The Solar Plexus chakra, also known as Manipura in Sanskrit, is the third of the seven primary energy centers of the body and is located in the upper abdomen, between the belly button and the bottom of the rib cage. It is associated with personal power, confidence, and self-esteem and is often represented by the color yellow. This chakra plays a crucial role in regulating willpower, motivation, and the ability to make decisions, while also influencing digestion and metabolism. When balanced, it promotes a sense of purpose, self-assurance, and emotional stability, while an imbalance can manifest issues such as low self-esteem, digestive problems, and emotional instability. A regular yoga and/or meditation practice, along with affirmations, can help maintain or restore balance to this energy center. The Solar Plexus chakra Reiki candles that I make are charged with specific intention to strengthen and heal the Solar Plexus chakra so that the recipient of the energy can feel more empowered and self-confident when making decisions in daily life.
