Christina had been facing severe problems at work. She was unable to focus, missing deadlines, and having conflicts with co-workers. She felt depressed and anxious. Normally, she was a hard-working, highly ambitious person who performed well at work, so this was unusual for her. In her quest to find out the reason for her problems, she met with countless doctors, but all her tests came out to be negative. After months of trying to find an answer, she finally met with an energetic expert who informed her that the root cause behind her mental health struggle was energy blockages. Once Christina started working on relieving the blockages, her life improved and she was back to being the top employee at her organization.

The Interplay Between Blocked Energy, Stress, and Other Mental Health Issues

Everything, including you and me, is made of energy. We all radiate and receive energy. Even though it’s not visible, this energy controls everything that happens in the universe. This is why it’s so important to understand its power and impact.

Chakras are the energy distribution points for our bodies. Each chakra is connected to specific nerve points in our bodies. The force of life flows through these chakras continuously. When this harmony is disrupted, you may experience physical or mental health problems. This was exactly the case with Christina.

Stress can cause your chakras to fall out of harmony and disrupt the seamless flow of energy in your body. Sometimes, your chakras may be out of equilibrium due to trauma or fear. This creates stuck energy that manifests itself in various physical and mental forms, such as anxiety.

Once these energy blockages are cleared, a person feels lighter as the balanced energy flow is restored. After working on clearing their energy blockages, most people say that they feel ‘lighter and more like themselves again’.

When Blocked Energy Leads to Workplace Troubles

Considering that everything in our world is controlled by invisible energy, when your energy flow is blocked, you begin to experience troubles in your life. These troubles aren’t just restricted to your personal life, they leak into your professional life as well.

It becomes hard to focus on your job or interact with others. In some cases, your colleagues or supervisors may notice the signs before you do and bring them up to you.

Let’s explore some signs and symptoms of blocked energy in work-life:

• Changes in work habits: You may experience difficulty concentrating at work, low productivity, a general lack of motivation, and face difficulty meeting deadlines.
• Changes in behavior: You may observe that you quickly become irritable, lose your temper, feel restless, and are unusually nervous.
• Changes in physical appearance: Personal grooming and dressing up for work may begin to seem like a chore. In a serious situation, you may even violate the professional dress code.
• Changes in eating and sleep patterns:  Insomnia, oversleeping, or trouble falling asleep are tell-tale symptoms of mental health issues. Missing lunch with co-workers, over-eating, missing meals at home, etc. are also signs to look out for.
• Increased absence: You may start cancelling appointments, show up late, miss showing up at meetings. This is linked to a general feeling of fatigue, overwhelm and tiredness.
• Losing interest in everyday activities:  A lack of interest in activities you previously enjoyed is a sign of low mood. You may not feel like doing the tasks you’re assigned at work or hanging out with your colleagues.
• Withdrawing from social interactions and situations: Dealing with people – clients, managers, your colleagues – might feel draining. Earlier, you may have enjoyed office parties or networking events, but when your mental health isn’t at its best, you start withdrawing from all social interactions and avoiding others.

The road to healing starts with first identifying problems. When you’re struggling persistently, it’s harmful to keep ignoring issues. So, when you begin to notice these signs, it’s time to seek help.

How to Balance Your Chakras

Energy healing can be immensely beneficial to you. When you’ve identified that your chakras are out of harmony, the next step is to engage in regaining balance.

Dive into the following practices to align your chakras and heal energy. Practicing these will help you live an authentic life, where you’re in soul alignment, free from negative influences.

            1. Practice Visualization

Visualization is a powerful tool. Sit in silence, close your eyes, and visualize healing, positive energy entering your body. You can also create mental images that represent happiness and optimism.

            2. Breathwork

Breathing mindfully can be incredibly relaxing and help you regain control over your energy flow. Spend 5-10 minutes every day breathing deeply. You can also try alternate nostril breathing. Block one nostril and take in deep breaths, then switch.

3. Gratitude

It’s the law of nature that what you give, you attract. Practicing gratitude means you’re sending out positive energy into the world. This, in turn, will bring happiness and light into your life.

Integrating these three practices into your daily life will help restore balance in your chakras. As you put these techniques to regular use, you may experience a sense of calm and feel connected to the universe. Positive results are a sign your energy is becoming balanced.
