Over the past decade, there has been a rebirth in ancient energy healing principles, like reiki or pranayama yoga. The recent scientific study of energy medicine has even helped left-brained thinkers understand that everything is energy and how energy influences itself and everyone and everything. With this resurgence of energy-mindedness, certain refrains have become quite common; “Be the energy you wish to attract,” “like attracts like,” and “positive energy, positive results.” These are more than just buzzwords and spiritual jargon. Fundamentally, they mean that similar energies, vibrations, or frequencies are drawn to one another. This is not a new concept, of course. It simply suggests that like-minded people and similar thoughts, emotions, and even dis-eases tend to align, amplifying their singular effect. Can opposites attract? Of course! However, there is often a caveat, and this may be one of the few instances where math might clarify things! If you take negative 3 and add it to positive 6, the sum is positive 3. Unfortunately, the same thing tends to happen energetically when two people come together. The lower vibration or negative frequency of one person will often lower the higher vibration or positive frequency of the other person, leaving the positive 6 or positive person at a loss. But wait energy, vibration, frequency! What does it all mean? A Quick Energy 101 Refresher Energy comes in various forms, kinetic, thermal, electrical, or metaphysical, for instance. It is the potential for something such as an object, thought, or physical body’s ability to transfer energy from itself to or influence something else. This energy transmits its power through vibration, the rhythm at which the energy exerts its force. For example, a vibration can occur as a thought or hug, on a nanoscale, or as an earthquake. What separates a hopeful thought from a pessimistic one or your houseplant from your chair, energetically speaking, is its vibration and frequency. Different molecules or energies vibrate at different rates, high and fast or low and slow. The speed at which an object or person vibrates is its frequency. Keep in mind that we often use frequency and vibration interchangeably. Spiritually, this is how a person who festers in worry and hopelessness will slow or lower their vibration and, in turn, slow or reduce someone else’s more positive frequency. While it may sound like we are all just molecules unconsciously bouncing into each others’ energy, this is very far from the case! We have the ability to choose to maintain and protect our vibration, lower it, or raise it to match the frequencies of others. The Fallacy of Fitting In You tend to approach tasks in the office with peaceful empowerment, but you get accused of not taking things seriously, so you begin to mirror coworkers’ tension. You are a new book club member and get dissenting looks when you respond passionately to the book, so you dampen your enthusiasm during future meetings. Or, perhaps you feel guilty when friends and family admonish you for acting above or beyond them; as a result, you try better to belong. These are all common ways we try to fit in, either because we don’t want to stand out or we don’t want to make others feel left out. Like the student who knows all the answers but stops raising their hand to avoid ridicule, fitting in starts with trying to belong but may ultimately hinder their academic growth and learning. When it comes to altering our energy to fit in, it may start with temporarily slowing our frequency but may eventually result in an inescapably lower vibration that deviates from our path of spiritual growth and enlightenment. Raising our vibration to match higher vibrational spirits can be just as disruptive. If you have ever encountered spiritual figures like Louise Hay, Eckhart Tolle, or Deepak Chopra, you may have noticed people seem to scramble to catch their attention, enter their auric field, and essentially match their energy. This can lead people to lose their sense of self, become ungrounded, and sometimes experience a spiritual crisis when they don’t have the foundational power to maintain that elevated vibration. It is akin to becoming a CEO without adequate business training and experience, your enterprise will crumble! The Infallibility of Independence Everyone’s journey is unique, as is how their energy fluctuations affect their journey and how their journey affects their energy fluctuations. When we manipulate this relationship by unnaturally altering our vibrational frequency, we compromise our sense of accountability, hinder our growth, and impede our enlightenment. Of course, not everyone will appreciate your refusal to fit it, namely those whose frequency you can only match by minimizing your own! However, the peace, balance, and universal harmony you discover will be reward enough. Without fail, when you honor your unique vibration, you will start to align with what is meant for you and attract only that which serves your greatest good and highest purpose. It is undeniably liberating, empowering, and enlightening how far going with the flow of your own frequency can carry you. In fact, with enough conviction, it can transport you to a whole new world, the new world of ascension! In love and truth, Lori Lines

