CHAKRA
THREE: SOLAR PLEXUS, POWER ISSUES, DIGESTION
The
belly is the feeling center, the place where many of
our emotions and passions originate. When something
happens in our lives that creates emotions, these
emotions seem to "grow" out of our guts
and spread out through out bodies and psyches to
whatever path is appropriate for their expression.
Emotions are energy in motion and once created they
will attempt to release themselves unless restricted
by conflicting beliefs and mechanisms.
Unexpressed emotions, such as anger, when repressed
may stick in your "gut" and the tension
may become stuck, creating a chakra block.
EMOTIONAL
RESPONSES: Fear, wanting to stop the process, felt a
lack of love as a child, defeated, a feeling of
"what’s the use, it won’t work anyway,
anger, burning up, bitterness, hard thoughts,
condemning, prideful, gripping, undigested ideas,
prolonged uncertainty, feeling of doom, dread,
anxiety, griping and grunting, denying your own
power, criticism, disappointment, failure, shame,
childlike reacting, unresolved anger, chronic
complaining, justifying, fault-finding to deceive
self, feeling bad, wallowing in the gummed mire of
the past, rejection, a belief of not being good
enough, anxious to please.

internal. In general, physical armoring can show up
as weight gain or loss. Look for protruding or
collapsed. Note areas of pain, tension and
discomfort.
PERSONALITY
TRAITS: People who have trained themselves not to
express difficult emotions will often overcompensate
and display extremely fragile and gentle personality
characteristics. They generally have a quiet,
sensitive style in relating and will seldom engage
in forceful or violent acts. They are sometimes
thought as "gutless" and they rarely can
"stomach" things.
HEALING
SUGGESTIONS
PSYCHOLOGICAL:
Take what’s yours, chose boundaries right for you.
Assert yourself appropriately. Empower your mate.
Couples explore your power chakra dynamics with each
other. Learn how you bond, sometimes sweetly,
sometimes sourly, into parent-child roles. RAM
meditations help you return to sweet and centered
interaction. You
and your lover sour when you or they feel sacred or
hurt but hide the hurt. You hide it and pretend all’s
well. Or criticize yourself for feeling hurt. Stop
hiding pain; say what hurts. Guess what hurts and
scares your lovers, under their feeling. When you
and they unmask fears and insecurities, you touch
hearts again and return to center and sweet
interaction.
PHYSICAL:
massage, rolfing, usually requires specific
diagnosis as these illnesses tend to be
internalized.
COUPLES
BLESSING: Touch your belly to hers. Say, "I
love you in your power chakra; take what’s
ours." Chant RAM.
