It is you and you are part of it. All you need is always available to you. ---Continue breathing deeply, and move into your second chakra area 2 inches below your navel. Feel the warm, glowing orange embers spiraling peacefully. This spiral is like soft waves that rise and fall This is the chakra of change. As the embers fan and cool and the spiral crashes and recedes, you are at peace with change. With change comes opportunity. You are centered within this never-ending flow.... ---Move your attention to the third chakra at your solar plexus. You are aware of a bright, clear, yellow spiraling sun that is your 3rd chakra.
