Lose Weight, Look More Youthful, Eliminate Pain-Use the 5 Tibetan Rites to Stimulate the Circulation of Your Essential Life Energy

Developed thousands of years ago by Tibetan monks to slow aging, increase energy, calm the mind and strengthen the body, the 5 Tibetan Rites are once-secret, ancient yoga-like poses .

The secret to the 5 Tibetan Rites was unveiled in the 1930′s when a retired British army officer discovered a remote Tibetan monastery where the monks were rumored to have discovered the legendary Fountain of Youth. The remarkably old, yet amazingly healthy monks claimed that the secret to reversing aging lay in the five special movements they performed daily. The officer learned these exercises from the monks and taught them to Peter Kelder, who documented them in the book “The Ancient Secrets of the Fountain of Youth.”

Practitioners reported improvements in strength, endurance, and energy, relief from joint pain and headaches, better memory and vision, weight loss and even a more youthful appearance.

According to Jo Caron, a certified Kripalu yoga instructor in Hawaii, the 5 Rites were meant to stimulate the energy centers of the body, the chakras, by speeding up and coordinating their spin. She recommends focusing on each chakra during a repetition of the exercises for increased benefits. Activating the chakras stimulates all the glands of the endocrine system, so the 5 Rites in effect, benefit the body’s overall functioning and aging process. The man who brought these 5 Rites to the West, stated that, “Performing the 5 Rites stimulates the circulation of essential life energy throughout the body.”

Love, Sex and Balance – Enter to Win Dynamind Video

BALANCE THE SACRAL CHAKRA WITH DYNAMIND

Located at the lower abdomen, the second chakra, the Sacral Chakra, is the focal point of your emotions, sexuality and creativity. This chakra governs how you relate to others and the flow of your feelings and creative expression. It vibrates with the energy of the color deep orange.

You may recognize some of these emotional or mental health issues commonly associated with the Sacral Chakra – sexual frigidity, promiscuity, confusion or addiction, co-dependency, being overly emotional or stoic, feeling guilty.

Physical health issues include gynecological problems, urinary tract problems, and stiffness or pain in the lower back.

When the Sacral Chakra is balanced, you feel more confident in your relationships, free to process your emotions, feel creative, and able to enjoy sex and other pleasurable activities without guilt. The Dynamind technique from Serge Kahili King, PhD, the Hawaiian shaman who taught me the technique and helped me adapt it specifically to chakra balancing.

HOW TO USE DYNAMIND:

1) FOCUS – Hold your hands out in a loose prayer-like position.

2) DECLARE – Say aloud the condition you’re feeling that you would like to change, for example:

“I’m doubled over with cramps and that can change. I want that feeling to go away.”

or

“I’m feeling anger in my lower back and that can change. I want that feeling to go away.”

3) RELEASE – Tap 7 times on the center of your chest, then at the point between the thumb and forefinger of each hand, and on the top bone of your spine (the 7th cervical vertebra).

4) BREATHE – Direct your breath, inhaling with your attention on the crown of your head, exhaling with your attention below your feet. Repeat until you feel or notice a change.

 THE DYNAMIND TONER FOR THE SACRAL CHAKRA:

Use this quick toner whenever you want to strengthen the Sacral Chakra.

1) FOCUS – Hold your hands out in a loose prayer-like position.

2) DECLARE – Say aloud how you’d like to feel, e.g.,

“I’m not as easy-going as I want to be. I want to go with the flow, like a mountain stream.”

Imagine your Sacral Chakra spinning clockwise, a wheel of bright ORANGE energy in your abdomen.

3) RELEASE – Tap 7 times on the center of your chest, then at the point between the thumb and forefinger of each hand, and on the top bone of your spine. You can hum instead of tap, toning the sound “VAM” as you place your fingers over each spot.

4) BREATHE – Direct your breath, inhaling with your attention on the crown of your head, exhaling with your attention below your feet. Repeat as needed.

You can follow along with me doing Dynamind Toners for all 7 chakras in my book, Balance Your Chakras, Balance Your Life and the accompanying DVD, Balance & Tone Your Chakras, both available on Amazon.com. Let me know how it works for you….

All those who leave a comment below or email me at Becca@thechakras.org with feedback on using Dynamind by May 3rd will be entered to win a copy of my DVD.

YOUR CHAKRAS IMPACT YOUR FINANCES

Q: Becca, I’m unhappy with my job, both in my paycheck and the drudgery of the work. Any advice on which chakra I need to balance?