![]() By Lori Lines The seventh chakra, the crown chakra, is centered at the widest spot of the fontanelle that you had as a baby. Associated with the pituitary gland, the seventh is your instrument of direct communication with the Divine. This communication stimulates your evolution toward at-one-ment is mostly temporary. However, it grows more and more lasting as your seventh chakra becomes open, clear and active. Your consciousness becomes such that you comprehend the variety and complexity as well as the connectedness of all things. You are in wakeful contact with each plane of your existence, and have the integrity and courage to deeply examine each of your inner worlds. Your personality is also very strong, yet gentle. You're able to manage earthly elements and to flow with forces beyond our earth, yet you do so with ample kindness for humanity. Meanwhile you maintain a rather detached perspective on yourself and your many little ways. At the time of your death you remain totally aware, knowing that you are dying and going ahead with it anyhow. The evolved consciousness of an open crown chakra, together with good function and balance in the other major centers, may be called self-realization. Self-realization does not come about unless all the chakras are equally active. One may have a wide-open seventh, but rarely will one be able to take responsibility for mundane tasks. There are others who may be creative geniuses, whose seventh, sixth, and fifth are their only fully functional chakras and who consequently require someone else to look after them and care for their earthly needs. Kind of likened to the "absent minded professor." When the seventh chakra is closed up, you create or perpetuate a condition of limited growth. In some cultures, men and women alike wear head coverings that tend to restrict seventh-chakra activity and curtail personal unfolding. To keep on living a limited life is the most severe form of inner dishonesty and delusion. For many people the only experience of access to the Source occurs at the moment of death. A closed seventh leads both to a fear of dying and a fear of enjoying life. The delusion takes hold that if you really enjoy life, you're bound to lose it. So you cling to the closed attitude that "life is suffering, and then you die." This delusion can be likened to someone with a victim mentality. Few of us are clear in the seventh chakra. For some of us, it's enough merely to be aware of the fact that we have a seventh chakra. To take the first steps toward opening and using the seventh calls for great courage and dedication, because there's no turning back. Once you begin the process, you'll never again be content with devoting yourself to conventional, mundane goals for their own sake. No degree of wealth or status or worldly achievement will give you a sense of fulfillment, unless you can manage this while realizing your seventh-chakra perceptions and priorities. It's far preferable to open the seventh very gradually, by the natural means of meditation, prayer, essential oils, and the use of crystals. As you do so, meanness and selfish ambition melts away. You'll find it increasingly difficult to act "unconsciously" or "with diminished capacity," above all toward another person. This doesn't mean that you refrain from anger and other strong emotions. It means you are able to use anger appropriately and constructively as a tool for self-defense or for sparking another person's higher self. When you start living your life according to seventh-chakra consciousness, you enter into the realm of unconditional love - within yourself and with other sentient beings. Unconditional love is the greatest power in the Universe. It burns negative karma and can enable you to do ten years' worth of growing in a fraction of that time. For opening and balancing the crown chakra, the most recommended single oils include: . Oil blends include: Frankincense, Myrrh, Jasmine, and Lavender. Oil Blends that are highly recommended are 3 Wise Men, Gathering, Inspiration. Apply one drop with one drop carrier oil on the top of the head.

How essential oils affect deeply has been proven time and again and these days, more and more people resort to oils instead of drugs, knowing that oils go beyond merely relieving a person of the symptoms of disease. They go deep into chakra levels to balance energies that overburden or under-utilize the physical body. You can use essential oils that rejuvenate and give the body a boost of energy after a long day’s exposure to the pain of fatigue. Of course, prevention is still the best cure, and there are oils for that, but for the average human, one cannot avoid exposure due to the need to earn a living or when we take on stress in any way. Essential oils hydrate, oxygenate and detoxify by boosting circulation and minimizing obstructions. They are not invasive but will penetrate the skin, rather quickly, and enter the bloodstream without hampering the natural functioning of the other organs of the human body. They only require delicate application, sometimes by mere smelling, and will still be powerful and effective especially when it comes to dealing with stress-related physical ailments. They can calm the heart while boosting circulation. They can improve and enhance digestion and liver functioning and one very interesting benefit is how oils affect the chakra and energy balance in the body. Oils have a direct connection to yoga and yoga techniques in that they help achieve what yoga wants to accomplish, via the asana and meditative practices, for energy balance in the body. Yoga and essential oils, together, will give the practitioner a myriad of physical, spiritual and mental benefits that shame the way drugs work. Oils are natural and there are increasing indications of appreciation in the use of what is natural in the body. Oils have been used for thousands of years in Yoga practicing countries, as well as in many parts of the world, for health and to bring balance in the chakra system. When mixed with coconut or olive oil, to rub the feet or the physical locations of the chakra, they’ve been known to promote mental peace and interior balance and therefore heightened spirituality. When used for meditation, these oils enhance tranquility and the practitioner of yoga is able to achieve concentration quickly and with ease.
