In the journey of self-discovery and personal growth, meditation has emerged as an invaluable tool for enhancing one's spiritual, mental, and emotional well-being. Among the various meditation practices, the 3rd eye chakra meditation holds a unique place due to its focus on awakening our inner vision and intuition. At SOL SPA, the 24 hour smart spa, we offer 10-minute 3rd eye chakra meditation sessions inside of our infrared saunas. We refer to these sessions as Hot Chakra.

One very important part of getting the most of your Hot Chakra sessions at SOL SPA is understanding it. The 3rd eye chakra is often referred to as the seat of intuition and higher consciousness. Located in the center of the forehead, between the eyebrows, this chakra is associated with insight, perception, imagination, and spiritual clarity. When the 3rd eye chakra is balanced and activated, it can lead to a heightened sense of awareness, improved intuition, and a deeper connection to your inner self. The best part about SOL SPA's Hot Chakra sessions is that it combines the benefits of meditation with the benefits of infrared heat. I find that the biggest difference when performing this inside the sauna vs. an air conditioned room, is the extra boost of relaxation coming from the infrared heat. This is because the heat from sauna therapy increases activity in the parasympathetic nervous system (PNS), which controls the body's ability to relax. When PNS increases, it lowers the resting heart rate and regulates heart rate variability, promoting overall heart health as well.

Committing just 10 minutes each day to Hot Chakra can yield a plethora of benefits that extend beyond the meditation session itself. Here are some of the advantages you can expect to experience:

Enhanced Intuition: Regular meditation on the 3rd eye chakra helps you tap into your intuitive abilities, allowing you to make decisions that are aligned with your true self.

Improved Mental Clarity: As you focus on this chakra, you can experience improved mental clarity and concentration, making it easier to navigate the complexities of daily life. As an additional bonus, infrared saunas help to improve blood circulation throughout the body. Improved blood flow to the brain helps to boost overall mental alertness and task performance.

Stress Reduction: Meditation, in general, is known for its stress-relieving benefits. The 3rd eye chakra meditation can help calm the mind, reducing anxiety and promoting overall emotional well-being.

Heightened Awareness: With an activated 3rd eye chakra, you'll find yourself fostering a deeper connection to the world around you.

Enhanced Imagination: This chakra is closely tied to creativity and imagination. Regular meditation can stimulate your creative thinking and help you see possibilities beyond the ordinary.

Incorporating SOL SPA's Hot Chakra into your routine can be a profound step towards deepening your connection with your inner self, enhancing your intuition, and cultivating mental clarity. With 24/7 access, there’s no excuse not to! So, stop by the spa that never closes, and embark on your journey. With regular practice, you may find that your inner vision becomes clearer, leading to a greater understanding of yourself and the world around you!
