What is the Heart Chakra?
The heart chakra, otherwise known as Anahata; in Sanskrit meaning "unbeaten" is found in the center of our chest. It represents where the physical and the spiritual meet. Green in color, associating the element of air- it is the connection of all things!
What does it associate?
Unconditional love, compassion, and joy. Deep compassion and truths that cannot be expressed in words.
Self-love and love for others
All of your internal and external relationships
Your willingness to forgive, accept and move on
Personal growth and transformation
Your ability to grieve, and achieve peace
Compassion and empathy
Center of awareness
Signs your fourth chakra may be out of balance:
The heart chakra can become imbalanced as a result of life experiences that are strong emotionally, physical ailments, or even changes in your environment.
Here are some symptoms of an imbalanced heart chakra-
Being overly defensive
Emotionally closed off- not able to give or receive love freely
Jealousy- not being able to trust
Dependence- always craving ones attention
Feeling the need to always please everyone
Playing the victim
Antisocial; social anxieties
Holding grudges
Ideas to balance the heart chakra
Cultivate your appreciation for beauty, whether it’s in nature, people or in the arts
Practice self-care- from a good bath with rose essential oil, to yoga poses for opening the heart area
Self-compassion and acceptance, especially with regards to your emotions and body
Engage in activities that feed your heart
Focus on receiving, even if you are typically the giver
Express your gratitude, even if it’s in silence, or on your own terms
Take a walk! Being out in nature, breathing in fresh air is one of the best things for your mental health
How can Bodhi help?

Using technology to increase access to youth mental health support may offer a practical way for young people to reach guidance, safe-spaces, and early help without feeling overwhelmed by traditional systems. Digital platforms, helplines, and apps could give them a chance to seek support privately, connect with trained listeners-orexplore resources that might ease their emotional load. This gentle shift toward tech-based support may encourage youth to open-up at their own pace, especially when in-person help feels too heavy to approach.
There is always a chance that these tools-quietly make support feel closer than before, creating moments where help appears just a tap away. Even a small digital interaction might bring a sense of comfort. And somewhere in that space, you…

I really connected with the way the heart chakra is described here, especially the focus on connection, balance, and expressing who we truly are. For me, opening the heart is also about honoring where we come from and the bonds that shape us over time. I notice that personal symbols can support that feeling, whether through mindful practices or meaningful accessories. Wearing something that represents identity and belonging feels grounding and authentic. That’s one of the reasons I’m drawn to pieces from the collegiate collection, where design and personal connection meet naturally. Small, intentional choices like these can quietly support emotional openness and remind us of the connections that matter most.
I checked my land map and ownership details through the Bihar Bhulekh site, and the experience was smooth. It’s a very helpful platform for anyone who wants to verify property details in Bihar.
