1st chakra healing is about balancing your first, or root, chakra. It's the natural place to begin your chakra study.
The Root chakra, located at the base of your spine, grounds you in the physical world and connects you with Earth energies.
It forms your foundation in life. You can associate it with survival, security, physical identity and self-preservation.
A balanced root chakra results in health, prosperity, security and dynamic presence,
giving you a strong will to live. When this chakra is balanced you radiate power and vitality, energizing all those around you.
How do you know if it isn't? Blockages or weaknesses in this chakra can make it feel like you go from crisis to crisis. You may feel unable to trustful yourself, others, or life in general.
You may have a suspicious nature, or be overly dependent on others. A blocked or poorly developed root chakra can also make you indecisive or easily overwhelmed.
The solution is to literally come back to your roots. 1st chakra healing occurs when you reconnect to the earth through activities such as gardening.
Spending quality time in nature will deepen your connection to the earth and reinforce the knowledge that you are an important part of nature and 'all that is'.
Healing your relationships with family and friends will help restore your root chakra and improve your life.
To keep your Root Chakra strong and balanced, imagine you're breathing in a vibrant red color while meditating, and visualize roots growing deep into the earth. You might like to wear red underwear or imagine yourself wearing red shoes.
This chakra is supported by eating root vegetables such as carrots and beets. You can stimulate it by performing grounding yoga poses, such as Tree Pose or sitting in Lotus position.
Tip: Whenever you're feeling scattered, take a few deep breaths, imagining you're breathing up through your feet on the inhalation, and back down into the earth on the exhalation.
