The Solar Plexus is located above the belly button and below the diaphragm
Associated with the colour yellow, the sun and the element of fire.
Physically its associated organs are the pancreas, liver, gallbladder, the large intestines and the skin.

As energy centres both absorb and emit energy, this third energy centre is related to direction both internally and externally.
Internally our focus determines where our energy is directed in the body and externally in what we express or radiate out into our environment.
The law of life associated with this energy centre is “What is within is with out”.
If we have great harmony and ease, that is what we express in our relationships. If we have great conflict and confusion that is what we express in our relationships and out into the world.

The Solar Plexus chakra is therefore associated with

Personal power
Self identity
Self acceptance
Self control and strength.

This will influence our ability to be reliable, take personal responsibility and be authentic.

If there is a lack of connection to the energy of this centre we may be

Depressed
Lack of direction
Lack of belief in ourselves
Lack of confidence.
Suffer from imposter syndrome

We may exhibit controlling behaviour or be overly competitive.

The emotional imbalance associated with this energy centre is shame.

If the pancreas is not functioning properly we may need to look at where is the sweetness and joy in our life.

Our solar plexus is the core of our being.
It is seat of our authentic self.
Where our truth resides.

Do more of what we enjoy and less of what drains us!!
How do you know if the Solar Plexus energy centres is turned down?
We may feel tired all the time, disconnected, unappreciated or taken for granted.

To create alignment in this centre, it is necessary to:

Act with integrity
Be authentic
Accept personal responsibility and don’t lie to yourself.
Talk kindly to yourself - your cells are listening.

What helps?

Practice breath work particularly breathing into the belly, use sound such as repeating RAM or AM whichever reverberates the most in your abdomen.
Look at a yellow candle flame, yoga postures such as the retraction and the warrior pose.
Abdominal massage can be very useful to help the physical organs and the solar plexus.
Get sunshine or natural light on your skin.
Take action in line with your truth.
