Why do you feel fear in your gut? Because your Enteric Nervous System (ENS)—often called your 'second brain'—lives there. Today, we ignite the Solar Plexus Chakra (Manipura), the energy center of personal power. By focusing our attention and visualization on this core area, we calm the physical seat of anxiety (the 'butterflies in the stomach'), transforming that worried energy into decisive action and unstoppable willpower.
WELCOME TO THIS WEEK'S SERIES: Becoming Fearless: Breaking the Habit of Hesitation
Welcome to this week's new series! It's time to stop just managing fear and start actively building unstoppable confidence that lasts. This week, we're providing you with a complete, actionable toolkit—from ancient breathwork and hand mudras to modern neuroscience techniques—to fundamentally rewire your mind for courage. Join us for this transformative journey, and discover the powerful, decisive person you are meant to be.
This is day 5 of a 7-day meditation series, "Becoming Fearless: Breaking the Habit of Hesitation," episodes 3388-3394.
YOUR WEEKLY CHALLENGE
Go on a 1% Courage Quest:
Identify and execute one small act of courage every single day. This isn't about skydiving; it's about pushing the edge of your comfort zone by just 1%. This could be: asking a difficult question, turning off your phone for an hour, starting a difficult conversation, or submitting an idea you've been holding back.

| 0:00.0 | Welcome to episode 3,3192 of the Daily Meditation Podcast. I'm delighted to offer you today's |
| 0:14.0 | daily insight about the week's theme, the journey you're on this week, and a guided meditation with the |
| 0:24.6 | days featured meditation technique. So you this week are on a journey to become fearless. |
| 0:34.6 | And this has you breaking the habit of hesitation that may hold you back whenever you feel stuck. |
| 0:45.8 | And in today's episode, you are going to tune into igniting your inner power. And you'll do this by focusing on your |
| 1:02.7 | personal power. Now, with yoga and meditation, these 5,year-old practices or rituals, the ancient yogis believed that just as we have |
| 1:21.2 | bones and tissue and ligaments and muscles to hold our organs in place, our vital life centers, |
| 1:32.6 | there must be something that resides within us that harbors our emotions and our memories. |
| 1:43.8 | And it has to do with your mind-body connection. So when you think |
| 1:50.3 | about love, the emotion of love, gratitude, compassion, you likely think about your heart |
| 1:59.6 | at your chest. |
| 2:01.6 | You likely feel your heart. |
| 2:04.6 | Or if you're sad, you feel heartache. |

| 2:14.6 | And where you do this, according to the ancient yogis, and you may notice this |
| 2:21.7 | about yourself, your abdominal area, your solar plexus or Manipura chakra, this is the region of your body that is considered to harbor emotions such as fear. |
| 2:42.0 | Also, it harbors your emotions such as passion and excitement. |
| 2:48.0 | So with a chakra, there is a positive aspect and a negative aspect. The negative |
| 2:57.2 | aspect doesn't mean that it's bad because we all experience the full range of human emotions |
| 3:05.6 | in different ways, at different times, different circumstances, |
| 3:10.9 | because we are each unique. |
| 3:14.6 | But we all experience similar emotions. |
