Anahata Chakra (4th Chakra)

m the active fiery solar plexus, we are thrust into a new and different realm. From the realms of the body and manifestation, we move into the softer touch of spirit. From the focus on the self and its desires and actions, we embrace a larger pattern, and dance our small part within the greater web of relationships. We transcend our ego, and grow toward something greater, deeper, stronger. As we reach for the heavens, we expand.” Anodea Judith As we rise in our ascent up the chakras, we continue to move into more subtle realms. This movement to the fourth chakra of the heart is a big jump from the ego-centric nature of the lower chakras. Once we have met our human needs – safety, pleasure, passion and willpower –and we are no longer distracted with merely surviving, our energy and awareness is free to move into the more spiritual realms, and our focus on self begins to soften as we expand our awareness to all that is. Themes we explore in this episode include: unconditional love, breath, softness, balance, expansion, unity.
