Integration of the Chakras

May 25, 2016
 · No Comments

I hope you all have enjoyed our preliminary taste of the Chakras!  June will bring us into summer gently with some work integrating these seven energy centers. From that we’ll springboard into different meditations, mudras, asana, breathwork and chanting – along with color therapy and aromatherapy to give you even more tools for personal balance and inner harmony.  Have a safe and happy Memorial Day weekend! Namaste.

Sahasrara Chakra

May 16, 2016

Do feel in control of your emotions, experiencing freedom of mind while fulfilling your goals in life or are you feeling alienated, fearful and lacking motivation? These sets of qualities describe the opposite ends of the energetic spectrum of Sahasrara Chakra – the gateway of the void; the area of divine consciousness waiting to be released.  Sahasrara Chakra is located at the crown of your head, the color may be violet, white, gold or silver. The right here is to know and the symbol is the thousand petaled lotus.  This week at Yoga Adobe we are focusing our practice on opening the lotus of the crown through mudra, breathwork, a bit of reflexology and, of course, yoga poses to awaken and align our energies. Our aromatherapy oil this week is Frankincense – I will share this lovely aroma with you during your final relaxation to aid you on your journey towards enlightenment!  I look forward to seeing you on the mat.

Ajna Chakra

May 9, 2016

Do you ever find yourself doubting your instincts? Can you rationalize anything? Hum, you may benefit from some work to balance your sixth Chakra – Ajna Chakra; otherwise known as the third eye.  This energy center is located in the center of your forehead and is commonly represented by either purple or indigo. The element is light rays or all of the elements that lie below the third eye.  The function of Ajna Chakra is intuition, self-mastery.  When we are balanced in this area we experience clarity, contentment and discernment.  You might be a natural healer – someone who is intuitive, insightful or even psychic.  Do you know someone who is materialistic, attached to outcome and tends to isolate?  These traits can show up when we are unbalanced in Ajna Chakra.  You can support yourself in this area through aromatherapy, wearing the color purple, or sipping herbal teas.  Try drinking sage tea for vivid dreams or peppermint tea for increased intuition.  Come practice with us at Yoga Adobe May 9th through May 12th to experience the asana that support growth in your sixth chakra and perhaps you will emerge with an enhanced sense of connection with your natural instincts and intuition.  See you on the mat!

Vishudda Chakra

The power of the spoken word – it can reflect your truth, your creativity! What happens when you repress your voice? Do you ever notice a stiff neck, sore throat or increased sense of dependency? To support your ability to speak your truth – consider wearing a blue or turquoise scarf, eat light foods such as salads, grapes or yogurt sweetened with honey.  You might diffuse some eucalyptus oil in your home or practice Sun Salutations for the throat chakra – Vishudda.  Perhaps you’ll enjoy some yoga asana that opens the throat like Camel pose or Upward Facing Plank.  Come practice with us at Yoga Adobe May 2nd through May 5th and emerge with an enhanced capacity for clear expression.