Here are some oils that affect the mind and body.
Merely smelling these oils, using a cotton ball or tissue or directly from the container will provide great benefits. Some people use these oils as perfumes and apply wherever they wish. At Young Living we believe in the holistic approach to health. Oils are safe, effective, and natural when applied according to directions.

Its two principle functions are intuition and inspiration - access to knowledge that is not learned externally, hunches and visions beyond the reach of the five senses. The sixth is therefore the main channel for all the creative arts. Though sixth-chakra impressions are primarily pictorial, the sixth also acts in combination with the other chakras to turn concepts into worldly reality. The sixth and fifth, working together, enable you to hear original melodies and songs in addition, to details of songs remembered. When you dance with an open sixth, you are the dance - creativity in physical motion. The energy just pours through you. Since the sixth chakra is the organ of subliminal vision, the way to "see" past, present, future, and entities on the "other side" is through the third eye. When the sixth is open and balanced, clairvoyance results. Those who wish their psychic and creative abilities to expand are advised to work slowly and lovingly at opening the sixth for themselves. On the other hand, consistent failure to honor one's intuitions inevitably causes a shrinking of the sixth. Blockage of the sixth chakra can lead to an ultra-rational attitude, or, in combination with a restricted first chakra (root) to a diminished and negative self-image. Hallucinations and spiritual exhibitionism are symptoms of imbalance. Excess is personified by the "God-playing Guru, or by the kind of person who is both intensely overbearing and psychically sapping. In our culture, people routinely fog up and impair their sixth chakra envisioning by steady use of alcohol and/or processed tobacco. It's very difficult to keep in touch with your own intuition unless you remain clear and receptive in your third-eye chakra. Almost all the messages you send and receive are interpreted through the sixth. So it's of utmost importance that you develop it and protect it. Once you begin developing and protecting it, you'll be able to open up your third eye with full confidence that you won't be invaded or hurt. With respect to your general well-being it isn't necessary that you have perfect balance in the sixth chakra, or in any of the chakras. Certainly you'll want to keep advancing toward this end, but in the meantime perfection is not a prerequisite to accessing your third eye. I encourage you to utilize the powers of the sixth chakra to the best of your capacity. On that note, here are the oils that will best help you open and balance the third-eye (sixth) chakra: Single Oils include: Lavender, Rosemary, Clary Sage, Patchouli, Helichrysum. Oil blends include: White Angelica, Awaken, Dream Catcher, Transformation. Apply one drop with one drop carrier oil between the eyebrows.

