Location: The center of the forehead

This chakra is accessed sitting or lying down. Cross your ankles to wear it feels comfortable. The left thumb touches the right thumb; the left index finger touches the right index finger, and so-on. It looks like holding an invisible ball.



Hold the hands as though forming an arch over the lower rib cage. Surround yourself with royal blue or blue-violet colors to give focal points. Wearing indigo shades of blue can also stimulate the chakra. Repeating the mantra on the corresponding key or listening to music written in "A" can be beneficial.

A hat or headband made of a natural fabric is the best method for holding stones close to the forehead or around the median of the head. The cloth should breathe and allow motion. Having a cap or head band that is too tight is restrictive and brings focus away from the meditation.

This is a tricky chakra. You must have a strong foundation for it to work. If you do not have a strong foundation to the red chakra or it makes people feel spacey. If the indigo chakra is out-of-balance it also makes people feel spacey.

When in balance a person can use their creative mind to make dreams happen. It allows intuition to combine with linear thoughts and broaden perceptions of the world into real and usable abstracts. This skill is applicable to learning. When concepts can be visualized, it is easier to retain the knowledge that is later turned into wisdom.
