Healing The Solar Plexus Chakra

The Solar Plexus Chakra Represented by yellow.

This chakra is located at the diaphragm. Its Sanskrit name is manipura. It is associated with our physical center, personal power, desire, inner-strength, emotions, instincts, and “gut” feelings. If the solar plexus chakra becomes unbalanced, you may feel very stressed all the time and powerless to gain control, leaving you mentally and physically exhausted.

You may have “gut” feelings but are not sure of what or where they are coming from, contributing to your distress and discomfort. The stress of an unbalanced solar plexus chakra also contributes to poor memory and concentration.
