Chakra 7 Sahasrara: The Crowning of Higher Consciousness

The crown chakra is the energetic passageway to the Divine You.

Sahasrara Chakra relates to pure awareness, a oneness with a higher energy; an inner light.

And it is a direct connection to your Inner Guidance (or Inner Genius)

This happens easily when we sleep. It is often during sleep that we receive intuitive messages from the awakened higher consciousness.

And even more powerfully - during meditation

As the center of spirituality and enlightenment,  Sahasrara chakra is about higher consciousness and your highest dreams.

The crown chakra is governed by the pineal gland near the cerebral cortex which is the gland that regulates the sleeping/waking cycles of the body.

NOTICING SAHASRARA CHAKRA

Sahasrara chakra is the highest function of the mind

As we thinkg, so we create our lives.

Excessive energy in this chakra appears as being overly intellectual - thinking "too much"

Deficient energy manifests as apathy, spiritual skepticism.

 

Balanced Characteristics: inner peace, wisdom and presence, a sense of alignment and clarity, the gift of self healing. 

Savasana

Savasana and other forms of meditation bring this chakra into balance.

Every chakra is being actively balanced and re-energized in Savasana.

When you are completely still in meditation, completely relaxed, your chakras align naturally.

You are actually opening your Seventh Chakra at the crown of your head, and your connection to your higher self flows easily.
