The New Year is a time of Resolution – to set your intention to clear out the old and bring in the new. It’s a time for looking at your life and seeing where you could use a little more balance and how you can achieve it. It’s also a great time to do a little life review and see where you need to change – to detox the old ways and limiting beliefs and energies in your life – to cleanse and clear. It’s also a time to see where you’ve been blocked and where you can grow, to set new goals so you can strive to do and be more. Of course, you need not wait to the New Year to do this. You can do this anytime, and our Release It™ and Chakra Line of Essences are fabulous tools for doing just that!
Why use Release It™?
Often, we have deep seated energy blockages that wreak havoc in our systems. These blockages can be thought of in many different terms, but usually represent a sort of trauma that has either been inflicted or inherited. Trauma can be anything from stubbing your toe to being yelled at in school, experiencing ongoing stress, suffering a serious accident, etc. Energetically speaking, these stored traumas appear like dark dense bodies of accumulation in the emotional and subtle bodies, literally weighing you down.
How it Works
Release It™ gets into this dark energy accumulation that comprises energy blocks or imbalance in each of your main chakras (or 7 main energy centers) and begins pulling these energies out, helping you to break down the resistance so you can more manageably release it. It has several different mechanisms by which it works, including releasing through relaxing, breaking up energy blockages into small particles, drawing out or purging the toxic parts in the physical body, encouraging a state of surrender, unearthing it, etc.
The Importance of Clearing Your Lower Chakras on Overall Health & Spiritual Well-Being
[vc_column width=”1/2″]Your physical body is ultimately a vessel for your spirit; it is a means for your soul to express and progress. When you do not clean out your physical vessel, you not only weigh it down, but you can also hold yourself back from experiencing greater light, and ultimately, enlightenment.
When your Prana or life source energy (aka mana, or “chi”) becomes stagnant due to resistance in your physical body, your soul and your spirit – your overall “inner experience” – also become weighed down. This sort of blockage or “clog” can then affect your pure potentiality, diminish your vitality and limit how high or far you can go in life. Being grounded in the sense of being “weighed down” is different than being grounded and rooted, connected to the earth. Your physical body should be grounded, but your spirit needs to be able to soar. When you do not clear out your chakras, however, especially your lower ones, your physical body can have the effect of grounding your spirit. You can become depressed and heavy, out of touch with your higher life purpose.
An overactive or underactive chakra can lead to any number of issues depending on the chakra, and if not perfectly balanced, can ultimately lead to illness. Moreover, blockages in the lower chakras can impact all chakras above them, most decidedly your Root Chakra. Therefore, it is important to clear out the lower chakras and establish proper foundation for the upper chakras to perform properly.
The Shanti Kai™ Chakra Line
The Shanti Kai™ Chakra Line draws from over 600 plant and mineral ingredients; with each Chakra Essence synergized in a carefully crafted blend formulated to help clear, heal, and balance that particular chakra. It is also a great tool for healing practitioners to incorporate in their client work and to use for their own self-care to stay balanced and aligned.
Working with our Chakra Line to Balance, Clear, and Release
Our Chakra sprays are also formulated to release and clear the 7 main chakras, and it is NOT always necessary to combine them with Release It™. In fact, unless there is a specific block you are aware of or you are doing deeper levels of clearing and self-care, you may find simply working with the Chakra Essence(s) you need is enough. However, when you’re really ready to go deep and create the change you want to see in your life – such as a once-a-year New Year’s Cleanse – you just might find this combination a fabulous tool to do just that – to accelerate your healing and elevate your pure potential.
Release It™ and Your Chakras
Below are some simple steps for clearing and releasing working with Shanti Kai™ Release It™ and Chakra Essence Line. Use these essences whenever negative thoughts or feelings come up with the intention of releasing it and letting it go. If the feelings can be linked to a specific body part (e.g. butterflies in my stomach, “broken” heart, weak knees, headache, etc.) then spray Release It™ over the affected areas and follow with the appropriate chakra essence. Otherwise, it may be helpful to spray the base of the skull, forehead, temples, heart center, and feet.

Therefore, it’s important to clear out the lower chakras and establish proper foundation in order for the upper chakras to perform properly.

