Thanks for sharing what came up when you explored it. Your thoughts about how your right people (in a sense, that's what they are) aren't turned off by your wound and your subsequent question regarding the reciprocity you feel you cannot give to others in pain were very interesting; there is great food for thought in there. Your post reminds me of the problem I had with my solar plexus and ribcage last year (posted about it <a href="http://kimianak.posterous.com/exposing-some-flesh" rel="nofollow">here</a>), which in turn reminds me that I had been wanting to explore that thing (and my inner stuff generally) further. I haven't done it in a really long time, for many reasons, good and bad, and it's time that I get back to it. No later than yesterday, I was telling my gentleman friend that I couldn't even hear myself think - I meant, not the superficial chatting that goes on in my head, but more the "what do I think/feel/want/need deep down inside" kind of thing. Your post provides me with one more source of inspiration to get back to taking time for this.

Ouch! This is the chakra I have been working with this week. The way I see it, this is the seat of your personal self-power. (But I am no expert.) Books on chakras I particularly like include Eastern Mind, Western Body by Anodea Judith and Wheels of Life, also by Anodea Judith. You also might check out Bridget Pilloud's Web site at um, Ok, hold on, let me grab one that's specifically about chakras. OK here: http://www.bridgetpilloud.com/blog/2010/01/the-energetic-body/ Things I am thinking about, in relation to chakras: how connected they are. How because of my excessive tendencies in my root chakra, I get a little stuck there, and then have a hard time...um, how to say?...moving the energy up? And at the same time, I am okay with the energy coming downward, but it seems to get stuck around my heart. So, yes, weak in the sacral (second) and solar plexus. Too woo-woo? Things I am also thinking about: why do I try to read so many freaking books at the same time? I'm reading at least four on my kindle, and there are...looks...six stacked next to me on the desk here. ...student of life, I guess. Oh Lucy, I’m so sorry for this wound you have. Ouch!
