So chakras are the body's energy centers where earth energy rises up and celestial energy comes down and within and this is these vortices are where these energies converge.
So human beings are in fact conduits of energy.
So in balancing earthly energy with cosmic energy we can feel balanced and whole and vital in our lives.
So when the energy of any certain chakra becomes sluggish or stagnant we can experience an array of physical,
Emotional,
Mental discomforts.
They house emotions and each chakra governs one of the primary glands of the endocrine system,
The system that is responsible for regulating our hormones.
So today we are checking in with the second chakra,
The sacral chakra.
It's located in the pelvis about two inches below the belly button and about two inches forward from the spine.
And this chakra correlates with the ovaries in women and with testes in men.
And this chakra is responsible for our feelings of pleasure and sensuality and deserving.
So if you are experiencing some lack mentality,
Not enough-ness,
Not enough feelings of abundance or evidence of abundance,
Not enough pleasure,
Not enough intimacy,
Connection in relationships,
This is an issue of the second chakra and bringing your attention to this space can help clear up some of those blockages.
So if you would please just sit or lie comfortably with your spine straight,
As straight as possible.
Just hold straight and strong.
And if you like with your back and your neck and your head supported,
So perhaps you're sitting up against a wall or you're just lying completely flat.
And either way you can just close your eyes,
Settle into the body.
And you can take your two hands and if you're a woman,
If you have ovaries,
You can place them over ovaries or spot where they were if that's the case or if you're a man,
You can place them low over the testes.
Kind of warm up that space in the body with your hands,
Making small circular motions,
Connecting with this part of yourself,
This sacred intimate part of yourself.
And now take a deep breath in through your nose.
Exhale let go,
Let air out your mouth.
Three breaths like that in through your nose.
When you're ready,
Exhale,
Let air out through your mouth.
Twice more,
Inhale through your nose.
Exhale through your mouth and as you exhale,
You just let go.
Take a deep breath in through your nose.
Fill up your lungs and when you're ready,
Let go.
Let go of your breath and let go of what you do not any longer need.
With each exhalation,
You're just letting go of what no longer serves you.
And with each inhalation,
You can take in more of what you do need.
So if that's positivity,
Love,
Feelings of gratitude,
Feelings of abundance,
Breathe that in.
You can exhale stressors,
Negative thoughts,
Negative feelings about yourself because those are all just stories anyway.
You can let go of old stories that you have or you may have about your own worthiness,
Your own deserving,
Your own right to live a very fulfilled life that is a divine right.
You're all born with that.
We can be led astray from that fact but we can always also come home to it.
Just breathing regularly,
Settling in this space.
So the color of the sacral chakra is orange.
You can start to visualize a very vibrant like starburst orange and focusing with your mind's eye on that spot within your pelvis in between your reproductive glands.
There's a spinning wheel,
Spinning clockwise,
A spinning wheel of vibrant orange and see it glowing and see it growing.
If your wheel seems small or dim to you,
See if you can make it brighter,
See if you can make it bigger,
See if you can spin it faster.
And as you're doing this,
Visualize a drop of glittery gold paint is added to this spinning wheel and becomes mixed in just by the spinning motion of your chakra,
Brightening it,
Cleansing it,
Making it regal,
Making it shine.
Okay.
Just breathing,
Seeing that wheel spin and see in your mind's eye,
Your lower spine coming right through that place and see your spine is strong,
Capable and being able to hold the weight of your body and metaphorically being able to hold the weight of your burdens or things that challenge you in life.
See your spine in your mind's eye as representative of being fully capable and sturdy of providing you with this stability.
And as this part of your spine intersects this chakra,
It is becoming infused with this vibrant energy and instilling you with a deep knowingness reminding you that you deserve to live a very sensual,
Pleasurable life.
And you might start to wonder where in life are you blocking yourself from these things?
Where in life are you stopping yourself from connecting with others or deeply connecting with others?
Where in your life are you not acknowledging that there already is abundance?
And the reason maybe you're not seeing more of it is because you've somehow shut yourself off to what already is.
How can you open your eyes more to the abundance that you already experience in whatever form that may be,
Whether or not it's monetary.
Where do you see abundance?
And now breathe into this space.
See if you can fill up your lower abdomen with spaciousness.
And if you notice any sticky or stuck blockages,
See if you can move them with air.
Breathe into that.
Breathe into those places.
This is also the seat of deep emotion and emotions that are stored in the body and blocked in the body and do not become expressed,
Become in actuality excess weight.
And if you are someone who's experiencing some weight issues or even feelings of heaviness,
Sluggishness,
You might be curious to look and see what emotions are asking to be expressed through you.
What is asking to be released through the body?
You may even be experiencing some of that now and I would encourage you to allow that to happen.
Allow energy and emotion to move up and out of you so that you no longer have to carry it.
And as you do this,
You can affirm to yourself that you do love this life.
That this life is sacred and that you're in the life that you're in for deeply powerful and mysterious,
Maybe unforeseen reasons but this is your life and you get to honor it and you get to co-create it every moment of every day.
So affirm to yourself that you honor this body that you are in as a spirit in a body.
That you love to treat yourself respectfully,
This body that you call home.
That you are interested and excited about exploring its potentialities for excitement and pleasure and fun.
That it's safe for you to trust your feelings and to give them room for expression and maybe that expression comes out in emotional ways and maybe that expression comes out in creative ways.
The chakra,
The sacral chakra is also the home of creativity.
I personally believe that each of us has creative gifts.
What are yours and how do you find joy in creating?
And how might you step into some of that today?
And just take a deep breath and take this reminder into the rest of your day that there is really nothing to change about the way that you are.
That you get to deeply love and respect yourself exactly as you are.
And when you do this,
Loving yourself in the present,
Healing naturally happens.
And habits that you have that you no longer want will start to fall away and seem so less interesting the more you just love yourself in this present moment.
Take a deep breath in and exhale.
And on your next inhalation see this warm glowing orange light growing and glowing and enveloping the rest of your body.
And it's raising out more and it's enveloping the home,
The space,
The environment that you live in.
And on your next inhalation see it growing and developing and glowing even more as it goes out and covers the country that you live in.
And on your next inhalation see this glowing bright orange vibrant light enveloping this whole planet earth.
And even further and further out into the cosmos and to infinity and beyond.
And know and accept and realize and really embrace that you are interconnected with all that is.
And when you can zoom out a little bit and look at life this way,
It makes our little daily problems or our big daily problems seem more manageable,
Seem not so intense.
In the grand scheme of life we are not alone,
We are interconnected,
We deeply belong and we are deeply deserving of all the goodness that life has to offer.
When you are ready you can just wiggle your fingers and toes,
Become more aware of the sounds and the environment around you.
And on your next inhalation flutter your eyes open ready for an exciting fun,
Perhaps a sensual and creative day ahead.
