The Mystic Inner Knowing is our crown chakra.
It is our higher self, our higher power.
The Crown Chakra is
selfless service - spiritual unity - idealism - understanding - devotion - faith - stillness - oneness - the divine - bliss - peace - liberation - knowing - self-realization
An imbalanced crown chakra creates feelings of
despair, loneliness, and spiritual alienation.
The biggest block of your crown chakra is refusing to
believe in higher powers.
When the crown chakra is in balance
you live your life directed by Spirit.
A balanced crown chakra brings
wisdom and intelligence with an open mind.
You are present in the moment and connected to your spirituality.
There are many ways to heal and
balance the crown chakra.
You can try one or
combine many for more beneficial results.
- Fast. Fasting opens us to self-knowledge.
- Detox. Use herbs such as holy basil, ashwaganda, fo ti, and gotu kola. These herbs help us develop spiritual consciousness.
- Take yarrow flower essence. Yarrow knits holes in your energy field.
- Clear your head through cardiovascular exercise.
- Spend time outside in clean air and sunshine.
