My main goal in 2018 is to continue my journey of self-love, self-care, and self-healing. Thank goodness for technology and all of the lovely Spirits that make it easy for me to research and find tools that work for me on my path. I want to keep up the momentum for the New Year and work on my energetic levels from the bottom up. I mentioned in a previous post that I have this awesome meditation video that I listen to weekly. The video focuses on each chakra at some point during the overall session but I wanted to give some 1:1 attention to each of these energy centers.
Let's learn and adventure together as we get in alignment!
What are chakras?
"The Sanskrit word Chakra literally translates to wheel or disk. In yoga, meditation, and Ayurveda, this term refers to wheels of energy throughout the body. There are seven main chakras, which align the spine, starting from the base of the spine through to the crown of the head. To visualize a chakra in the body, imagine a swirling wheel of energy where matter and consciousness meet. This invisible energy, called Prana, is vital life force, which keeps us vibrant, healthy, and alive." - source
Where is the root chakra located?
"First Chakra: The Muladhara is the chakra of stability, security, and our basic needs. It encompasses the first three vertebrae, the bladder, and the colon." - source
When should we work to heal this Chakra?
"For a person who has imbalance in the first chakra, it might be hard to feel safe in the world and everything looks like a potential risk. The desire for security dominates and can translate into concerns over the job situation, physical safety, shelter, health. A blocked root chakra may turn into behaviors ruled mainly by fear.
On the same line, when the root chakra is overactive, fear might turn into greed and paranoia, which are extreme forms of manifestation of imbalance in the first chakra. Issues with control over food intake and diet are related to it." - source
