Have you ever wondered "what is an altar"?   Chances are, you already have one or more altars in your home or room, but you hadn’t realized that’s what they are!   A lot of times the word altar can bring up an idea of religion or something that's connected to a church or a temple. But, it doesn’t matter at all what culture or religion you are, it's just a way to express your creativity and connect with your true spirit!   Welcome to episode 4 of Chakra Talk! In this episode, I’m sharing everything I know about different types of altars, and how they’re simply a space to connect with your true self. It can be something as simple as a collection of family photos, or special items you really love.   I’m giving you the history of altars (which dates back millions of years), tips on how to make an altar of your own, how to use one to help you feel better on the days you need it, and ideas of what to include in a traveling altar to give you a sense of home wherever you are.   This tool is sure to make your everyday life a little more magical! It can be a large space or a small one, it doesn't matter at all as long as it has good energy and feels like somewhere you'd like to go to over and over again.    I hope you build your own inspirational space and that it connects you to positive energy and your inner power.   Always remember you have the power inside of you to make all of your dreams come true!   Dream big, magical one!   Carly Loving this episode and want to find more mindfulness activities for kids?

You know those moments when you feel really joyful and purely happy?   Those feelings come when you are connected to your spirit.   What is spirit, you may ask?   Since you can't see it, it makes it difficult to describe, but every spiritual tradition and religion has some connection to spirit.   Welcome to episode 3 of Chakra Talk! In today’s episode, I am guiding you in understanding your spirit! It’s the core truth of who you really are.    It’s where your passion, joy, and true happiness live. I’ll be adding some more tools to your toolkit by helping you uncover ways to connect with spirit, and what it feels like when you’re disconnected from it.    I’m recommending special tools like a Happy Place meditation you can do, how to use the Chakra Kids Oracle Card cards, and Camp Chakra Kids- which is filled with all kinds of activities, projects, meditations, and exercises that help you connect with your true self.    You can use these tools to help you follow your heart and inner voice- so that you're fully connected to spirit when you need it most.   So, until next time, always remember that you have the power inside of you to make all of your dreams come true.   Dream big, magical one!   Carly   Loving this episode and want to find more mindfulness activities for kids?
