Heart Chakra

Anahata

Anāhata is the fourth primary chakra described in Hindu yogic, Shakta, and Buddhist tantric traditions. It is traditionally associated with the heart region and is linked to concepts of balance, emotional regulation, compassion, and relational awareness in classical yoga and tantra literature.

Heart

The heart is a muscular organ found in humans and other animals. This organ pumps blood through the blood vessels. The heart and blood vessels together make up the circulatory system. The pumped blood carries oxygen and nutrients to the tissue, while carrying metabolic waste such as carbon dioxide to the lungs. In humans, the heart is approximately the size of a closed fist and is located between the lungs, in the middle compartment of the chest, called the mediastinum.

A chakra is a meditation-aid in the form of a psychic or psychospiritual energy-center in the subtle body, as visualized in a variety of Hindu and Buddhist tantric yoga and meditation practices.
