Chakra Test


As of late, I’ve been feeling rather like an empty shell of a person.  I go through the motions each day forcing myself to complete certain tasks even though I really don’t feel like doing anything.  Yesterday I actually considered not opening my umbrella in the pouring rain to walk between my car and my apartment for the sole reason that I just didn’t feel like it.  I feel lazy and lethargic most of the time.  There are days when it takes all my energy to keep myself sitting upright at work.  I’m tired.  In the past I would have said I’m just burnt out, and that I need a vacation.  I don’t think I always felt this way.  But, maybe I did.  I really can’t recall.  Regardless, something needs to change.  I need to find the purpose for my existence.

As I’ve gotten more and more into the healing powers of yoga and am beginning to explore meditation, it kind of seemed like the natural next step to move forward with understanding the 7 chakras.  After I learned more about what they are, my next question was what chakra or chakras are out of balance?   And what do I even do about it?  I’ve been on the hunt for a good chakra quiz.  There are many of them out there, but I decided I like this one the best.  I plan to use this as one tool to check in with myself and see how I’m progressing.

After taking the quiz, I learned that all of my chakras are under-active.  On a scale of -100% to +100% with 0% being balanced, below are my results:

Root: under-active (-56%)
Sacral: under-active (-38%)
Navel: under-active (-38%)
Heart: under-active (-12%)
Throat: under-active (-31%)
Third Eye: under-active (-44%)
Crown: under-active (-6%)

Since my root chakra is the most under-active, and quite frankly is considered the foundation of the chakras I’m starting with this one.  Literally, I plan to build myself up from the bottom up moving from the root to the crown.

Happy April Fools' Day!

I'm not a very creative person, and have never come up with something truly funny to do to my friends, family, or any roommates I've had over the years.  Maybe one day I'll be able to put some of the ideas below to good use.  Until then... these are just amusing.

There is No Gain Without Struggle

We all struggle with something.  In our moments of struggle, it's impossible to think that other people could possibly be feeling the same hurt, frustration, and loneliness we are.  Remember you are not alone.  Struggling is a part of being human.  Without it, we would not appreciate the good things that we have.  Today, recognize that without struggle, we are not driven to be better.  You are better today, than you were yesterday.  Just keep going!  Keep taking steps every day to work towards your goals of personal development. 

Blessed

  Ahh… the holidays are officially here and in full swing.   I had the most lovely visit with my family over Thanksgiving.   I am so blessed!!   We ate way too much, watched way too much football for my taste, and really just hunkered down for a couple of days enjoying each other’s company.   I didn’t even mind all the stuff everywhere.   J   I felt sad and lonely after everyone left on Saturday.   Luckily, I’ll get to see them again in a few weeks!!   There were many lessons learned over those couple of days.   For one, I need to maintain a healthy and active mind.   I also, need to stay on top of my hearing and monitor the progression of loss.   After being around my parents for a few days, I see my future, and I’m screwed.   LOL.   I paid attention at how my parents and my sister and her girlfriend interacted, and I can see evidence of the importance of maintaining open communication, and remaining fr...
