Guided meditation is the best way to meditate as the person or the voice guiding you will help relax your mind and body with expertise. But you can practice chakra meditation techniques at home. Here is how:

· Chakra meditation doesn’t require you to sit with legs crossed. You can either sit or lie down but your back must be straight at both positions.

· Breathe in and out deeply, but unlike other forms of meditation, you don’t have to focus on regulating your breathing.

· Inhale and feel your breath traveling up and then down your spine when you exhale. Repeat the process till you feel rejuvenated.

· Begin with root chakra. Imagine the specified color and feel its energy. When you’ve felt and visualized the energy of the root chakra, move on to the naval chakra, so on and so forth. Repeat this for each of the seven chakras.

· Separate chakra crystals are available. You can buy them and hold the crystals for focus while going through the chakras.

Chakra meditation techniques are age old and proven to take away the stress from your body and help you understand your body and energy points better than anyone else. Practice daily till you reach a state where your perception of life changes and strengthens your soul.
