HEARTFULNESS RELAXATION

1. Sit comfortably and close your eyes softly and gently.
2. Begin with your toes. Wiggle your toes. Now feel them relax.
3. Feel the healing energy of Mother Earth move up into your toes,
feet, and ankles. Then up to your knees. Relax the lower legs.
4. Feel the healing energy move farther up your legs. Relax your
thighs.
5. Now, deeply relax your hips, lower body, and waist.
6. Relax your back. From your tailbone to your shoulders, feel
your entire back relaxing.
7. Relax your chest and shoulders. Feel your shoulders simply
melting away.
8. Relax your upper arms. Relax each muscle in your forearms
and your hands, right to your fingertips. Feel the energy gently
flow out from the finger tip.
9. Relax your neck muscles. Move your awareness up to your face.
10. Relax your jaw, mouth, nose, eyes, earlobes, facial muscles,
forehead . . . all the way to the top of your head.
11. Feel your whole body completely relaxed. Scan your system
from top to toe, and if there is any part of your body that is still
tense, painful, or unwell, feel it being immersed in the healing
energy of Mother Earth for a little while longer.
12. When you are ready, move your attention to your heart. Rest
there for a little while. Feel immersed in the love and light in
your heart.
13. Remain still and quiet, and slowly become absorbed within.
14. Remain absorbed for as long as you want, until you feel ready to
come out


ABOUT THE BOOK | BUY BOOK

 

“Exceptional… Spiritual Anatomy blends the wisdom of yogic philosophy with practical techniques to unlock your infinite potential.” — Deepak Chopra, New York Times bestselling author of Quantum Body

From the internationally bestselling author of The Heartfulness Way comes a journey to the center of our consciousness, mapping a path for you to connect to your highest self through Heartfulness meditation and guided chakra practices.

When we think of wellbeing, we often think of our physical and mental health—tending to our bodies and minds to find peace, purpose, and connection in our lives. But as Kamlesh D. Patel (affectionately known as Daaji), spiritual leader of the Heartfulness Organization and fourth in line to the raja yoga tradition illuminates, there is a third system we too often overlook: The Spiritual Anatomy.

Acting as a sort of atlas for consciousness, the chakras—the centers of spiritual energy that comprise our spiritual anatomy—lead us back to our hearts, ourselves, and the sustainable happiness and meaning we crave. Along the way readers will learn:

  • The role and importance of the chakras
  • What blocks our chakras and how to clean them
  • Meditation techniques that bring you closer to the heart’s center
  • How connecting deeply with our chakras can open our hearts, minds, and souls

As grounding as it is groundbreaking, Spiritual Anatomy is a must-read for seekers, meditators, and anyone who wants to cultivate joy in their life.
