Ajna Chakra Kriya For Clarity, Focus and Peace

Autumn Adams

Welcome to your Ajna Chakra Kriya practice! This journey is all about awakening your third eye, the epicenter of your intuition and inner wisdom. Before we dive in, take a moment to find your perfect seat. Maybe you’re on the ground, or perhaps in a cozy chair. Either way, sit tall with your spine straight and your heart open. Close your eyes and turn your focus inward.

Grounding Breath

Begin to connect with your breath. Take a deep inhale through your nose, letting your lungs fill up completely. Hold it for just a second. Now, exhale slowly and fully through your nose, releasing any tension with each breath out. Keep up this rhythm: a deep inhale, a brief hold, and a full, slow exhale. Feel yourself grounding more with each and every breath.

In this moment, remind yourself that even amidst the chaos of life, you can find peace and clarity within yourself. Allow this realization to sink in: you are not overwhelmed—you are empowered to find your center.

Setting Intention

Shift your awareness to the space between your eyebrows—your Ajna chakra, or third eye. This is where your intuition and higher wisdom reside. As you breathe, set an intention for your practice. Maybe you want clarity, to trust your intuition more, to build focus or presence, or to deepen your awareness. Whatever it is, hold it in your mind’s eye..

In this space, let go of any doubts you have about your ability to trust your intuition. Know that the answers you seek are already within you; you have the power to listen to your inner voice and follow its guidance.

Breathwork: Nadi Shodhana (Alternate Nostril Breathing)

We’ll start with Nadi Shodhana to balance your energy and clear your mind. Here’s how:

  1. Close your right nostril with your thumb.
  2. Inhale deeply through your left nostril.
  3. Close your left nostril with your ring finger, releasing your thumb from your right nostril.
  4. Exhale fully through your right nostril.
  5. Inhale through your right nostril, then close it and exhale through your left.

As you keep this pattern going for a few rounds, focus on the breath flowing in and out. I like to envision the breath as light flowing up to my third eye on each inhale. With each exhale, imagine clearing away the mental clutter and confusion that may have been weighing you down. With each inhale, embrace the clarity and peace that is now becoming your reality.

Third Eye, Ajna Focused Kriya: Breath and Visualization

Time to dive deeper into your third eye:

  1. Inhale deeply.
  2. As you hold your breath, visualize a vibrant light glowing at the center of your forehead. It may have a color. Indigo is often associated with the third eye.
  3. Exhale and let this indigo light expand and flow outward, filling your mind with clarity and peace.
  4. Each breath expanding the light filling this energetic center.

Repeat this for a few more rounds. As you breathe in, see that indigo light at your third eye, and on your exhale, let it expand, clearing away any lingering mental fog. Remember, you are not bound by any mental clutter; you are releasing it with every breath.

Silent Meditation

Now, let go of controlling your breath. Just observe it as it flows naturally. Keep your awareness on the space between your eyebrows. Visualize that steady indigo light at your third eye. Let thoughts come and go like passing clouds. If your mind wanders, gently bring it back to the sensation or visualization of your Ajna chakra.

In this silent observation, allow yourself to let go of the belief that you must control your thoughts to meditate effectively. Instead, find peace in the flow of your breath and the gentle rhythm of your thoughts.

Closing

To wrap up, bring your hands together at your heart center. Take a moment to feel the energy you’ve cultivated. Trust that your intuition and inner guidance are growing stronger with every breath, every moment of awareness. You are not just a passive observer of your thoughts; you are actively shaping your inner landscape.

Take one last deep breath in, and as you exhale, slowly open your eyes, carrying the clarity and insight from this practice into your day.

Closing Mantra

Let’s seal this practice with a gentle OM. Inhale deeply… OMMMMM…

OM is the bija mantra associated with the sixth chakra. You can learn more about it here.
