What if we told you, there is a certain form of meditation which can open up your powerful sixth sense and get you in touch with your inner self?Our bodies are made up of seven chakras and the most important one among them is the sixth one, the third eye. Also known as the 'Ajna chakra', our third eye is considered to be extremely powerful because it is a potent source of intuitive wisdom which can guide you towards creative pursuits, do away with negativity, provide knowledgeable insight and perhaps lead you to the highest form of intelligence helping open your eyes towards what needs attention.When acting in full force, the third eye can help you see clearly, clear mental blockages and also improve mental flexibilities. 1x1 polls

In fact, the third eye has been hailed as the most important form of sense in many cultures and activating it is considered to be the most crucial.What if we told you, there is a certain form of meditation which can open up your powerful sixth sense and get you in touch with your inner self?While the third eye carries the benefit of connecting us to our gut feelings and work one step ahead of our basic five senses, it mostly stays dormant or closed. That's where the benefits of meditation come into play. According to healers, meditation is the simplest and the best way to awaken, vitalize and activate your third eye.Meditation helps clear out the negative toxins from the body, channelize your energies and help you concentrate better. Forms of meditation can also help you be self-aware, active your Ajna chakra, shift your state of consciousness to higher states with every session, thereby taking away anxiety and worries from the root and transcend into the innermost thought processes and make it work at the fullest capacity. Doing so can also put back focus on your mind, improve concentration and boost clarity.The best way of opening up your third eyeThird eye meditation, just like any form of meditation requires you to stay put in a calm environment and rake in the benefits of soothing sounds and vibes. To begin with, start by sitting in a comfortable position atop a chair or the floor. Keep your spine erect, shoulders relaxed and the hands-on the knees. Jaw, stomach and the face should be totally relaxed and open to the positive energy.Start by lightly bringing together the index finger to the thumb and close your eyes, gently. Next, breathe slowly. Inhale, exhale through the nose. With the eyes still closed, try to look up at the third eye, located just between your eyebrows. 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 Visual Stories
