Chakra Eight - May 28, 2020 - Divine Light

Chakra Eight is not often discussed in connection with the standard seven. I discovered this one some years ago in my study and use it in my classes at The Yogatorium.  We each place our hands back to back at the eighth chakra above our head and draw the light around our body moving our hands all the way down to the earth, symbolically opening sacred space.  Then, at the end of the class, following savasana and meditation, we close sacred space bringing the light back up to the eighth chakra.

Below is a diagram showing the location of the seven chakras.  Peter Sterios.   Gravity and Grace: How to Awaken Your Subtle Body and the Healing Power of Yoga.  P. 119.
