A Creative Exercise

During random times it is useful to take several deep, feeling breaths into your heart space (anahata chakra). Breathing consciously through this energy center helps to neutralize tension and transform crystallized creative energy. This simple action contributes a cleansing influence emotionally and psychically, and increases the function of this chakra.

In potential, the anahata chakra serves to radiate expansive love, the inherently limitless love of God, as soul. By consciously breathing through this vital center now and then throughout the day, it is kept relatively free of emotional constriction-armoring and is more able to accommodate the expansive expression of Love.

Practice like this:

Sit quietly, allowing thorough relaxation throughout your body.

Bring feeling awareness to your mid-chest area (the midline of the chest – breastbone center). Some find it helpful to lightly touch this space with their fingertips until their feeling focus becomes stabilized.

Breathe slowly, deeply and rhythmically, as if directly in and out through the anahata chakra. As you breathe in, draw breath and energy deeply into this center allowing expansion. Pause for a second or two retaining breath and energy. Then exhale, relaxing as love radiates, extending effortlessly from your heart space.

This simple exercise may be utilized whenever you think of it or feel the need for it. Use it as often as you like to empower this dynamic energy center and cultivate its free functioning.

Always know that you are a specialized unit of God and that your larger identity is Pure Consciousness. Always affirm: “Everything in my mind, everything in my consciousness, everything in my world is now in divine order.”
