The belly is the feeling center,
the place where many of our emotions and passions originate.
When something happens in our lives that creates emotions, these
emotions seem to "grow" out of our guts and spread
out through out bodies and psyches to whatever path is appropriate
for their expression. Emotions are energy in motion and once
created they will attempt to release themselves unless restricted
by conflicting beliefs and mechanisms. Unexpressed emotions,
such as anger, when repressed may stick in your "gut"
and the tension may become stuck, creating a chakra block.
EMOTIONAL RESPONSES: Fear, wanting to stop the process,
felt a lack of love as a child, defeated, a feeling of "what’s
the use, it won’t work anyway, anger, burning up, bitterness,
hard thoughts, condemning, prideful, gripping, undigested ideas,
prolonged uncertainty, feeling of doom, dread, anxiety, griping
and grunting, denying your own power, criticism, disappointment,
failure, shame, childlike reacting, unresolved anger, chronic
complaining, justifying, fault-finding to deceive self, feeling
bad, wallowing in the gummed mire of the past, rejection, a
belief of not being good enough, anxious to please.

REASONS FOR BLOCKS:
|
|
| - Not expressing strong emotions, such as love, anger,
fear |
| - Suppressing, denying, holding in feelings, limiting
expression of emotions and passions. |
| - Feeling disempowered in your life. Not taking what
is rightfully yours. Not supporting others you love in their personal
empowerment. |
| - Feeling conflicted between how you are and how
you are "supposed" to be. |

PHYSICAL CHARACTERISTICS: problems in this area are difficult
and not always obvious as most problems are internal. In general,
physical armoring can show up as weight gain or loss. Look for
protruding or collapsed. Note areas of pain, tension and discomfort.
PERSONALITY TRAITS: People who have trained themselves
not to express difficult emotions will often overcompensate
and display extremely fragile and gentle personality characteristics.
They generally have a quiet, sensitive style in relating and
will seldom engage in forceful or violent acts. They are sometimes
thought as "gutless" and they rarely can "stomach"
things.

HEALING SUGGESTIONS
PSYCHOLOGICAL: Take what’s yours, chose boundaries
right for you. Assert yourself appropriately. Empower your mate.
Couples explore your power chakra dynamics with each other.
Learn how you bond, sometimes sweetly, sometimes sourly, into
parent-child roles. RAM meditations help you return to sweet
and centered interaction. You and your lover sour when you or
they feel sacred or hurt but hide the hurt. You hide it and
pretend all’s well. Or criticize yourself for feeling hurt.
Stop hiding pain; say what hurts. Guess what hurts and scares
your lovers, under their feeling. When you and they unmask fears
and insecurities, you touch hearts again and return to center
and sweet interaction.
PHYSICAL: massage, rolfing, usually requires specific
diagnosis as these illnesses tend to be internalized.
COUPLES BLESSING: Touch your belly to hers. Say, "I
love you in your power chakra; take what’s ours."
Chant RAM.
