Sore or Blocked Heart Chakra: How to Balance Now?

Do you currently have a sore or blocked heart chakra? I will teach you how to unblock and balance this chakra correctly and in no time. So keep reading this article to learn everything you need to know!

Chakras are energy centers scattered along our spine making a total of seven points. They are vortices that spin in opposite directions, responsible for retaining, managing and emanating energies produced by us and by others.

When I speak for others, it is because we are energy centers all the time and everything around us is energy too. Therefore, not only do we emanate our energy, but we retain the energy produced by another person or situation.

For example, in a punctual situation of anger, we unbalance our energy centers and the time it takes to recover or balance this chakra will depend on our ability to understand and accept it.

The fact is, that whenever we unbalance one energy point, everyone else is compromised! This causes our body, mind and spirit to be unbalanced, which can cause many things, as an energetic decompensation to physical pain.

What does the Heart Chakra represent for your life

Each chakra represents or responds to one or more organs of our body, the cardiac as the name already mentions is responsible for our heart, but it is also for the lungs.

Just an observation about the lungs: notice how your breathing changes when you go through a bad situation, or when you encounter an enemy, everything is linked to feelings, emotions, perceptions.

Energetically speaking, the heart chakra is responsible for leading to the other energy centers:

Love; Much joy; Power of satisfaction; Different types of pleasure; While physically the heart has the function of pumping blood and keeping the body alive.

Then, we could say that in one way or another this chakra is responsible for keeping us alive! This, whether it’s because of pumping the blood or keeping our mood and astral up.

But, he is the one who generates vital energy directlyalthough we know that all the other chakras have their functions and share of responsibility for the proper functioning of the whole set.

That is, body, mind and spirit.

What is and where is the Heart Chakra?

The heart chakra is located in the middle of the chest (sternum) and represents the heart and lungs.

And it could not be different! We know that when a person is sad and keeps this feeling for a long time, your physical resistance drops! In addition, their immune system suffers from a lack of joy and satisfaction, making this person sick.

When we are happy, it seems that we are immune to some illnesses, mainly mental ones, that’s because joy is actually life and helps us to go through several situations without a huge loss of energy.

But, even though there is a significant loss of energy, the fact that we feel happy makes replacement fast and efficient and causes little or no significant damage.

We can say that if the heart is in harmony, peace and joy, the rest of the body will be fine, with that we begin to observe that we will need less and less external things, just the joy of being enough for our physical and emotional well-being live and feel.

The color of this chakra is light or smoky pink, if you are going to use therapies that use colors, lights and stones, but this should be done by someone who is well versed in the energy therapies mentioned here.

Otherwise, the risk of imbalance is very great and can compromise all other energy centers.

5 Causes for Having a Sore Heart Chakra

We can’t forget that this is the chakra of feelings, peace, love, joy, satisfaction.

Therefore, everything that gives us joy positively activates this chakra which in turn feeds all the others with the same joy and satisfaction! Promoting then a sense of well being for the whole set, body, mind and spirit.

In imbalance it, in addition to affecting our moods, feelings and emotions, can also cause chest pains.

Have you heard the phrase “longing that hurts the body“? Well, pain comes from feelings that can be longing, sadness, or just a lack of reasons to be happy.

These feelings, in turn, arise from the lack of energy in this chakra that needs to vibrate love and joy so that we can feel good and without pain.

1. Lack of Faith

When we talk about Faith we are not referring only to religious Faith, but faith in life, in people and in the world. We could say that the person lost faith in humanity and with that lost his faith in believing that people and situations can always improve.

So this is a very important and revealing symptom. He it shows that you stopped believing in the good things, in happiness, in love and in the future. It’s a serious symptom of imbalance that can and should be fixed quickly.

2. Sadness

Sadness hurts the body, some say it doesn’t, but when a person is very sad, they feel their body hurt and the pain starts in the chest. The impression one has is that he could have a heart attack at any moment, such is the pain he feels.

So sadness can even affect your physical, psychological, mental and spiritual. Your body and soul are completely affected.

3. Bitterness

The person who feels a lot of bitterness also feels pain in the heart chakra! That’s because here the pain goes beyond what one can bear.

Sorrows usually lead people to feel or become bitter and embittered, they lose pleasure in life, in everything around them.

4. Missing the past

The imbalance of the Heart Chakra, can lead a person to miss past thingswhich may or may not have been good.

However, they feel homesick as a way of not facing the present and thinking about the future, that is, for them there is nothing more than what has already been experienced, they begin to feel chest pains and think they are going to die.

5. Lack of motivation

For these people life could end now that they would be happy, as there is no other reason for them to live. This feeling can be punctual, for having lost someone, or something very important like health. This force is strong and really completely demotivates a person.

Usually when you lose motivation for life, joy was already being lost for some time, but it wasn’t noticed the way it should! Or it wasn’t given much importance, until it reached a total lack of motivation.

How to Resolve Painful Heart Chakra

If we are talking about a chakra that represents feelings and emotions, we need to improve our feelings for the pain to pass and for there to be a balance of energies.

Of course, not every feeling can be taken away from us just because we want to. There is a whole process for this to happen and it can be long depending on what happened.

The pain will only pass after we feel the release of the feeling, when it actually ends! For more specific situations, it is necessary to accelerate this process of understanding and acceptance.

Some things we need to understand that are not ours, which are not part of our lives, but even to have this notion you need a little balance.

Faith is usually a good way for these pains. Believing that nothing is eternal, neither good nor evil, and that everything will pass, can help a lot in recovery and later balance, but I say again, it depends on the type of feeling that generated the pain.

However, the most important thing to do is allow yourself to suffer for as long as it takes to only then be reborn strong and aware of what you’ve lived and learned.

Not accepting the pain or feelings that we don’t understand, doesn’t make them go away, but makes them potential! Therefore, do not underestimate what you feel, only you know why you are feeling it, and allow yourself to feel until it passes, because it will pass.

How to Unlock and Open the Heart Chakra Properly

As stated earlier in other articles about chakra, breathing, yoga and meditation exercises they are always the best ones to strengthen, unblock and balance all the chakras.

The cadenced breathing and done in the correct way, is excellent because it calms the mind and the heart, puts all the organs working in a perfect way or the closest to the perfect one.

In general, we don’t breathe to energize our energy centers, we breathe to keep ourselves alive and this is done automatically, without worrying about filling your lungs with air and releasing toxins that unbalance our chakras.

Therefore, learning to breathe is fundamental to relieve our centers and organs of heavy energies, and to absorb renewing energies.

Meditation works with breathing and emptying the mind, which are necessary for restoring strength, put meditation in your day to day, at first you will not be able to do it for a long time, but over time you will be doing meditation for hours without noticing.

Some energy therapies also help a lotsuch as Reiki, chromotherapy (therapy that uses colors to activate and balance the chakras), and the use of stones and crystals.

However, we must not forget that these techniques must be performed by people who know and have been trained to do so, so that there is no even greater imbalance.

Most important of all this, is not to lose faith and trust in life, without this nothing or no external technique can…
