Heart Chakra Colour Meditation
by
Amitakh Stanford
The following Heart centre/chakra meditation is to help you to cleanse, activate and release emotional blocks and tocleanse and strengthen you hear chakra (energy centre).
This meditation can be done sitting in a chair or on the floor. It is important to keep your spine erect and relaxed.
Method:
Gently close your eyes and relax by taking five deep, slow breaths.
Become aware of your heart chakra which is located in the etheric body, roughly near the centre of the breastbone.
As you breathe in, imagine you are breathing golden light into your heart chakra. Keep repeating this until you feel the heart chakra isclear. When your heart chakra is cleansed, you will feel lightness oropenness, a light energy moving freely through your heart centre. Youmay feel joyous or you may feel a smile on your face. The more theclearing, the deeper or the more you feel that openness, lightness,space, smiles or joy. If you feel heaviness, a discomfort, or achingsensation, tension or emotional discomfort in your heart centre, thisis an indication that the blockage is still there. Continue to breathegolden light directly into the heart centre.
As you continue to breathe in the golden light, sit gently for a few minutes to allow yourself to experience this changed, open state.
Sometimes you may need a few sessions before the blockages are released.
Do this exercise once daily or as often as necessary.
You can also use this exercise for all the other chakras, and do it individually or all in one go.

"Located near your heart, in the very center of your chest, your fourthchakra is the domain of human intimacy. It is essential to affection, warmth, nurturing, friendship and familiarity. Your fourth chakra is the seat of your ability to feel joy, unity, laughter and especially, love-the very highest power in your life. It expands your capacity to be generous, sensitive, forgiving and tolerant. With a balanced fourth chakra, the circulation of your blood is healthy and smooth, your heart rhythm is regular and your arteries are clear from blockage. The fourth chakra is generally considered the most important energy center in your psyche, because it is from this chakra that love emanates. It is naturally associated with family, partners, friends, spiritual family members and animals. When it is balanced, you care about how you affect others. You want to touch them in a positive, nurturing way. You want to reveal to them the power of love.
Heart Chakra Facts:
· The heart chakra rules your compassion, forgiveness, generosity and love.
· A well-balanced fourth chakra will result in stimulating your highest
ideals and desires, and leave you feeling positive and nurturing.
· In your body, the fourth chakra governs the heart, circulation, breasts, and arteries.
· An apt image for the fourth chakra is an open doorway.
· The heart chakra vibrates with the color green.
· The heart chakra's mission statement is: I give, I care, I love.
When your heart chakra is balanced, you non-judgmentally accept yourself and others. You recognize beauty-in yourself and in everyone-while overlooking weaknesses. It is because of a balanced fourth chakra that you are kind and forgiving, as well as quick to pardon. You are also tolerant, optimistic, resourceful and humorous.If your heart chakra is off balance or shut down, you might have a tendency to run away from intimacy. You might even intentionally push otherwise loving and lovable people away from you. Without this sense of connection, you become critical, suspicious and defensive. Paranoia becomes a real possibility. If your heart center shuts down completely, you may be inclined toward secrecy, betrayal and addictions.By closing your heart, you continue to push people away, who in response reject you again, seemingly validating your initial etermination to seal yourself off. Again and again you pull back. Again and again you're pushed away. It's a self-fulfilling prophecy. Your heart becomes more closed and you become more isolated. A heart chakra imbalanced in the opposite direction-too wide open-causes problems too. You can become too empathic, too easily picking up on the anger or depression of others. You live at the mercy of the moods and feelings of those around you. This can be psychically and physically draining."
