Do You Know How To Manage Your Human Energy System? Balancing Your Solar Plexus Chakra

Do you find yourself always giving in to others even though you would like to be assertive? Are you anxious about your feelings of being powerless, being alone, confused or worrying about what others think?

The 3rd energy center or your Solar Plexus Chakra is found below the sternum/breast bone and above the navel. Digestion is the main function of the solar plexus chakra. These are some of the physical aliment associated with this chakra – digestive problems, food allergies, diabetes, gallstones, ulcers, liver complaints.

Psychologically the Solar Plexus is responsible for digesting emotions. Anger usually hides pain, and as a result hides the inner power within you. This powerful energy is held prisoner when the emotions are suppressed, which must be released if you are to want to utilize and connect to the inner power of the Solar Plexus to achieve your goals.

Old stagnant emotions create a great deal of inner conflict if they are not released. They cause a lot of confusion that is discharged if you do not deal and resolve the encounters or events that take place in your life.

The Solar Plexus defines your self esteem and is all about your power and identity. The energy of your third chakra was developing around the age of 5 and you needed to know how unique you were. You had to learn that you had power and that you could use that power by asserting yourself when you needed to be heard.

If your parents did not assure you by reminding you that you were powerful, that you could do whatever you set your heart on, that you were given wonderful gifts and talents to fulfill your purpose here on earth then your third chakra would be underdeveloped. If this was the case in your life it is never late for you to validate yourself.

This is the last of the personal chakras, and from this chakra we move to the heart chakra which is the first of the universal chakras making this chakra an important place of transition.

Here are some ways to bring your Solar Plexus chakra into balance:
• Release the energy of the emotions that you are experiencing as they surface up, by using some release techniques.
• Yellow is the color that is associated with this chakra so use some yellow to balance it.
• Essential oils: Rosemary, Juniper, Geranium, Peppermint, black pepper, Ginger
• Gems: Citrine, tiger eye, topaz
• Place your hand on your 3rd chakra just above your belly button and below your sternum while repeating these statements:
I choose to release all my fears and struggles that have to do with power and
struggle.
I fully step into my power now.
It is safe for me to be powerful.
I am using my power to better my life and all of mankind.

    Thanks once again Brenda. I am totally enjoying this series on Chakras. It is filling in some blanks re: my level of knowledge and the information is very practical. One of the steps I will continue to take is “just saying no” to situations and people that do not enhance my life. I did so last week with someone and felt very powerful as a result.

    Over and out for now - hope all is well

    Hi Leesa,
    Thank you for your feedback and for sharing it with all of us.That in itself is a huge and powerful action step.

    I am so glad that you are enjoying the series on the Chakras, and for taking such a big step in ” just saying no”. This is a way of not giving your power away. It’s also a way of being authentic because you are speaking your truth.

    Sending you love and many blessings,
    Brenda
