Hello! Meditation on the heart chakra helps to achieve harmony in life, intimacy in relationships, raise mood and energy levels for achievements and fulfillment of one’s needs.
She is called Anahata and she is the fourth in a row. It is the concentration of love, tenderness, sincerity, fidelity and selflessness. Thanks to her, you will feel unity not only with nature, but also with the world around you as a whole. Let’s take a closer look at what you get by opening it.
What is responsible for?
- Constructive and healthy expression of feelings. That is, it allows you to become more responsive, sympathetic, alive, in the end, with different emotions that correspond to the circumstances.
- Openness. It is common for people, fearing to get hurt and feel pain, to close themselves in, not trusting anyone in the world. But this quality usually repels others, because the unwillingness to be real in contact makes it meaningless to linger in it.
- It is responsible for the interaction between the three lower chakras and the three upper ones. Since it is in the middle, being the center, it makes it possible to control the processes of awareness and distribution of energy of the whole organism.
- Maturity. No matter how smart a person is, if he is not able to give an account of his actions, anticipate events and rely on the knowledge and experience already gained, he cannot be called mature. By the way, men can take this test.

Meditation
Ball
Sit in a comfortable position and close your eyes. Try not to think about anything, just watch the flow of thoughts that rush through your head. Also watch your breathing.
Take a slow deep breath in through your nose, and the same slow breath out through your mouth. Only the mouth should not be strained, but slightly parted lips, let out the air.
When you feel and understand that you have relaxed enough and focused on inner sensations, try to imagine how a green light comes out of the chest area where Anahata is located.
It forms into a ball that spins and literally envelops your body. You feel warmth on your hands, face, legs and other parts of the body that are in contact with this green energy.
Stay in such a relaxed and pleasant state for about five minutes, just focus on internal sensations, you should not look at the clock and note the time. So you will go astray, and all efforts will be in vain.
So, after you realize that enough minutes have passed, visualize how this ball returns back to the heart chakra area.
Feel how the energy spreads throughout the body, after which, inhaling, open your eyes. Just do not immediately get up and take on some business. Give yourself the opportunity to be in this state.
For the best effect, you can find special music for opening Anahata, or just some meditative music that does not annoy you.
Nature
You can do the same as in the previous version, only present a slightly different picture. For example, that you are walking across the field and feel that you are cold.
The cool wind is quite unpleasant and you are looking for shelter. In the distance you see a small church, go to it. You open the door and go inside. It’s very warm, light and cozy. You are instantly seized with a state of peace.
You look at the stained glass windows and the paintings on the walls. After, having warmed up, you look out into the street, and there it is sunny and warm. You continue on your way, already in a joyful mood.
