We have covered basic knowledge regarding our 7 main chakras, how to heal the root chakra, sacral chakra, solar plexus chakra, heart chakra and throat chakra in the previous posts. In this article, let us talk about the signs of the imbalanced third eye chakra and how to help heal and balance the third eye chakra.
Balanced and well-aligned chakras will bring about holistic well-being, the harmony of body, mind, and spirit. This will make the biological energy in the body vibrate, circulate, and receive the endless source of cosmic energy. And the nature of bio-energy includes factors such as waves, pulses, colors, matter, and information, etc. Therefore, we are able to assist the healing of the imbalanced chakras by utilizing those factors in harmony with the corresponding chakras.
The Sixth Chakra – Third Eye Chakra:
The sixth chakra is associated with light, intuition, and imagination. The feature of this chakra is SEE and the development stage is 8.5-14 years old.
It is illusion that will hurt the third eye chakra. So what is an illusion? Illusion is what looks real but is not the truth.
What can hurt Third Eye Chakra?
– Repressed memories and psychological trauma. After such experiences, some people unconsciously forget completely that memory in order not to have to recall that ”negative” experience anymore. Or they can consciously choose to pretend that it never happened.
– Contradictions in vision, especially during growing up: When you see something and get told an opposite conclusion which prevents you from judging right from wrong. You will get confused which will affect your sixth chakra.
– Shame prevents the person from seeing things more clearly. When you are simply curious and want to learn more about things around you but get told off by your loved ones many times, you will learn to shut down your own third eye chakra.
Signs of Imbalanced Third Eye Chakra
* Weak or Blocked Third Eye Chakra:
– Too focused on the physical world. These people have very poor vision and are only interested in matters of survival, and materialism. Hence, they are not interested in anything related spiritually.
– Unable to consider and accept new ideas or concepts. They tend to just follow the crowd perception, being confined to old understandings that may or may not be true. It is hard to change what’s already set in their mind.
– Not in touch with intuition, lack of imagination.
– Being indecision, poor judgment.
– Lack of vision beyond the physical and lack of faith.
* Overactive Third Eye Chakra:
– If accompanied by a weak root chakra, people will be easily attached to their own illusions.
– There are some people who have special psychic abilities, such as hearing sounds that others cannot hear, seeing things that others cannot see, communicating with invisible entities, etc but consider themselves as ”superior” to others. They are living in illusions. They have such abilities because they have had many lives of spiritual practice. Those psychic abilities or spiritual gifts always come with huge responsibilities and challenges as well.
– Tend to live in an imaginary world.
– Have regular nightmares.
* Physical Issues:
– pineal gland – eye pain, stress, insomnia, headache.
– poor eyesight.
– unable to concentrate, memory loss.
– have hormone dysfunction, stress, depression.
==> Balanced Third Eye Chakra:
– Highly intuitive, have a strong personality and clear thinking.
– Able to tap into divine guidance and see the big picture.
How to Heal and Balance Third Eye Chakra
What to do:
* Deep meditation. The higher chakra we work with, the more challenging it becomes. Therefore, we need to be able to reach the deep meditative state in order to achieve higher awareness.
* Yoga: child’s pose, wide-legged forward fold, lotus pose, legs up the wall, downward dog.
* Grounding: this will strengthen your root chakra. You can do this by walking barefoot on the ground, being close to nature, trees, animals as much as possible. Take good care of your physical and survival needs.
* Doing puzzles, reading, learning something (education). Try to be open to new ideas. Be curious to explore life from different angles.
* Candle gazing, moon-gazing, sungazing.
* Decalcify your pineal gland. This gland is directly linked to the sixth chakra so try to avoid products and water sources that contain fluoride.
* Check the reality that is happening in your life. If you meditate and get a lot of energy, feeling happy, but life doesn’t change at all, the possibility is that you are doing it wrong and falling into an illusion. If you meditate properly, your life must have a positive transformation.
Food: eggplant, plums, blackberries, purple potatoes, peppers, cabbage, grapes and kale.
Positive Affirmations: speak out loud or in your mind several times every day, or write down on sticker notes and stick them around your home and/or work environment to remind yourself.
* I trust and follow my intuition.
* I see all things in clarity.
* I am connected with the wisdom from within.
* I can manifest my vision.
* I am the source of my truth.
Chant: chant SHAM to yourself slowly “shshshaaammm” while meditating or doing chores during the day.
Crystals: lapis lazuli, amethyst, sapphire, iolite, sodalite. Bring them with you, put them next to your bed or hold them in your hands while meditating.
Aroma: geranium, basil, jasmine, lavender, marjoram, frankincense, Juniper, Clary Sage, Rosemary.
Music: 852Hz Solfeggio music.
Color: wear indigo/royal blue clothes or accessories, have more indigo/royal blue objects around the house.
Energy Healing: Reiki, Acupuncture, Quantum Healing, with the intention to heal and balance the third eye chakra.

Thank you for your comprehensive article. I love the topic.
The third eye chakra is BLUE and is located in the center of your forehead. It governs your intuition and oversees your psychic abilities. When this chakra is balanced, you will have a deep sense of knowing and trust in yourself and the world around you.
There are many things that can block or imbalance your third eye chakra. Some common obstacles include: fear, doubt, insecurity, anger, resentment, envy, and jealously. If you are experiencing any of these emotions regularly, it’s a sign that your third eye chakra needs some attention.
The best way to heal an imbalanced or blocked third eye chakra is through meditation and visualization exercises. You can also use crystals and essential oils to help restore balance and stimulate your psychic abilities.
Hi Bob, I am glad that you find the topic of healing chakras is helpful and insightful! I really appreciate your sharing more details on healing the third eye chakra!
As I was reading your description of a blocked third eye, I thought of my father. And maybe mine is overactive? Although we always had a good relationship, this may be why we couldn’t see eye to eye on many things. I know I can implement many of the solutions to this right away and I’ll have to learn about some of the other ways! Thank you for posting!
Hi Cynthia
Thank you for sharing your own experiences with the third eye chakra and your father’s as well. I am glad you can have a new perspective on the relationship between you and your father. I believe you will be able to balance your third eye chakra and see life from a higher point of view while still having a strong foundation on the physical level.
All the best,
Grace
