The heart chakra energy is one of unconditional love and compassion for yourself and others. This energy enables us to be kind, empathetic, and have deep and harmonious relationships. A balanced heart chakra allows for great self-esteem and self-worth. This chakra calls for you to embrace your authentic self and honour yourself, your desires, and your needs.
The fourth chakra helps you process and heal emotional hurts, encourages forgiveness, and experience and build emotional balance and resilience. The beautiful energy of this chakra also helps the healing on a collective level and brings unity.
Living with a Closed and Unbalanced Heart Chakra
When your heart chakra is unbalanced, inactive or underactive you likely feel isolated, antisocial, not empathetic, judgemental, and struggle to establish meaningful relationships.
An overactive heart chakra can lead to co-dependency, jealousy, being overly attached, having no healthy boundaries, and sacrificing too much.

To open, activate, and balance your heart chakra practice self-care, self-love, kindness, empathy, compassion, forgiveness, gratitude, meditation, yoga, breathwork and work with crystals (rose quartz, green aventurine).
