While more research is needed about how the third eye can affect us spiritually and emotionally, a 2016 study suggests that smaller pineal gland volume may be linked to mood disorders like schizophrenia.
Some people have hypothesized a link between the chakras and mental health, but this isn’t accepted by mainstream science.
The role of the third eye has also been discussed in parapsychology or the study of unexplainable mental phenomena. Some believe that, when open, the third eye acts as a doorway for spiritual communication.
This is supposed to include the following:
- telepathy
- clairvoyance
- lucid dreaming
- astral projection
- aura perception Session 4 will come soon
