It is often best to access this chakra while sitting up with your legs crossed. Pinch your index and thumb together as though you were holding a rose. Let the other finger fall back forming a small fan. The right hand is held near the heart at the center of the chest. The left hand is held above the lap and centered in front of the stomach or on the left leg. Do not allow the right hand to chest.



Focus on something green or wear green clothing. Repeat the mantra in the corresponding note or listen to music composed for "F." Using a string to dangle the stone should rest on the chest or spine at an even level to the heart.

The green chakra promotes compassion for others and the ability to empathize and sympathize. Often people who are having trouble relating to others and feel lonely should try to stimulate the green chakra. It helps open a person's heart to others and begin to understand them creating a bond and feeling of being close to other people.
