The HEART CHAKRA

DEFINITION:

Identified by Yoga as the center of our Beliefs, Commitments and Ideals, the Heart Chakra houses all of our "heart-felt" issues; from brotherly Love to Romantic Passion and even Patriotism and Ambition.. EVERYTHING in fact that we "hold dear to our hearts." As is long-known to Asian philosophies, the Heart Chakra ALSO houses our Universal Mind.. the 'still and quiet voice' of conscience and Karmic Truth, which we can train ourselves to hear speaking anytime we set-aside all of those personal passions and feelings long-enough to LISTEN within that Silence Of Mind called MEDITATION.

This Chakra connects the body to "THE CAUSAL PLANE" of Asian Metaphysics, the 'occupant' of which is our ETHICAL SELF or CONSCIENCE, identified by the ancient Egyptians as "Ab" or "Hati" the Inner Heart, considered to be both the source of our Viability or Life-Force as well as the fountain of 'good or bad thoughts'.. where we go to exercise our ethical development. Closely tied to the concept of Karmic Law (or getting one's Just Desserts for our actions,) the Heart Chakra is also the 'place' we each come-to in order to 'rehearse' or plan-out our personal development and lifestyle changes.

This Chakra is nourished by the following two Acupuncture Meridians:

HEART (Leo) MERIDIAN

The two points marked by an 'x' in the drawings above are Acupressure Massage Points you may use to help balance the energy in this Meridian. A few minutes of light massage here can help a lot! NOTE that if both points on both arms or legs are equally VERY painful to massage, you may have an energy-imbalance too strong for massage-therapy to solve; a visit to an Acupuncturist or your primary Physician is recommended.


SMALL INTESTINE (Virgo) MERIDIAN

The two points marked by an 'x' in the drawings above are Acupressure Massage Points you may use to help balance the energy in this Meridian. A few minutes of light massage here can help a lot!
