🔼The Sacral Chakra 🔼
"The dwelling place of one's self" - it is the center of our feelings, intimacy and creative expression.
When Balanced: "The Empress" is expressed through healthy emotions and pleasure. There is abundance and joy. Healthy boundaries, relationships, bodies and libido. Creativity flows and is easily expressed. Letting go and adapting to change. Rolling with the punches. FLOW!
When Unbalanced: "The Martyr" is critical, sour, and condemning. It is physically compulsive, addictive, obsessive, over indugent or neglectful. Emotionally unstable or numb. Manipulative, over reactive, moody or cold, rigid. Fear of intimacy and suppressed feelings. Fear of change. Lack of creativity. CONTROL!
🧍♀️Physically the sacral chakra is associated with the lower abdomen, pelvis and hips, ovaries/testes and our appetites. Imbalances can manifest through chronic lower back pain, reproductive issues(endometriosis, prostate..etc), kidney/urinary issues, over indulgence.
Ways to balance your Sacral Chakra:
🔸️Creative outlets: Art (painting, photography, pottery), musical instruments, write, interior design, cooking, innovation.
🔸️Activities: Water! Swimming, hydro spas, meditating or hiking near water, dancing and yoga.
🔸️Emotions: Understand, process and manage unresolved emotional wounds/patterns through journaling, counseling/spiritual advisor, meditation, shamanism.
🔸️Reproduction: address your attitude towards intimacy, pleasure and relationships.
🔸️Other: Postitive connections. Letting go of the past. Healthy, sensual delights (clean food, massage, self care), fluidity/adaptability..give up control. Healthy relationships that foster belonging. Positive emotional connections with others.
👃Essential oils: Jasmine, Cardamom, Sweet Orange, Sandalwood and Ylang Ylang
🪨Crystals: Onyx, Tiger's Eye, Orange Calcite and Carnelian
Many of us, my self included, struggle with this chakra the most.
It's important to remember that if it is not replenished/balanced it will drain all other chakras to fill itself, eventually draining the energy resources of the body...and the body is a vessel for spirit.✨️
