Let me ask, do you:
Sometimes feel as though the chaos and suffering in the world incapacitates you?
Do you describe yourself as a bleeding heart?
Do you believe that ‘all the feels’ is a heart chakra thing?
Important Fourth Chakra Facts:
- Two chakra openings, one opening to the front of the body, one to the back
- Comes online at adulthood, the last of the chakras to have an ‘age’ association
- Beyond love (romantic, friendship, familial), the heart chakra is organized around communion with all from an individuated sense of self

It’s too much to bear and carry.