We cannot underestimate the need to let go of old baggage, old relationships, outdated belief systems, and people who have hurt us in the past. The majority of people have something that bogs them down emotionally, something that takes toll of their lives mentally and physically, and when we have not dealt with it, the consequences can lead to devastating effects. Old emotional baggage can be a result of several factors, it could be a nasty situation or a person which you encountered in life that hurt you terribly, it could be plans that you were holding onto that suddenly went awry, it could be a trauma that you faced while you were young and possibly this trauma has somehow not been released from your energy field. Perhaps you have tried many methods and none has helped. I'm here to tell you that one should not lose hope because there are many ways to release. One of the services I provide is to guide people with emotional baggage through guided meditation coupled with essential oils to help identify and release that which weighs you down from moving forward in life. Essential oils have been proven, in my healing practice, to work and eventually empower my client(s) to lead happy, more fulfilling lives. But it's a process. A very rewarding process. For my clients who value full body and full emotional wellness, a chance to deal with a problem or a belief system which keeps one stuck that might have taken its toll in one's life has been gratefully accepted and welcomed. We are all aware that there is no greater wealth than good health and most people would do anything in their capacity to ensure that they achieve optimal health. Essential oils are meant to do just that: to help us in attaining our best form by raising our vibrational frequencies. Aromatherapy (therapeutic use of essential oils) is something that has been around for many years and has been tried and found to be effective. Those who have used these products have learned of their intense power and a special kind of energy that can only be found in these kinds of oils. Therapeutic grade essential oils are extracted directly from the plant , so those who may be having thoughts of being harmed by the oil need not worry as they are suitable for human consumption. The fact that they are obtained in their natural form means that they have life force energy that can be used for certain intentions. Conventional wisdom concurs that the amount of energy contained in the oils is high enough to release all the negative energy stored in our bodies. Here's how it works on a spiritual, energetic level: Basically, everything is alive, everything is constantly changing and everything has a meaning. Our bodies are a dense culmination of Karmic energy and, therefore, each of us "vibrates" at our own frequency based on all that we have accumulated and released up to now. Therefore, certain organs in our bodies carry certain emotions through our energy systems called chakras. The way essential oils work is they seep into the emotions and can change our frequencies for the better. They are known to be transmitted directly to the part of the brain which is known as the emotional control center. This is the point where the decision on where emotions are to be stored in our bodies are made. This may seem like a very complex process but understanding it is easy especially when this has been part of life experiences. When it comes to the application of the essential oils, you need to do it in the recommended way which ensures that you achieve the desired result. Be sure to follow the instructions and be assured you are on a journey to achieve full and balanced positive energy. When done in the right way, under the right regime you are assured that the feelings will be awakened, you will feel those feelings as you release them, and then you can be left with a feeling of courage, excitement, well-being and even joy. It is also important to make sure you inhale by diffusing the essential oils appropriate for release, allowing the therapeutic aroma to massage your inner spirit. It is important to stay aware and allow your emotions to surface without attempting to distract yourself from them, to stay present with them - because the more you do this the quicker you will release negativity. Otherwise, this process will draw out very long and you may be discouraged to continue on. Note that this one process will not be wiping your slate completely clean, but will be making yourself ready to start afresh, once again, by clearing the way for new and better to come into your life. If you have been carrying old baggage, it is high time you let it go, they will continue weighing you down unless you do something about it. Most clients say it is so refreshing to let the dead weight off their shoulders. Essential oils have been tried and tested and found to be very effective along these lines as you will not only feel energized but also feel like a part of some huge load that has been weighing you down has been lifted. There is so much joy in doing this as the quality of your life will be truly enhanced. Applying essential oils for release will help you open the inner self as you will feel traumatic and negative past experiences melting right away. When this happens your inner voice will slowly come back, giving you the energy that has been hidden inside and, based on my own experiences with essential oils, it is an experience that has positively changed my life for the better. The sweet fragrance will stimulate your memories helping in reconnecting with authentic self. Once you have managed to open the true self , you will have successfully completed an important step in finding the emotional balance that perhaps has been so evasive. What oils are best to use for release? Young Living Essential Oils offers several - however, it needs to be said that this is a very simplistic guideline for "letting go," releasing, and allowing the uplifting feeling of peace and emotional freedom to root into your psyche. Emotional health is a precious gift to our well-being because without it we are simply not living a life of fulfillment.

