Chakra healing meditation....What just happened?

[kritter]

Hello all - I'm still fairly new here. I started to learn meditation on my own about a year ago, but I have had a hard time meditating lately for unknown reasons. Any way, I decided that what I needed the most right now is to unblock my chakras so I found this hour long chakra healing video on Youtube. I darkened the room and got comfortable on the bed and began. All this happened just prior to posting this.

As usual, I started by getting my whole body to relax and then began to imagine the top of my head opening up from the center of my head down to the base of my skull and letting in a flood of white light that worked its way down opening up each chakra and clearing out any darkness and negativity. At the same time I was imagining that I was opening up my third eye and sending out energy to the universe and expanding my aura.

Then I had the thought that I wanted to connect to the earth and try and ground myself, so I imagined a root starting at my head running down through each chakra connecting them and out the bottoms of my feet and down through the building and deep into the earth, branching out to connect to the trees, grass and plants. I proceeded to tell the earth that I loved her and I wanted to help her heal. That I loved her waters and trees and animals living in and on her. I told her I was listening and asked the earth what I could do to help. I thought of the GMO's and started to talk to the GMO organisms and told them not to cooperate and grow the way they were manipulated to grow. That they need to return to their original state and only grow the way the earth had intended them to.

I then told the earth that I don't know why I can have such a love for her but not feel connected to the human race. I said I think it is because so many are ruining her and it hurts deeply to see it happening and that I was very sorry it was happening. Once again, I offered my help.

All of the sudden I had a bad stabbing pain in my chest and quickly realized it was my heart chakra. I thought that it must be something that needed to get out or to be released. So I gave it permission to be released. I told myself to let it go.

Quite suddenly, I literally burst into a crying fit! I was crying so hard that I was gasping for breath. As soon as I said, "let it go" it was upon me! This went on for the rest of the video till the very end, which was about maybe 10 minutes or so? I just laid there and kept telling myself it is okay, just let it all go - let it all happen. The pain went away and I stated to calm down and was over it by the time the meditation session came to the end.

I slowly got up and felt in my chest a lighter feeling, as if I had more room to breath and take deep breaths. So my question is: What just happened??? Can anyone enlighten me on what I just experienced?

You’re okay, kritter. It’s all perfectly fine. You are well.

Permit me to speak here as someone with 35+ years experience in these matters. You have chosen to seek a greater understanding, a higher level of consciousness, through the very valid and well-proven path of meditation. This is excellent and very safe. As long as you entered into meditation without the aid of drugs or other inducements, whatever happens to you in this natural state is perfectly safe and perfectly natural – if indeed somewhat surprising!

What you experienced is a physical manifestation of your naturally rising consciousness – an aspect of rising Kundalini, the ‘mother source’ of all life. Because your physical body and energy soul are inextricably linked – as the energy in your soul continued to increase and evolve it was simply necessary for your physical body to “rewire” its circuits. Bingo. Sometimes those circuits blow out. They must re-boot. They will.

It’s okay.

Relax. Sleep, eat and play as you need to. Rest, review and continue on as you feel drawn toward. You are on the right track.

The best general advice is to surround yourself with safe, good habits: nutritious food, regular hours, plenty of work and rest, good companions, good thoughts. Avoid those things you already know are detrimental: bad energy, bad vibes, bad habits, bad companions… you know exactly what these are for you. Make it easy for yourself. You will be fine. You will know.

All my very best wishes,

Selene

Hi Selene,

Thank you so much for the reassurance. I asure you, I am not into drugs or other inducements (I'm not sure what "other inducements" there is outside of drugs) I have had a lot of strange experiences since I was little but more so over the last 10 years, such as visions and or waking dreams (?) that I had been too afraid to find out about let alone tell anyone but my son about until this past year. I thought the best place to start was meditation and my blocked chakras. I had been experiencing some blocks with meditating but my persistence seems to be paying off! Thank you for the good advise. I will try to follow it. I have started a meditation journal beginning with this experience.

Good Job! It seems to me that you did exactly what you set out to do. You released some distortions in your energy system (blockages). This is healing and it is what you set out to do at the outset.

Nicely done and nice of you to write it up like this.

If I might suggest (at your option), take care not to overlook the role that forgiveness of self and forgiveness of other-selves in your healing journey. Yes there are people messing up the planet, but then there are people like you and others here who are taking steps to heal those things too.

You mentioned crying: I thought this was relevant - channeled material, so take it or leave it as you wish:


Jim: I have a question from S. What vibrational changes occur within our chakras when we cry tears of joy? Can you discuss any spiritual principles of crying in pain versus crying out of thankfulness or joy?

We are those of Q’uo, and are aware of your query, my brother. In general, the act of crying is the act of releasing intensity or pressure and clearing the energy body. As the one known as S has said, there are different reasons to cry. When one cries with joy, one is opening the energy body as a whole, for joy is the steady state of the creation of the one infinite Creator. Joy and bliss are the natural, default settings of the open heart. Consequently, crying tears of joy removes an over-activity of awareness, where the keenness of emotion becomes too much to bear and there is a great clearing of the entire energy body.

