Our bodies are made up of seven chakras and the most important one among them is the sixth one, the third eye. Also known as the 'Ajna chakra', our third eye is considered to be extremely powerful because it is a potent source of intuitive wisdom which can guide you towards creative pursuits, do away with negativity, provide knowledgeable insight and perhaps lead you to the highest form of intelligence helping open your eyes towards what needs attention. When acting in full force, the third eye can help you see clearly, clear mental blockages and also improve mental flexibilities. In fact, the third eye has been hailed as the most important form of sense in many cultures and activating it is considered to be the most crucial. What if we told you, there is a certain form of meditation which can open up your powerful sixth sense and get you in touch with your inner self? While the third eye carries the benefit of connecting us to our gut feelings and work one step ahead of our basic five senses, it mostly stays dormant or closed. That's where the benefits of meditation come into play. According to healers, meditation is the simplest and the best way to awaken, vitalize and activate your third eye.

Meditation helps clear out the negative toxins from the body, channelize your energies and help you concentrate better. Forms of meditation can also help you be self-aware, active your Ajna chakra, shift your state of consciousness to higher states with every session, thereby taking away anxiety and worries from the root and transcend into the innermost thought processes and make it work at the fullest capacity. Doing so can also put back focus on your mind, improve concentration and boost clarity.
