Clearing the Root Chakra
Original Song by Marisa Skolky "Get Grounded"
In this video, I've set the intention to clear my base energy center through singing an empowering song , grounding, and wearing the color red.
At the core of this chakra is our basic instinct to survive. When the base chakra is deficient in energy, our strategy for survival is to dissociate from our physical body and live predominantly in a fantasy world. The aim here is to increase the flow of energy through the base chakra so that survival instincts are strengthened. We can do this through putting our bare feet on the Earth, regulating our nervous systems through singing, and reminding our subconscious mind that we are safe and protected. Bringing this energy center back into harmony will strengthen our ability to deal with reality and be more present in life.
Another feature of our being deficient in the base chakra energy is we may find ourselves notably underweight with chronic disorganization and with a severe lack of boundaries. Healing the base chakra will help to increase awareness of our physical bodies and needs - previously unrecognized exhaustion levels, sensations of hunger and dulled senses can begin to awaken through regular connection with this energy center.
Excessive amounts of energy in the base chakra can create a different set of challenges. Security and safety can become over emphasized, preventing us from moving forward in life, and instead of being able to ‘push through’ we become more stuck. This excessive energy can manifest as rigidity in ideas and attitudes, and as material greed. It can also manifest in too much body weight or extreme feelings of tiredness.
NOT SURE WHERE TO START? TRY AFFIRMATIONS!
Affirmations can be a powerful tool for clearing and balancing the root chakra. Here are some affirmations specifically tailored for clearing the root chakra:
"I am grounded and rooted in the present moment."
"I am safe and secure in my body and in the world around me."
"I trust in the abundance of the universe to provide for my needs."
"I release fear and embrace courage and resilience."
"I am connected to the earth, finding strength in its stability."
"I am worthy of love, respect, and belonging."
"I honor my body as a sacred vessel, treating it with kindness and respect."
"I release any past traumas or fears that no longer serve me."
"I am at peace with my past and excited for my future."
"I am worthy of all the blessings that come my way."
Repeat these affirmations regularly, either silently or aloud, to reinforce a sense of security, stability, and groundedness in your life. You can also customize them to better resonate with your own experiences and intentions.
