Heart Chakra: Raison d’être
When I give Reiki sessions to others and even for myself, the heart is the area that is most requested for healing. While all the Chakras are important and influence one another, the heart is the center of it all.
Third Chakra: I Want to Shine!
Next in the chakra series is the power center, the Third Chakra, the Solar Plexus, Manipura, City of Jewels. The color is yellow like the Sun. How we shine as individuals within the collective.
