Lead me from Guilt to Creativity!!

  • Become aware of the body's sensations

  • Acceptance - no like or dislike for the sensations

  • Allow and Release


Guilt is an emotion that arises when we feel responsible for doing something wrong or violating a moral or ethical code. It often involves feelings of remorse, regret, and self-blame.

Guilt can manifest in different ways, such as a nagging feeling in the pit of the stomach, a sense of shame or embarrassment, or a feeling of heaviness or burden. It can be a useful emotion in that it can help us recognize when we have done something wrong and motivate us to make amends or change our behavior. However, excessive or chronic feelings of guilt can be detrimental to one's mental health and well-being, leading to self-doubt, low self-esteem, and even depression. It's important to address feelings of guilt healthily, such as through self-reflection, forgiveness, and seeking support from loved ones or a mental health professional. Energetically, the guilt can be stored in first three chakras as these are the primary survival chakras, and balancing these chakras can help release the guilt from the energy body. The guilt around sensuality can be released by balancing Sacral chakra.

Guilt and Yogic Science

In yogic science, guilt is seen as a negative emotion that can create a blockage in a person's energy flow and hinder spiritual growth. Yogic philosophy emphasizes the concept of "karma," which is the idea that our actions have consequences that affect our present and future lives. When a person feels guilty about something they have done, it can create a negative karmic imprint that can affect their future experiences.

Yogic science offers various techniques and practices that can help address feelings of guilt and promote emotional and spiritual healing. For example, practicing self-awareness and mindfulness can help a person become more attuned to their thoughts and emotions and identify the underlying causes of guilt. Yogic practices such as asanas (physical postures), pranayama (breathing exercises), and meditation can help release negative emotions and promote inner peace and self-forgiveness. The practice of karma yoga, which involves selfless service and doing good deeds without attachment to the results, can also help alleviate feelings of guilt by promoting a sense of purpose and fulfillment.

Guilt can create a sense of shame and block energy flow in the sacral chakra. Excessive guilt can create negative emotions resulting in an imbalance in the sacral chakra and impacting a person’s ability to experience pleasure and emotional intimacy.
