Essential Oils for the Solar Plexus Chakra

Essential Oils for the Solar Plexus Chakra

The Solar Plexus Chakra is the third chakra and it is located in the abdomen, centered between the sternum and navel.  This chakra is also known as Manipura, a Sanskrit word that means “lustrous gem”.  The Solar Plexus Chakra is the center of our inner power and the place where our self-confidence manifests.  It controls how we regulate our physical and mental energy and keeps us in a balanced, productive state.  This chakra controls how we value ourselves and how we choose to spend our time, in our hobbies, careers, and relationships.  

When the Solar Plexus Chakra is in balance, we experience a sense of inner peace that allows us to be comfortable in our own skin and fully trust our intuition.  This strengthened trust and empowerment give us a boost of patience and motivation to reach all of our goals.   A balanced Solar Plexus Chakra calms our demeanor while helping to wash away unnecessary worries and emotional blocks.  We are able to be flexible and patient with others and trust ourselves to be good leaders and friends.  

A blocked Solar Plexus Chakra can leave us stressed and overwhelmed by negative emotions.  This blockage can cause an extreme shift in our self-image.  We can be left feeling self-conscious and desperate for approval or arrogant and believing the world should revolve around us.  An imbalance in the Solar Plexus Chakra can lead directly to an imbalance in our emotions and we may have difficulty understanding and controlling our feelings during this time.  

Essential oils are great tools for supporting our physical, mental, and spiritual health and can help to improve the balance of all of our chakras.  Here are a few essential oils that can help to unblock the Solar Plexus Chakra.


Rosemary Essential Oil works to reduce the anxiety and stress that can occur when our Solar Plexus Chakra is out of balance.  It helps to uplift our mood and increase mental activity so that we are thinking clearly and trusting our inner insight.


Black Pepper Essential Oil helps to soothe the nerves and energize the mind when a blocked Solar Plexus Chakra has us feeling emotionally overwhelmed and stuck.  It can work to balance our emotions and increase mental energy.


Spearmint Essential Oil can help combat anxious feelings and put our thoughts back in focus when our Solar Plexus Chakra is out of balance.  It works to reduce nervousness and self-doubt while also boosting concentration and increasing energy.


Ginger Essential Oil works to bring our minds back to the positives in life when our Solar Plexus Chakra is blocked and we are stuck in a negative rut.  It helps to alleviate stress and enhance concentration while also helping avoid fatigue.  


Cedarwood Essential Oil can help to relieve stress and clear our minds when a blocked Solar Plexus Chakra clouds our thoughts.  It works to increase cognition while also relaxing the body which helps to enhance focus and reduce tension.
