Oh, the joy of Springing Forward. Today we find ourselves with less time in our first day into Daylight Savings Time, requiring a big adjustment to our body’s natural Circadian Rhythm (CR). I find it quite challenging for my body and mind to accept this abrupt change to my internal clock, as do many others. First, let’s understand this unnatural time change we all must face. We have a built in
Many have asked, What is Reiki? I light up with this question as Reiki is a such a powerful method for healing on many levels. I have personally experienced and witnessed its positive effects. Whether physical, mental, emotional or spiritual, even a combination of each, Reiki offers the recipient a proven energy tool for healing. When energy flow in living things is blocked, depleted and/or imbalanced, it manifests usually in
Since Fusion Yoga & Wellness is indeed a studio, a place to study yoga for wellness, I thought I would introduce authentic philosophies and history of yoga. You may have heard some or all of these terms during your time with us. Please keep an open mind as I am not intending to promote any specific religion, just simply intentions as a spiritualist wishing to share what I have explored,
My blog for this week’s is a bit more lengthy as we bridge the past six weeks journey through our Chakra series and arrive at our seventh, the Crown Chakra. Glowing lustrous violet hues form into a pure white royal crown found at the top center of our head, and slightly above. It connects our physical and energy body towards Higher Consciousness, Enlightenment, a term we hear often when seeking
Ever wonder why the 6th Chakra is called the Third Eye? Me too. For years I wanted to better understand this ancient belief that spans many cultures including the Egyptians’ Eye of Horus, the Mayans, Greeks, Asians and Hindus. I discovered some science behind the concept of an “eye” located at the center of the brain, the size of a pea, shaped like a small pinecone, our Pineal Gland pronounced pin-ee-uhl. It guides our circadian rhythms
Our 5th Chakra is the clear like the sky blue Throat, or Visshuda in Sanskrit, and is our superhighway between the Heart Brain to next week’s theme, the Third Eye. It is our chakra for communication. This space is small yet includes the neck and immediate spaces that lead to it, as well as our ears and mouth. So, what we eat, drink and speak affects it vibrationally. Think about how
Our Heart Brain when connected to the beautiful energy of our Heart Chakra can bring us better health, great joy and divine love. The single Torus Field image illustrates our body’s bioelectrical magnetic energy field generating to and from our heart. As energy spirals out, up and around the human body, down to and below our feet, then back up to our heart we experience a continual circuit of energy known as
The Solar Chakra is our 3rd of 7 major chakras connecting our Sacral Chakra we reviewed last week and our Heart Chakra (next week). The color associated is brilliant yellow like the sun, a “shining gem” as Manipura in sanskrit indicates. Located at the Solar Plexus, it represents our inner power and sits just above the navel. When we clear, replenish and activate our solar chakra we feel more empowered, confident,
The Sacral Chakra has been considered sacred as far back in history as the ancient Egyptian civilization. Energetically our Sacral Chakra, or Svadhisthana in Sanskrit, thrives in the area our hips. This orange sphere of energy is our center for creativity, pleasure, passion. Think reproduction and creativity physically, emotionally and mentally, a truly sacred center. Anatomically, the back region of the hips contains our sacrum, a large triangular bone connecting the
Kicking off our annual new year tradition of Chakra Energy Center series with…Root to Rise, a common term by yoga teachers to ground our feet firmly then move upward to a full standing position. We use Pada Bandha, the energy locks in our feet, engaged muscles and sturdy bones as we extend through our torso and lengthen our spine, reach through our arms, hands, and ultimately our heavy head at
