There are 7 chakras, well technically there are more
but there are 7 main ones that people tend to focus on. Now I know you all must
be thinking now what are all these other chakras? Don’t worry about it; I will
touch upon all that in another blog. Today I would like to focus on 1 chakra,
and every month I am going to focus on different ones.
The root chakra is very important because it’s what
keeps us grounded. It deals with physical
identity, survival, stability, instinctual nature, ambition, and
self-sufficiency, when this chakra isn’t balanced a lot of issues can arise.
Governs:
bones, teeth, nails, anus, prostate, adrenals, kidneys, lower digestive
functions, excretory functions, and sexual activity
Physical Dysfunctions: tiredness, poor sleep, lower back pain, sciatica, waste
elimination problems like constipation, depression, immune related disorders,
obesity and eating disorders
Psychological and Emotional Issues: ungrounded, afraid, rage and anger,
self esteem, survival, security, obsessed with comfort, alienated, possessive
Balanced Chakra: feeling grounded, centered, committed and independent, having energy
and vitality, strength and stillness, able to digest foods well
I recently got married and was super excited
to get on with this chapter in my life, everything was wonderful and dandy till
I got back from my honeymoon. I went back to my crazy work schedule, as I do a
lot for work, my husband and I had recently purchased a house and I was back to
living with my parents, well we both were. All this wasn’t the problem; it was
not till I moved into my own home where I started to lose focus and balance, my
root chakra was walking on glass. This all happened because I was raised to be
and I am so close with my family so when it came to being on my own I didn’t
know how.
I can stay here
forever and explain how I cried and suffered about being away from my family
but I am sure you all get the idea. My root chakra for the first time ever, or
so I feel was the first time ever had no balance and for the first time I felt
I wasn’t that strong women I usually am. This is an example of something that
in reality isn’t such a big deal that can really throw off your balance. It’s
very important to keep the chakra balanced, you always want to stay grounded.
