chakrah help

[Melfina]

if i am very physically active isnt that going to close my chakrahs? in which case isnt that going to hamper my attempts to astral project?
looking for some clarification thanks,
eva

If chakras are energy portals that interconnect from the astral to the physical, (which would be one of it's definitions), why would physical activity close them?

[Melfina]

i read somewhere on these forums that physical activity can close your chakrahs.

[Stookie]

It may be a misunderstanding.

When you meditate and enter trance your energy centers are more likely to "open" or be more active. When exiting a meditation, sometimes a trance-like state can linger due to this effect, and doing physical activities can bring you back to a more physical state. The chakras don't "close", but become less active than before.

This is probably what was meant.

[Melfina]

that seems more sensible,
thank you for the clarification

I read that lots of sex, heavy foods (meat, eggs, dairy), lots of sugars, deficit of sleep and so... they all make the chakras be more close.

[CFTraveler]

I think it depends on the 'meaning' of the chakra and what you're doing with it.  I would think that a protein-high meal would be good for grounding (base chakra activity) but not for third-eye-work, for example.  So, like so much in life, it depends...

[Principle]

Certain foods are actually 'good' for the base chakras. Including the ones you mentioned like Eggs.

(Principle, I love your avatar  )

It's true that different aliments affect certain chakras for good or for bad, but generally speaking, the more "bad" you eat the more "blocked" your chakras will be.

In some text of occultism is recommended not to be vegetarian, for example, because of the high release of energy blockages in the subject, which could lead him not to be able to control it.

So the more vegetables, raw food, clean diet,... the more energy flow. To read on look for yoga text about dieting (or the Essene Gospel).

hmm interesting, maybe this will finally be an exscuse to stop eating meat lol

[mon9999]

not being argumentative but what about me, Im a certified carnivores and im already a mild obese but I do well on balancing my chakras

[andonitxo]

How do you know it? What could be your full potential if they were totally functional?

What I've previously said in the other post is a rule of thumb. Everyone must know his body and its limits, so there are always exceptions.

Anyway I felt far more energy when I went vegan. And even more when I pass, without ejaculating, some days. But that's my body

I'm with you mon.  I too eat meat and have no issues with out of body experiences.  I did the whole chakra thing a long time ago and didn't really see a difference, however I did notice that it gave me something to focus on while meditating and that is a good thing to keep your mind focused on one thing.

Side note...  andonitxo, are we going to have to hear about your self love on more than just this occasion?  Let me know so I can close my eyes next time.

I wasn't being bitchy, I was being very serious.
