Spiritual anatomy Meditation, chakras, and the journey to the center
Book - 2023
From the internationally bestselling author of The Heartfulness Way comes a journey to the center of our consciousness, mapping a path for you to connect to your highest self through Heartfulness meditation and guided chakra practices. When we think of wellbeing, we often think of our physical and mental health--tending to our bodies and minds to find peace, purpose, and connection in our lives. But as Kamlesh D. Patel (affectionately known as Daaji), spiritual leader of the Heartfulness Organization and fourth in line to the raja yoga tradition illuminates, there is a third system we too often overlook: The Spiritual Anatomy. Acting as a sort of atlas for consciousness, the chakras--the centers of spiritual energy that comprise our spiritu...al anatomy--lead us back to our hearts, ourselves, and the sustainable happiness and meaning we crave.
