A SIMPLE EXERCISE to begin enlivening your chakras is color imagery. Before going to sleep each night, take a couple of minutes to complete the following visualization.

Begin by imaging a soft glow of red at the base of your spine. Notice the quality of the color and make it bright and beautiful.

Now allow this red color to expand and flow up your body, down your arms and legs, and up into your head.

Continue to allow red to expand through and out your body, surrounding you in a gentle red glow. Repeat this process using the following colors and areas .

Orange in the pelvis, yellow in the solar plexus, green in the heart, blue in the throat, indigo at the brow, violet at the top of your head and white surrounding your whole being.

As you work with these colors, allow your breath to move the energy through and around you. Slow your breathing and let the colors flow and merge.

Perform this exercise nightly and notice differences in feelings, sensations, and attitudes. This is one of the first steps you can take to begin to explore and balance the chakra energies within you.
