The crown chakra, located at the top of the head, is the chakra most associated with thought. According to Yoga Journal, this particular chakra controls your connection to spirit, universal consciousness, wisdom, and self-knowledge. Essentially, the crown chakra is responsible for your own particular brand of spirituality and enlightenment. An underactive or blocked crown chakra can be marked by a listless feeling that leads many to feel disconnected from the universe and their greater purpose in the world. Additionally, greed, a desire for more material items, and arrogance can be the direct result of an overactive crown chakra, per Well + Good.
Opening or regulating your crown chakra is most successfully accomplished by learning how to trust the universe and your greater purpose. As Conscious Items explained, this can be achieved by spending time in silence, meditating, engaging in your form of spiritual practice, and setting daily and weekly intentions that will help you rebuild that trust in your larger purpose. While meditating, Conscious Items suggested chanting the OM mantra and placing clear quartz, charoite, or Herkimer diamond crystal on your forehead. Then, according to Well + Good, adding a headstand, tree pose, or savasana to your yoga routine could also help open your crown chakra.
