Solar Plexus Chakra Healing
Is your solar plexus giving you issues? Maybe you are noticing some stomach pain or difficulty speaking your truth? If so, you may need to do a solar plexus chakra healing.
Our chakras are our energy centers. They are vortexes of spinning energy that create who we are and what we do. The solar plexus chakra has to do with your self-esteem, personal power, and vitality.
It is the color yellow which is also the same color as the sun. The sun gives plants life and this yellow chakra vitalizes us in the same way. It has to do with self-empowerment and how you see yourself.
It is important to recognize when this chakra is out of balance so you can bring it into balance & heal it before it gets too out of control.
You may experience both physical and emotional symptoms when it is out of balance. The good news is that you can easily do a solar plexus chakra healing to bring it into balance. It is very important to take time to balance this chakra, as it is where your sense of self comes from. There is no worse emotion than feeling powerless in your life.
Emotional Symptoms of an Unbalanced Solar Plexus Chakra
This chakra relates to your self-esteem, who you chose to hang out with, your confidence and vitality. If it is out of balance it can cause emotional symptoms such as:
- Anxiety
- Social phobia
- Lack of ambition
- Issues that relate to your self-confidence
- Willpower
- Lack of action
- Victim Mentality
If this chakra is out of balance you may see yourself as powerless. You will have low self-confidence and embarrassed of what others think about you, therefore, giving away your power to others. You will lack ambition and willpower in your life and therefore, it will prevent you from taking action.
Physical Symptoms of an Unbalanced Solar Plexus Chakra
You may also experience physical symptoms which let you know that this chakra is out of balance and that you require a solar plexus chakra healing.
This chakra is located just above your belly button it affects all your organs around there. Physical issues related to this chakra & the organs it affects include:
- Intestines
- Liver
- Pancreas
- Colon
- Gallbladder
- Spleen
- Digestive issues
- Ulcers and other stomach disorders
- Weight Issues
- Food Allergies
If you always have an upset stomach this chakra may be out of balance. If you are constantly bloated the solar plexus may be affecting your intestines and causing these symptoms.
Also if weight loss or weight gain is a problem for you this chakra may have something to do with it. Kidney and gallbladder stones will be possible if the solar plexus is in need of healing. If you are currently experiencing food sensitivities, there’s a good chance this chakra is out of balance.

My Story – Why I Needed a Solar Plexus Chakra Healing
I was getting really bad stomach pain for months. I was bloated and felt like my organs were swelled.
My chiropractor told me I might have food allergies so I did one of those blood tests that tell you what your so-called food allergies/sensitivities are. The results came back as the usual food sensitivities, wheat, eggs, dairy, peanuts, and soy.
I thought it was weird because I never had any food allergies or sensitivities before this. This made me skeptical because there were some weeks that my stomach felt good and I was eating all those foods that I wasn’t supposed to eat. I didn’t understand what was going on. Other people I know have gotten the same blood tests done and had the exact same results. How can everyone be allergic to wheat, dairy, peanuts, and soy? Something didn’t add up. I needed to investigate more.
I cut out those foods for a while. It was very difficult though as my body was weak, restless, I couldn’t focus and didn’t feel satisfied. My stomach still hurt even after cutting them out. There had to be something else going on.
I went to a health fair and as I walked up to one of the healing booths the practitioner lady told me that she could feel my solar plexus chakra was all shriveled up. I explained that yes, I’ve had this pain for months. She had me lay on the table so she could perform a solar plexus chakra healing. Within 15 minutes of this healing, I was feeling better. I wasn’t 100% right after that but I was feeling better.
From that day on I made a point to balance my chakras as often as I remembered, focusing mostly on my solar plexus. Sometimes I was clearing and balancing it several times a day. I ate whatever I wanted and focused on the color yellow in my food choices. Within a month I was feeling 100% again.