BECCA: I’m often asked how to tell which chakra is out of balance, and there are many ways that can give you an answer. I like using a crystal pendulum over the chakra centers, using a bag of chakra stones*, or muscle testing – all ways to measure the strength of the energy field. Of course, you can also determine which chakra you may need to balance based on your feelings and experiences.

BUT, and this is a big but, I always recommend starting at the Root Chakra and working your way up to balance all seven major chakras, because it’s rare to have just one chakra blocked or too open. Each energy center affects the others. In your case, it seems you may have an imbalance in both your Root Chakra – not feeling secure with your finances, and in your Crown Chakra – not finding meaning and purpose in your work.

IMBALANCED CHAKRAS EQUAL FINANCIAL DIFFICULTY

Let’s look at how each chakra center could be affecting your job and life’s work.

First, the Root Chakra gives you a sense of security and belonging. If your first chakra is out of balance, you may have a hard time fitting into a corporate culture if you’re working for someone else, and you may have a hard time finding your niche of customers if you start your own business.

The Sacral Chakra is not only associated with the flow of creativity and sexuality, but the flow of money. So if your second chakra is out of balance, you may experience a problem with cash flow and have a hard time stretching your paycheck to cover the rent. If you’re an entrepreneur, you may have a lack of creative ideas to propel your own business forward.

The Solar Plexus Chakra is the center of your personal power. If your third chakra is out of balance, you may find it difficult to assert your leadership skills. You’ll find it hard to ask for a promotion or raise if working for a company, or to grow a strong, successful business of your own.

The Heart Chakra is associated with love and caring. If your fourth chakra is out of balance, you won’t get along as well as you could with your coworkers or clients. You’ll find it hard to relate to their needs, and therefore, your efforts will bot be sufficient or they will miss the mark.

The Throat Chakra governs whether you are able to speak your truth. Are you able to convince your potential clients or boss of the effectiveness of what you’re offering? Strengthening your fifth chakra will enable you to believe in your own message and be much more effective at selling yourself and your products.

The Third Eye Chakra is where we receive information and ideas. Do you feel inspired at work? If you have your own business, do you feel guided in how to grow your company? Strengthening your sixth chakra will open you up to new channels of abundance.

The Crown Chakra is our direct connection to Spirit. If your seventh chakra is balanced, you’ll feel that you’ve found your meaning and purpose in life and express it in your work or other activities. When you work for the greater good, success will be yours.

So, how should you balance the seven chakras?

Guided visualization may be the easiest way for most people to get in touch with their chakras, and sense where there needs to be more attention paid. I offer a Chakra Meditation from my book, The Chakra Diaries, for free download on my website. When you balance a chakra, you will notice an improvement in all areas connected to that chakra – from physical symptoms to your finances.

If you know a specific chakra needs special attention, I recommend crystal healing, or mind-body healing using Dynamind, described in my books, Chakra Secrets and Balance Your Chakras, Balance Your Life. To balance your chakras along with me, try my DVD, Balance & Tone Your Chakras.

Please feel free to ask any additional questions. Either comment below or email me at Becca@thechakras.org.

Namaste!

Birthday Giveaway of Chakra Secrets

Before I run out to swim and frolic with the dolphins, I wanted to ask you to help celebrate my birthday. Please download a Kindle copy of my memoir/self help book, Chakra Secrets. It will be FREE on March 7 & 8… tell your friends about it too!

More and more, I find the Dynamind mind-body healing technique I learned from Serge Kahili King in Hawaii, and share in Part II of Chakra Secrets, to be so effective to relieve painful symptoms – because it releases the painful emotions that have been stored up and are screaming out for attention. I’ve learned to be grateful for symptoms as our body’s way of telling us we need to “pay attention” and get back in balance.

Here’s what Jenny from NYC wrote about Chakra Secrets:

“Becca Chopra’s scintillating memoir centers on a love lost that mysteriously reappears. Her story not only offers drama, sex, past-life connections, betrayals, how-to info on Kundalini rising and Tantric Sex, but all the lessons she’s learned as she adopts the path of yoga. Her insights into chakra healing are deep and profound, and if you’re too caught up in the action to take notice of them, she outlines her most important new chakra balancing secret in Part II of this book. Whether you want to be intrigued or inspired, learn Becca’s secrets in this sensational tome.”

If you also like Chakra Secrets, please leave a review on Amazon.com‘s Chakra Secrets page. It helps authors so much!

