Energetic chakra imbalances - II

* Observing chakras ~ Heart (4), Throat (5) 

4. Heart c. (Anahata) ~ One of the most important chakras, spreading light to the whole body – center of your being. The main organs it takes care of are: heart, lungs, arms, shoulders, hands, palms, fingers, chest, breasts, leucocytes;  This is the amazing center of love, trust, compassion, devotion, empathy, sensitivity, respect to others, tolerance, acceptance, forgiveness; all kinds of complex feelings to others are hold from the heart. The color of this special zone is emerald green (it differs in each person), different shades of green, and the more spiritually developed humans have “Higher heart” – another center above Heart in pink color (rose quartz). We have to acknowledge and realize the big importance of this chakra. If the Root is flushing away the toxins accumulated in body, this wont be possible without the work of Heart, as it has the function to allow all processes of cleansing. All purification starts with heart. For that reason you need first to cleanse your heart, then the root c. and then any other center. This chakra is of healing power, for us and others, balance, inner peace and love. All these amazing things are not easy to be achieved daily and always. So many times sadly Anahata is closed due to outer influences, holding negative emotions and negative cords with other people from the past. The main causes for the green chakra to be imbalanced are:

- suppressed negative emotions (anger, aggression to others, jealousy, envy)

- suppressed empathy –or lack of empathy to others; indifference

- lack of compassion, inability to show compassion with actions

- inability for forgive and forget (for others) 

- inability to love and show affection and love

- inability to feel peaceful (feeling anxious, restless, out of balance)

- insensitive – think skin – don’t show your emotions or lack of spontaneous reactions;

- wearing a mask, being overbearing, false, two-faces; inability or fear to show yourself

- fear to lose love and appreciation

- fear to be left from your beloved, to be alone

- fear your close people to take advantage of your feelings

- fear to be unloved from others and your family (or not accepted)

- fear of broken heart, of betrayal; distrust in your partner, friend

Heart chakra imbalance will have deep consequences in all levels, if you leave your energy unclean for longer. For this reason you need to cleanse your heart regularly –even daily with exercises, meditation and showing acts of love and compassion to others. Then your center of healing will be strong enough to take care of your all body. The best natural foods for the green chakra are: apples, pears, kiwi fruit, green onion, broccoli, cucumber, grapes, asparagus; Eat daily at least one green fruit and vegetable and you ll have brilliant health. Herbs: parsley, dill; Very important for good heart chakra is practicing yoga and breathing exercises daily. Other things to do to cleanse your heart – remove all the unwanted people and toxic relations from your life –friends, lovers; Make list of qualities that you want to seek and find in others and qualities to develop in yourself. This will be the first step to attract the positive change in your relationships and love-life. Be brave.

• Note: I want to add something about an aspect of Anahata – your love center wont be completely closed or ill” after “broken heart” –or event of disappointment, betrayal or distrust from your partner; It can be out of balance, which is quite normal for the condition you ll go through, but heart is a very strong center; with proper care and letting go of these emotions, it will be good soon. But your Anahata will be totally closed and even dark, if you let the emotions like “fear of betrayal, fear of leaving, fear of broken heart” to stay inside you for longer time – as then they can be in subconscious levels and become hidden illnesses

5. Throat c. (Vishudha) ~

One of the high chakras vibrating with light blue color (Turquoise, aquamarine, blue jade), responsible for the organs – throat, neck area, thyroid glad, mouth, tongue, gums, nose, sinuses, ears;

Each chakra is important for the whole body balance; but there are rarely people who never had problems in Thorat center. Its one of the most vulnerable chakras, and easily gets blocked. For many reasons – all issues of communication, speaking out, defending the truth, sharing in relationships, sharing your feeling and thoughts, listening to others – are related to Vishudha. Not by chance this blue center is related to cleansing – to finding your own truth, to cleansing and purification. Many times negative issues (conflict with others and yourself, unspoken words, or spoken offenses) affect directly to Throat. Common cases are illnesses like flue, cold syndromes, soar throat, breathing with nose problems. The basic energy flow defects for inactive Vishudha are:

