The Third Chakra Meditation Page

The above link will download an audio mediation, that you can listen to and use to explore your 3rd chakra. The third chakra, the solar plexus, is a seat of wisdom, joy, self-actualization and a seat of the will. It is also where the god-head (masculine) energy is placed in many traditions and is in the area above your navel, below your ribs. Enjoy this guided meditation into the belly area, where we will explore your library of wisdom.
