How to use Yoga for Emotional Healing

Everyone experiences every emotion daily, weekly, or at some point in their lives. When we "bottle up" our emotions and push them to the side, they can manifest negatively through our relationships, work life, and more importantly ourselves. It is very important that we attempt to express how we feel, even if those feelings are of anger, stress, and sadness.

Energy flows through our body consistently, 24/7 every single day. If we pent up these feelings, it can cause blocks in our chakras and lead to what we call mental illnesses. By expressing our feelings openly, we can heal our bodies and grow in a lovely, spiritual way.

Yoga allows us to heal emotionally through asanas (poses). When we succumb to the natural energy of our bodies through these asanas, we may experience an emotional release. Sometimes this can look like sobbing, breathing angrily, laughing, etc. This is completely normal as you are releasing pent up energy in your body that can now flow out naturally. It is extremely healing to practice yoga often as you can keep an emotional balance.

Human beings are not perfect, nor are they meant to be. We will experience tons of emotions until the day we leave the physical plane. By practicing different asanas daily or even weekly can make a huge difference in your life. You will start to feel more energetic and get more things done in your day. You may start a new hobby or even going as far as a healthier career change. You would be amazed at how positive your life becomes once you are able to balance emotionally.

Incoming Solar Activity

Today was the peak day in a 10 day portal activation between August 22nd to August 31st. There is an increase in cosmic activity and several spots on the sun are lighting up. It is the beginning of a new solar cycle and this means inner work is coming up. Whenever I begin to deal with my inner work, I discipline myself into something new. Recently, I have created and stuck with a morning ritual and evening ritual that has been serving me well. Every morning I will meditate, practice yoga, burn an incense, and just breathe. Sometimes, I earth and journal outside and make a goal of getting at least 20 minutes of sunshine daily. When our bodies receive sunlight for at least 20 minutes, it helps strengthen our immunity and helps our bodies fight off the bad viruses, bacteria, and amoeba. This lunar cycle has been major for me because I felt heart chakra upgrades and the need to raise my vibration higher. I have this innate feeling of wanting to be and feel lighter, so I have com...

Hearing my spirit guides auditorily for the first time! :)

One of the coolest, most recent experiences I had was hearing one of my spirit guides (definitely felt like Krishna) speak to me through my left ear. Usually, your spirit guides will communicate through your left ear and ancestors your right ear. This is not entirely the case, but tends to be this way most commonly. I was laying in my bed by myself with no one around (of course) and my phone was off. My TV was also off so there was no possible way of any outside noise interference. I looked up into this day dream-like stance and heard through my left ear "Gracen, Gracen, Gracen!" Exactly 3 times. I heard an Indian man's voice and intuitively Krishna's name popped up. This was the first time I had heard my guides communicate with me auditorily. I responded back with "What??" I didn't get a response back after I said "what", however I personally believe it was to validate that I am maintaining a high vibration and guides are around me that ser...

Kemetic Yoga Practice

I have never liked the yoga that I was first introduced to in Charleston, South Carolina. I am very intuitive and have never felt nor believed that the yoga that was practiced there was the real deal. I was always turned off when the instructors were SO focused on just physical movement and whatever they said was "yoga". No one ever taught that yoga was something more. I moved to Utah almost 1 year ago today and was introduced to Bodhi Yoga. Bodhi Yoga is a yoga practice and philosophy that originated out of current day Pakistan. I learned about chanting, connecting with my higher self, how the practice is meant for your own journey and not this attained pose that I saw all the time in Westernized Yoga. I loved that it taught me to expand my consciousness and how there is more to yoga than what Americans think. I ventured into this metaphysical store over the summer in 2020 and found this beautiful place called Synchronicities. I wandered throughout the store and saw orgoni...
