Hello everyone! This week we climb up the chakra chain, making our way to the middle of the body with the Solar Plexus and Heart Chakras.

Solar plexus

The Solar Plexus Chakra is located between the navel and solar plexis (which is right under your rib cage). It represents Center of personality, identity and ego, vital energy, will power, sense of self, confidence, personal warmth.All body parts affected with this Chakra are:digestive system,pancreas,metabolism. These body parts will be in some sort of distress if unbalanced.


How can you tell if your solar plexus is out of balance? Overactive you will have obsessive behaviour and uncontrolled emotional outbursts. Blocked or underactive brings on stagnation or weak decision making and depression. Physically, you will feel sluggish, not wanting to do the things you love. Lack of wanting to spend time outside of your home/bedroom.


Okay now that you have an idea on what to look for if your solar plexis is out of balance, What can you do to fix it? First I would like to point out that the color of this chakra is yellow, the sun is yellow. Spend time in the sunshine. Even if you spend 5 min a day outside, you will soak up all the yummy sun rays needed to boost your mood. Healthy diet and healthy eating habits (like not eat before you go to bed) and resting. I know the last one is weird to see when lack of movement is a "symptom". The point is to get quality rest. You ever have a night where you toss and turn, waking up every hour, on the dot? 😑 Yeah not good. Find ways to get the sleep you need, Cut out screen time an half to an hour before bed. Take a warm bath before bed. Massage you legs, feet, arms and hands before bed. That helps move your fluids in your out extremities.


Other ways to help balance your Solar Plexus Chakra are eating yellow foods like, summer squash, bananas, lemons (lemonade is the way I would eat them), so on. You can also do a rebalancing technique (which I wrote in depth about in the last blog. Check it out here) with yellow stones like, Citrine, topaz, yellow jade, any yellow stone will work. Its all about color coordinating.

Heart Chakra

The Heart Chakra is located... yeap right were everyone thinks their heart is, right in the middle of your chest.(your heart is generally to the left a bit). Its represents, love, compassion, forgiveness, understanding and good will. The body parts affected by this chakra are: Heart, blood circulation, lungs, breasts, lymphatic system. These body parts will be in some sort of distress if unbalanced.


How can you tell if your heart chakra is unbalanced or blocked? You are angry, have extreme jealousy, fear intimacy, you are suspicious and paranoid, you feel your in isolation, all alone. Physically you could have breathing problems, congestion in lungs, blood (like a blood vessel blockage) and even lymphs system can be stagnant.


How can you can you get the Heart Chakra back into balance? Show forgiveness to yourself and others. There were times in your life that you regret, its okay. You can't live in the past, it no longer exists and the only way you are going to move on, is by forgiving the issues and the people that caused it. Practice kindness and acceptance. This one I like alot I try to practice this often. If you ever come down to my shop you will be greeted with a bright hello and a smile (really, it's under the face coverings). I chose to accept everyone as they are. Your into spiritual stuff, awesome! not so much awesome! Not at all, awesome! Love to laugh, well you came to the right place! We all have our qualities and to be jealous or paranoid about them, is just hurting you and the ones around you. LET IT GO!

Yeah I did just make you start singing this song. Mwahahahaha 😆 (my daughter was to old when this came out, so I am immune)


Okay, other ways to clear and balance out your Heart Chakra are eating green colored foods like broccoli, spinach, wheatgrass (great in smoothies) and leafy lettuce. You can also do a rebalancing technique (which I wrote in depth about in the last blog. Check it out here) with green colored stones like: Emerald, moss agate, green aventurine, green jade, peridot and any other green stone.


Alright guys and gals, that is the solar plexus and heart chakra ways to balance and how to know when you are unbalanced. Stay tuned for next week when we talk about the Throat Chakra and Third eye Chakra.


Until next time. Bright blessings and remember acceptance is key to opening your and others heart. -Sarah 🧚🏻‍♀️💋
