Chakra Cleansing -The Ultimate Workout!

Our physical, spiritual and mental health are closely intertwined. Our chakras are an important part of our being and are essential to our good health and like the rest of us; they are affected by external factors, whether environmental or spiritual. To stay in good health, you need to take care of all of you - chakra cleansing is an important part of caring for yourself. When your chakras are working properly, you?ll have the ideal energy flow through your body and your entire being will benefit.

Every part of our being depends in every other part, meaning that chakra cleansing is every bit as important to your health as is eating well and getting regular exercise!

These are some of the chakra cleansing techniques which have been used for millennia:

*Smudging: This is burning herbs and plants to clear away negative energies which can block your chakras. White sage is an especially potent herb for this. Burn some white sage in a room with the doors and windows closed for a few minutes, letting the smoke fill the room.

*Auric brushing: Brushing your chakras with gems and crystals can cleanse your chakras; however, you should leave this to a professional. Improper auric brushing can do more harm than good.

*Diet and rest: A nutritionally balanced healthy diet that includes lots of water and fresh vegetable and fruit juices is important. You should also be sure to get enough sleep every night; these steps will keep your chakras in better shape, since your mental, spiritual and physical health are all dependent on each other.

*Your chakras will remain clearer if you get regular exercise and practice breathing techniques.

*Nature: Spending some time in nature can be an effective method of chakra cleansing. Get out into the countryside and observe the plants and animals even if you live in a city, you can do this at a park; the important thing is to make some time to experience the natural world.

*Color therapy: Each chakra is connected to a different color. Visualizing or looking at the colors which correspond to your different chakras can help start the process of chakra cleansing.

*As Albert Ayler once said, 'Music is the healing force of the universe'. Music can help in chakra cleansing, activate your chakras and stimulate the endocrine system to function better.

*Mental Exercise: By keeping your mind active and endeavoring to learn new things, your chakras will stay more active and free of blockages.

*Make a little time every day to meditate and reflect on your day. This gives you perspective and is a very effective method of chakra cleansing.

*Love yourself: You cannot give or receive love until you first love yourself; love causes the production of brain chemicals which produce a sensation of well being and is also healthy for your chakras.

*Stay in tune with your emotions: You need to be able to accept and understand your emotions and when necessary, communicate your feelings to other people. When you repress your emotions, you allow negative energies to build up and cause chakra blockages.

*Use your creativity. When you allow your creativity to have a place in your daily life, you keep your energy flowing properly and will start enjoying your life more.

*Past lives: You need to be open to your past lives, especially to the opportunity to learn about yourself through them. The self awareness and sense of purpose this can give you will make all of your other chakra cleansing techniques more effective.

*Be the change you want to see in the world: Live your life in accordance with the principles of honesty, respect and trust.

*Prayer: Like meditation, prayer can quiet your mind and the more quiet you become, the more you can hear; this can open your mind and keep your chakras in balance.

All of these chakra cleansing techniques can work for you and should be practiced regularly. It may not happen overnight, but when you keep up using these chakra cleansing methods, you'll start to see the benefits and have a higher quality of life.
