Living in the Light - The Crown Chakra

The highest of frequencies is love and every day we get to choose.  Will we choose to embody the truth of who we are or will we choose to reside in the darkness that co-exists with the light.  Only light can outcast darkness so you must see the darkness for what it is and choose to live, breathe and have your being in something far greater than yourself. Ultimately at the end of the day this is union and oneness with your highest self.  God.   

God is within you and you essentially are a divine spark from the great almighty. Discovering this gift and hidden treasure of love nestled within your own heart and soul is the most beautiful discovery known to man.  This greatness knows of no lack or separation.  It only knows the truth and the truth is there is only love, abundance, peace, joy, energy, health, creativity, free will, and positivity, but sometimes that can be covered up and overshadowed by all the other stuff we are carrying that could be blocking our divine flow and connection with our true self.

Anything other than love is an illusion and we get to decide if we are going to choose to embody a spirit of fullness or if we are going to go against ourselves and reside in a space of fear.  This is why a spiritual journey of self-discovery is unique and individual to every single person on the planet.  There is no right way or no wrong way.  There is only divine perfection getting you to the ultimate goal in life which is love.  It’s a beautiful discovery of self-realization, self-love and self-discovery.

When your Crown Chaka is blocked you essentially do not know who you are.  There is only pain, suffering and at times it can feel like you are losing your mind, which in a sense you are.  The mind of thought and constant fixation and identification with thoughts can lead you to a space of hell.  But when we overcome the mind and body we are able to tap into our heart and soul transcending who we essentially are and choose to fully embody the unseen world of our existence.

Awakening to our own divine truth can be a scary experience for some because the world as we know it, comes crashing down and all of our limitations, negative though patterns, negative limiting beliefs, toxic traits, past traumas, and old patterns are brought to the surface.  We must look deep within ourselves to dispose of all the lies so we can walk in our truth.  This type of shadow work can be dark, lonely, upsetting, disappointing, triggering, and can be filled with guilt, shame, remorse, fear, regret, anger and extreme sadness, but this process is necessary.  It’s a cleansing of your spirit and returning it fully to a space of pure wholeness, light, and love.  Both the darkness and the light will continue to co-exist at times, but you have the power within to turn on the light and outshine any darkness that may try to consume you.

When your Crown Chakra is blocked here are some signs:

• Lack of purpose in life
• Forgetful
• Disconnected from yourself
• Close minded and stuck in your own way
• Cynical
• Excessive isolation
• Loneliness
• Critical of others
• Unable to connect with others
• Frustrated with life
• Lack of trust in yourself and others

When you have a balanced Crown Chakra you will have surrendered to your highest self so you can reside in a space of harmony and oneness with all of life. 

• You are spiritual
• Enlightened
• Focused
• Creative
• Have a sense of humour
• Divine inner peace
• Connected to your souls purpose
• Trusting
• Connected to yourself and others
• You are calm and serene
• Open to everything
• Certain of yourself and who you are
• Thankful
• Passionate
• Wealthy
• Rich
• Focused
• Excited
• Enthusiastic
• Happy
• Content
• Confident
• Rested
• Beautiful
• Full of love

This 7^th chakra is located at the top of your head and once this energy centre is open you will ultimately be your happiest and healthiest self for you are no longer identified with your mind or body.  The crown chakra doesn’t fully develop until the ages of 43 – approximately 50.  Even then, not everyone will open their crown chakra in their lifetime.  Many are meant to walk through life asleep and unconscious and there is absolutely nothing you can do about it for that is their life path. 

After all of the other 6 chakras are open and balanced it is only then that the crown chakra can open. 

Root Chakra

Sacral Chakra

Solar Plexus

Heart Chakra

Throat Chakra

Third Eye Chakra

Even if enlightenment doesn’t occur, there are still practices that help open and heal the crown chakra to create more love, oneness, and divine connection in our lives. 

So what can you do to open yourself up and get the energy flowing?

