Meditation comes in numerous different styles and one of these is becoming very popular. The number of people studying Chakra Meditation is on the increase and this is mostly due to the fact that it is easy to learn. Not only is Chakra Meditation easy to learn but the techniques are easy to remember. Once people have learnt these techniques they don’t want to learn any other forms of meditation.

Chakra Meditation concentrates on different parts of our body such as your head, heart or any of your major organs. Essentially there are 7 chakras located throughout your body and these are the: navel, eyebrows or forehead, perineum, swadhisthana, throat, heart and the top of your head. The main chakra point is located at the bottom of your spine and this is reffered to as your coccyx. The chakras located within your body are all very important as they are linked to your security and health.

It is common for people who practice Chakra Meditation to learn that the Chakra is an unseen energy that is located at the centre of our nervous system which starts at the beginning of the spinal column and runs through your entire body to the top of your head. Actually most people believe that it is the biophysical energy of a person’s body.

As with all types of meditation, when practicing Chakra Meditation, there are a number of steps that you should follow, particularly if you have just started meditating or you are learning how to meditate on your own. The most important beginner steps to Chakra Meditation are:

1. Chakra Meditation can be done when you are sitting or laying down.

2. You should be comfortable whilst meditating so get into a comfortable position and adjust your clothing.

3. Close your eyes. This will help you to focus.

4. Keep your breathing deep, slow and relaxed. Don’t try to control your breathing, just breath calmly and naturally.

5. Find your spinal passage and become aware of it.

6. Start to focus on the areas of all of your chakras whilst meditating.

7. End your meditation session by chanting “Om” 3 times.

Meditation is very good for the body, mind and soul. Chakra Meditation can help to assist in increasing mental energy, particularly if you currently don’t do enough physical exercise. As you will aquire more mental energy you will be able to focus on a variety of tasks for longer periods of time and you will be able to solve more complex issues easily. This will undoubtedly help you in your everyday life whilst coping with the usual stresses of home and work. What could you do with your spare time if you were able to do all of your chores and jobs more quickly each day?

As with most things in life it is important to do things properly, so try reading some books on Chakra Meditation or consulting a professional for advice and guidance. These things will help you to achieve your meditation goals more quickly and ensure you are in the best of health whilst being on the path to enlightenment.
