TYF469- Activating the Ajna (The Third Eye) Chakra: Techniques for Enhanced Perception and Guidance
Friday, 18 July, 2025
In this episode of Thrive Yoga Fit Transformational Coaching, I, Erin, continue the chakra series with a focus on the Ajna chakra—the third eye, our center of intuitive wisdom and inner vision. We explore how a blocked Ajna can show up as insomnia, mental overwhelm, or difficulty trusting your inner voice. I share how connecting with the heart—not just the logical mind—can bring clarity to life’s big decisions. Drawing from my background in Karate and Eastern philosophies, I discuss the role of Ajna in spiritual awakening, the meaning of “OM” vs. “AUM,” and the pineal gland’s connection to deeper states of consciousness. I use the metaphor of a movie theater to explain how overstimulation can block subtle energy, and I address why spiritual practices often get labeled “woo-woo.” Through meditation, pranayama, and specific yogic techniques, we can activate this powerful center of awareness. Next up: Sahasrara, the crown chakra. Until then, thank you for tuning in. Namaste.
