Storytelling by chakra

To reach the broadest audience, you need to move the process out of the head and into the heart with sincerity and emotion, into the gut with humor and intuition, and (ideally) into the lower organs with sex appeal.

The way to communicate most effectively is to use the lower three organs to arouse interest, and then the brain to deliver meaningful content.

A chakra is a vortex of energy. There are seven main chakra points on the human body which start at the base of the spine and finish at the crown.

You can build a story chakra by chakra. Work your way through the body of your story.

Muladhara (the base chakra representing earth and physical body, survival, past impressions).

Svadhisthana (the sacral chakra representing water and physical vitality, sex desire, earthly emotions).

Manipura (the solar plexus chakra representing fire and individual will, personal power, perseverance, emotions).

Anahata (the heart chakra representing air and Love, surrender, balance, acceptance, devotion).

Vishuddha (the throat chakra representing ether and Communication, expression, higher will).

Ajna (the brow chakra representing mind and seeing, inner vision, intuition, comprehension).

Sahasrara (the crown chakra representing intelligence and God consciousness, spiritual intelligence).

Start from the base and wind your way to the crown and beyond. Keep an eye on the colors.

From red to orange to yellow to green to blue to indigo to violet.
