Has someone treated you unfairly? If so, you probably understand that this can leave you with feelings of resentment and frustration. These negative emotions can take a tool on you mentally and physically if left unresolved. It can be difficult to forgive someone when you feel that they don’t deserve to be forgiven, however, it is for your own good. Letting go of this negative energy can restore your physical energy balance, preserve your health, and help you avoid the harmful physical effects of resentment.

It is not worth it to hang on to resentment, because you will only be causing your heart to strain. You are probably not hurting the person you are upset with by holding a grudge against them, so just let it go.

Balancing Your Heart Chakra to Remove Resentment

When someone treats you poorly it injures your emotional well being. Rather than allow your heart to remain bitter and angry, release this energy. It is important to talk about your issues with a trusted loved one, but you should also take the time to restore your chakra balance. Even if you are not thinking about the hurt all of the time, it can remain there until you release the negativity. That is why it is important to take the time to restore your heart chakra (the fourth chakra point).

There are different ways that you can rejuvenate the balance of your heart chakra. This chakra point, located at the center of your chest, just above the breast bone, is representative of your love, and devotion. Through basic meditation and breathing exercises, you can connect with this green chakra point, remove the negative energy that resentment has created and allow positive energy to flow once again.

One very simple way to enhance the circulation of energy through your heart chakra is to experience and appreciate beauty in a deeper way. Relaxing your mind and allowing yourself to enjoy something aesthetically pleasing, such as art or nature, can have a truly healing effect. As you observe something beautiful, breathe slowly and deeply. Take breaths in through your nose and out through your mouth. Visualize the green energy at your heart chakra point circulating freely and imagine the resentment leaving you.
