The fourth chakra, Anahata, also known as the heart chakra, translates to “unhurt” or “unstuck”. The name implies that beneath the hurts and grievances of past experiences lies a pure and spiritual place where no hurt exists.
When your heart chakra is open, you are flowing with love and compassion, you forgive quickly, and you accept others and yourself. A closed heart chakra can give way to grief, anger, jealousy, fear of betrayal, and hatred towards yourself and others.
Keep the heart chakra in balance by practicing empathy and a sense of walking in another person’s shoes. You might need to put boundaries in place with your friends or family members that seem to repeat a pattern of inflicting hurt on a constant basis.Smile at everyone you see. Give people positive affirmations and feedback. Try to go a day without criticizing anyone, including yourself.
