TRANSCRIPT

Hello, and welcome to your three-minute morning.

Today, we're looking at the root chakra, the first chakra.

The root chakra is at the base of the spine, and it's associated with the color red.

It's a funnel-like energy that allows energy to move from front to back and back to front in a horizontal manner.

There are seven major chakras in our bodies.

The root chakra, the first chakra, is all about survival and the collective.

So physical health, career, money, family, how you fit in with people in society,

all of those types of issues are connected with the first chakra.

When the root chakra is healthy and flowing freely, you tend to feel like being with groups of people is easy.

They accept you.

You have work that you like and that pays you well.

Your home is comfortable and your physical health is vibrant.

Your family life is stable.

And in general, you feel like you belong in the society and culture that you're in.

When this chakra is blocked, there are a lot of things that can manifest physically, as this is the lowest chakra and connected most directly to our physical surroundings.

So when there is damage and blockage in the root chakra, accidents happen, illnesses are contracted, you may have more problems with people at work, friends, family members, you may feel shunned, you may feel like whatever you start, you just can't seem to finish for a whole variety of reasons.

These are very general things that can go wrong when the root chakra is blocked or damaged.

It can be a challenge.

So to overcome that challenge, it's important to recognize when the energy is blocked in that area, and to keep it moving, and also to know when you may need help healing this part of your energetic body.

This is such an important chakra.

It's the one that grounds us to Mother Earth.

We pull in her energy, and we also let energy flow back into her through this chakra, down through the legs, and out through the soles of our feet.

To help clear this energy, visualize the color red in the area of your tailbone, and then watch it build and swirl into a horizontal funnel of energy, not unlike a tornado, except both ends are open and evenly sized.

Now watch the energy come down the front of your body, flow through that vertical funnel, and continue down, down through your legs to Mother Earth.

Notice how this visualization makes you feel.

How does the energy feel in that area?

Take note.

It's very much like a self-diagnosis of your energy.

You can always ask the higher power for guidance and answers on how to keep your root chakra clear and healthy and flowing freely.

Let it be so, and have a wonderful day.
