August 2021, Week 1
I am that, I am
We are now at the 7th Chakra, Sahasrara., this month. Physically it is located at the crown of head and includes the pineal gland which produces melatonin, regulates our sleep cycle but also can keeps us free of disease if the pineal gland is operating in a healthy way! This chakra
connects us to the divine intelligence and the source of manifestation. It is the place of ultimate liberation.
The element is thought. It represents enlightenment and pure love, when you become one with everything. It's a surrendering completely to the spirit within, connection to the divine, self realization. Sahasrara is said to rule not only the brain, but all the major systems of the body, including the nervous system, the skeletal system and the circulatory system. It represents boundlessness and a connection with the universal consciousness, our higher power.
Boundlessness is about letting go of control. it gives us a strong sense of knowing that all will work out.
The true purpose is to become completely clear and balanced spiritually.
When I think of the 7th chakra and the lotus flower I think of total enlightenment. Working toward enlightenment may seem daunting, unrealistic, or completely beyond the scope of our radar. But regardless of whether we practice yoga to stay fit and healthy or to work toward complete liberation, we do not want to miss the opportunity to notice those enlightened moments that can come through a regular practice of insight and positive action. An enlightened moment can spring forth at any time, let this practice open you to the possibility and prime you to witness those moments of grace sprinkled throughout your day.
Use this integration to experience a vast connection between your innermost self and all things. Be conscious this month of moments of pure connection with what or who is in front of you and to enlightened moments when you sense and feel that all will work out!!!!!
