The mind is a fascinating instrument, designed to interpret, analyze and organize information. It constantly produces thoughts, often driven by memories, desires and worries. In many ways, the mind is a tool that helps us navigate daily life. However, while incredibly powerful, the mind also tends to keep us on the surface, away from deeper levels of awareness and understanding. Meditation offers a way to move beyond the limitations of the mind, allowing us to explore the vastness within.
The Ajna chakra or “third eye” is the center of intuition and inner vision, located between the eyebrows. Known for its deep indigo or violet color, this chakra connects conscious thought with spiritual insight, allowing us to see beyond the surface and into deeper truths.

Before you know it, your focus is lost and frustration sets in.
