Open Chakras


It is so easy to find chakra cleansing and balancing, guided meditations on YouTube that I thought I would share with you the desired results of the meditations rather than the practice.
I like Crystal Beach Chakra Healing Meditation as it is easy to follow, and I like the man's voice! So, you could try that one. The voice in a guided meditation can make it or break it so that's a very personal choice.
I find it quite strange that there are so many meditations but few explanations as to the desired effect of the practice. Again, you can Google galore and research the benefits of chakra healing, so I am going to give a bite sized guide as to why it's worth taking the time to relax for twenty minutes or half an hour and feel so much better for it.
If you look at the picture (above) you can see the chakras, energy centres, in the body. We start at the root, at the base of your spine and work upwards.

The Root Chakra.
Red. 
Survival
When the root chakra is open and balanced, we feel safe and fearless.

The Sacral Chakra
Orange
Desire
When this chakra is open and balanced, we feel a sense of abundance, well-being, and pleasure.

The Solar Plexus Chakra
Yellow
Willpower
When this chakra is open and balanced, we feel worthy and confident.

The Heart Chakra
Green
Love
When this chakra is open and balanced, we feel love, joy, and peace.

The Throat Chakra
Blue
Expression
When this chakra is open and balanced, we can express our feelings and our truth.

The Third Eye Chakra
Indigo
Intuition
When this chakra is open and balanced, we have clear thoughts, and our intuition awakens.

The Crown Chakra
Violet
Insight
When this chakra is open and balanced, we attain universal love and wise understanding.

Please don't be put off by the word, 'meditation' or think you must have a certain type of personality to practice, even if you simply relax for half an hour while you listen to the guide, you will have slowed your chattering brain and chilled out, which can only be a good thing.
You can also find overnight meditations if you are too busy to give up any time in the day, I must warn though, that these can make you sleep so deeply that you might miss your alarm or be none too pleased to have a toddler climb on your face at the crack of dawn, shouting " WAKE-UP it's MORNING TIME AGAIN!!!!"

Brexit Briefing: Florence.

artycelia   I am quite dreading the speech in Florence on Friday. I hope Boris is gagged and chained while Mrs May spouts another load of silly meaningless slogans and soundbites. ' We will survive and thrive following our departure from the European Union ' 'We will continue to have a close relationship with our European neighbours.' ' We will be enjoying new trade deals outside of the EU ' 'We are stuffed, can we call the whole thing off?' Boris wriggling out of his chains yelling, 'bus, BUS, what about the BUS? ' Ho hum. I am sure the EU are shaking in their shoes. What an embarrassing mess we have gotten ourselves into.

Update: April 2024

This is a painting of, erm, the cancerous tumour that I found in my breast in 2021. It's gone now. I felt much better after the painting was completed, sort of serene. Despite the brutal treatment that is chemotherapy, I have depicted the cancer as drifting away, parts of you do drift away while going through treatment, and some parts return while others do not. That's how I feel anyway. I moved house last year. My rented house was too big with just me in it. It was fine when occupied with my daughters, a grand-daughter, a grand-daughter's dad and my lovely dog, but people grow and need to move on. My dog reached the end of his road. The day I lost him was the saddest day of my life. I know I probably shouldn't say that but he was deep in my heart and I loved him unconditionally. I won't ever get another dog, that 'going to sleep' business is a train wreck, one that you are watching and also feel responsible for, even though you are not. I am now living with...

Gallery Today: Gaza

  The first painting is my interpretation of a Miro. The second painting is my interpretation of the war in Gaza, based on a painting by Fernand Leger c 1927. It's maybe easier to put one's thoughts into a painting, in this one, the flag of Israel bleeds into Palestine, land is stolen, territory is taken, people are annihilated. I find it horribly, well horrible, that Netanayu seems to be following in the footsteps of the very person who set out to destroy his people. I just cannot understand how the world can step aside and allow this genocide. Sometimes I just feel the need to paint a picture.
