A woman who works with chakras gave me a physical exercise to open up my heart, and it feels really good. Maybe y'all have tried it or would like to?
Lie face up across a large yoga ball relaxing your back to touch as much of the ball as possible, feet flat on the floor. Balance and allow your arms and shoulders to either reach back over your head or down to the sides, whichever is comfortable, and allow that relaxing of your shoulders and arms to stretch and thin your chest and torso. Aim your heart to heaven. Invite your higher power to open your heart to the flow of generous giving and receiving from the heights of heaven and the grounding energies of earth. Breathe deeply and comfortably, and use your breath to send relaxation to whatever parts of your body may be resistant or tight. Tell those parts they have permission to relax. Lay there as long as feels good, then roll gently off the ball to the ground to your side then your front, use your arms to push yourself up, roll up one vertebra at a time yoga style. Express gratitude out loud.
Love,
angela
