Hello beautiful being, Welcome to today’s episode –  a meditation to help you reconnect with your personal power. I hope that this will help spark your inner flame and willpower to go after that which you truly desire. Today we’re focusing on balancing Manipura, your solar plexus chakra.  Located in the upper belly at the diaphragm, it acts as the seat of your personal power. This chakra governs personality, ego, and identity, as well as personal freedom and authenticity. The solar plexus chakra also has much to do with motivation, willpower, and purpose, which stem from one’s sense of personal efficacy, self-confidence and how they view the self. An imbalance in the life force energy of the Solar Plexus Chakra can lead to an excessive need for control, a victim mentality, and feelings of helplessness, as well as insecurity and inauthenticity.   This imbalance can manifest physically in gastric or digestive issues like stomach ulcers, heartburn, nausea and a loss of appetite. With the more serious conditions being diabetes and various eating disorders.  So, by bringing into balance the energy of the solar plexus chakra, we reignite the sacred element of fire which alchemises and transmutes all nourishment, ideas and thoughts into physical sustenance and creation. This episode continues the special series of meditations that I have created to help bring balance and calm to your day. Look out for these every alternate week.  In this series, I’ll be taking you through 7 unique journeys. These will be centred around the bio-electromagnetic system - aka the Chakra system.  Please be sure to make yourself as comfortable as you can, before beginning today’s journey.  Making sure to sit with your back straight, and propping yourself up on a cushion or a chair if that helps. Taking a few deep intentional breaths to hone your awareness.   You can hit pause now and resume when you’re ready to begin.  I wish you an uplifting practice. With infinite light, Minal
