 Hello Earth citizens. In this video I will share with you a 10 minute routine to open your crown chakra, seventh chakra. So this chakra right here is actually at the very highest point of your head. For a baby it's their soft spot where the skull hasn't fused yet. That point is actually an acupressure point where we receive energy from heaven into our bodies. So in brain education this seventh chakra opening meditation is called Chen Moon meditation. Chen Moon means heaven's gate. So as I mentioned this is the point where we receive energy from heaven. So it's heaven's gate meditation. This meditation is taken from the book Connect by Ilchili. I will drop a link in the description below on how you can get a copy, follow along and learn more about pineal gland meditation, opening the sixth chakra and other useful tips and exercises. So let's get started. First sit in a comfortable position. I recommend sitting in a half lotus posture like this with your spine straight. But if this hurts your hips feel free to sit on a chair at the edge of your seat, not leaning back. Edge of your seat, spine straight, feet flat on the floor, parallel to each other, not pointed out, not crossed, not like this. Feet like this, straight. Rest your hands on your knees. Take a deep breath in and out. Deep breath in and out. To do seventh chakra Chen Moon meditation you need a little tool. So I have here a little rock. So basically you need anything that you can balance on the top of your head that has a little bit of weight, not too much. So something good would be like a light book. The connect book works too. Your cell phone, maybe a little tangerine, a little apple, something that gives a little bit of pressure. I have here a little red rock from Sedona, Arizona. So go ahead and place this object on the top of your head where your seventh chakra is. Now you'll notice when you have an object sitting on the top of your head where does your mind immediately go to? Where does your attention go to? The object, right? Your brain is now focused on not dropping this object from your head. That means you have to sit straight, angle your neck, so it's optimal for you to balance this item. Because if you sit like this, the item slides right off, right? So place this on the top of your head and when you have a good balance, close your eyes. Close your eyes and bring your focus to the point of contact between your scalp and your item. Focus your mind there. When you focus your mind there, you can feel a slight weight pushing down on your head. Can you feel it? Focus on that weight. And now when you can feel that weight, imagine that weight moving down your body to your forehead, cheeks, chin, neck, chest, solar plexus, abdomen, lower abdomen, hip joints, and settling in your lower abdomen. Like an elevator of energy from the top of your head where the tool and your scalp meet. Pull the weight of that tool down your body and let it collect in your lower abdomen. Like an elevator of energy coming down, coming down, coming down, coming down, and collecting in your lower abdomen. Imagine in your lower abdomen there is a bowl that catches the weight coming down from the top of your head and settling into your lower abdomen like a bowl collecting a drop of water each time. Close your eyes and focus on bringing the weight down your body and into your core. Breathe comfortably. Keep bringing the weight of the item down into your lower belly. As you notice, you might feel some saliva forming in your mouth. Can you feel some saliva? Saliva is a sign that your awareness is going deeper into your body and even though you're not moving, energy is circulating very well and flowing properly within your body. If you can feel the saliva forming in your mouth, you're doing a great job. If you can't yet, don't worry. Keep focusing on that weight between the item and your scalp and bring down the weight into your body and let it collect in your lower abdomen. Breathe naturally. Don't hold your breath and with each breath, relax your body more and more as if whatever your body, mind, and spirit are gripping tightly onto as you bring the energy down. As you breathe naturally, you are releasing that tight grip little by little by little by little. Keep your mind on the line of energy. This is a great exercise for bringing your brain in the present moment and connecting your brain to your body. Have you ever had times where you felt your mind and body were disconnected? Like your mind is running a million miles per hour and your body can't catch up. This seventh chakra opening exercise and meditation will help align your brain and body so they are in the present moment together working in harmony as one. Feel this sensation for another 30 seconds. Great job and now open your eyes. Remove the item from the top of your head. Place it next to you and even with your eyes closed and the tool off of your head, can you still feel the remnants of the weight pushing down slightly on your scalp, on your seventh chakra? As you go about your day, stay connected to this energy and you'll notice that when you stay with this sensation, even though you meet a lot of people and you're surrounded by many things, many different environments and stimuli, other people's energy won't drain you. You did a great job. Stay with this feeling as you go about your day today. To experience a full one-hour brain education-based class, please visit a local body and brain yoga studio near you.
