Standard Tai Chi Meditation Heart Chakra
Begin this exercise by getting comfortable. Choose an area with less pollution and noise and without distractions. Sit down comfortably with the back straight. It doesn’t matter if you assume the lotus or half lotus, by the time you master this technique, you can even do this inside a train or a bus. The eyes are slightly closed, but not completely to allow a slightly downward gaze to a spot about a pace in front. The mind should be clear from any thoughts at this step. The purpose of the fixed gaze is for the eyes to focus onto something but not distracted by it. Breathing should be done in regular, unhurried pace, with breath held in for some time before exhaling.

The next step is the trick of opening the heart chakra gate. Now, focus your attention (without looking) on the center of your chest. Imagine a surge of power from the center of your chest to your head and shoulders especially at the back of your head and on the spine. Maintain your half-closed eyes. Try imagining a tickle of water running from your scalp to your back. If you feel a slight tingling, you have successfully opened the gate to your ‘heart chakra’. Now, do you feel refreshed?

This is the most basic Tai Chi meditation heart chakra control. This meditation has a degree of healing capabilities in it. If you have a headache, a minute spent in meditation with heart chakra could effectively ease if not relieve you of the pain.
