Take Back You Power
This moon I am working on the third chakra:the Ego, straight up. The solar chakra is home to the ego self, which drives us forward.

I would observe the inhale, and I learned that if I welcomed it with openess and kindness, I was able to create a positive, gentle attitude towards myselfContinue reading “Abhinivesha: Fear of Death”
Self and Other
