After going to my 2nd acupuncture session, and starting to do root-chakra meditation, I have been able to release tension I have felt on top of my head. My mind feels more open again and I'm more present in my body. Much of the problems I have felt, have been due to the tensions I held in what I believe is my crown chakra. But to be able to release it, I had to work with my lower chakras (which I find pretty non-intuitive), which I got from reading a blog on chakra work.
Working with chakras really resonate with me, and I realize that many of the issues are rooted in my lower chakras. I have for example not been able to trust my relationships and felt uncertainness in belonging, and much of my behavior have been guided to get around this feeling, rather than addressing the uncertain feeling in itself. Feels nice to know that this is not "who I am" but rather an imbalance that I can worked with.
I have ordered a book on chakras to educate myself further on the subject called Eastern body, western mind by Anodea Judith, who have been credited on her writings on chakras and psychology. The book is combining eastern philosophies on chakas with western Jungian pshchology. I always believe that your understanding on a subject can be more profound if you combine two or more ways to look at it, why I am looking forward on this reading on a subject that already have gotten my interest.

Quote:In EASTERN BODY, WESTERN MIND, chakra authority Anodea Judith brought a fresh approach to the yoga-based Eastern chakra system, adapting it to the Western framework of Jungian psychology, somatic therapy, childhood developmental theory, and metaphysics
