Solar Plexus Chakra

(Please see the earlier post titled "The Basics of Chakras" for a basic understanding of the Chakra system)

Located between the Naval and Diaphragm - the Solar Plexus Chakra is the gatekeeper between the Sacral and Heart chakra. This Chakra awakens the fire within. This chakra protects and balances our power within.

This is where self restraint, self discipline and self control come from. Stand up for your truth and show up to your life, as tests come up in our life, this is where we get the courage to take the test head on.

An unbalanced Solar Plexus Chakra comes from the over or under use of will power.

• Overuse - Everything is a competition. Conflicts abound and everything is a test or a problem. One who fears not being in control. Huge Ego

• Underuse - When one is afraid to say "no". Willing to do things you don't really want to do. Are you in service or are you a servant?
