Understanding the Heart Chakra/Anahata
Bright and beating and the core center of all our love and compassion, the heart chakra is where our emotional energy flows. The fourth chakra and also known by the Sanskrit name Anahata, the heart space is the beautiful bridge between the lower grounding chakras and the higher spiritual chakras. This is where we will find our compassion, trust, empathy, self-care, connection to others, and our sense of forgiveness. While we often think of the word love in accordance with others in our life, self-love is one of the most important aspects we can hold. When we care for ourselves deeply, we can make decisions that serve us, we can let go of old traumas that keep us stuck, and we can nurture ourselves to have richer, sweeter, and deeper experiences in life.
When our heart chakra is blocked we may find that hold onto grudges hard and find it difficult to forgive. Our self-esteem may suffer a blow and we can feel like we don’t belong or we feel the weight of loneliness upon us. We may be depressed or anxious and this may show up in physical symptoms like heart palpitations, high or low blood pressure, poor circulation, and breathing difficulties. For those who have a heart chakra that is overactive and needs bringing back into balance, you may struggle with co-dependency, jealousy, high expectations, and being harsh in your judgement of others as a result.
Healing Crystals that Remove Blockages of the Heart
Crystals are one of the best ways to remove those stale blockages from the heart and to fill your cup right up. We normally associate the soft pink gemstones with the heart space, but glimmering green stones also connect with the heart. These stones are usually ripe with loving energy, but also weave in threads of strength, self-worth, happiness, and harmony. Take a look at these healing heart chakra stones that are going to sweep you off your feet…
