Chakra Opening Yoga Sequence
There are many yoga sequences that can help to open the chakras, but this is one of my favorites. It is a gentle sequence that is suitable for all levels.
1. Begin in a comfortable seated position with your spine straight. Take a few deep breaths in and out to center yourself.
2. Bring your attention to your heart chakra. Visualize a bright red light in the center of your chest. As you inhale, allow the light to grow brighter. As you exhale, allow the light to flow out to the rest of your body.
3. Next, bring your attention to your throat chakra. Visualize a bright blue light in the center of your throat. As you inhale, allow the light to grow brighter. As you exhale, allow the light to flow out to the rest of your body.
4. Bring your attention to your third eye chakra. Visualize a bright indigo light in the center of your forehead. As you inhale, allow the light to grow brighter. As you exhale, allow the light to flow out to the rest of your body.
5. Bring your attention to your crown chakra. Visualize a bright violet light at the top of your head. As you inhale, allow the light to grow brighter. As you exhale, allow the light to flow out to the rest of your body.
6. Take a few deep breaths in and out, and then slowly come to standing.
7. Bring your hands to prayer position in front of your heart. Close your eyes and take a few deep breaths in and out.
8. Visualize the chakras glowing brightly, and feel the energy flowing through your body.
9. When you are ready, slowly open your eyes and begin your practice.
