The Heart Chakra
Colour = Green

is located at the center of the spine at heart level. The heart chakra acts as an individual’s center of compassion, empathy, love, and forgiveness. This chakra governs one’s senses of trust, fearlessness, peace, generosity, gratitude, and connectedness, as well as change and transformation, healthy boundaries, depth in relationships with others, emotional control, and love for oneself.

When the heart chakra is out of alignment, a number of issues can arise. One might feel hard-hearted, brokenhearted, unhappy, lonely, insecure, easily hurt, or unable to receive love. One might choose to lead with the head and not the heart, to grow distant from others and put up walls, to shut down emotionally, or to hold onto resentment or bitterness.

Exercise in general can play an important role in developing a healthy sense of self-love, as well. Our bodies are our greatest gifts, and the more we learn to respect, honour and take care of them, the healthier our heart chakras will be overall!

Breath work is also a powerful practice, especially considering that the element of the heart chakra is air. Even something as simple as deep breathing can bring peace and calm to the heart and remove stuck or negative energy from the heart chakra.

Take time out of your day to clear out some negative energies from your heart chakra; repeat daily

"I am worthy and deserving of love"
"I forgive myself and others"
"I am open to giving and receiving love"
"I live with gratitude and generosity"
"I honour the guiding of my heart"

Working with the ROOT CHAKRA

Planting your bare feet in to the grass! What this does for you & your body

Walking barefoot on the natural ground and letting the soles of your feet come in to direct contact with the earth has many benefits for your health! Doing this simple technique of grounding can help prevent insomnia, reduces inflammation, helps improve your mental well-being, regulates your heart health and is great for your eyes.

Walking barefoot on the ground releases endorphins and can improve electrical activity in the brain. It is also a great way to boost your immune system.

Spend 30 minutes a day walking around barefoot on the grass to improve all of the above! It also feels really good too!!! 😊

The Solar Plexus Chakra
Colour = Yellow

Located between the navel and solar plexus, is the core of our personality, our identity, of our ego. The third chakra is the center of willpower. While the Sacral chakra seeks pleasure and enjoyment, the third chakra is all about the perception of who you are.

The gift of this chakra is sensing your power, being confident, responsible, and reliable. The third chakra is the center of your self-esteem, your willpower, self-discipline, as well as warmth in your personality. The energy of this chakra allows you to transform & allows you to meet challenges and move forward in your life.

Strong third chakra reflects the ability to move forward in life with confidence and power. It reflects the ability to make conscious choices to choose and to act.

The message of the third chakra is: You have the power to choose. You can choose to achieve your life purpose or you can live out your karma or past experiences. What do you choose?

Do you choose love, light, and healing?

To balance this chakra, spend time near a fire, eat ginger and turmeric root. Affirmations to say; I CAN manifest my dreams, I am empowered and successful.

THE ROOT CHAKRA
COLOUR = RED

The root chakra is located at the base of the spine at about tailbone-level, it acts as the individual's center of emotional and spiritual balance. This includes your basic needs such as food, water, shelter, and safety, as well as your more emotional needs such as letting go of fear. When these needs are met, you feel grounded and safe, and you tend to worry less day to day.

The Root Chakra symbolizes strength and vitality. When you are grounded, you feel safe to explore other aspects of life and take on the challenge of growth. A balanced Root Chakra creates the solid foundation that is necessary for connecting with and opening the six other chakra energy centers.

An imbalanced or blocked Root Chakra will cause feelings of insecurity, restlessness and anger. It’s natural for these feelings to fluctuate, which is why it’s important to focus on taking the time to balance your first charka. An overactive Root Chakra will cause feelings of anxiety, panic and fear.

To balance this chakra – spend time in nature, sit under a tree and feel the earth beneath you, eat root vegetables.

Practice saying these affirmations while grounding yourself; “I am peaceful, I am protected, I am secure”

Let’s get acquainted with the Chakras!

Before I dive deeper in explaining each chakra on my upcoming posts, here is a brief look at what each Chakra means in your body. I will start from the base of your spine and work my way UP through each of the 7 Chakras.

The ROOT CHAKRA is associated with the colour red, symbolizing strength and vitality. This is our foundation and connection to the earth. It connects to our basic human instinct for survival, security and stability.

The SACRAL CHAKRA is the second chakra and is associated with the colour orange. This chakra links the emotional body, sensuality, and creativity. The function of the sacral chakra is directed by the principle of pleasure. It represents reproduction, joy and relationships on an emotional level, and our energy and passions on spiritual level.

The third chakra is the SOLAR PLEXUS CHAKRA which is the center of your self-esteem, your willpower, self-discipline, as well as warmth in your personality. The energy of this chakra allows you to transform & allows you to meet challenges and move forward in your life. This chakra is associated with the colour yellow.

The HEART CHAKRA is the fourth chakra and acts as an individual’s center of compassion, empathy, love, and forgiveness. This chakra is associated with the colour green and governs one’s sense of trust, fearlessness, peace, generosity, gratitude, and connectedness, as well as change and transformation, healthy boundaries, depth in relationships with others, emotional control, and love for oneself.

The THROAT CHAKRA is located at the center of the neck and is associated with the colour blue. It acts as the individual’s force of expression and individual truth, both internally and externally. A balanced throat chakra helps to set us free from the fear of judgement or need for approval from others. This chakra helps us to embrace our originality and unique individual experiences in the world.

The THIRD EYE CHAKRA is considered to be the sixth chakra in the body and is associated with the colour indigo. This chakra is located in the center of your head, parallel to the middle of your eyebrows. This chakra is linked to perception, awareness, and spiritual communication, clear thoughts, self reflection and provides visionary perspective. The third eye also helps to determine one’s reality and beliefs based on how one chooses to see in the world.

The CROWN CHAKRA is the seventh and highest chakra in our body. It is our connector to the divine and our spiritual nature. This chakra is directly aligned to seek an intimate relationship with the cosmos. It is the most spiritual in nature of all seven chakras. Located above the crown of the head, it acts as the individual’s center of spirit, enlightenment, wisdom, universal consciousness, and connection to higher guidance. In a sense, the crown chakra is our highest potential. It governs interaction & communication with the universe, one’s sense of inspiration & devotion, union with the higher self & the divine, and deeper understanding. It is associated with the colour violet.

Welcome to In2TheCalm. My name is Paola & I am a reiki practitioner. I have been studying & practising reiki healing for 5 years now & I really love working with energy & assisting others on healing their the body, mind & soul.

Reiki is a Japanese technique for stress reduction and relaxation that also promotes healing. It is administered by "laying on hands" and is based on the idea that an unseen "life force energy" flows through us and is what causes us to be alive. If one's "life force energy" is low, then we are more likely to get sick or feel stress. If the energy is high, we are more capable of being happy and healthy.

The word Reiki is made of two Japanese words - Rei which means "God's Wisdom or the Higher Power" and Ki which is "life force energy". So Reiki is actually "spiritually guided life force energy."

Allow me to help in assisting you to restore, relax & recover your body, mind & soul. Wether you need some help sleeping better, reduce some stress you may be feeling, built up anger or anxieties or even just to have some time for YOU!

Reach out to me to book your appointment. I will always work around your schedule

🙏

Love & Light
~Paola
