Let's dive in & learn about your Solar Plexus chakra!
🟡 What does an underactive Solar Plexus Chakra mean? 🟡
The Solar Plexus Chakra is located in the upper abdomen, in the stomach area. It is associated with our personal power, relating to our confidence & self-esteem.Â
An underactive Solar Plexus Chakra can manifest physically in many ways; eating or digestive disorders, food allergies, diabetes or chronic fatigue. Mentally, stress has the upper hand & we lack energy, unable to think clearly & we can feel powerless.
When the Solar Plexus Chakra is balanced the person will exude confidence without being arrogant, feeling playful, spontaneous & a warmth in their personality. A balanced Solar Plexus allows us to make decisions more easily & meet challenges head on.
There are many ways to balance the Solar Plexus:
- As this chakra is heavily influenced by the element of fire, getting outside in the sun can help restore balanceÂ
- Doing a Solar Plexus guided meditation
- Sunbathing (with SPF of course)Â
- Taking a warm bath with essential oils
If you are going to chill out in a warm bath, use essential oils such as clary sage, juniper or geranium.
Our favourite crystals to work with for a balanced Solar Plexus Chakra are Golden Healer, Tigers Eye, Citrine & Honey Calcite.
🟡 What is an overactive Sacral Chakra? 🟡
The Solar Plexus Chakra is the center of our self-confidence & personal power so an overactive Solar Plexus can manifest as being arrogant, overly aggressive, self-centered, competitive & the need to be right.
Those with an overactive Solar Plexus tend to dominate & suppress others in order to be in control of every situation. In order to heal & balance the Solar Plexus we must find the balance between too much energy & not enough energy.
- We recommend trying a new activity - step outside of your comfort zone & find something that makes you feel good on a consistent basis
- Meditation never fails as a method to restoring balance to your life - practice a Solar Plexus guided meditation
- Repeating positive affirmations throughout the dayÂ
- Connecting with the colour yellow, wearing something yellow or eating yellow foodsÂ
- Yoga poses that strengthen the abdomen & directly target the Solar PlexusÂ
We recommend using any or all of the following - Golden Healer, Tigers Eye, Citrine & Honey Calcite.
