The atypical psychosis I experienced

The atypical psychosis I experienced.
I had been experiencing atypical psychosis for two months. What I mean is that there were no visual or auditory hallucinations or delusions. There were only paranoias that did not reach the level of delusion—paranoias about someone casting spells on me and harming me.
I’ve been feeling okay for the past two weeks, but I don’t know if I’ve fully recovered. In this situation, I wonder if there is any downside to doing chakra meditations. I regularly do aura cleansing, protection practices, and hatha yoga and root chakra yoga. After doing root chakra meditation, I honestly felt more rational. Still, I’m curious whether there could be any harm in it.

This process can cause some new activity, leading to anxiety (etc); however, that's why it's important to clean and incorporate grounding practices, like yoga.

So, to answer your question from my own experience, empowering the chakras only exacerbates psychotic symptoms when done improperly, or if you are predisposed or diagnosed with severe mental disorders (but, in which case, you can compensate with a practical earthy approach to your routine.