When one cries because of anger, it clears the energy centers which are affected by that anger. There are different types of anger. Generally, there is an overcharging rather than a blockage in the chakra which the tears are clearing, so it bursts the dam of intensity within an energy center, be it red, orange or yellow, and expresses that energy.

No matter how the tears are felt and from what source they come, if they are honest, spontaneous tears we would value them all as very good for balancing the energy body and releasing overactive energies that block one energy center or another, or in some cases the entire energy body, because of over-activity. It is only when tears are used as a weapon to manipulate others that tears do not constitute a release and a balancing for the energy body. In those cases where tears are used to manipulate, in point of fact, there is an increase in the over-activity or blockage of an energy center.

Thank you, Anchor. I wonder if this had anything to do with being successful with this meditation: Last week I had gone to my chiropractor and had an Emotional Coding session. It seems I had hatred for my biological father since a very young child, and feelings of helplessness from my mother since very young as well. I had a stone wall around me that reached out in all directions for 2 miles.

Yes, I realize that I do need to work on forgiveness of self and others. I'm not sure what you mean, though, by forgiveness of "other selves" Do you mean past lives? I had heard a little about reincarnation from a chiropractor I used to work for years ago. I really don't know much about it. I do not have any memories that I can remember of any past lives. But I did have this dream last week, that I had once years ago, about me living in the rural mountains somewhere. I was a teenager and the thing is, it was not me.... it was but it wasn't..... you know what I mean. In that dream I discovered I could jump from a high place and float down so as not to get hurt.

Anyway, I am very happy to be here on this forum and I got very happy when I learned of Christine's work with other forum members on healing the planet. It was why I made it part of my meditation.

Thank you for your encouraging words!

I wonder if the pain in your heart was simply a sign that you were feeling the pain of Mother Earth?

I was wondering that myself. I'm not sure if it was the Earths pain or mine or maybe an exchange of help. Or, in order for me to help like I want to, I needed to have something cleared away. Oh boy, don't get me started lol! I can be very analytical; sometimes to a fault.

Hmmm.....Interesting. I know I have more clearing to do, so I could be having more tears. But, what ever it takes to get where I need to be!

[Anchor]

No, by "other selves" I meant everyone else other than you ;)

The reason I got in that habit is that I address the paradox that we are many and one at the same time. The way we choose to experience at this time requires separation/duality, but faith in unity (or at least, that is how it is for me).

When I go through this kind of clearing I am an utter cry-baby - which is why I researched it at the time.

Still happens.

Greeting kritter,

I was deeply impressed and honored that you shared your experience. This is such a great lesson in letting go and releasing.
More then that it is a lesson you teach us, in self trust and inner guidance.

You started with one goal, and flowed with what you felt is correct. My normal meditation procedure is starting with grounding, and I was toght to do this. You teached yourself and develop your practice naturally, you let your teacher to be your inner guide. This the safest and best guide you will ever have. I wish I was as easy going as you are :hail:.

I suggest/belive that we are all one. Gaia is part of us, we are part of Gaia, when we feel her, we feel a reflection of ourselves. I see no need to repeat the great wisdom from Selene and Anchor. I have great respect to both of them.

Emotional release if part of Chakra balancing, it may come in all the emotional gamut. And can last for few days. Allow yourself to be grateful and respectful for the awesome releasing experience you manifested. You are probably ready for it and required it for your progress.

One of my teachers believes that precondition to spiritual progress is emotional clearing. You may consider this belief, and be grateful for the experience you had, as an indicator of spiritual growth.

Hope you are better, and empowered from this experience.

Joy and happiness

Hello everyone, BAsically we have two "weapons" one is freewill, which you, Krittter, used by choosing going for meditation... great; the second is that we are able to feel, so trust your feellings. The feelling of more space to breath, wonderfull...
I thank you the nice feelling i got from your post...
We´re almost there.
Love

[kritter]

Glad to hear from you Pathwalker,

I admit, it took some self goading to post; It is stepping out of my comfort zone! I think, in part, I was successful in the clearing meditation because, I am finally learning once again to trust myself instead of relying on others to tell me how, when, or what. Before I began, I realized there is no set way as to how meditation should go - it is a very personal thing, so I did, as you said in the above post, flow with what I felt was correct. There is a certain understanding that is happening, that I can't put to words.

After all the the gleaning I've done with reading all the different posts, it's nice to give, even just a little, back to others. I do feel more empowered. I feel this experience was a major breakthrough for me!

Sending you a hug - :hug:

Lol! Oh, I see, ha ha...... still learning..... still learning! ;)

Oy Anchor
Very deep and profund.
I can absolutely agree with you.
It's this duality thinking and behavior in most of the manifestations here on this planet,
wich keeps us from evolving to the next level. and beyond.
It's good to see the flare is lightened up.

And to Kritter. thank you for sharing. It made me happy to see others evolving.

Live healthy
