Strong energy feelings after Chakra Rebalancing

[Ninjabear]

I've been doing a chakra balancing exercise but I've been getting some strong energy movement sensations. I haven't been able to find much information on the subject so I came here to see if anyone has any webpages of info on it.

The exercise involves breathing in and then imagining the chakras lighting up, each in a different colour. First time I did it it was like all the energy was being drawn from the whole body to the base chakra. Then it was in the heart centre, today some heart centre but loads of throat feelings and brow centre. The experience has been amazing but it's really uncomfortable.

So have you experienced any of this before?

P.s. I don't want to hear from anyone who doesn't believe in energy work or wants to discredit my experiences thank you.

yes, it's uncomfortable. Rumour has it that once u have got ur chakras
started, things will eventually slow down, usually after about 3 years.

One advice is not to struggle against any changes, and instead go with
them.

Greetings Ninjabear,
I'm new here, but I wanted to know more about the chakra balancing exercise that you were explaining. Do you imagine the chakras lighting up from the base chakra to the crown chakra or from the top to the bottom? Please elaborate, I may wish to try it.

Thanks

Whatever you're doing sounds like it's working. The attidude I've developed on chakra work is do whatever works as much as you can until it starts to have negative effects and then lay off it a bit.

I was just reading up on the Chakra and their purpose. My purpose is OBE and I read in one of my books... Now i will get the title after typing this where the colors of the chakra's matter also! I havnt tried this but here it is!!!!


Maintain the Simple Breath Meditation until you have reached a state of relaxed focus.

Visualize a glowing WHITE sphere of light an inch above the top of your head.

Visualize a WHITE shaft of light descending from the sphere. Bring this shaft of light down until it reaches a point just in front of the centre of your forehead (third eye).

Visualize a GREY sphere of energy in front of your third eye. This sphere should be situated half inside your forehead and half outside it.

Bring the WHITE shaft of light down to the centre of your throat.

Visualize a PURPLE sphere in front of, but not touching. the centre of your throat.

Bring the WHITE shaft of light down to the centre of your chest, over the heart.

Visualize a YELLOW or GOLDEN sphere in front of the centre of your chest.

Bring the WHITE shaft of light down to a position in front of your groin, approximately at the level where the root of your spine and tailbone meet.

Visualize a LAVENDER sphere in front of your groin.

Bring the WHITE shaft of light down to a position directly between your feet.

Visualize a sphere that is shimmering with the 7 COLOURS of a prism.

Hold this visualization. Let it become clear. Feel the energy and the way it moves in and out of your energy centres as you breathe.

Work with this meditation until you can maintain it for at least 30 minutes.

The reason the purple sphere should not touch your throat is that after a while the energy can cause muscle contractions in the throat that start to prompt a gag reflex.

Every person that works with this exercise will realize that they must instinctively make slight adjustments to the position of their spheres. They should be the colour indicated, and in the general location noted.

The exact positioning and colours of the Chakras are different than what you might consider the general standard. That is because it is for a very specific purpose, astral projection. These positions and colours are intended to aid that purpose.

TravelingBull,
I have no doubt in my mind that if your goal is Astral Projection, then you really don't need to worry about chakras. 
It just adds another useless layer of ideological "mud" that you have to wade through.

Hello.  I think the best way to deal with the chakras is to basically try to relax and go with the flow.  For me, when my so called chakras started to become 'active' (which was a surprise to me actually, as I was not familiar with any of this stuff), it was somewhat uncomfortable for about a week or so, but then I realized that you can really temper the activity by relaxing and if things are uncomfortable to basically focus elsewhere.  At least, you know what chakras are and have a forum like this to ask questions!  Anyway, I think it is a bit like exercise or stretching ... it takes a little while for the body to manage the so called energy flow ... and, its a little like learning to walk.  You need to stumble a bit before you realize how to balance and remain upright while walking ... but, over time it is easy and becomes second nature ...

Here's a simple answer for your simple question: The energy rush you are feeling is from your chakras opening and clearing out. Whatever method you are using, keep using it. Do what works for you. And no, it does not have to be complicated. Keep up the good work

Thank you for everyone's replies. Sorry I never got around to reading the answers I must have just been busy and forgot about the post. In answer to your question massiveattack, I got the exercise from a book called Meditation Bliss by David Fontana.

Sit on a cushion on the floor or on a chair. Close your eyes and watch your breathing for a moment. Then, as you breathe in, visualize white light entering your body at your lowest chakra (diagram I can't show), and rising up to your heart chakra in the chest, As you breathe out see the white light rise further still to your crown chakra at the top of your head. After doing this exercise, many people report finding their whole body full of new lightness and vitality, as if invigorated and purified. Alternatively to help to heal a particular area of your body, visualise drawing white light in on your in-breath and then imagine directing it to the area you wish to heal on your out-breath.

This may be moot by now, but if it continues to be uncomfortable, do a bit of grounding, preferably in nature, and it may help.
