Basic exercises for opening up to the inner voice

Exercises: Silence and Introspection
Training type: Relaxation Training
Element: Water
Chakra: Throat Chakra Exercises
Subtle body: Emotional Body

Requirements

Silence and Introspection are two exercises you do on the floor. They are comfortable poses, and everybody can do them.

Outcome physical

These two practices are techniques to relax and harmonize the neck area. Through a soft pose for the neck area, the body relaxes and loosens the inner defend mechanism, which tightens the neck and throat.

Outcome spiritual

These two throat chakra 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. Through the soft movements, your body will calm down and connect to your soul on a profound and pressure-free level.

Best ways to do

Beginner Circuit: Alternate 15-30 seconds of Silence and Introspection for 3 circuits.

Relaxation Circuit: Alternate 15-30 seconds of each activity with other relaxation exercises such as Going deep inside, Feeling blue, Awakening, and Listening to self.

Relaxation/Flexibility Circuit: Alternate 15-30 seconds of these two exercises with flexibility exercises, such as Side twist neck, Side bend, Neck stretch, and Spine stretch.