Wishing you all balance and health.

Namaste!

CRYSTAL HEALING FOR THE SOLAR PLEXUS CHAKRA

Want to feel more self-confident and powerful in achieving your goals? Then you’ll want to strengthen your Solar Plexus or 3rd Chakra. I like to visualize the yellow light of the sun streaming into my navel or solar plexus area and feel this golden spotlight invigorating my life and my emotional and physical strength – especially in warding off the flu. If you’re in the midst of a winter storm right now, you can turn to the golden light of a crystal, and breath the energy emanating from the crystal into your solar plexus chakra.

HOW DO CRYSTALS ASSIST IN BALANCING THE CHAKRAS?

Crystal healing works because the stones interact with your body’s own natural subtle energies. Each crystal holds a vibration, much like chakras hold a vibration of color and energy. Crystals used to heal each chakra usually vibrate with the same color associated with that chakra. Edgar Cayce recommended illuminating a clear quartz crystal with the color of the chakra you wanted to heal, then to gaze on that crystal as you sang a mantra associated with that chakra (R A M for the Solar Plexus Chakra) or repeated an appropriate affirmation. Even a photograph of the crystal holds the vibration, so feel free to print this out and use it in lieu of the real thing.

Gaze at the photo here while toning R A M and notice how you feel greater confidence, self-esteem and vitality.

AFFIRMATION FOR THE SOLAR PLEXUS CHAKRA:

“I feel the fire in my belly producing more power in my life.”

For photos, sound mantras and affirmations associated with all seven of the major chakras, see my new Kindle book, BALANCE YOUR CHAKRAS, BALANCE YOUR LIFE.

WRITING YOUR MEMOIR

Young people want to live in the future.

Older people want to live in the past.

Nobody wants to live in the present.

And where has joy placed itself?

Where has understanding placed itself?

 In the present.

~ Prem Rawat

Understanding all we have learned in life can be gelled into the present moment as you write your own memoir, as I did with Chakra Secrets.

If you have gone through life’s tough experiences and come out the other end with wisdom or inspiration to share, you may have a story to tell as well, and doing so can be cathartic to get your words out. Creativity is linked to the second or sacral chakra, which gets strengthened as you flow with the inspiration in your life. As you shout out your message to the world, even on paper, you’ll also be strengthening your throat chakra, which is linked to speaking your truth.

Writing a memoir can also get you into the “now” as you realize the past is over, and you’re in a new situation now.

Embrace today! Release yesterday!

~ Senica Evans

If you’re not up to writing a whole book, start by creating a title for your memoir. Would it announce your accomplishments, offer a way others could handle similar challenges, or simply tell the world where you started and where you’re headed?

Taking stock of what we’ve done in the past gives us a larger view, giving us the chance to really reflect on our lives, letting go and forgiving, and looking forward to using our new-found wisdom and freedom. You might even start to think about what you might do in the years ahead – and what the sequel’s title might be!

HOW TO SHARE YOUR WORDS

Start writing in your journal or sit at your computer, but just go for it. If you want to write a book for publication, perhaps join a writer’s group or take a workshop to hone your writing skills and get feedback.

Self-publishing an eBook or paperback has never been easier or more popular. To ensure your message gets presented in the best manner possible, be sure to invest in a good editor and book cover designer. I recommend my editors at www.IndieAuthorCounsel.com.

PAIN RELIEF IN 60 SECONDS

Serge Kahili King teaching the four easy steps to using Dynamind.

I receive emails every day offering some new (and very expensive) salve, cream or pill for pain relief. All because I bought my mother an ointment for her arthritic knees. Then, I taught her Dynamind over the holidays, and she now uses this mind-body technique to relieve not only any pain in her knees, but her tension headaches too. She follows along with the DVD, Balance & Tone Your Chakras, in which Serge Kahili King, Ph.D., a Hawaiian shaman, teaches me to use DYNAMIND – adding in visualizations for each chakra, which I find makes it even more effective as an “instant” healing technique.

“I read this book and another of Becca’s, checked out her website, viewed her video that follows this book. For the first time in 2 years, I am pain free. I am more at peace. THANKS!” ~ Amazon reviewer of Balance Your Chakras, Balance Your Life

If you haven’t tried it yet, check out my book and DVD, now on sale at Amazon.com and let me know how Dynamind works for you. And be sure to enter my new giveaway – a free one-hour, personalized Dynamind phone coaching session. Just go to my website to enter.