The functioning of most upper organs - eyes, brain, ears, mouth, nose, thyroid gland, bronchial tubes - is regulated by this chakra. When the throat chakra is healthy in size, unobstructed and working well, all your senses are sharp. Your sincerity is obvious to those around you. You say exactly what you mean, and what you say is well-received. Your phrasing and tone are such that people are seldom put off or threatened or hurt by your words. You don't subvert your own intention in order to be polite, but neither do you inflict careless verbal injury. Clairaudience, the intuitive aptitude for hearing astral voices and music is the psychic power that arises from the unencumbered activity of the throat chakra. On the contrary, if you ignore what your senses take in, if you are apt to feel mortified over what you just said, if you have trouble asserting yourself verbally and articulating what you mean, if there's a big discrepancy between what you say and what you do, or if you tend to indulge in rumor, innuendo, or idle chit chat, it's the fifth chakra that needs attention. Another common pattern of fifth-chakra misuse is that of the authoritarian who is rigid of opinion, stiff-necked, and tight-lipped in order to control the output of the mouth. As you work on restoring balance, strength and resilience to the fifth chakra, it helps enormously to suspend critical judgments and glimpse the spark of Divinity in each person and in each facet of nature. This includes letting go of prejudices and vengeful schemes and refraining from loose, manipulative talk. In most cases, your fifth closes down because you won't speak up. You don't trust the world with what you have to express, and you don't trust yourself to go ahead and say it. If such is the situation, strengthen your fifth by finding new outlets for your expressive energy. Let the radiance of your heart rise up and penetrate your throat. Or try humming so that the sound resonates throughout your neck. Sound is the key to opening the fifth chakra. Singing your children to sleep, chanting in a circle, and singing aloud are positive expressions of the primal scream. When your fifth is an open conduit, your speaking voice is clear and bell-like, without insinuating overtones. It conveys an appealing richness, and if you're musically inclined your abilities are vastly sharpened. Like the first and fourth chakras, the second and fifth are paired up - more noticeably so in women and children. Owing to a fear of rejection, you may restrain yourself from speaking freely. In an effort to win acceptance, you may be heedlessly verbose and given to wild statements. Considering that the fifth chakra channels directly to every sense but touch, one of its main purposes is to keep you involved in the sensory world. Meanwhile, your emotional life and sense of touch are nourished by the second chakra. In general, numbness is a two-level weakness that affects both the second and the fifth. When people shut off their hearing, fog their vision, or develop speech problems, it's often because they're allowing a pattern of emotional deadening to ride up from the sacral center to the throat center. The third chakra also pairs with the fifth, particularly in men. When a man's self-worth is inadequate, he lacks the "guts" to speak his mind. People who charge into a room or throw their weight around conversationally are showing third-fifth excess. Verbal battering is an extreme version of this. The fifth pairs, in turn, with the seventh (crown chakra). In fact, good functioning of the fifth is crucial to the opening of the seventh. It's the first step on the path to clarity: the capacity to see through your pretensions, ambitions, errors and miseries by means of regular self-examination. With clarity, you have the advantage of common sense, whether or not you happen to be talented in other ways. You don't waste your energy on mythical monsters in the closet of your own making. Unfortunately, the fifth can also be the center from which you spin worry, which is the opposite of clarity. Worry stems from deluded sense perceptions, fed by second-chakra insecurity. Most worries dissolve in the light of self-knowledge and self-acceptance, aided by the self-assurance that results from the day-to-day discipline of working toward these goals. When you find yourself worrying about someone else, look to see what aspect of yourself might be at the root of your anxiety. If you are agitated within, it's next to impossible to receive a precise reading of any message from your intuition or even the best psychic. Even straight, loud, talking can't get through to your conscious mind. The clarity of an open fifth chakra is what gives you an ear for inner wisdom and understanding. If you find, after reading the above, that you have fifth chakra issues, these are the essential oils that help open and raise the vibrations of the throat. Single oils include: Roman Chamomile, Tea Tree, Lemon, Lavender, Patchouli, Hyssop. Oil Blends include: Hope, Valor, Envision, and Believe. It is recommended you apply 2 drops of one of these oils, along with a carrier oil, to the throat area.

