We all have cycles – men and women alike. Our hormonal ups and downs are what draws us together to make the next generation, or what makes us moody and likely to want to be alone. I have a hard time focusing on just one chakra – I like to tend to them all every day\u2026 But I wonder\u2026 does it make sense to focus your mediation according to your biorhythms? Morning versus night, and various stages of your hormonal cycles might make your mind more able to focus on specific chakras or topics. For example, week two of a woman\u2019s cycle might be a great time for tantra, or efforts focused on the root and sacral chakras, perhaps? Whereas, the end of the cycle might be a good time to focus on more spiritual maters and the crown chakra. I could see a method of working your way up from root to crown over the course of you cycle. I have no idea if this would work or not so I am putting it out there to you!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
