Ways to Increase Charisma/Aura?

Hello all,

I'm interested in learning more about energy practices or any practices that can increase charisma. Any and all suggestions are welcome.

Here is my humble understanding.

When developed, the energy body radiates from the navel center. The radiation goes out into space in all directions just like a star, and when this happens, the human being becomes charismatic.

We refer to celebrities as stars---they are radiant energy stars, charismatic, and we are attracted to them.

Their aura is bright, it's a type of light, being lit from within, being able to radiate this energy, and it can even be in the eyes, a glint, gleam, or eyes that smile. For example, Dana Carvey always seems to have this charismatic glint in his eyes.

I've read that meditation and qigong can increase charisma, so I'm wondering if anyone here knows of specific practices that will help increase charisma or yield a bright aura.

I'm near Chicago in case anyone knows of good teachers/classes in the area.

I'd also be interested in books on the subject if anyone has any recommendations.

Thanks!

The naval center is but one energy center. We have many. Attraction I believe, is the result of the practice of cultivating ones energy becoming it's source as opposed to the majority, who steal/pull energy from the outside. If you have built a reservoir of your own energy, interaction with others will result in their sense that you have something they want. Thus, attraction.

Cultivating energy in the various chakras...

The root chakra: taking care of survival needs and building physical wealth
Second chakra: Feeling attractive, desireable
Third chakra: Having control over yourself
Fourth chakra: Being able to forgive
Fifth Chakra: Asserting yourself in a group setting
Sixth chakra: Harnessing focus, meditation
Seventh chakra: Having a plan for your life, through hard work having the circumstances of your life adhere to your plan
