Although called the heart chakra, the Anahata isn't located in the heart of a person. It is located at the centre of the chest, right beside the heart. It is the central chakra of the chakra system creating a bridge between the root, sacral and solar plexus with the throat, third-eye, and crown. With practice one can feel the depth of their feelings in their chest. Listening to the voices of the surroundings, acknowledging the feeling that comes with it, and living through varied emotions - all comes from the heart chakra!