There’s a special lunar event happening today, a rare black supermoon! Every 2.5 years there are two new moons that occur in the same calendar month, called a black moon, and this one also happens to be a supermoon, meaning it is at the closest point to the Earth in its orbit. Tonight, and the nights following this new moon are also the perfect time for stargazing, as the stars are more visible than usual – and with the new moon energy, it’s also a perfect time for setting new intentions, forging new beginnings… and a perfect time to to go within, get in touch with your deepest truths and desires and make a wish.

On Tuesday July 16th, we’ll have the final eclipse of the summer, a full moon partial lunar eclipse in the sign of Capricorn. The days surrounding a lunar eclipse are ideal for taking a break to turn within and process the emotions and deeper parts of our psyche that can be brought to the surface at this time. We recommend using our Shanti Kai™ Summer Eclipse Companion Essences, Ajna™: Third Eye Chakra Essence and Sahasrara™: Crown Chakra Essence to help you tune in and delve into your inner world, and to help encourage upliftment and strengthen your spiritual connection as you process what comes to the surface.
Eclipses are a wonderful opportunity to make deep, positive changes in our lives, as the energy tends to show us things that are no longer serving us that we need to release. At the same time, it is common to experience some emotional heaviness or overwhelm around this time as parts of ourselves that we may not normally look at come up to the surface. Luckily, these essences are just what you need to stay in a positive space so that you can use what comes up at this time in ways that uplift you and move you forward.
Ajna™: Third Eye Chakra is part of the the Shanti Kai™ Chakra Line and is designed to balance and open this important chakra, which can lead to increased insight and wisdom, heightened intuition, and a stronger connection to higher spiritual guidance. This blend may be especially helpful for doing deep inner work or introspection. Many of our actions in life can be guided by subconscious beliefs that we may not be aware of, but working with this chakra can help us to see them for what they really are. When we recognize what is going on below the surface, it gives us a chance to heal and make conscious choices that help move us forward. If you don’t have this Essence, some good substitutes are Intuition™, Indigo Light™ and Sapphire Master™ Blend.
Sahasrara™: Crown Chakra is designed to lift you up into the energy of the seventh chakra, where you can more easily experience feelings of having a higher purpose, worthiness and spiritual connection. It’s not uncommon to sense a feeling of heaviness around the time of an eclipse when so much is coming to the surface, and connecting with the crown chakra can help us to stay in a higher space where we can experience positivity and a feeling of spiritual support as we navigate our inner world. Some good substitutes to use for this Essence are Amethyst Light™, Diamond Master™, Golden Aura™ and Violet White™.
Energy around eclipses can cause us to feel a little more stirred up and on edge than usual, and with the blood moon lunar eclipse occurring on Monday (or Sunday if you’re in Hawaii) it’s a great time to spend time becoming still and turning within so that you can stay calm and centered with our Lunar Eclipse Companion Essences Intuition™ and Ajna™ Third Eye Chakra.
This super blood moon lunar eclipse will be visible from North America. According to Ayurveda, if you are in an area where an eclipse can be seen, its effects are stronger and it’s beneficial to spend extra time in prayer, meditation, or just taking some time to experience stillness.
Ajna™: Third Eye Chakra Essence is designed to help balance and strengthen the third eye chakra, which may promote your ability to focus, calm mental chatter, and help you experience inner stillness. Not only that, it may promote greater wisdom and help increase your understanding and acceptance of others, which may be especially helpful when dealing with the heightened emotional energy of an eclipse.
Intuition™ Essence is formulated to help you harmonize with lunar energy – energy that can bring up emotions stored deep within you, especially during an eclipse. If you are more externally oriented during this time, it may be easier to misunderstand your own feelings, which may be churning up old wounds and emotions, resulting in misunderstandings and discord in your surroundings.
Working with these Essences may enhance your ability to tune in to your inner emotions and gain greater understanding into your true self, during a time which might otherwise tend to throw you off balance.
Remember, Essences work on the subtle planes and affect the physical body as a downstream effect, and best results are seen with dedicated use over a period of time. You can also incorporate them into any ritual you may have during this Eclipse.
