We feel balanced, whole and healthy when the body, mind, and spirit are working harmoniously together. Healing meditations can help to reprogram any negative emotions, memories or thoughts that are festering in the subconscious and cause illness.
One of the easiest ways of using meditation to heal illness is with the Chakra System. Your body has 7 major chakras or energy centers which run from the base of your spine and up to the crown of your head. Your chakras are like energetic connections to your spiritual essence and subconscious.
Your Energy Centers
Every single chakra or energy center corresponds to a unique part of your being. The chakras can be likened to energy vortexes or funnels and each of them has a distinct color. When these energy centers get sluggish, you feel sluggish as well and over time, can develop illness. By meditating on the Chakras, you can re-energize these vortexes and restore your health.
Visualize One Chakra at a Time
As with many other forms of meditation, sit in a comfortable position, close your eyes and take a few deep cleansing breaths. Bring your attention to your root chakra which is at the base of your spine and is the color red. Visualize the color becoming brighter and its clockwise rotation becoming stronger. Spend a few minutes with this chakra before moving on to the next. Follow this process for each chakra moving from the base of your spine to the top of your head. The next chakra is located at you lower abdomen and its color is orange. Next is your solar plexus which is represented by the color yellow. Then green is your heart chakra, followed by blue for your throat chakra, indigo for your third eye chakra and finally, violet for your crown chakra.
