“When we develop the heart chakra, we begin to influence the surroundings with our spiritual presence. When we develop the communication chakra, we begin to influence the country with our spiritual presence. And when we develop the seventh chakra, we begin to influence the world with our spiritual presence without doing anything.” ~ Swami Dhyan Giten
What is the Root Chakra?
The Root Chakra, or 'Muldahara' in Sanskrit, is one of the seven aligning energy centres that place down the spine - The Root Chakra is at the base. These seven energy centres dictate different aspects of our lives, personalities, actions, and feelings. Developing in our early years, the Root Chakra is responsible for grounding us and providing us with a solid foundation for life.
When our Root Chakra is off balance it greatly impacts our sense of stability, resilience, and earthly connection. When functioning correctly, the Root Chakra gives us the inner strength to overcome life's greatest challenges and the instinct to be in nature. It truly is the Chakra for embracing our inner wildness.
What are Root Chakra Affirmations?
Affirmations are positive sentences/phrases that are repeated aloud, written down, or thought. Affirmations reinforce the inspiring message, allowing you to truly believe and feel what is being said. Repeated over and over, affirmations eliminate negative thought patterns and replace them with positive ones.
Root Chakra affirmations are mantras that align the Root Chakra, with an emphasis on grounding, connection with the earth, and emotional and mental security.
When the Root Chakra is strong, it gives us a sense of balance, peace, and security, so it is incredibly important that we keep it functioning at all times. Additionally, the Root Chakra, being the first to form, impacts the health of the other six Chakras, which is why it is often referred to as the 'base Chakra' or the 'foundation Chakra'.
