    Chakra Healing

    When you think of the effects that food has on your body, it’s likely that you immediately think of the physical impacts. Some foods are intrinsically better for your physical health than others. And through conscious food choices, you can incorporate food into your diet that might help you lose or gain weight and/or muscle.

    But your food choices don’t just affect your physical self—they have a profound impact on your mental, emotional, and spiritual self as well.

    In fact, your mind, body, and spirit are all affected every single day by your food intake in ways that you may not even see.

    That’s why making intentional food choices that work with your internal energy is so important: because the effects extend beyond your physical self and have an impact on your entire well-being.

    Below, you’ll find a list of healing foods for each of your body’s energy centers along with a handy chart you can print or save to your phone.

    If you want to connect with a particular chakra, incorporate foods into your snacks and meals that correspond with that chakra. Be intentional with this practice.

    For instance, if you’re connecting with your root chakra and decide to add sweet potatoes to one of your meals, set the intention to connect with your root chakra before you start eating.

    As you eat, remain mindful of the energy in and around your root chakra. You might also internally recite some root chakra affirmations as you’re eating. (You can find links to affirmations for each of your body’s energy centers in the sections below.)

    For an overview on all the chakras, you can check out my post on the chakra colors and meanings. You can also find the entire catalog of chakra articles on this site on this page.

    And if you want to learn more about opening, activating, and healing your body’s energy centers, be sure to check out my Ultimate Chakra Healing Bundle. The bundle comes with a Chakra Healing eBook, Chakra Healing Workbook, and 8-Week Chakra Healing Guide. (All items can be purchased individually as well.)

    What is the Heart Chakra?

    Located in the center of your chest, your heart chakra is your body’s energy center for unconditional love, compassion, peace, kindness, connection, and empathy. When your heart chakra is open and balanced, you feel completely open to giving and receiving love. You feel a deep sense of connection both with yourself and with others, and you’re more likely to extend empathy, compassion, and forgiveness. (Again, to yourself and to others.)

    When your heart chakra is closed or imbalanced, this often manifests into feelings of depression, loneliness, fear of intimacy, and excessive self-isolation. It’s also possible to have an overactive heart chakra, which may cause you to become more possessive, jealous, clingy, and possessive.

    An open and balanced heart chakra is the foundation for deep healing of the soul. If your heart has been broken, or if you’ve found yourself closed off to love, the most powerful and profound thing you can do for yourself is to take the first step toward healing your heart chakra.

    Below are 40 powerful heart chakra affirmations for embracing unconditional love, peace, serenity, and compassion into your being. For more info on how to use affirmations to get the most out of them, be sure to check out my post, How to Use Affirmations (So They Actually Work).

    Healing the Heart Chakra

    Have you ever felt depressed, lonely, unloved, or even unlovable? Maybe loved ones have tried reaching out, but you’ve chosen to excessively self-isolate, even though you crave human connection. You may even feel fearful of physical and emotional intimacy with others.

    Or maybe it’s the opposite: maybe your fear of being alone is so strong, you’ve been dependent, clingy, and possibly even smothering. You may even experience feelings of possessiveness, jealousy, and sometimes selfishness.

    If any of these feelings or experiences resonate with you, the first thing I want to say is this: release any self-criticism or self-judgment. You are not wrong for any of it. None of the feelings, emotions, or experiences I’ve listed above make you less worthy or less deserving of love.

    The very best thing you can do for yourself in this moment (and always) is to choose self-compassion over self-criticism.

    Choosing to love yourself and to have compassion for yourself is the most powerful step you can take toward healing your heart chakra, which is your body’s energy center for love, compassion, peace, trust, empathy, kindness, and acceptance.

    And that means loving yourself even when you’re imperfect. Even when you feel like your perceived flaws are on full display. Even when you make mistakes.

    Because you are always, always, always deserving of unconditional love.

    Opening and healing the heart chakra is a powerful and profound step in your self-love journey. And it isn’t always easy to take that first step, so I hope you can see how strong you are, and I gently and lovingly implore you to show yourself some extra love and gratitude for showing up and doing the work that will carry you forward in your journey.

    How to Use These Journal Prompts

    Journaling is a powerful practice for healing imbalances in any of your body’s energy centers. It’s also a way to increase mindfulness, get in touch with your inner self, and embrace wholehearted self-love.

    The 30 journal prompts below are designed to help you heal your heart chakra. Do you have to complete all 30? Absolutely not. As you read through these, you may find some that resonate deeply with you. Find the ones that resonate most, and start with those. You may decide to skip around or complete some prompts multiple times.

    But if you’re feeling especially lost and unsure where to start? Then I’d encourage you to start at the top and work your way down. You might decide to keep completing them in order, or maybe after a few prompts, you’ll want to skip around.

    I prefer to journal first thing after I wake up in the morning, but everyone’s schedule and responsibilities are different. I don’t think time of day matters so much; rather, what’s important is that you have some quiet time to yourself, whether that’s 10 minutes, 15 minutes, 20 minutes, or more.

    As you start reflecting upon the questions below, I’d encourage you to have an open heart and an open mind. And more than anything, don’t judge yourself for your answers. If the inner bully comes out, gently ask them to leave, and let yourself be wrapped in the unconditional love that this expansive universe holds for you.
