is accepting yourself and speaking kind, loving words over you life.  Your tongue has power so listen before you speak and don’t speak anything negative about yourself or others. 

Acceptance

Every day that we rise it is another opportunity to tap into the endless and abundant energy source that we are.  We can choose to live our truth, or we can live a lie.  Living our truth is why we are here.  We are here to fulfil the highest and truest expression of who we were created to be and that looks different on everyone.   That’s why you can’t judge based on appearances.  The spirit is unseen, and you have no idea who someone really is because you are not the one living inside of their mind and body.  Only God does that so that means God is in each and every single one of us and we are no different and no more special than anyone else on this planet.  We are all unique and individual expressions of God and with God all things are possible.  You must know and accept that you are the creator of your own life, so if you are not excited about your life or in love with your life it’s your job to change it for one can do the work for you. 

Clear and Connected

While laying flat on our back, close your eyes and focus your energy and attention towards the center of your eyes and breathe.  You may find that when you are clearing the energy blockage your eyes begin to twitch, move back and forth or roll around.  Continue to keep your eyelids closed and just breathe.  Allow the energy to flow and your body to do what it knows what to do.  Stay here until there is no more movement.  Keep your focus inward and towards the centre of your forehead just right between your eyes which is where this energy portal is located.  When this chakra is clear and connected you might notice your head slightly going around in circles counterclockwise and clockwise.  You will also experience a blue light or see light emerging with your eyes closed, almost like a firework show.  Your third eye chakra is now open, and you have a clear and connected channel to your highest self, Source, God, The Universe, The Divine or whatever you want to call it.  It is in this space where your mind is clear, and you can ask your higher self questions and tap into your unique presence, intuition, guidance, psychic abilities, and superpower.  Finish off with some light stretching, cat and cow and just get the energy flowing.

Connecting to Source

The real magic happens inside, so when you are connected to Source, or God, or Your Highest Self, or whatever else you want to call it, know that you are energy and you are love.  You are not your body and if you spent most of your life attached to form or your materialist world, then that is where most suffering tends to take place.  Connecting to the other side is a whole new world and a whole new dimension where you are able to create and manifest what it is you came here to do in this lifetime.  The more connected you are, the happier and healthier you will be.  When you’ve lost your connection, the that is where most pain and suffering tends to happen.  Choose to live in the light and notice when you have fallen from grace.  You will know by how you feel.  If you are feeling good, are energized, are happy, and having fun, chances are you are in the sweet spot.  If you find yourself suffering or in pain, you likely will have lost connection and are not stuck in your head and thoughts.  When this happens take some time to sit with yourself, check in, see what you need and breathe.  Honour what comes up and get reconnected to yourself and your own heart and soul.

A Prayer for Peace of Mind and Freedom from Body

When in doubt, always stop and be grateful.  Use prayer and reach out to God if you need help.  Your steps will be guided, and you will be directed.  Close your eyes and fill your body with breath. This breath is your life force.  Breathe in.  Breathe out.  Breathe in.  Breathe out.  Just feel how incredible it is to be alive and have love circulating in your life.  Take a minute to honour your inner presence and simply be with yourself.  What an honour it is to be here.  A brand new day full of endless possibilities, new experiences and the chance to live this day.  Here is a simple prayer you can speak anytime you need relief.

Dear God. 

As I close my eyes and connect to your never ending loving presence, I thank you.  I thank you for giving me life today.  I thank you for filling every ounce of my body with love and strength.  I thank you for keeping me centered and connected with your love and for tuning out the lies that can easily creep in my mind.  I thank you for the opportunity today to honour my temple with loving words, kindness, praise and wholesome foods.  I thank you for allowing me to see myself clearly and to accept who I am in this present moment.  Lord, there are some days where I wake up and can’t seem to shake the negative voices in my head that fill me with hate, attack, and fear.  I ask that you remove this pain from my life and return me only to peace, love, and trust.   Amen.

Keep Going and Don't Look Back

A spiritual practice is a lifelong journey that never ends.  That’s because for every ending there is always a new beginning.  For every winter, there is always spring, and we simply need to trust that our life force is always growing, dying, rebirthing and reinventing itself. Let go of what no longer serves you and be intention about looking forward.  The past is over and gone, the present moment is all you have and the future is full of endless possibilities, dreams, hopes, and amazing opportunities.  Choose to keep moving forward and choose to honour your life in ways that feel best for you.   Stand up for yourself, speak your voice, be authentic and do what makes you happy, and when in doubt always choose faith over fear.  Trust and know that when in a season of uncertainty this too will pass, and you will come out even better in the end.
