Vibrational Yoga - Solar Plexus Chakra
The Solar Plexus (Manipura) chakra is the center of our personal power, self-esteem, confidence and inner fire. Associated with the color yellow, it’s located about 2 inches above the navel, in the upper abdomen area 💛
Activating yoga flows and core activating asanas fan the flames of our inner fire to amplify our motivation, sense of self and ability to take action.
Sun salutation (Surya Namaskar) is a sequenced flow that consists of multiple poses.
- Stand at the top of the mat with prayer hands then float arms up into mountain pose (tadasana)
- Bring the hands together at the top then send it all the way down to the mat, meeting in forward fold
- Lift the chest up so the spine is flat like in tabletop, place palms on shins or thighs for halfway lift
- Plant palms on the mat and step back into high plank (dandasana)
- Lower the body halfway (chaturanga dandasana), flip to the tops of the feet and push up into upward facing dog (Urdhva Mukha Svanasana)
- Curl over the toes and press back into downward facing dog (Adho Mukha Svanasana)
Honoring the light of the sun while generating heat within the body activates the solar plexus chakra, boosting self-confidence and clearing blockages around self-doubt.
The musical note associated with this chakra is E.