-         suppressed self-expression and creativity

-         fear of speaking out your thoughts and feelings

-         fear of speaking the truth

-         fear to express yourself freely in social plane

-         fear of being not understood well

-         lack of communication with others

-         broken communication in relationships and friends

-         defects related to social life and your performances

-         defects related to recognition of others for your creativity

-         fear to find your true mission

-         defects in social environment, leading to hidden truths

-         unspoken views, feelings that are “swallowed” 

-         hiding the truth about something, unrevealed issues

-         fear of social performances –or public

-         dishonesty, untruthfulness, reactive, offensive behavior

The list is with defects for this chakra is long. Moreover –it can be really sensitive area connected with all other chakras. Human is designed for living in social groups – family, friends, relationships, work – actually all active life areas are in the category “communication”, “expression”, “speech”. We need to take close attention to our way of speaking with others and the way they understand and accept us as creative beings.

Recently I became ill – this was maybe flu or common cold; having in mind, that I m making regular cleansing of all my chakras and Throat. Little after I became ill, I realized the real reason of my problem. I became ill exactly the day after I broke my friendship with a woman. Our communication was broken and we had actual “unfinished” conversation, or unclear situation. When I decided to broke for my personal reasons, I realized this was the cause of my illness, exactly because of hidden and unrevealed issues between us, and broken communication since long time. If you add to that the not enough intake of daily vitamins from fruits and vegetables in winter season –you can understand how easily is to be affected the Throat. 

The blue center requires devotion for your truth and being confident to speak out your thoughts. It` s directly connected with Third eye chakra above- dark indigo blue (thoughts, mind), and from another to Heart chakra – below – true feelings. Both should be flowing to the Throat. Be your authentic self and show it without fear! Other causes for blocked Vishudha are: not good personal hygiene, unclean or packed with things environment (like children room covered with toys and stuff all around), piles of inarranged and unused things at home, not working, stuck water pipes (sink, bath tube). Now you can imagine how multiple can be the causes of imbalanced Throat chakra. Best foods for it are: chamomile, peppermint herbs, grapes, pears, kiwi fruit, avocado, lemon, lime; Honey and propolis are the most effective natural elements to help Vishudha. You should avoid – chilly and cold foods.

Energetic chakra imbalances -I

* Observing chakras Root (1), Sacral (2), Solar Plexus (3) 

   In my other articles I explain how chakras are energy wheels in our body, connecting all in one whole system. The same as in our physical body all parts are connected and work synchronically, also the energetic (ethereal) body is always connected and flowing. That means –if one of your chakra is ill –inactive or out of balance –this will affect for sure other chakras as well, in different degree.

I want to make overview of chakras and related to them causes for illness and imbalances.

Every illness, before appearing on a physical level and become visible as “illness”, start to be active in energy level first. You chakra, for example Throat –will be imbalanced for reason, then after a while the energy blockage or uncleanness will come to the “surface” of the physical body illness. That’s why daily meditation and mantras for cleansing are very advisable. Cause for the illnesses are multiple and various. I said in another text (… ) there is not just one cause that alone will provoke illness in your body. Illness is combination of energetic imbalances, that come together to higher point and appear inside you as syndromes, conditions. Basically the causes for illness are:

-         causes of space, atmosphere, home

-         causes of work space (condition, atmosphere, cleanness)

-         emotional imbalance causes

-         emotional causes and affects from relationships

-         emotional causes of inner personality conflicts

-         spiritual causes 

I`ll observe each of them in separate texts, but now I want to focus on causes for each chakra in short.

1. Root c. (Muladhara) – at the base of the spine; It is responsible for the blood circulation, blood vessels, back bone, bones, whole skeleton, muscles, red cells, feet, toes, joints, large intestine, tendons; This is basic chakra for cleansing the body from toxins and negative energy. That’s why if Muladhara is closed, it will cause easily imbalance in other chakras. The main emotional causes for imbalance in this energy vortex are:  

         - suppressed fear and fear based thoughts

         - high levels of fearfulness and insecurity 

         - suppressed compassion and feelings to others

         - over-exposed self; egoistic behavior

         - lack of persistency 

         - lack of confidence

         - suppressed painful events, memory

         - lack of earth connection and natural resources

         - receiving without giving.

