> In yoga we do special breathing and chants for each of the chakras. I don't know if it is helping but I found 2 weeks ago, after I did the EMDR again and all that nasty stuff got stirred up. Then when we did our Ohms at the end of yoga. I would start and then my voice got stuck. I asked my friend who is the yoga instructer who knows this stuff about what it could mean. Well then she asked me where did I feel the energy stop. Well I thought, and I said my chest. She said that is the chakras of the heart. She told me I might be holding a lot of pain in my heart, maybe my DH. I am like wow, and she didn't even know about the EMDR sesion yet. so the pain could be from as a child too.I think the chakras are fascinating- I've been trying to study about this sort of thing on my own, (haven't been able to find a good yoga class near to me).
I try and meditate, and have found when I try and breathe into certain chakras, my breath gets stuck below the heart level, too- it just doesn't want to go any further.
It's something I'm working on- blockages in the chakras are indications of things that we are holding onto from the past, and they can cause health problems, too... Alice Miller mentions that in her book; that childhood experiences if repressed can cause illnesses to develop later in adulthood.arora