Now the only time my stomach ever hurts is if I try a new supplement that doesn’t agree with me. But thankfully food does not hurt my stomach at all. I couldn’t imagine cutting out all those food groups and limiting myself so much and thankfully I don’t have to.
What I’ve Learned from Having My Solar Plexus Chakra Healing
Food sensitives are a SYMPTOM of having an imbalanced solar plexus chakra and I wouldn’t have them if my solar plexus was balanced. The sensitivity showed up during the time my solar plexus was out of balance.
This does not mean that I will have these sensitives forever, only when my third chakra is imbalanced. The food sensitivities disappeared after I brought my solar plexus into balance. The food sensitivity symptoms appeared in order to show me that I need to heal my solar plexus. If I hadn’t done a solar plexus chakra healing my food sensitivities would probably have gotten worse.
Since the solar plexus can cause physical as well as emotional imbalances, during this time is when I had horrible social anxiety. It was trying to get my attention by giving me physical as well as emotional symptoms.
After about a month of doing the solar plexus chakra healing and also performing a few other tricks of my own my social anxiety completely disappeared.
I make a point to clear my solar plexus every day and I feel much better since doing that. I feel like myself again. When it was out of balance I did not feel like myself. My body now feels great and I have a ton of confidence again.
How Does Your Solar Plexus Become Imbalanced?
Not Owning & Speaking Your Truth
If you don’t stand up for yourself and speak your truth your solar plexus will shrink and become imbalanced. Your self-confidence is connected to your solar plexus, therefore if you aren’t confident in standing up for yourself it will begin to deflate as you are not owning your truth.
If you don’t think you are good enough it will affect your solar plexus. It also works in the opposite way; if you are too confident and think you are better than everyone your solar plexus will expand too much and you will also get issues.
Your Whole Chakra System Is Affected if One of Them is Imbalanced
Other chakras affect the chakras that are right beside them. It is all one system and if one chakra is out it will throw the whole system out of balance.
Let’s say your sacral chakra is tiny and deflated, your solar plexus will step up and expand to make up for the imbalance. Therefore, your solar plexus will be out of balance by being overactive as it makes up for what the sacral chakra is lacking.
Solar Plexus Chakra Healing – How to Heal & Balance Your Third Chakra
1. Focus on the Color Yellow
Bring more yellow into your life. Eat yellow foods, wear yellow or look at yellow pictures as this will bring the vitality that you need into your life.
When you need a certain color in your life, you will naturally gravitate towards it. So, you may be wearing more yellow or bringing more yellow into your life without even realizing it.
Just by looking at this color, it will activate your solar plexus and will naturally help to heal it.
2. Get a Solar Plexus Chakra Healing
Going to a healer or someone who knows what they are doing with respect to the chakras is always a good thing to try. Some of them are very in tune with the chakras and they can give you more advice on what they find. Reiki healers are a good thing to look into.
3. Heal Your Solar Plexus Chakra Yourself
You can also balance this chakra yourself. All you have to do is imagine a bright yellow ball of energy swirling in front of and behind your belly button. Imagine this energy clearing any blocks you have in this area and healing any holes you might see in this chakra. Breathe the yellow light into your stomach and let it fully expand inside of you. Continue to do this until you feel that your solar plexus is perfectly healed and balanced. You can do this several times a day, it only takes a few minutes.
4. Get More Sunlight!
Sitting out in the sun will help to heal the solar plexus chakra. You can also imagine the sun is beating down on you. How does the warm sun feel on your skin? Imagine it as if you are actually outside experiencing it.
Bottom Line: Solar Plexus Chakra Healings Are Important
It is very important to do a solar plexus chakra healing when this chakra is out of balance as it controls your personal power. If you don’t heal your solar plexus then it will continue to give you both physical and emotional issues.
Try to take time every day to balance each one of your chakras to keep everything running smoothly. Speak your truth often and check-in to see if your stomach area has any pain. If you notice any symptoms above, it is a good idea to do a solar plexus chakra healing.
