    Meaning

    Anahata means 'unstruck', the sound that arises without any two things striking. It is the bridge between the three lower and three upper centres, pictured as a twelve-petalled lotus with a six-pointed star.

    When Balanced and Blocked

    Balanced, you give and receive love freely. Blocked, there may be grief, loneliness, people-pleasing or a closed heart.

    Practice

    Loving-kindness meditation, backbends, forgiveness practices and chanting YAM.
