Chakras

Muladhara  

Lam

Base of spine, includes legs as roots

Since the root chakra corresponds to the element earth, it represents everything solid, the practical aspects of our lives, basic survival and physical needs. This includes your basic needs such as food, water, shelter, and safety, as well as your more emotional needs such as trust and letting go of fear.  Its purpose is to ground us and give us stability, a foundation for growth in other areas.

The Second Chakra is also known as the creativity and sexuality chakra. A balanced second chakra leads to feelings of emotional balance, sexual wellness, abundance, pleasure, and joy. When this chakra is out of balance, a person may experience a fear of change, emotional instability, sexual dysfunction, depression, or addictions.

The third chakra is our source of personal power for transformation and directs our self-esteem and self-confidence. Our belief in ourselves.

If the chakra is too open there may be a desire to be in too much control, to dominate and seek power or prestige, a more ego-driven objective. Third chakra excess can make a person narcissistic or self-centered.

Authentic self-expression and communication. Are you speaking your truth or saying what you think the other person wants to hear?  Fear of rejection or judgment from the others may inhibit our expression.

By working on the lower chakras and gaining a sense of personal power and knowing what’s in your heart helps one speak from the heart with genuine confidence. Effectively communicating your needs, desires, and opinions to be true to yourself and others. 

Inner knowing, intuition, wisdom, sixth sense. Ability to trust in our internal feelings and spiritual guidance.

Our source of enlightenment and spiritual connection to all that is. Connection to our spirituality, higher selves, to every other being on the planet, and the divine energy that creates everything in the universe.  Transcendence, being connected with higher planes of pure consciousness.
