3 Ways To Activate Your Third Eye Chakra
The Third Eye can sometimes be a tricky chakra to open up. Often it is sluggish and takes practice to get things moving. If you are finding that you are having trouble with opening up or activating your Third Eye Chakra, I have a few ideas that may help you.
Before I go into the list of how’s, we may want to ask ourselves why we want to open up this Chakra. Setting intentions are a great way to start with opening up this Chakra. Do we want to tap into a heightened sense of awareness? Or perhaps to practice lucid dreaming? Maybe you would like to tap into your intuition more to help you with everyday life. Whatever your reason is, it is a great idea to get clear on it and set it before you start.
Meditation is where it’s at. Start with setting aside 10 minutes everyday to just sit and focus on your breathing. Allow yourself to practice being in the moment. It’s important to learn how to quiet your mind so that you can tap into the things your aren’t sensing, seeing or hearing. Once you have practiced focusing on your breathing and ensuring that you are taking in deep calming breaths, start to visualize clearing out your Third Eye Chakra. You can do this by bringing white light in through your crown and allow it to envelope the Third Eye, or you can visualize a hallway and walk towards a door that opens up to bright white light. Play around with this and see what feels best for you. Balancing your other chakras within your meditation will also help you to open up that Third Eye Chakra.
Secondly, I would look at detoxing your body. Water intake is important here. Make sure you are drinking enough water and that the PH of your water is at a minimum of 7. A very simple way of bringing up the water PH level is to add lemon to it. Most tap water or bottled water is sitting at a level of 5-7 PH. Removing fluoride from your body is important too. This is known to help de-calcify the Pineal Gland, which is associated with the Third Eye Chakra. Look at switching your toothpaste to a natural one and find out if there is fluoride in your water. If so, you will want to get a filtration system that takes this out. Lastly, look at increasing your vegetable intake. I’m talking about your greens…not carrots or corn or peas. Leafy greens and any green veggie. This is going to help detox and unclog that Chakra.
The third tip I have for you is to use a crystal to help open up that Third Eye Chakra. When I first started working on opening up my Third Eye I used Fluorite, Moonstone and Selenite. These are still my favorite go to stones if I want a boost in that Chakra. You can also try Amethyst or Sodalite. A sure way to tell if that stone is working is if you start to feel tingling or a shift (lightening) in denseness in your Third Eye.
There are many ways to open up that Chakra. These 3 are my favorite and what I found to be most successful.

These are all great ideas Drea. I think I have used all of them at some point or other. Another one I like is music. Sometimes I will find some good Chakra music on youtube and play it while I'm going to sleep.
You can really feel if your Third Eye is clearing out/opening up when you feel that pressure in your forehead, its a pretty cool feeling.
Yea! Good one! Music works too!
diet is very important and setting intention. Figure out what motivates you and what habits you want to cultivate, Third eye is very important when you want to see what you have to work on. What we see and perceive in others is what is there to teach us a lesson about ourselves. No blame, no judgement, just a way of opening us up to see areas where we could improve our love for self…there are no others,,, and when we get to that part in our growth then you can see the beauty and love that is underneath all the gunk we have stored. Flourite is one of my favorite stones…reminds me of water flowing. let it wash over me, cleansing and just washing away, what I have perceived to be REAL. Not real, just an illusion and a gate that needs to be opened…let it wash through me, taking the gritty sand of illusion….amazing how clear we can become then. I know what I am trying to say, but my words get in the way, sometimes. haha when you open that third eye…there is no turning back… if you read ACIM, it explains the illusions….be ready for magic and miracles….
Thanks Reta! Always love to hear your thoughts! 😀
Great post. The flouride in toothpaste is really bad, which is why I only use non-flouride toothpaste now. I have also found that the more I use the third eye chakra and acknowledge the use of it, the more it opens up and gets stronger.
For sure! It’s just like exercising a muscle. 🙂
