Solar Plexus ~ Internal Flame

This blog got off to a bumpy start.  Well, initially, quite well.  Everything was flowing and i was loving it.

But then i deleted the entire blog by accident.

How?

I was just trying to upload a picture, for pete sake!

When i say that my energy greatly affects my electronics i'm not being dramatic.  I lost everything because i got so frustrated.  My computer only works for me when i am calm.  Negativity, no way.  Excitement?  Glitches galore.

So here i am, starting over after my little dip of feeling depressed by the loss (even though i'm a firm believer that there are no accidents.)

I still experience disappointment, woe is human.  

I'm going to start talking about the solar plexus now.  Balancing our feelings is so essential to a healthy, happy life.  No coincidence that the classic smiley face is yellow.  The universe is designed in frequency (insert Einstein or Tesla quote here) 

Color is another frequency to help us!

There are so many tools to use once you understand that everything is here for you.  Just waiting for it's magic to be noticed.  (and your own.)

Fire is a spiritual tool ~ Whether it's sparking one of your own, focusing on a candle, or soaking up some sun.

Our solar plexus is our internal fire ~

Just like a flame, our feelings can either empower us or... blaze everything in their path, if left unchecked.

Think in shades of yellow ~ Our mind responds to this color as energizing and uplifting.

If you want to balance it, any route you take is bound to aide you on your healing journey as long as you're working toward growth. If yellow shirts don't look good with your olive complexion (like me) shoot for a bouquet of flowers! Draw with a yellow marker or highlighter.  Pick up a yellow rock that you like to hold in your hand or a yellow journal to write out your thoughts and dreams.  Highlight words that matter to you.

This is the only chakra center that yells AVOID bleached, processed, and chemically dyed food. This includes most popular flours and sugars. 

I might drill this point across obsessively... heh

I'm not saying you have to cut out delicious food, there are plenty of alternative sweeteners (maple syrup, pure cane, monkfruit, agave, dates, etc.)

But this is the bodies filtration system we're talking about here; putting synthetic fuel in you diesel engine wouldn't go well either, even if it runs for a while.  We are look for healthy not survival.