Manifesting from the Heart

Balancing the Heart Chakra is key to manifesting success and happiness in your life. When your heart is full of love, it is easier to create whatever you want, break through blocks, and overcome fear and doubt. When you send out vibrations, thoughts or feelings of how much you enjoy something, then it comes back to you in greater and greater abundance.

“Whatever you love with positive energy will manifest more abundantly.” ~ Serge Kahili King, Ph.D.

Serge Kahili King helped me apply his “instant” energy healing technique, Dynamind, to chakra healing. Now, as we enter a New Year, a year holding new promise and hope for love and peace in our lives, and in our world, it’s the perfect time to apply the Dynamind Process to healing the Heart Chakra.

Using Dynamind to balance the Heart Chakra can bring forth more love and compassion in your life….

Located at the center of the chest, the fourth chakra, the Heart Chakra, represents selfless love and devotion, kindness, empathy and compassion. It vibrates with the energy of the color green. When the Heart Chakra is balanced, you feel free to give and receive love in all its expressions – passion, caring, rapport, understanding, empathy, compassion and forgiveness.

USING DYNAMIND TO BALANCE THE HEART CHAKRA

1) FOCUS – Hold your hands out in a loose prayer-like position.

2) DECLARE – Say aloud the condition you’re feeling that you would like to change, e.g,

“I feel sad and depressed and I know that can change. I want that feeling to go away.”

If you have no symptoms to release, you can use Dynamind to strengthen the Heart Chakra, with a declaration such as:

“I’m not as caring as I want to be. I want to nurture and reach out to others like the wind blowing through the leaves of a tree.”

3) RELEASE – Tap 7 times on the center of your chest, then at the point between the thumb and forefinger of each hand, and on the top bone of your spine (the 7^th cervical vertebra).

4) BREATHE – Direct your breath, inhaling with your attention on the crown of your head, exhaling with your attention below your feet.

Repeat until you feel the desired result.

Follow along with me in using Dynamind to balance all seven chakras in the Kindle book, BALANCE YOUR CHAKRAS, BALANCE YOUR LIFE, and the DVD, Balance & Tone Your Chakras.

Email your Amazon receipt to Becca@thechakras.org from any of my books and I’ll send you a FREE streaming video of Balance & Tone Your Chakras.

Namaste!

Lunar Eclipse Perfect Time to Cleanse Crystals and Old Beliefs

A full moon is bright white or yellow and is often considered a magical time, when all of your emotions, both positive and negative, are usually strengthened.

Tonight, we’ll experience a lunar eclipse, when the three celestial bodies, the earth, sun and moon are roughly in a straight line, turning the bright white moon into an orange, then deep red color as it plunges into the shadow of the earth.

Lunar eclipses were a cause of great fear in the past and, even today, can create a feeling of extremes — excitement and fruition when some of your plans fall into place; disapointment when life falls short of your dreams, according to Moonfruit.com. It is a good time for releasing pent up emotions, and visualizing what you want.

The full moon is said to offer a powerful effect on your meditations and affirmations, helping you to cleanse yourself of negative thoughts and beliefs that no longer serve you. It’s also a great time to cleanse your crystals.

If you want to cleanse and charge up your crystals, take the opportunity to charge them to match your intentions, before you place them on your windowsill or porch. First, rub your crystal lightly between your fingers, then place it on the center of your forehead over your Third Eye Chakra while offering your affirmation. As the full moon is usually associated with the color yellow, and the sun and moon will be aligned for two hours today, let’s look at an affirmation to strengthen our Solar Plexus Chakra, connecting your gut intuition with the intuition offered by your higher knowing through the Third Eye Chakra.

HOW DO CRYSTALS ASSIST IN BALANCING THE CHAKRAS?
Crystal healing works because the stones interact with your body’s own natural subtle energies. Each crystal holds a vibration, much like chakras hold a vibration of color and energy. Crystals used to heal each chakra usually vibrate with the same color associated with that chakra.

AFFIRMATION FOR THE SOLAR PLEXUS CHAKRA:

“I CAN ACCOMPLISH BOTH EASY AND DIFFICULT TASKS AS I ASSERT MY PERSONAL POWER.”

When the Solar Plexus Chakra is balanced, you are confident, with a strong sense of purpose/mission in your life. You are self-directed, self-confident and self-empowered.

For sound mantras and affirmations associated with all seven of the major chakras, see my new Kindle book, BALANCE YOUR CHAKRAS, BALANCE YOUR LIFE.
