Is your body holding on to anger? An expert answers
Just because you have stopped feeling angry does not mean your body is not holding on to it. Sometimes, instead of facing anger head-on, we hide it under busyness or trying to stay positive all the time. However, what we do not understand is that our body holds on to what the mind tries to push away. Do you wake up at odd hours with tight shoulders? Do you get annoyed over tiny things? Well, these might seem random, but they are often signs that your body is carrying something deeper. ALSO READ: Think you have only 7 chakras in your body? The 8th one is the most powerful Somatic and Kundalini teacher Brett Larkin shares how you can tell if your body is holding on to anger. If small frustrations make you react in a big way, it could mean there is unresolved anger sitting in your nervous system, even if you think you are doing fine. Constant clenching is your body's quiet way of saying, 'Hey, I am still holding onto something!' Physical tension often shows up when emotions have not been fully released. That jumpy, agitated feeling you cannot explain? It might be anger that never got a chance to move through you. Unprocessed emotions can turn into excess, jittery energy. In traditional Chinese medicine, this time of night is linked to the liver, the organ connected to anger. If you often find yourself wide awake during these hours, your body might be trying to process stored emotions. If slowing down makes you feel uneasy, it could be because stillness leaves space for old emotions, like anger, to rise to the surface. Sometimes, we stay busy to avoid feeling what is underneath. Anger does not always explode outward. Sometimes, it gets stuffed down so deep that it leaves you feeling numb. If you feel disconnected from your emotions, your body might be protecting you from feelings you have not fully faced yet.

Soul Star Chakra: Think you have only 7 chakras in your body? The 8th one is the most powerful
Most of us have heard of the seven main chakras in the body. But did you know there is an eighth chakra? It is called the Soul Star Chakra or the Aura Chakra, and it is believed to be one of the most powerful energy centers human beings have. The Soul Star Chakra connects you to your higher self, your divine purpose, and even the universe as a whole. While the seven main chakras are located within the physical body, the 8th chakra is part of your energetic body. According to Master Energy Healer Patricia Bonnard, this chakra acts as a bridge between your earthly life and the spiritual realm. It is like a gateway to your soul's wisdom and your true essence. Keep reading to know all about the soul star chakra in detail. ALSO READ: Do you know that blowing the Shankh activates your Vishuddha (throat) Chakra? Unlike the other chakras, the Soul Star Chakra sits outside your body. It is about 6 to 12 inches above the top of your head, just above your crown chakra. Some say it is closer; others believe it could be as far as three feet away. Either way, it is in your energy field, not your physical form. And because of its position above the crown chakra, it is often referred to as the eighth chakra. This chakra is all about spiritual awareness, intuition, and tapping into higher states of consciousness. It is believed to give us access to other realms, like the ones explored in past-life healing, shamanic journeys, or psychic experiences. In Sanskrit, it is called Vyapini, which means "omnipresent." It represents the idea that we are all part of something limitless and universal and helps dissolve the illusion that we are separate individuals. Instead, the Soul Star Chakra reminds us that we are all connected through one universal energy. Think of your higher self as the version of you that sees things clearly, without the filters of fear, ego, or past experiences. The 8th chakra is how we connect to that version of ourselves. It holds clarity beyond the everyday worries, emotions, and beliefs that can cloud our judgment. It is like having a direct line to your soul's wisdom.

A post shared by Brett Larkin 🧘♂️Uplifted Yoga (@larkinyogatv) So, while the traditional seven chakras focus on your physical and emotional well-being, the 8th chakra is about remembering that you are more than just a body; you are a soul with deep cosmic roots.