Muladhara causes are among the most well spread in world of energy illnesses. They cause (and affect in final stage) abusive, aggressive, intolerant behavior, imbalance of fats – obesity, sadistic behavior, arrogance, insensitive to other humans and animal world. If your Muladhara is closed for long time, it`s very possible your Crown chakra to be also closed, due to accumulation of toxins in the body. Then your energy will become like a capsule of toxins, as you`ll be with the main two channels closed –one for receiving pure energy – Crown –another for sending the unwanted (flushing) toxins out of body. That will affect your entire system and depending on other emotional gaps and problems of outer atmosphere, will lead to many different illnesses. Be aware to keep your Root clean, in order to have strong physical body. The best remedies for fast cleansing your first chakra are: onions, garlic, cranberries, goji berry, almonds, olives, tomatoes, red apples.

2. Sacral chakra (Svadhishtana) ~ responsible for lower abdominal, womb, ovaries, sexual center, genitals, kidneys, bladder. This is a quite sensitive zone for most humans, and any higher level of toxins and unclean environment can result in imbalance in Sacral area and related illnesses. The main causes for illnesses of the sexual center are:

- suppressed sexual energy

- suppressed positive emotions (lack of joy and pleasure)

- lack of self-confidence – not trusting yourself, lack of self-love and self-acceptance;

- suppressed feeling of guilt (in relationships or with others)

- not trusting others – don’t accept others values

- being in a toxic relationship (your partner has bad influence for you)

- fear of commitment and giving trust

- fear of losing someone close to you

- fear of to leave your partner

- fear to share your inner emotions –to express love to others

- fear of criticism and to share your emotions

These are some of the most spread causes for orange chakra illnesses; the number of people with related to Sacral center imbalances is increasing in today society; this happens for many reasons, mostly due to lack of inner emotional connection between people and energetically spoiled, damaged and not maintained relationships. We still don’t know how to keep the balance in our life-relationships, and they are basis for our love-lessons in this plane. As I wrote already in my articles specially about this chakra – it`s almost always connected with the Heart chakra issues. Your sexual center will be cleaned when the main emotional reason for the imbalance is removed; Look to your relationship first and make analysis, then you ll discover what are your next steps to solve the problem. The most helpful foods from nature to help you with Svadhishtana balanced energy are: garlic, lentils, carrots, pumpkin, oranges, tangerines.

3. Solar Plexus c. (Manipura) ~ cares for the following organs: adrenals, pancreas, intestine, digestive system, liver, gall bladder. Solar plexus as visible from the name can be compared with clear yellow Sun in our body. It` s connected immensely with our own: willpower, self-esteem, clarity in situations, knowing our position in life, knowing our life missions, being confident about our mission, being responsible to take decisions, having self-discipline, being welcome, warm and open to others; understanding your self-worth, keeping your values and life principles. It`s so much important center for the humans. The imbalance in it leads to many problems and illnesses in all levels – becoming indifferent, cold and insensitive to others pain, having belly fats, being slow, lazy, inactive in fulfilling tasks; postponing obligations of every day; Manipura basic causes of imbalances are:

- suppressed confidence (low self-esteem)

- suppressed willpower (hard to implement your ideas in real)

- lack of motivation (not enough faith in your abilities)

- lack of self-control and self-connection

- not respect for your own values and principles

- laziness, inactive behavior

- doubtful, insecure in your abilities

- unable to take decisions or to act properly in hard situations

- unable to meet challenges in life

- difficulty to make choices important for your life

- inability to act in honorable way – to keep your decisions, to be strong in what you think and not affected by others

These are some of the main causes ,but they could be so many. Manipura energetic gaps will create problems in your digestive system and liver. If you are unable to trust yourself and with low-confidence, this will affect in your liver too (and cause excessive alcohol consumption, which will close the circle of illness for you Solar Plexus). All kind of drugs and alcohol affect this sun-area in your body and can have fatal end. This is also the chakra of freedom and how much you can feel free in life – to enjoy and follow your passions. Manipura is also related to cleansing energy from self-forgiveness, and releasing feeling of guilt. Foods that will return your balance are: lemons, ginger, celery, banana, corn, pears, potatoes, saffron, pineapple.
