You can also make use of your fingers to locate the exact point.Next, breathe slowly and channelise your gaze and concentrate on this point. Continue to do so until you spot a white or a bluish-white light to appear or surround you. As you do so, you enter a transcendental form of healing, where your concentration will be at its highest and most effective. This is the state when you would want to let go of bad energies, thoughts and simply focus on maximizing the potential of the Ajna chakra. The focus should be on your priority.Stay in this position for 10-20 minutes, at a stretch. Relaxing music can be used to further channelize your concentrative powers. Post this, end the session by exhaling a deep breath, bringing the palms together in front of the heart and return back to the first position. Blink your eyes open and stay in this position for a second or two, before continuing with your regular activities. Doing this simple activity every day, either in the morning or before retiring for the night can work wonders and heal your chakras.End of ArticleFOLLOW US ON SOCIAL MEDIA