It is centered near the xiphoid process, the piece of cartilage at the base of the breastbone. The bodily functions associated with the fourth chakra are the pumping of the heart and the act of breathing. Breathing comprises both the respiration of air and the circulation of essential life force energy - also known as prana, chi, or ruach (the Hebrew word translated biblically as "the Spirit of God." or simply "the Spirit). Your fourth chakra has to do with the quality and extent of your joys and sorrows and the compassion you feel for your fellow beings. When your heart chakra is open and of adequate size, you're able to laugh and cry, sometimes simultaneously. Deep laughter and deep crying are both expressions of compassion. The fourth also shapes your capacity to express and accept personal love, to demonstrate loving energy toward others and attract the same from them. With an open fourth, you appreciate life. You are able to experience oneness with the entirety of life, and you approach other people within the attitude that we're all equally fit for our individual purpose. You also have access to profound serenity, no matter what's going on outside yourself. Blockage or constriction of the heart chakra causes tension throughout the whole body. Breathing gets shallow, as do the emotions. Signs of fourth chakra trouble include a judgmental, know-it-all attitude, undependability, and a capacity for conditional love only. We draw in love energy through the upper middle back, between the fourth and sixth thoracic vertebrae. Having received this energy, we then mix it with our personal energy and radiate it, through the larger fourth-chakra opening in front, out to the world around us - plants, animals and human beings. Shoulder pains on the right side, in back, indicate difficulty with accepting love; on the left, difficulty with giving love, or an emotional separation that has inflicted a deep wound. If the shoulder trouble is to the front, the situation is reversed: left-side aches or injuries indicate difficulty with receiving, and the right-side problems denote difficulty with giving. Right-side problems may also point to a competitive nature that is being exercised incorrectly or excessively. The thymus gland, key to the body's immune system, reflects the openness or the closed-off manner with which we meet the world on a fourth chakra level. The thymus is pivotal in warding off cancer and in recovering from this disease. Denying yourself the treats and joys of life and being stingy with others are two kinds of behavior that cause intense damage to the fourth chakra. Heart ailments represent an imbalance of some sort between the fourth and the first, through which we draw in the bounty of the world. When we habitually hoard this bounty - be it emotional, spiritual, or material - instead of sharing it, we create a structure which inclines us to heart attacks, though what constitutes too much wealth is different for different people. The first and fourth chakras are paired for good or ill. The capacity to be generous without giving up all that you have reveals a successful pairing, a balance between the inflow of your first and the outflow of your fourth. We're meant to draw abundance through the root chakra and send it out through the heart chakra. The Universe is good to us, and so should that flow out from us to others. Not all heart ailments are brought on by a lack of generosity. Children can develop heart problems because of feeling unloved by their families. Children are psychically and emotionally corded to one or both parents until late adolescence or early adulthood. The connection ensures their survival. When the cord is damaged or prematurely severed, this can precipitate a degenerative condition in the physical heart as well as an unloving behavioral pattern. Once a negative fourth-chakra condition sets in, it nags at the person throughout life, arising again in each new stress situation which calls for a lot of heart-related energy. Lies and half-truths also injure the fourth chakra, and especially the lungs. This is so whether you tell the lie yourself or accept it without challenge from someone else. The less lying you involve yourself in, the more your forth opens, allowing you to be that much more truthful and compassionate. This is what I believe Jesus meant when he said, "the truth shall set you free." Asking for and providing the truth frees up the heart region and feels wonderful. You cherish yourself. You feel free to be a lover of all that is, especially with special people in your life. When the heart chakra is imbedded and untruth is lodged within it, we fear exposure and betrayal, this is the result of a false or pretentious self-image having ridden up from the first chakra, and it becomes very hard to generate feelings of love and intimacy. If you have a backlog of dishonesty, gradually relieve yourself of it by setting things straight with the people in your life. There really is no hiding. So, you have to be prepared to be open, at least to the extent of semi-conditional love. Semi-conditional love describes a relationship in which each of you goes on loving the other, though every so often one of you incurs the other's disapproval or displeasure. Meanwhile, the Universe tries to steer you toward unconditional love, which trusts in each person's ultimate enlightenment and knows that missteps and catastrophic detours are natural occurrences as one travels one's true path. Here are essential oils that may be helpful in supporting your Heart Chakra (4th) in bringing you the highest vibrational frequency to this area of your life. Single oils are: Rose, Geranium, Cedarwood, Jasmine, and Ylang Ylang.. Oil Blends are: Acceptance, Humility, Joy. Apply to the chest area over the heart. Be sure to use a carrier oil as these oils are potent and could irritate sensitive skin.
