Root Chakra ✨ A guide to the 1st energy center

Christine J. Gold explains the root chakra, located at the base of the spine and linked to safety and survival. An underactive root chakra causes fatigue and fear of change; an overactive one brings aggression and impulsivity. Balance it with grounding practices like nature walks, root vegetables, crystals like garnet and red jasper, and the mantra "I am safe, I am grounded, I belong."

If you're new, welcome. If you're a loyal fan and follower, thank you so much for taking the time. To join me today. Now, I, you know, I wanted to talk about the root chakra. Actually, I want to talk about all of the chakras. So this is going to be like a little mini series. Maybe you're new on the path, or maybe you've been on the path for a while and, you know, you're being called back to look at your energy. Because I host a podcast and live show, and I've, you know, it's called The Power of Healing Your Energy. So my dark night of the soul, you you know, has happened to me multiple times, but the last one was in 2018. And I almost feel like, you know, we're in between worlds in a sense of, you know, the illusion and who we are at a soul level, right? Um, really centered in oneness and who we are, making our way back home through unconditional love, forgiveness, and healing. And that's it. It is very simple, and but it really starts with your energy and knowing who you are, knowing where maybe your gaps and energy are. I am also Reiki master, um, and you know, for me, I wanted to master my energy because being an empath and being very sensitive, I, I had no boundaries. Simple as that. I had no boundaries. Um, I would live through my emotions. Now, I'm not saying to, you know, disconnect from all of that. I'm saying to really know thyself, and to know thyself is to know thy body. I mean, yeah, it's a meat suit. It's, you know, it's more— where we're living is a 3D world. I get that, right? We are the universe. We're everything. You still have to deal with, you know, what happens when, dare I say it, not everyone is living in that same world where we're trying to raise our vibrations as high as possible and living in Christ consciousness. So, um, the root chakra, especially with everything that's going on right now, it's all about I have. It is all about our adrenals as well. So Knowing that you are stable, safe, and secure, you have unshakable trust. It sustains me, and I'm rooted in life and in myself. And that truly starts with, um, getting back into nature, connecting with Mother Earth, with Gaia, um, the animals, because we have become so disconnected from all of that, right? And it is about the earth, and it is about what we smell. So I'm just going to be, uh, you know, bringing a little chart in here, just a presentation slide. I should maybe get rid of this. Here we go. And I'm doing this all through StreamYard. They're amazing. I started with them 2 years ago on my, you know, my journey of teaching and sharing. And they've been with me every step of the way. So, and I am the director, the writer, the creator, the producer, just like you are, like Dolores Cannon talks about. If you don't follow her, you know, go follow her teachings. She has so much wisdom. But here we go. So I'm going to take this other clicker, ticker off. So yes, it's located at the base of your spine. It is about the earth. It is about smell. And this is the chakra that is closest to the earth. I mean, there is an earth chakra below us. Actually, there are 55 chakras, but you know what, we're gonna focus on the 7 for now and see, you know, what the feedback is, and then we will continue on. So, um, yes, it's about grounding, grounding, getting ourselves grounded, getting away from the online world, the outside world, the fear-based world, and getting back to who we are. At a soul level. So because fear is felt in the chakra, right, and it controls your sense of survival, your fight-or-flight responses. So if you're— that's out of balance and you're all over the place, you know, you can manifest diseases. Um, and physically it influences suprarrenal glands as well as the legs, the feet, kidneys, bladder, and spine. So when this chakra is weak, you may feel very tired, overly cautious, afraid of change. Needing someone to light a fire under your ass, per se, or maybe feeling cold from poor circulation, having circulatory issues. And fear is also held in the knees as well, right? And you might get pain in the hip area at that, you know, not moving forward in, in the things that you do, not feeling supported maybe in the lower back as well. So when it's over-energized, you may become aggressive, over, you know, sexed in a way. Sexuality might be overheightened, reckless, very impulsive, maybe a little belligerent. The adrenals are all about I have. And adrenals, if I'm sure you've heard adrenal exhaustion, it does make you susceptible to disease and viruses, right? So we have to be very conscious of that. So here's some things, you know, your blocked root chakra: emotional upset, loss, accidents, fear, anxiety, stress. It's a malfunctioning, so it causes a disruption in the flow. You want everything to flow like water. That's, you know, becoming aware through meditation, visualization. You know, there's lots of ways to get there. And it disrupts the harmony in the field. And like I talked about, your emotional, mental, and physical, spiritual, financial relationships, all of it at a 360-degree level get disrupted because the field is disrupted. So what are some ways to balance and to keep it strong and healthy? Grounding, grounding music. Getting out in nature, dancing, essential oils, ylang-ylang and cinnamon, you know, those earthy blends, whatever you happen to work with. Get on your yoga mat, get on your yoga mat, or Pilates, or find some type of exercise that gets the emotions off to get you back grounded. Gardening, whatever it is, singing, chanting, mantras. Affirmations. There's so many ways. And grounding foods— broccoli, beets, turnip, root vegetables are huge. And I will throw in meat as well. And if you're not, you know, if you don't eat meat, that's fine. If you do, that's fine. It doesn't matter. You need to figure out your way. There is no right, there is no wrong. We got to stop causing separation. All right, so carrying crystals— garnet, ruby, bloodstone, red jasper, agate. Um, shungite as well, black tourmaline, you know, your quartzes. Um, clear quartz is amazing. It's a, it's a do-all crystal. It clears everything for you. It's amazing. Meditate envisioning a red swirling circle. Taking showers, having those Epsom salt baths, getting, you know, like letting that water take everything off of you to clear that channel. Chanting ooh or lam, ooh or lam, ooh or lam. And here's some mantras: I am safe, I am grounded, I belong. Seeing beautiful images and pictures. So yes, I'm going to take that down. Let me know, you know, um, how you're feeling and you know, if this makes sense to you. I also have a, you know, a PDF, sorry, of all the chakras. So if you'd like a copy of that, the, the link is below. Click on that and we'll get you a copy. And the more that you work with that energy, the better. Um, and we need to get our adrenals, uh, together. And knowing that you have a new I Am— you— I Am simplest way to connect. I am, boom, divine connection to Source just blows everything out. So yes, that is what I have come to know. I know that from my ancestry, ancestors, you know, the upbringing from my parents. I was told that money doesn't grow on trees, and, um, you know, there was some affiliation with people who were wealthy were bad, right? So I've learned to clear that. So maybe you need to look into that as well. Maybe there's something subconsciously that is blocking you from, you know, from money. And just because you're spiritual doesn't mean you cannot be abundant and rich in every facet of life. Um, you know, whoever told you otherwise is wrong. It's false. That is not who you are. We are made in the image of God, and we have all the abundance of God. We are one, right? But you've got to retrain the monkey mind, and to know thyself through all of your chakras. So thank you so much. I'm keeping this short and simple and sweet. And just know that who you are at a soul level is, you know, you're meant for something. You are a creator. You have purpose. And because you have life, you have purpose. All right, I am your Soul Purpose Mentor. Thank you so much for being here. I'm sending you lots of love. Take care.
