Root 001 - Introduction

- MULADHARA -

The Root chakra is located at the base of the spine. Traditionally Red, some see the shades as bright cheery, and some more maroon.

Muladhara governs survival, security, and your walk in the world. This chakra is all about support. From the base of your spine, it supports your physical body and relates to how supported you feel in this world materially.

When in balance, Muladhara resonates security, stillness, and stability. It helps you feel safe in the world and sure that your needs will be met, especially your basic physical needs for shelter, food, water, sleep, clothing, and material comfort. Because of our urge to be stable and secure in this world, we seek strength in the root chakra.

Gravity is this chakra’s most influential force. In essence, it holds your feet to the ground gently and effortlessly. being “grounded” is a term you may have heard that refers to your root chakra. Being grounded means that you are rooted and present in your body and on the planet.

The body and presence are critical to health and happiness. Ideally, the body feels grounded and present. This feeling stems from the security of the root chakra. Strength and balance in the root chakra pave the way for a life that is stable and secure.
