Basic exercises for connecting to your higher self
Exercises: Insight and Praying
Training type: Relaxation Training
Element: Water
Chakra: Crown Chakra Exercises
Subtle body: Emotional Body
Requirements
Insight and Praying are two crown chakra exercises in a sitting position. They are comfortable poses, and everybody can do them.
Outcome physical
These two practices are techniques to connect to your higher self and the light within. Through comfortable poses, the body relaxes and loosens the inner defend mechanism to identify just with the physical body.
Outcome spiritual
These two exercises harmonize the emotional body, which is part of your aura. Once you let go of all pressure, you will feel a deep emotional relief. Your body will calm down and connect to your soul on a profound and pressure-free level through comfortable standing poses.

Relaxation Circuit: Alternate 15-30 seconds of each activity with other relaxation exercises such as In awe, One with all, Connecting to heaven, and Grateful to spirit.
