heart chakra

Chest energy point

The heart chakra is the fourth of seven energy centers in Hindu and Buddhist tantric traditions, located at the center of the chest.

Associated with love, compassion, and emotional balance, it supposedly governs one's capacity for connection and forgiveness.

In yoga and New Age practice, a blocked heart chakra is said to cause emotional withdrawal or relationship difficulties: She focused on opening her heart chakra during meditation.
