"True spiritual leaders will not try to hold you in subordinate patterns, but will pull you, as quickly as they can, to their own level, and push you if you are capable of going, beyond."

Creative Manifesting Through Your Chakras

It wasn't too long ago in the history of humankind that we were unaware of such things as chakras. Today the subject is almost mainstream. In the off chance you haven't ever heard of chakras, they're energy centers or vortexes that reside within and around your physical body.

Even if you aren't familiar with chakras, you've probably experienced their energy. When you feel a sense of love emanating from your heart, you're feeling the energy of the fourth chakra - the heart chakra. When you feel like someone has knocked the wind out of you by violating one of your personal boundaries, you're feeling a direct hit to your third chakra, your center of personal will.

You have chakras all over your body and even outside your body. Those chakras that are outside your body are in your other energy fields or energy bodies, such as your aura.

This article deals with only the seven major chakras that reside within your physical body. These seven chakras are vertically aligned in the center of your body, from the top of your head to the base of your torso.

The opening of all chakras faces away from the physical body. The fulcrum of the seven main chakras is connected to the central tube of life force energy, or prana, that runs vertically through the head and torso of the human body, as in the image to the right.

Chakras act as receptors and transmittors of information, which makes them powerful tools for creating - from inspiration to manifestation.

The process of creating through the chakras begins at the Crown Chakra and flows through the other six as follows:

• The Seventh Chakra: Commonly called the Crown Chakra, it's located at the top, or crown, of your head. This is where you receive inspiration for your plan or project from your guides, angels, Higher Self, and other divine sources of higher wisdom.
• The Sixth Chakra: Your Third Eye Chakra is where you receive the visual form of your inspiration and "see" it with your inner vision.
• The Fifth Chakra: Located in the center of your throat, this chakra is where you transform thought and vision into words. This is the first manifestation on the physical plane of the inspiration you received through your crown chakra.
• The Fourth Chakra: Also named the "heart chakra", it's located in the area of your heart and is associated with the feeling of love. Your heart chakra is where you feel the love and passion for your inspiration.
• The Third Chakra: This is the center of your personal will. It's located in your solar plexus and is where you generate and focus the force of your energy, or drive, as you move into action.
• The Second Chakra: Sometimes called the Sacral Chakra", it's located in your lower abdomen, a couple of inches below your belly button. This chakra is associated with family, friends, and community. Your sacral chakra is where you share your inspiration with other people.
• The First Chakra: Commonly called the Root Chakra. this chakra is located in your pelvic area and is associated with the physical world. This chakra is the pathway for birthing your inspiration into the physical world.

Here's an example of creating through the chakras. This example uses the process of manifesting a book.

• The inspiration for the book is received through your crown chakra. You experience it as a great idea that just seemed to come to you.
• With the inner vision of your third eye, you "see" what you want to write about. You may visualize the interaction of the people in your book, how they look, and what their surroundings are like.
• You then begin to transform the vision of your book into words with your throat chakra, as you begin your writing.
• The love and passion you feel in your heart chakra for the inspiration of your book fuels your desire to write it.
• With the power of your personal will chakra you move into action, as you put words to paper, research publishers and editors, and draw your design for the book cover.
• Through the energy of your sacral chakra you gather other people to help you manifest your book, such as editors, publishers, printers, and book designers.
• At last you manifest your reality by using the energy of your root chakra and your book is published!

Use the power of your chakras to help you manifest what you want to create. It's easy and powerful!

Manifesting Through Your Chakras
Use a separate sheet of paper for each chakra, inserting the name of the chakra at the top of the page. Start at your seventh chakra, the chakra of divine inspiration, and jot down your thoughts about your inspiration. Continue this process through each of the chakras. As you do this work, you'll actually be creating an energetic pathway from your initial inspiration to the physical reality of it.

Love,
Kathy

ps. Another fun and majorly creative method of using the chakras for manifesting is with a Mind Map.

This is a fun way to help those beings who share the Earth with us, but who have no voice and no vote. I just "adopted" a Bald Eagle and plan to set it on top of my highest bookcase, where it will look over the other animals I've adopted - a polar bear, a snow owl, and two wolves.

These fuzzy, cuddly critters make great gifts for the children on your Christmas list. Kids of all ages learn about the animal through colorful fact sheets and fun wildlife activities book. And when you "adopt" a toy animal, the proceeds go to help the preservation of the real animal. I just learned that the nest of the Bald Eagle can weigh up to a ton!

Founded in 1947, Defenders of Wildlife is one of the country's leaders in science-based, results-oriented wildlife conservation. They stand out in their commitment to saving imperiled wildlife and championing the Endangered Species Act, the landmark law that protects them. Defenders of Wildlife is a national, nonprofit* membership organization dedicated to the protection of all native animals and plants in their natural communities.

Essential Oil of the Month

R.C.

Winter's coming... and along with the cold weather comes colds and flu.

This essential oil blend gives relief from colds, bronchitis, sore throats, sinusitis, coughs, and respiratory congestion. It combats lung infections, decongests sinus passages, and relieve allergy symptoms.

It's a wonderful blend to diffuse during winter. I put a couple of drops on my pillow so I'm enjoying the benefits of this oil while I sleep. When I wake up my sinuses are clear and I'm breathing more easy.

Additional suggestions of how to use it:

• Apply on your chest, neck, and over sinus areas
• Place a drop on your checkbook and wallet
• Directly inhale the aroma from the bottle for fragrant influence
• Diffuse (always use a cold or misting diffuser)
• Add 2 - 4 drops to your bath water
• Use as a hot compress
• Put 4 - 8 drops on a cotton ball and locate on heater vents (not on a heater where it may catch on fire)
• Sprinkle 8 to 12 drops on your furnace filter
• Add 2 - 4 drops to a bowl of hot steaming water. Place a towel over your head, lean over the bowl of water/oil and breathe in the healing vapors.

After applying the oil, rub your hands together briskly to spread the oil on the palms of your hands and to warm it. Then cup your hands over your nose and take three to five deep breaths, bringing the molecules deep into your body.

Young Living oil is steam distilled from the leaves and stems of 100% organic plants. Unlike other brands of essential oils, there are no chemicals used in the processing of the plants. Nor are there chemicals or other ingredients added to dilute or damage the natural healing properties of the oils.
