The heart chakra or Anahata is the fourth of the seven chakras in the energy body. It is believed to be the seat of compassion which is located at the level of the physical heart, at the center of the chest. Maintaining a healthy heart chakra, will go a long way in providing good physical,emotional, as well as spiritual health for yourself. In this article, I will try and help you assess the condition of your heart chakra, so you can determine if yours is under active or over active.
This fourth chakra is responsible for the organs in your body that have actions of expansion and contraction. The heart and lungs are some examples. It is also closely tied with the movements of the arms and hands.
If this special chakra of ours is correctly balances, we feel self-accepted as well as show acceptance towards others. We are also prone to follow our own beliefs and values, rather than what is laid down to us by friends, family, religion, and society.
If you have an under active chakra, you may possess these traits:
- Low self-esteem

Mindfulness will help you work on correcting these tendencies. You will be able to balance the energy flow in this chakra. Simple heart opening yoga exercises will support this process.
