The Pineal in Ancient TraditionsĪlthough modern science and medicine have just begun to understand the critical role of the pineal gland, ancient cultures and traditions already have this knowledge.įor Buddhists, the pineal is a symbol of spiritual awakening. The pineal may be a gateway to higher creativity. Lucid dreaming, astral projection, and an enhanced imagination are topics related to pineal gland activation. Pineal gland activation brings a more significant connection to the natural world and a willingness to let go of ego pursuits that shut out our soul. These qualities are also essential for our spiritual and psychological development.
We experience more:Īdmittedly, these are qualities anyone can associate with our higher potential. Hindus believe that a blocked ajna chakra leads to:īut when the third eye is open, we perceive reality differently. In the Hindu tradition, the third eye is called the ajna chakra. It’s that simple.Įven more disconcerting, when the pineal isn’t functioning correctly, we often don’t even know there’s a problem. When the pineal isn’t functioning properly, we can’t access our potential. This blog is about actualizing our higher potential. Why invest so much time discussing a tiny gland the size of a grain of rice? Why is Pineal Gland Activation Important?

Today’s guide is the final segment in a 4-part series on the pineal gland. Thankfully, we have the power to change that. The pineal gland-and many other vital glands and organs-aren’t functioning within their intended design. One reason is that our brains rarely function the way they’re designed to run. We know the difference between when we’re operating from our higher potential and when we’re not.īut why do we often fail to operate from our innate power in the first place? (If you’re reading this, that likely includes you.) That is, a part of us knows, but consciously, we don’t connect with this reality.įor some of us, however, this realization becomes more conscious as we age. Be careful not to strain your eyes.Most people sense that they aren’t living from their highest potential.įor most, this “knowing” is subconscious. The eye muscles are delicate and easy to tire. After a few minutes, the alpha producing quality of this exercise diminishes as habituation occurs. So, don’t hold your eyes continuously up. It is the movement of the eyes that causes the production of alpha waves. She suggests that some people may feel more natural doing just the opposite: looking up on the exhale and down on the inhale.
Alpha brainwaves allow for vivid, lucid imagery and can assist in creativity and insight.Įye rolling has long been used as a meditation technique because it more quickly leads to an altered state of consciousness and the theta brain waves desired in deep meditation.įor some creative inspiration, a brief break in your day or during meditation, you can kick start your brain’s alpha waves by doing this simple but profound exercise which Anna Wise details in her book Awakening the Mind: A Guide to Harnessing the Power of Your Brainwaves: An alpha state is the intermediate ground between waking and sleeping and provides a bridge to the subconscious mind. If you close your eyes and roll them upward, you will make even more alpha waves.Īlpha waves are present in the relaxed awareness of a daydreaming mind. Producing alpha waves is physiologically linked to the eyes. Rolling the eyes upward is an automatic response the body makes when trying to access lost or hidden information because doing so causes the production of alpha waves in the brain and your brain doesn’t have the images of the perceptual moment competing with the images of the mind. Ever wonder why you do this? There’s a real, physically based reason. When you are trying to remember something, you instinctively might roll your eyes up toward the sky.
