The solar plexus is the energy center located above the belly button and below the sternum. It is the area where "it feels like I was punched in the gut" exists. The essence of this energy center is self-esteem, self-confidence, personal power, personal emotions and desires. It is your gut instinct, always available to guide you.
When there is a wobble or disconnect in this energy system it may look like digestive problems, ulcers, low back pain, low self-esteem, controlling personality or oversensitivity to criticism. You might tell yourself, I'm not enough, I'm not worthy of love or money or healing. When it is balanced there is a self respect and a respect for others. You believe you are enough, you are worthy and you are a part of life "me too".
It is important to understand that when a belief pattern sets in like a block into one of the energy centers, it creates an excess of energy behind it, which manifests most often as pain, and a wobble ahead of it. In other words, it is not just the solar plexus, in this example, that is out of balance. The pelvis/hip area as well as the heart area are being affected.
B.E.S.T. adjustments are fantastic at clearing the blocks and building circuits self-confidence with love, trusting the gut instinct with ease, knowing what feels like a "yes" to you and following it. I recommend you find a B.E.S.T. practitioner and do the work to clearing and integrating the solar plexus energy if this sounds like you.
Things you can do at home/work:
1. Notice. Become aware of your "I am" statements. Perhaps, it is only in specific situations or around specific people that you feel unworthy or not good enough. Pay attention to that. When your stomach hurts, cramps, or your attention is brought your your stomach or low back, pay attention. The thoughts and feelings at that moment are asking to be noticed, felt and cleared/integrated. Allowing it to be felt, to be noticed is the first piece.
2. Allow without judgement. This can be tricky, until it isn't. Allow yourself to really feel what you are feeling. If it is hurt, anger, frustration, even joy, excitement, have it, feel it. You do not need to name it (like I just did), just allow it to be felt with your mind's attention. How do you know you are judging it? You named it, you created a story around it, you put blame somewhere. Don't beat yourself up if you did this, be grateful for the awareness.
3. Breathe with it. If you feel intensity or even void in the solar plexus, take a deep belly breath and exhale out the feet (or top of the head if that is where your attention goes). Then breathe from where you just exhaled pulling breath into the solar plexus area (let your belly get big like an inflated balloon). Then exhale out through the top of your head maybe with an "ah" sound. Continue to breathe up and down, feeling your emotion and accepting that it is there in service of you. If you can then begin to feel love, love for yourself, love for your awareness, love for the feeling while you breathe above, through, and below the body even more will transform and quicker.
There are more specific breath works as well as the mPower step that are powerful in facilitating the clearing and integrating of personal power. Ask your B.E.S.T. practitioner about these or check out Dr. Sue Morter's site for some videos to help.
