ANAHATA
Anahata is the Sanskrit name of the heart chakra. It is the fourth of the seven main chakras. Its color is green. Translated it means "unstruck" or "unhurt". This is related to the Anahata Nada, the Anahata sounds. It describes the inner sounds which exist without friction and which, if we immerse ourselves deep enough in them, can lead us to the origin of being. The heart chakra stands for (unconditional) love, self- and foreign love, compassion, desire to give & forgiveness. The language of the heart, when we are in flow, is characterized by appreciation, warmth, honesty, empathy, congruence and authenticity.
Exactly these qualities describe my personal and therapeutic attitude. Clearly influenced by Carl Roger's approach of "client-centered psychotherapy", for me authenticity, empathy and appreciation for the living beings of our planet are not only therapeutic methods, but an attitude towards life. Reiki as an energetic-therapeutic method fits in wonderfully at this point, because it is the transmission of the universal life and love energy via the palms of the hands (read more here).
But we remain human- Anahata also stands for that. To be lenient with ourselves when we have a "bad day". It doesn't mean chasing after exaggerated moral ideals and denying us our humanity-no, it means dealing authentically and lovingly with our mistakes, but getting as involved as possible every day with the voice of the heart and harmony! We cannot say what tomorrow will be. Yesterday is already over. But we can determine today.
Every day anew.
