So, wherever this might come from - be it the full-on energy of spring, the steadily rising levels of energy that come with the ascension of Gaia, today's full moon in Scorpio or just random curiosity (or all of the above) - I decided to try sungazing!
Being a Yoga Teacher I have heard of it several times, but have never brought myself around to actually try it. As it seems, now seems to be as good a time as ever for trying it out ... and I will keep a (hopefully consistent) diary of my experiences - for myself and anyone who wants to try sungazing and is interested in what it did to me.
Sungazing is said to have several benefits: from betterment of one's eyesight and boosting of the immune system to pure superpowers (who doesn't want to have superpowers!!!), there are many positive effects of looking right at the sun at sunrise or sunset:
improvement of overall health by energizing the body
sharper eyesight, clearer vision
decrease of appetite
higher levels of serotonin and melatonin
more vitality & energy, less fatigue
purity and enlargement of the pineal gland
higher levels of awareness & consciousness
more psychic powers (clairvoyance, intuition, ...)
feeling of inner balance & harmony
There are, of course, a few things one has to keep in mind when looking directly at the sun:
only sungaze within the first hour of sunrise and the last hour of sunset (due to UV rays that could damage your eyes)
if possible, do it barefoot on the ground connecting to mother earth (to balance out the yang energies of father sun)
remove glasses or contact lenses and do not gaze through your closed window
start with 10 seconds on the first day, then add 10 seconds each day - the max. time being 44 minutes
The preps have been made: an app to inform and alarm me of each day's sunrise is installed and set, the perfect location was chosen (being my bedroom window for now, cause I just can't be bothered to go somewhere to look at the sun for 10 seconds; I do have the intention to go outside tho when I am able to sungaze for a few minutes or more) and I am fully motivated (so far) and can't wait for tomorrow's sunrise!
Let the sunstaring begin!
(Superpowers, here I come!⚡️)
