Copy of Crown Chakra
Mantra: SAHASRARA
This seventh chakra is located at the top of the head and connects us to our higher selves and the divine source of creation. When blocked, you may feel lost, frustrated, disconnected or suffering from a lack of empathy for others. When opened, you may have an overall feeling of serenity, joy and peace in your life connected to a deeper meaning. Follow the Pooja Practice to open your throat chakra like a lotus flower opening to the cosmos.
When to use
If you're experiencing a pattern where you feel restless, in a mental fog, confused about life, have a desire to oversleep, perhaps suffer from chronic tension headaches or excessive attachment to things, please draw yourself a warm bath, follow the Pooja Practice and use the Crown Chakra Bath Bomb to help you look at things from another perspective and bring balance to your chakras from your spirit to your base.
Essential Oils
Frankincense:
Used in Ayurvedic medicine for hundreds of years, frankincense appears to offer certain health benefits from improved arthritis and digestion to reduced asthma. Frankincense essential oil contains properties that reduce feelings of anxiety, stimulate the immune system, and diminish signs of aging.
Myrr:
Used since biblical times, Myrr was used often (in combination with frankincense) to help purify the air and prevent the spread of contagious diseases, including those caused by bacteria. In addition, myrrh oil is said to reduce inflammation, stimulate the immune system, alleviate pain, and promote wound healing.
POOJA PRACTICE
Once in your warm bath, release the chakra bomb in your left hand and close your eyes. Breathe deeply inhaling through the nose and exhaling through the mouth. Bring your awareness to t top of your head, visualizing a violet glow around a lotus flower that is opening. Listen in for a moment to how you want to express yourself to the world around you and chant the sacred Mantra ‘AUM’ for 1-2 minutes. When ready, open your eyes to see you are enveloped in the seed color of this chakra. Repeat aloud this powerful affirmation with eyes open or closed: “I am a divine being, love and light is my language.” May this practice help to cleanse and restore balance, bringing healing and overall well-being to you. Rest and be at Peace
Crown Chakra Balancing
This seventh chakra connects all chakras below it and seeks to free our consciousness and transcend our limitations, to go beyond our distractions to experience a limitless awakening known as enlightenment. Where chakras can be similar to our software programs, then the crown chakra represents our operating system, with consciousness as the user. When this chakra is fully open you will experience a lot of pleasure in life. You feel grateful, joyful and fully alive.
An underactive crown manifests as feelings of anger, confusion or lack of purpose in life, maybe you blame circumstances on others or express cynicism and a negative approach to life. When in excess, you could display obsessive attachment to spiritual matters while being disconnected to earthly matters. You may be walking around ‘living in your head’ too much and over thinking things. To begin to open your crown you must realize there is unity in all things, you must transcend identifying yourself with all that is. Separate yourself from attachments to things and remove this ‘decoration’ you’ve accumulated over the years. Attachment keeps us from realizing the universal and infinite truth that you are.The key is to familiarize yourself with the signs and symptoms of an under or overactive seventh chakra. Once you recognize what is amiss, the next step is learning about pooja practice to begin the journey and restore balance to your third eye chakra and its full potential, improving your overall well-being. So begin by examining the attachments that apply to you, list the reasons you are attached to them and imagine what your life would be like with those attachments removed.
Take some time to do this everyday. Observe when you get these feelings that bubble up and begin to breathe deeply with your eyes closed. Imagine being surrounded by a glowing violet light that is radiating through every cell of your body. Journal any thoughts or images that come to you. And when you are ready to connect to your true intention, draw a warm bath and use Pooja’s Crown Chakra Bath Bomb to help release it.
