About this session
- Deepens self-love
- Eases old resentments
- Sharpens inner listening
- Relaxes body and mind
Nalaya Chakana leads you up through the seven chakras, one breath each, from root to crown. Then your attention settles in the heart. You notice how it feels, bring two faces to mind, and let a warm blanket of love for yourself grow wider. The session ends by travelling back down to the root.
It suits anyone carrying a grudge, a regret or a tender spot, and anyone who wants a quiet check-in with their own heart. The pace is slow and spacious, which makes it a natural fit for late evening, the small hours or a still early morning.

Questions people ask
Still unsure? Ask your assistant anything about this session.
What does Anahata mean, and why does it matter here?
Anahata is the Sanskrit name of the heart chakra, and it means unstruck. The idea is that beneath the heart of past experiences lies a place of purity and strength. The whole session aims to soften the walls around that place so you can rest in it.
Why do you move through all seven chakras before the heart?
You rest your awareness in each centre in turn: root, sacral, solar plexus, heart, throat, third eye and crown. Each gets one breath of inhale, hold and exhale, and you simply notice the sensations without changing anything. The idea is that aligning these centres makes it easier to hear your heart, which sits as the bridge between the upper and lower ones.
What am I asked to do when I think of someone I love and someone who hurt me?
You choose the first person who comes to mind each time, without overthinking, however close they are or whether they are still in your life. You watch what your heart and body do as memories, images and sensations arrive. You aren't asked to fix anything. You just notice, then choose to release that energy and forgive yourself and the other person.
What is the blanket of love?
It is an image for the love you hold for yourself. You wrap yourself in it and let it expand and expand while you breathe and notice your body and heart. Then you breathe in love and out love, and you love the beauty, the mistakes, the scars, the playfulness and your willingness to love, even when it scares you.
Why does the meditation end by going back down through the chakras?
The closing round runs from crown to root, with one breath at each centre. Its purpose is to ground the energy back into your body and the earth after the open, tender heart work. It leaves you steady rather than floating.
What if I feel nothing when I rest my attention in my heart?
The meditation allows for that. It asks whether the heart feels restricted or expansive, heavy or light, or perhaps like nothing at all. Each answer is fine, because the practice is to observe without needing to change anything.
