Anodea Judith – The Seven Chakra Initiation
Description Of The Seven Chakra Initiation
While the initiation program will adapt to the unique needs of participants, we will be covering the activation, integration and alignment of all of your seven chakras in a systematic way. A total of fourteen teaching sessions, during the course of seven modules, will guide you on this exquisite journey through what Anodea calls, “the sacred architecture of your soul.”
What You’ll Learn In The Seven Chakra Initiation
Module 1: First Chakra Activation
Grounding Yourself to Receive Abundance
The root chakra is located at the base of the spine, and forms our foundation – connected with grounding, home, work, finances manifestation and being in a body. It is therefore related to our survival instincts, and to our sense of grounding and connection to our physical bodies. Activating and integrating this chakra brings you:
- Greater health, wellness, endurance and resilience
- Better finances and a more relaxed relationship with the physical world
- A sense of security and being safe, protected and “at home” in the Universe
- A foundation for attracting more money, prosperity and entrepreneurial success
- A more magnetic and dynamic physical presence, radiating into a room
- Greater self-esteem and confidence in how you show up in the world
- Better grounding through your legs on a physical level
Module 2: Second Chakra Activation
Liberating Your Emotions & Enjoying Your Sensuality
The second chakra is based in the lower back, abdomen and sexual organs, and is connected to your emotional identity, sexuality and self-gratification. It connects us to others through feeling, desire, sensation and movement. Practices in this module include the “Serpent Breath” to activate your cerebrospinal fluid. Activating and integrating this chakra brings:
- More powerful, fluid depth of feeling, which enhances your enjoyment of your body and life
- Expanded sexual desire, appeal, energies and fulfillment
- More joy, excitement and passion for your lifework
- Enhanced ability to entice clients, in all of your marketing
- More satisfying and profound emotional connections with partners, family, friends and allies
- An ability to navigate life changes, without upset
- Freedom from old emotional wounds, issues and fears from your family of origin and past relationships
- Greater opening to your senses
Module 3: Third Chakra Activation
Accessing & Focusing Your Power
This third chakra is known as the power chakra, located in the solar plexus; and is connected to fire, energy, ego, power, will, risk, digestion, motivation and action.
It rules our personal power, will and autonomy, as well as our metabolism. Practices in this module include the “Woodchopper” and the “Breath of Fire.” When fully activated, healthy and integrated, this chakra brings us:
- Stronger will and willpower for whatever we set our minds to
- A virtually unlimited supply of energy for our work and mission – the drive to make things happen
- Enhanced effectiveness, discipline and focus
- Freedom from social structures, giving us more spontaneity, free will and independence
- A capacity for inspiring, non-dominating leadership that others respect and rally behind
- An experience of whole and sovereign beingness
- Improved motivation for your true lifework.
Module 4: Fourth Chakra Activation
Opening to Love & Juicier Relationships
The fourth chakra is called the heart chakra, and it is related to love and the integration of opposites in the psyche: mind and body, male and female, persona and shadow, ego and unity. This chakra is concerned with relationships, balance, breath and nurturing. Practices in this module include forgiveness, gratitude and heart resonance practices. An activated, integrated and healthy fourth chakra allows you to:
- Love more deeply and unconditionally
- Feel more compassion and connection to other people, enhancing your empathy for the world
- Create a deep sense of peace and oneness with the universe, by integrating polarities and balancing opposites in your being
- A healed relationship between the masculine and feminine dimensions of your life
- Subtly integrate the ascending and descending energies of the chakras, and unite earth and sky qualities in your heart
- Open to living in sacred reverence, with an enhanced appreciation for beauty.
Module 5: Fifth Chakra Activation
Fully Expressing Yourself & Your Creativity
The fifth chakra is located in the throat and is related to communication, creativity, sound and self-expression. Here, you experience the world symbolically through vibration, such as the vibration of sound representing language. An activated, integrated and healthy fifth chakra allows you to:
- Express yourself clearly and powerfully to inspire others
- Access your inner artistry in a more profound way
- Own and stand in your truth in a way that creates space for other people’s truths
- Access your creativity and gifts, spontaneously and dynamically
- Experience music and sound on another level, as a tool for vibrational healing and awakening
- Shift the vibratory pattern of your own body more profoundly
- Create resonance between yourself and others
Module 6: Sixth Chakra Activation
Connecting with Your Vision, Intuition & the Higher Mind
The sixth chakra, known as the brow chakra or third eye center, is related to seeing – both physically and intuitively. This chakra is associated with light, perception, visualization, insight and dreaming. It opens our psychic faculties and understanding of archetypal levels. An activated, integrated and healthy fifth chakra allows you to:
- See more clearly your path, and how your work and creativity can serve others
- Perceive the bigger picture of your life, and your place in the Divine unfoldment of the human story
- Tap your psychic abilities and apply this wisdom to your work and your relationships
- Gain more direct and more consistent access to your intuition when making decisions
- Recognize the archetypal aspects of your journey at this time in your life
- Deepen your dream life, which teaches and guides you in your waking life
- Perceive that everything is, in fact, an expression of sacred patterns of light
- Deepened understanding of the myths that govern our lives
Module 7: Seventh Chakra Activation
Designing Your Life from Your Soul & Experiencing Unity Consciousness
The crown chakra relates to consciousness as pure awareness. It is our connection to the greater world beyond, to a timeless, spaceless place of all-knowing. When activated, integrated and healthy, the seventh chakra brings you:
- Heightened spiritual perception and a unitive sense of identity
- Stable connection to the Divine that gets you off the “seeker treadmill”
- Higher wisdom for guiding your life path and others more effectively
- A steadier connection to bliss and a sense of deep peace
- Clear-eyed, holistic wisdom for your own path and for advising others – useful in work as a therapist, healer, consultant, teacher
- Greater patience for the unfolding of work on the human plane, and understanding it through the lens of divine timing.
