BALANCE YOUR CHAKRAS IN TIME FOR 2020 Chakra Meditation with the Power of Positive Affirmations Meet Roxana Tismanaru, Yoga o’clock
In this month’s edition of Cyprus in Style Magazine, we spoke to Roxana Tismanaru, Yoga o’clock, to find out more about Chakra Meditation and the Power of Positive Affirmations. The human chakras were discovered in India between 1500 and 500 BC, in the oldest, Vedas text. Translated from Sanskrit, ‘chakra’ means ‘wheel’. The human chakras represent spinning discs of energy that run along the spine. There are seven main chakras along the spine, although, it has been said, there could be as many as 114 chakras all over the body. They allow the free flow of energy into and out of the human body. Chakra Healing is connected to the physical body, the mind and the emotional well-being of a person.
Roxana is an expert in her field and specialises in providing yoga and meditation classes, aromatherapy and ayurvedic consultations, health and wellness workshops, and private coaching for improving your well-being. Every practice is based around creating inner self-awareness and self-discovery.
1. ROOT CHAKRA (Muladhara): Foundations, Survival & Fears
Healing the Root Chakra:
The Root Chakra is located at the base of the spine, between the joints of the hip bone and the tail bone. It honours the earth, our basic survival and physical needs. When the Root Chakra is out of whack, this is when we feel unstable, insecure or disconnected from the earth. By healing and balancing your Root Chakra, your aim is to bring back stability and feel physically comfortable, wherever you are.
Alongside the role of our chakras, our thoughts are integral in creating our personal reality. By regularly practising ‘Chakra Balancing with the Power of Positive Affirmations’, we can achieve astonishing results. Follow the guided meditation below. You may be able to relate to some, more than others.
Start by imagining a vivid red light filling up the root spot and radiating into the earth, to achieve grounding and connection to your surroundings. Stay focused with deep breaths; start to Believe and Accept the following affirmations:
“I feel deeply rooted. I am connected to my body.” “I feel safe and secure. I have what I need.” “I am grounded and stable. I am standing on my own two feet.” “I nourish my body. I eat healthy food.
