THREE-PART BREATH TO OPEN THE HEART CHAKRA

The three-part breath is a gentle pranayama technique that can be used to open the heart chakra and find balance. To perform this exercise, all you need is some quiet time to devote to focusing on your breath. Follow the steps below to get started.

1. Find a comfortable seated position. Become aware of your natural breathing. Simply notice it; don’t judge it or try to change it.

2. When you’re ready to begin, inhale slowly and send the air deep into your belly. Your eyes can be closed or remain open.

3. Next, begin filling your middle section with air. Imagine the air filling up your body as water fills a pitcher.

4. Lastly, feel the air filling all the way up to your chest.

5. Now, you will exhale your breath in the opposite order. Slowly begin releasing the breath from the chest.

6. Next, release the breath from the middle part of your body.

7. Lastly, feel the air leaving your lower belly.

8. Pause for a moment at the top and bottom of each breath.

9. Try to keep your inhales and exhales the same length. You can even count to ten (or any number that suits you) for each of your inhales and exhales.

10. Repeat this breath for 10 minutes or more.

11. When you’re done, release all control over the breath and rest for a few moments to give yourself time to reflect and notice how you feel.

Optional enhancements:

Hold a piece of rose quartz or any of the other stones mentioned in this chapter.

Chant the Bija Mantra, “Yam,” for the heart chakra on your exhale.

Visualize green swirling energy around your heart chakra that grows with every inhale.
