Heal Yourself Instantly: The Best Healing Method For Each Chakra
Want to push past your fears and life challenges? Understanding the mind-body energy system—known as the Chakra system—is the first step to overcoming obstacles and stagnancy in your life. The Sanskrit word Chakra literally translates to wheel or disk. In yoga, meditation, and Ayurveda, this term refers to wheels of energy throughout the mind-body system. To visualize a Chakra in your body, imagine a swirling wheel of energy that keeps you vibrant, healthy, and alive.
Since everything in the mind-body energy system is moving, it’s essential that your seven main Chakras stay open, aligned, and fluid. If there’s a blockage, energy cannot flow.
Each chakra also relates to a sense and an element, like this:
- First chakra = smell/earth
- Second chakra = taste/water
- Third chakra = sight/fire
- Fourth chakra = touch/air
- Fifth chakra = hearing/sound
- Sixth chakra = “sixth sense”/light
- Seventh chakra is off the body and unrelated to the sensory world, so it has no associations, except to pure consciousness.
Best Healing Method for Your First Chakra
So, for the first chakra, the best, long term healing comes from very physical activities – like hatha yoga, because the first chakra is the most dense and most related to the physical body. Smell-oriented treatments, like aromatherapy, work well too because this chakra is related to your sense of smell. Gemstones are great for first chakra healing as well, because stones are from the earth, the element of this chakra. Gardening is also really good for healing your first chakra
Best Healing Method for Your Second Chakra
For the second chakra – which is still very dense and physical – hatha yoga is good – especially tantrically-oriented yoga and hip poses. Healing with chakra foods (juicy, orange foods like oranges, mangoes & pumpkins) is good for this chakra since it’s related to taste, and doing aquatic bodywork – like watsu – is really good too, because the second chakra is related to the water element.
Best Healing Method for Your Third Chakra
For the third chakra – Visual therapy like working with yantras is very good here, as Byron Katie’s “The Work” because our conscious, mental reasoning ability and our self-image are both associated with the third chakra. Sun bathing is good, because the third chakra is related to the fire element, and it’s located in thesolar plexus.And if you’re up for it, fire walking will stoke your third chakra in a major way.
Best Healing Method for Your Fourth Chakra
For the fourth chakra – the bridge between the lower (more “physical” chakras) and the upper (more “spiritual” chakras), touch is good.Studies show that babies thrive when nurses and nanny’s hold them, and so do adults. Humans need hugging. Hugging –even self-hugging (do it now!) is one of the simplest ways to boost and balance heart chakra energy. EFT – the process of tapping – is great for this chakra too, as is breath work, because we breath in and out of this chakra and the element here is air.
Best Healing Method for Your Fifth Chakra
For the fifth chakra – sound healing takes the cake. You can use this technique two simple ways – putting sound out, in the form of mantras, chanting, and seed sounds (or even just singing a favorite song that makes you feel good) and taking sound in, in the form of crystal bowls, mantras or again, a favorite song.
The seed sounds (shortest mantras) for each of the chakras are:
- 1st– Lam2nd– Vam
- 3rd– Ram
- 4th– Yam
- 5th– Ham
- 6th– Om
- 7th– Silence (again, pure consciousness
Best Healing Method for Your Sixth Chakra
For the sixth chakra – visualization is the best tool, since our third eye is ground zero for all our dreams and visualizations. You can do this inwardly or outwardly, and I recommend both. Meditations are the best way to do inward visualizing. Just close your eyes and create a positive world within you. See and feel what you truly want and as you do this, you change your whole physiology in a way that causes you to interact more positively and confidently with your external world (and thereby change it). You can also visualize externally by creating an Amazing Vision Board. I created an awesome 4-video series that walks you through the process of creating a sacred vision board that will ignite your creative energy in a major way and take your life to the next level.

Best Healing Method for Your Seventh Chakra
For the seventh chakra, meditation – pure, silent, thoughtless openness is the best. Just opening to the space that we are, with nothing added.
Now, this is not to say that meditating won’t help the first chakra, it can. But we’re talking about a super subtle technique being used on a super dense chakra (kind of like “hammering” a nail with a pencil).
It may cause a shift in the energy field of the first chakra, but for it to stay for good, lots of repetition and consistency (both qualities of the first chakra) are needed. Getting into the actual body – tissues and bones – works much better for creating long-term, positive, first chakra shifts.
And conversely, for the sixth or seventh chakras to be greatly affected by something as physical as hatha yoga, you need to make sure you’re paying equal attention to your subtle energies while doing your physical practice.
It’s a trade off.
