The lower chakras must be cleared, in order for all of them to work.
Chakras aren’t physical organs that become blocked in the way that your arteries can become blocked and cause a heart attack. It’s not anything like that. Think of it more like eating too much cheese and stopped up. Your chakras can get congested and cause energy to flow less efficiently throughout your body.
The main cause of blocked chakras for most people are anxiety and stress, but physical problems can affect them as well.
Here’s what the lower chakras are about:
❤️ First Chakra:
Earth, Physical identity, oriented to self-preservation
Located at the base of the spine, this chakra forms our foundation. It represents the element earth and is related to our survival instincts. It connects to our sense of grounding, to our bodies and the physical plane. When unblocked, this chakra brings us health, prosperity, security and dynamic presence.
❤️ Second Chakra:
Water, Emotional identity, oriented to self-gratification
This chakra is located in the abdomen, lower back and sexual organs. It is related to the element water, to emotions and sexuality. It connects us to others through feeling, desire, sensation and movement. When flowing freely, this chakra brings us fluidity, grace, depth of feeling, sexual fulfillment and the ability to accept change.
❤️ Third Chakra:
Fire, Ego identity, oriented to self-definition
This is the power chakra, located in the solar plexus. It rules our personal power, will, autonomy, as well as our metabolism. When healthy, this chakra brings us energy, effectiveness, spontaneity and non-dominating power.
When depleted or stuck, this is what happens in the lower three chakras:
1st Chakra: Being drained of first chakra energy feels like a survival crisis. You can’t get grounded because you are stuck in your head. But also, if you have too much energy at the root, you can become compulsive in behaviors. These are just misguided attempts to get grounded.
2nd Chakra: When someone is stuck in the sacral chakra, they wrestle with being ruled by their emotions or the opposite of this, which is feeling detached, numb or disconnected. There’s also a connection to sexual drive (or the lack of it) at this level.
3rd Chakra: This chakra is considered the power center and when out of balance, self-esteem may be low and wise decision-making can be difficult. Emotional outbursts are also common when energy isn’t flowing well here.
Somebody who has clear and healthy chakras will normally feel a sense of satisfaction and well-being. But how do we get there?
First, meditation is one of the best ways to open your chakras. With awareness and concentrated focus, you can correct the issues which block your chakras. Crystals and essential oils can also help rebalance them. But truly, doing the right inner work is the most efficient way to get to clearing them.
Affirmations are another way to affect your chakras in a positive way. Words have power and the way you use words have power. Saying positive affirmations out loud can immediately shift energy, allowing it to flow more freely.
There are other things you can do, such as immersing yourself in water, visit the ocean, get out in nature. Being in nature heals you organically.
