Struggling Taoist Practitioner

[Sunshine007]

Hello, everybody!!! I am an 30 yrs old Engineer, practicing meditation for last few years. But right now, I am going through, what appears to be healing crisis. I learnt meditation on my own and I do not have any masters. So, through this forum, which I am a member through facebook, I would like to come in contact with like minded people and learn new things.

My problem right now is blockage at sacral chakra which seems to be too hard for me to crack. So, if anybody could suggest me techniques to open the blockage would be very helpful.

 

Thanks and regards,

Sunshine

Before I do a standing meditation, I do a very slow Yoga Sun Salutation. I've got a slipped disc and it loosens up the muscles, but I think flexing the back helps the energy flow up and down it more. So, what you might want to consider is doing some exercises that free up that region of the body. Just look up any simple stretches and they will help the blood, and other fluids, flow more easily, which will only help clear the blockage.

Thank you Soaring Crane and Miffymog. And Miffymog, I have practiced sun salutation but just not on regular basis. Thank you.

In that area is the first "knot" = Granthi = Bandha

It's not a problem, Sunshine, you're knocking on the door at the threshold.

 

You are aligning with the truth of your true nature, and as you do the symptomology of the old WAY will clear.

 

Your knots are protection until such times you can fly without wings...

 

Are you "willing to see [your] magnificence"?

I'm no chakra expert and may be barkin up too physical a tree but rolling back and forth is good to get knots out of the back.  Sit cross legged, have your back and neck curved, roll down, then back up.   Nice practice to unkink the back physically and perhaps energetically.  

In the practice called Stillness-Movement meditation instead of being still while you meditate, you have a slight natural rocking motion.  Seems to help loosen things up near the sacral area.  You might give it a try.

Thank you Horus, SonOfTheGods and thelerner. I will try that.
