Root Chakra Balancing Continued

Hi friend!

I got some great feedback on the last chakra email so I thought I'd pop in with a little information on the root chakra before I carry on to the sacral chakra.

On a personal note, I am doing a Karuna reiki master training this month and I am feeling more connected to the chakras than ever! Karuna reiki is related to compassion and it has 8 new symbols with very specific healing domains. It's been so transformative! If you're interested in distance reiki sessions, hit reply so we can connect!

Root Chakra Affirmations

I am.

I am connected.

I am strong.

I am grounded.

I am secure.

I am worthy.

I am safe.

I am present.

For the root chakra, of course, wear red! Like the beautiful tundra top from Savvi.

It's made of super soft, smooth, barely-there material and has a beautiful V in front and in back.

Root Chakra Grounding Exercise

In tadasana (mountain pose), try rocking forward and backwards. Let your arms swing and your body tilt. Push yourself to your edge. It's ok if you go too far and step out; really rock around. Test your balance find the spots where new muscles kick in to hold you up and the spot where you can feel yourself passing over your center. Once you've had a bit of fun with it, see if you can slow it down and hone in on your personal center. Find the spot where you're not leaning backwards or forwards at all. Straighten into your self and your true center. It may be right where you thought it was, but it's always good to re-tune yourself.

Then try the same thing rocking side to side, testing your balance and your edge. Go to the point that you almost have to lift your foot off of the ground to stabilize. Test it, lean, push it! This is meant to be fun! Then slowly reduce the intensity and find your way towards home: your true center.

Double check- do some baby rocks forward and back, side to side. This is your place on the Earth, your center, your home. You're meant to be right here, perfectly comfortable in yourself.

See you next time for the Sacral Chakra!
