Chakras: How to strengthen them and feel energy in you again

The word "chakra" comes from Saskrit and means "wheel" or "turntable". You can imagine them as energy vortices, which are sometimes more active and sometimes less active. Chakras are something like connecting points of body, mind and soul, because all our energies converge here. They influence your perceptions, feelings and decisions. But also your Health and well-being. In this article, we would like to show you how to strengthen your chakras, feel the energy within you and get it flowing.

What are chakras?

In yoga, this refers to the subtle energy centers of our body. As soon as we are born, we interact energetically with the world. Your body has its own energy and radiates it. But it also absorbs subtle information from the environment.

When one of our chakras is imbalanced, it is always noticeable in our lives - both on an emotional and physical level. For example, headaches, back pain, a stiff neck, stomach pain, a twinge in the heart... At the same time, the chakras are also a key to resolving our emotional issues and blockages.

When you open and balance your energy centers, you understand more and more who you really are, how you are Wishes and put plans into action.

What influence do they have on us?

With their energy, chakras influence your health and well-being, but also your feelings, thoughts and decisions. All aspects of human life are reflected in them. No chakra stands alone, because all things in our body are connected and interact.

Strengthen your third chakra - the abdominal power!

Cross your heart: how often are you in your head? How often do you find yourself worrying about so many things? And often totally unnecessarily... We would like to help you to better and better succeed in switching off your head and focusing on your belly. The third chakra, the subtle energy centre in your belly, normally gives you self-confidence and willpower.

However, when it's blocked, you feel insecure and anxious. Do you find it difficult to pursue your goals consistently? Are you easily unsettled or swayed from your path? Strengthen your third chakra and get your power back.

Chakra exercise

To strengthen your third chakra, we would like to give you some tips. This is how you get your power back:

  • On Youtube there are various Solar Plexus Chakra Meditations, also from Coach Laura Malina Seiler.
  • Carry gemstones that strengthen and balance the solar plexus chakra. Citrine or amber are super suitable.
  • Bergamot, lemon, grapefruit, lemon grass, chamomile and benzoin - these oils support your third chakra. You can vaporize one of these oils in a fragrance lamp or use a few drops as a bath additive.
  • Yellow foods such as corn, yellow lentils, chickpeas, fennel, lemons, ginger water, turmeric and pineapple contribute to a harmonious third chakra.
