The Solar Plexus chakra is the third of the seven chakras. It is located in the abdominal region, above your navel and up to the breastbone. This chakra controls your metabolism and digestion. Another name for this chakra is the personal power chakra because it helps you tap into your powerful side, fills you with energy, controls your self-esteem and confidence. When the solar plexus chakra is out of balance, your may feel insecure and out of touch with the wonderful beauty and fire within you.
You’re probably now asking, why should I care about this Chakra?
Feel insecure? Do you struggle finding a sense of purpose? Are you having a hard time tapping into your power? Are you experiencing digestive issues? Are you gaining or losing lots of weight and you’re not sure why? Or are you overeating to suppress your emotions?
Time to balance the solar plexus chakra!
If you’re feeling disconnected with mind, body and spirit in any way, shape or form then it’s important to heal from the ground and work your way up the chakra system. So I recommend you briefly skim the root chakra blog first to see if you need to balance the first chakra, and work your way up!
