Crown chakra, also known as the “thousand-petaled lotus”, is the 7th energy center from the bottom, located at the top of your head.
The main function of the crown chakra is to connect you with the Divine force and infinite source of healing energy through spirituality, self-realization, knowing, and enlightenment.
You can think of your highest chakra as a receiver of consciousness from the Source, which keeps you connected with the Divine and your Higher Self. This chakra offers you a sense of awareness that there is a deeper significance and order in life, regulating all of creation.
One of the most important things you can do when working with your crown chakra is to commit to the path of absolute surrender to the higher power.
When you decide to embark on your own path of enlightenment and give up the myth of separation, your spirit will be lifted to the highest levels of awareness.
Now, let’s have a look at some of my favorite healing methods to unblock your crown chakra and merge with the energy of the Universe.

1. Crown Chakra Meditation
Mediation is the most important practice for unlocking the power of your crown chakra. It is a necessary habit to cultivate if you want to clear the mind, expand your awareness, and develop the ability to listen to your inner voice. I am sure that you are most likely familiar with the benefits of meditation, as many people talk about them quite a lot these days.
However, your crown chakra is directly correlated with your brain, and any meditative practice, which brings stillness to your mind will be very beneficial to your crown chakra. When your mind is still and calm, your brain waves begin to shift to the alpha state, and you begin to connect to the infinite source of information.
There are many different forms of meditation, such as:
- Guided meditation
- Mindfulness meditation
- Concentration meditation
- Active movement meditation (such as Tai Chi or Yoga)
- Mantra meditation
- Transcendental meditation
Pick the one you like the most, and make it a daily habit to quiet your mind and nourish your spirit.
2. Crown Chakra Silence Exercise
Whether you’re into meditation or not, spending some time in silence (alone or with your friend) is also a great way to cultivate deeper awareness and practice being present.
Intentional silence is actually an ancient, sacred practice, also known as ‘Mauna’. Practitioners of Mauna normally start by simply limiting their speech to an absolute minimum. Eventually, you can refrain from reading, writing, and minimize contact with others.
Before you start, make sure you eliminate all of the distractions from your environment and open yourself up to the power of Mauna. This is also a great exercise to do when you feel overwhelmed or stuck in life. Silence exercise will allow you to open up your mind to new ideas and inspiration.
3. Crown Chakra Visualization
Because your crown chakra is located right at the top of your head, it is not difficult to rest your awareness on that area and visualize it. The best way to do it is to envision a violet colored lotus right above your head and imagine it opening and expanding in all directions.
You can also imagine a ball of violet light spinning in a clockwise direction. At the same time, picture a bright, golden-white light coming through the opening funnel and filling up your entire body.
This simple visualization method is very effective because when you think about your crown chakra and visualize it opening, it will begin to open.
4. Crown Chakra Affirmations
Crown chakra affirmations can be useful when working with your Sahasrara as they can help you to connect with your Higher Self and completely clear all of your ego identifications.
