And how to activate it
You know those knobby bones that are part of our collarbone that almost come together at the bottom of our necks? Put your thumb and forefinger on those bony knobs. Above is neck, below is chest. Now slide your thumb and forefinger down your chest about two inches or so. There it is. There is the gratitude mini-chakra. It is approximately halfway between the heart chakra and the throat chakra. By the way, there is a mini-chakra between all the major chakras. Anyway, this is the approximate location of this mini-chakra. You can activate this mini-chakra of gratitude by gently tapping the fingertips of one hand (you get to pick the hand) over this area of the upper chest. Softly tap your fingertips at a rhythm you feel at ease with.
As a way of opening up the gratitude mini-chakra, I suggest this practice: Take a deep breath, releasing all thoughts from your noggin. Then begin tapping your fingertips over the gratitude mini-chakra. Once you feel comfortable with the rhythm, proclaim, either silently or aloud, this three times: “I am grateful for life. I am grateful for life. I am grateful for life.” Then take a deep breath, feeling the air fill your lungs and exhale slowly.
Do this three to twenty-seven times a day for one complete lunar cycle (approximately 28 days) and your gratitude mini-chakra will start…
