The root chakra is one of your seven chakras which are the energy centers in your body. The root is one that is thought of as part of the earth and grounding. When your root chakra is balanced, it can help you to feel secure and to feel that you are safe in the world around you.

Root Chakra

The root chakra is one that goes from the base of the spine all the way to the top of your head. This is a wheel of energy that has Qi energy that will go throughout your body. If the chakras are blocked, this can cause your body, mind, and soul to suffer. The root, also called the Muladhara, is where the energy begins flowing. If you feel anxious, sad, depressed, or worried, this can mean your chakra is blocked.

You can get your chakra opened up and you will feel better. Use crystals and positive affirmations to keep your root and your other chakras strong.
