Therapy: Sacral Chakra

Sacral Chakra: I feel.

 The Sacral Chakra holds your creativity, sexual energy, relationship experience, productivity, and passion.

The Sanskrit word for the Sacral Chakra is: SWADISTHAANA.

The Sacral Chakra is located almost two inches below the naval. 

The colour of this chakra is sunset orange. Some people like to imagine it as a glowing and swirling orb of orange energy while others prefer to imagine a six petalled orange lotus.

When the Sacral Chakra is imbalanced, a person can experience a lack of creativity, a lack of passion. They may feel insecure or jealous and could also feel sexually repressed.

When the Sacral Chakra is balanced, a person can enjoy a flow of creativity, they honour their sexuality and take pleasure in the things they do.

Meditation is the key to balancing the Sacral Chakra.

A person can chant the mantra, 'VAM' while meditating and this will help to balance this chakra.

Yoga poses that help to balance this chakra are Goddess pose, Mountain pose, Garland pose, Upward Dog pose and Savasana.

Affirmations:

I am a creative soul.

I easily find creative solutions for all the challenges.

I honour and accept my sexuality.

I feel excited and passionate about the things I do.

Foods:

The energy in your Sacral Chakra replenishes itself with all the orange foods: Oranges, papaya, carrots, pumpkin, orange bell peppers, golden corn, sweet potatoes, salmon, and red lentils.

Crystals for the Sacral Chakra:

Crystals that help awaken, activate, and balance this chakra are carnelian, coral, citrine, orange calcite, tangerine quartz, pink banded agate, yellow fluorite, and sunstone

It is important to note that all the seven chakras must be aligned and balanced, we cannot single out one chakra to bring harmony to one area of our lives. All the chakras are deeply connected and 'retuning' just one will not be of any benefit.
