• Third Eye Chakra: forehead or in between the eyebrows

Root Chakra

When it comes to the physical body, your root chakra relates to the hips, knees, legs, and feet.
On the other hand, emotionally speaking, it’s associated with feeling safe and grounded. 

Gongs and drums are the instruments most suited to generating the deeper tones typically associated with the root chakra. Tibetan and crystal bowls with a lower tuning can also assist open this chakra. Make sure to listen to them on the root frequency of 432 Hz.

To activate this chakra, you can chant “Lam” or “Nam Lam” for between three and eleven minutes while playing one of the instruments mentioned or listening to a recording. 

 

Sacral Chakra

Like the root chakra, you can use gongs, drums, lower-toned Tibetan, and crystal bowls to activate this chakra. By the way, the sacral chakra frequency to use is 480 Hz.

As for the mantras, you can repeatedly chant “Vam” or “Mam Vam.”

 

Solar Plexus Chakra

Throat Chakra
