Our Solar Plexus Center is one of the busiest in our bodies. It connects us via energetic streams or cords to those we have strong and lasting relationships with, and its health directly influences and is influenced by our thoughts. The Solar Plexus front protrudes from a core point at your spine, out from your abdomen area. Through our Solar Plexus center, our thoughts directly impact our physical health.
When the front of your Solar Plexus is clean and operating optimally, you are aware of your place among the stars. You see how your place among others is impactful, and look in reverence at the impact others (incoming energy), has on you. With this knowledge you begin to see the whole picture and understand the value of balanced systems. With a healthy front center, you are firm and confident in your assessment of the world, and that assessment is adaptable. In this state you feel emotionally balanced and create trusting and lasting relationships with others.
When the front of the Solar Plexus Chakra is clouded with low frequency, you may suffer from low self esteem, spaciness, emotional highs and lows, and over sensitivity to stimuli. This is an easy center for caregivers to exhaust when they do not take care of themselves first.
The Solar Plexus has a back center to it that is directly across from it, protruding out the back of the rib cage area. A healthy Solar Plexus back has the same positive symptoms as its front, but with a more personal and physical rather than emotional aspect. This is the center that causes back pain when you worry too much. When healthy, you respect your body, understand physical boundaries, value your health, and care well for yourself. When unhealthy, your body image is a sore spot for you, and you may put too much or too little value on physical traits in yourself or others. An unhealthy back could lead to storing excess fat and fatigue.
How to work with the Solar Plexus Chakra
Core exercises and working with the color yellow during your visualization or meditation is a great way to feed this chakra. Feed this chakra yellow light from the back, and watch a yellow light expand out from the front. Meditating with a sun in your abdomen, or meditating outside with the sun are both quick ways to feed this chakra and feel instant relief. For long term relief, chase your shadows back to your first impressions of body image and health. Assess your current value on health and your current self care practices, get enough rest, and clean your energy centers daily.
