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.

Oh Lord

When I die, put my ashes in the trash bag I don't care where they go Don't waste your money on my gravestone I'm more concerned about my soul Everybody's gon' die Don't everybody live though Sometimes I look up to the sky And wonder do You see us down here?

See the Value in Each Day's Journey

Sometimes the road seems so long and endless, that the idea we'll ever get to where we want to be seems like a battle that will never be won.  That all our efforts don't matter, and are for nothing.  But, the truth is, we need to find joy in the journey.  Stop focusing so much on what we don't have and that place that we haven't reached yet, and start being present in the moment and learning how everything we do affects us, and others.  Ask yourself, what is the impression I made today?  How have I affected others?  How does that make me feel?  How can I do better? Too often, I believe that we miss part of the message we're supposed to get out of our experiences, because we're so focused on the the end point. "The Pleasure and value of every walk or journey we take may be doubled to us by carefully noting down the impressions it makes upon us." - John Burroughs

Happy November!

It is officially November, so you know what that means.   Holiday preparations are now in full swing.   I’ve been told I’m so organized I’m boring, but making lists, forward thinking and planning helps with managing my stress levels.   There is just so much to do, think about, and keep track of!   I have about 5 lists going right now.   It’s crazy.   What’s most exciting is that since I’ve moved to a house, my family and I will have more room to spread out and relax at Thanksgiving.   I always get so nervous that everything won’t work out, or people won’t have a good time.   But, no matter how much I worry, it always works out in the end. Here’s to a happy, healthy, and relatively stress free holiday season!
