Life gets busy and there is no avoiding it. Even if you happen to be in a job or own a business that you love there will still be a lot of things that have to be done and deadlines that must be met.
Pushing yourself in trying times can create a sense of resentfulness towards your work, which is really the last thing you would want on top of the stress that you are suffering. You are creating a “blockage” inside of yourself.
Why do you think most people have heart attacks, chest pains and panic attacks when they are under so much stress? Besides from eating poorly and neglecting yourself during these times, your body is also trying to warn you. All of these “attacks” are centred near your heart chakra and that is no accident.
If you love what you do, don’t get caught up in the negative side of the necessary hard work, you block off the love that you would normally be feeling for your work. If you don’t happen to love the type of work you do then perhaps the problem is that you are blocking off other areas of your life that are a source of love, maybe your family and home or even yourself.
Take some time out for yourself. Meditation might just be an essential key for you to move forward, here is a very simple one for “Love”. Just as the word is, it appears to be simple and yet it can be so powerful.
If you feel the need to light candles, make sure they are white or pink and if you would like to burn incense use cinnamon or rose.
Centre yourself and clear your mind. Once you have managed that, then for a few minutes think of what you truly love and feel that love growing in your chest over your heart chakra. When you are ready, let go of your thoughts and just focus on the feeling in your chest.
If you would like to use sound to re-balance this chakra you can say “ah”. Take a deep breath and as you exhale say “aaaaaahhhhh”. Should you be are worried about being heard you can simply think about the sound, it still works though might not be as effective. You can also use today’s mantra if you wish to.
If you are into gem stone and crystal healing than you can place your favourite stone over your heart chakra, the most ideal gem stone for this is a rose quartz.
The meditation can last just a few minutes, remember the objective here is not to see how long you can meditate for but to centre yourself and bring more love into your life.
When you feel you are ready, slowly come out of your meditation and take a deep breath, as you breathe out feel yourself becoming lighter. Try and do this everyday and remember this is yourself that you are looking after, and no matter what you do or what you have faced in your life, you deserve to love yourself!
Feel free to say the below mantra as much as you like. If you need to take a few seconds out of your hectic schedule, close your eyes and say it to yourself a few times and then take a deep breath.
Mantra of the day:
I always have time for me!
Bright Blessings