1.  Accept what is.  Accepting what arises in your life or what has or is happening right now in your life and being okay with it allows you to merge with the flow instead of fight against it.  Affirm all is well, all is perfect and everything is working out for me.  Sometimes in our life we have to go through a series of events and challenges so that we can be the person we were created to be.  Despite doing everything right it could have turned out wrong and accepting this as a lesson and not a failure is everything.  You needed whatever it was that was put in your path for a reason.  It is what it is, and making peace and accepting this will make your life even more peaceful. 
2.  Let Go. You have to be willing to let go of something that is causing you pain so you can make room for the new to come into your life.  You have to be willing to let go of anything or anyone you’ve outgrown.  You have to be willing to forgive.  You have to be willing to let go of the need to know the outcome or to control everything.  Be okay with not knowing the outcome and trust that once you let go of something, and greater amounts of energy and new ideas will come to you.  Don’t hold onto anything so tightly or try too hard to make anything work.  Sometimes things aren’t meant to work out, but they are simply stepping stones necessary and needed to get you to where you want to be. 
3.  Eat how you want to eat and listen to your body. Allow yourself to let go of rules and diets and simply allow yourself to be free and eat whatever you are needing.  This doesn’t mean a complete free for all and just eat anything and everything. That obviously can lead to obesity, heart disease, and health problems and lead to further health complications down the road.  This simply means to truly listen to your body and give it what it is needing.  Usually that is healthy foods such as fruits, veggies, lean protein sources, nuts, seeds, healthy oils, healthy carbohydrate and healthy fats...and of course your favourite treats and indulgences in moderation.  Your body is a temple.  Treat it like one.
4.  Cry and grieve. In order for your new life and your new creation to come into form you will need to let go of your old life and your old form.  Don’t look back .  You are becoming someone you’ve never been before and living life in a way you’ve never experienced before, and this can feel new and weird at first.  This new version will be entirely different and a whole lot better.  Trust the process of unlearning and undoing and when tempted to go back to the old, hold yourself back and stay strong in moving forward.
5.  Yoga and Meditation. During this transformation period you may find yourself extra tired or just craving something a little more slower paced.  Practice yin yoga and allow your body to rest in poses like frog pose, butterfly pose, resting belly post, and child’s pose. Use your meditation time to truly listen and nurture yourself and ensure you are taking care of yourself the way you truly deserve.  During your meditation time you can envision a bright white light circling your face and above your head.  Breathe into this light and let it circle around your entire head.  Fill every ounce of your body with light and breathe into love and allow that love to wash over you.  Know that you are divinely protected, safe, and well taken care of.  As you shed all of the other layers of yourself that weren’t really you in the first place and become more aligned with who you truly are, clarity begins to emerge as to how you truly want to live your life and spend the rest of your days here on earth.
6.  Rise earlier and pray. Your morning time is the most sacred time that you have.  It’s quiet and it will allow you the silence and stillness to get reconnected to yourself and truly hear what your highest self has to say.  Use this time to meditate, pray and set your intentions.  Pray to help you accept love and truth and to live in the light.  Listen to this morning prayer for peace of mind and freedom from body and grab these 30 morning prayers to help you set your day up with success!  Most people pray incorrectly and don't end up manifesting their dreams or desires because they are going to the source empty and lacking.  Real pray, mediation and manifesting doesn't work that way.  Join here for more morning meditations and a 7 day manifesting challenge!
7.  Consciously choose.  You are experienced enough at this point in your journey to decipher God’s voice from the voices of others who might have had influence on you growing up.  Turn up the voice of God and turn down the voice of others.  Turn up the voice of your highest self and turn down the voice of your own inner critic.  Shut off all phones, electronics, and outside influences and truly get to know yourself and consciously make choices based on who you are in the present moment.
8.  Trust and continue to trust. Sometimes we don’t need to know every little detail of what comes next.  We need to have fun, relax and simply enjoy our life to the fullest and actually trust life.  Sometimes we have done everything we can do and then its time to hand it over to a higher power to handle all of the details.  Whether that be a relationship, your health, a situation that  you want to see changed, your financial circumstances, your career, business, or whatever it is, do everything in your power to do what you feel is right and best and then offer it up.  Trust and continue to trust that you will be guided to the next best thing and that everything always works out for you and that everything you touch is a success.
9.  Shower, clean up, get organized, and drink more water. Now is the time to focus only on your life and where you are headed and what you are going to create for yourself because this is where you have the most power. Call back and claim any energy you might have lost over the years giving too much too much of yourself away to others and allow yourself to refreshed and recharged.  From here on out this is a claiming of your own inherent worth and walking fully in who you are.  Take excellent care of yourself, your surroundings and drink more water so that you stay well hydrated and energized. Now is the time to get serious about choosing yourself and choosing love and embodying who you really are.   Now is the time to let go of anything that came before this moment so you can operate at a higher frequency of happiness, peace and joy.   
10.  Time and space. Allow yourself the time and space you need to work through everything and keep on reminding yourself of who you are by using your powerful I AM affirmations. By this point in your journey you will know who you are and your I AM affirmations will come easily and naturally to you though your own meditation practice and they will be very specific to who you are and what you are creating for your life.  Hold your dreams close to your heart.  Keep your life sacred.  Cherish it, honour it, respect it, and love it, for you are the divine keeper of your own heart and soul and you are here to make manifest one beautiful life that is worth living.  Follow your heart and let it lead you.  Trust your own inner magic and above all else know that you are loved.  You are love, light and that is a beautiful gift that you get to wake up and share with the world around you. Remember that.
