Open your Heart chakra
Heart chakra
Chakra

are seven major of these energy connections in the subtle body through which
the life force (prana) or vital energy moves. Chakras attract healthy energy
for us to absorb, and throws off negative energy that we no longer need. The
healthier the chakra is, the more energy we attract.
