We absorb energy from Earth and our surroundings and transmute energy through the body. Our feet draw up Earth energy to the root chakra, helping you stay grounded. The first chakra is practical and understanding and where you feel empowered and strong. When balanced, it gives vitality and warmth.
First Chakra Practice
Take your awareness to the base chakra and apply the intention, “I Am Grounded.” What blockages do you sense? The base chakra will feel tight. Identify the block (s) and see what needs to resolve. Imagine the color red and weave it into the root chakra.
