Manipura Chakra

Empowering the Self: Understanding Manipura or Solar Plexus Chakra’s Vital Energy.

The third and most prominent chakra that determines our health and body well-being is the Manipura Chakra or Solar Plexus Chakra. The Manipura Chakra, located behind the navel, controls and nourishes all body functions, particularly digestion.

As Manipura Chakra contains many precious jewels, it is also powerful and significant to overcome the negative aspects of Svadhishthana. A balanced Manipura Chakra brings wisdom, self-confidence, bliss, and overall well-being. It also provides the ability to make correct decisions and knowledge. It instills thorough understanding of our self-esteem and self-assurance.

The Manipura Chakra or Solar Plexus Chakra regulates our digestive systems, digestive organs, pancreas and adrenal glands. If your body feels fatigued or you face digestive issues, where the food is not properly monitored and guided into your body, it may be due to an imbalance caused by the Manipura chakra. As the chakra involves the digestive system, an imbalance of the chakra can cause digestive disorders, circulatory disease, diabetes or problems of blood pressure.

Further, as the Chakra is the seat of our body’s Agni (Fire), it directly impacts our digestive system, along with, how our body reacts to conditions which also includes how it breaks the food. If the body fails to digest and sustain food properly, it can lead to imbalances in the Manipura Chakra, resulting in health hazards.

The Manipura Chakra with the triangle symbol pointing downward indicates energy, growth and development. It symbolizes the spread of vital energies and eliminates one from negative energies. It purifies and strengthens one’s vitality.

Therefore, you must maintain and avoid any blockage of the Manipura Chakra. A strong and active Manipura Chakra supports good health. It also assists you in overcoming many illnesses. You must concentrate on the wellness and proper functioning of the Manipura Chakra as it bestows health, strength and balance.
