About the Root Chakra
The root chakra, Muladhara in Sanskrit, relates to our physical well-being, and sense of safety, and security. It’s often compared to the foundation of a house or the roots of a tree that provides stability.
When the root chakra is balanced we feel safe, secure, and grounded; concentration comes easily; we’re in good physical health. When it’s unbalanced we feel anxious and fearful. Major transitions in life, affect this chakra. Such as changes in our jobs or job loss, relocating our home, divorce, loss, starting something new and anything that may “uproot” us whether it’s a positive or negative change. When feeling insecure, we may have a tendency to compulsively collect things, stress eat, or have money issues.
