Yoga Assignment: Chakra Analysis, Reflection, and Implications

This assignment presents an analysis of the student's chakra activity based on two different tests. The student identifies the active and underactive chakras, such as the Root, Sacral, Heart, and Crown chakras, and relates them to their personality traits, communication skills, and social interactions. The student reflects on the implications of these chakra imbalances, particularly in social and professional settings, highlighting difficulties in expressing emotions and communicating effectively. The assignment also compares the results of the two tests and acknowledges the differences. Finally, the student expresses a commitment to improving their self-awareness and opening the closed chakras to foster better communication and social interactions. This assignment helps understand how the student's inner self is reflected in their behavior.

I was always interested about knowing my inner self. How a person behaves is largely
related to the energy of that person. The characteristics and behavior of a person is largely
dependent upon the chakras of their body. These are focal points in a human’s that makes the
person what they are. In order to evaluate the chakras that are open in me I took two tests.
The test showed that among the seven chakras my Root chakra, Sacral chakra, Heart chakra
and Crown chakra are under active while the Naval chakra, Throat Chakra and Third eye
chakra is open. The implication of the result is that as a person, I have enough self-esteem; I
am able to express myself, my thoughts and ideas and have good intuition. I have a habit of
fantasizing as well. The underactive chakras indicate that my communication and social skills
are under developed. In social situations, I am likely to become nervous and uneasy which
makes other people feel that I am unapproachable. I am also stiff and curt in social exchange
and communication as I am likely to display a poker face due to my inability to show my
emotions to people. The result also implies that I may appear cold and distant, unengaged and
rigid in thinking to people who are communicating with me.
The second test that I took shows results that have many similarities to the first one.
The throat, solar plexus and crown chakra is active while Third eye. Heart, Sacral and Root
chakra has fair activity. The result implies that my ability of self-consciousness and universal
consciousness is high, my communication is developed and my self-respect and energy
aspect is also active. My survival ability denoted by root chakra and intuition denoted by
sacral chakra are in a fair position. This though similar has some difference with the first test
results as in there, my crown chakra was underactive while it shows that they are quite active.
Similarly, the first test showed that my third eye is developed while this test shows evidence
that its activity is quite low, if not absent.
I agree with this result as I have also felt that I have been able to communicate myself
in art more rather than with people. As an artist, most of my thoughts and inner self is
represented in my art while in social situations I find it difficult to express myself properly. It
has so happened that due to my inability to communicate my thoughts, emotions and
expressions, I have been misjudged and misunderstood by people. I once had attended a
family occasion where many of my relatives were present. My parents wanted to introduce
me to some of them. I felt awkward when they did so and came off as rather distant and cold.
Later on, reflecting back at the incident, I felt I could have been a little more approachable. In
my work life as well, this has created a barrier for me. In many cases I have been unable to

approach my colleagues and supervisors. Despite everything, now that I have become aware
of the inabilities in me, I intend to improve and open the closed chakras.
