Unblocking the Root Chakra (Muladhara)

Unblocking the Root Chakra (Muladhara) is all about restoring your sense of safety, grounding, and stability. This chakra is located at the base of your spine and is associated with survival instincts, physical identity, and your connection to the Earth.

🔴 Signs of a Blocked Root Chakra:

• Feeling anxious, fearful, or insecure

• Financial worries or instability

• Disconnection from your body or nature

• Trouble focusing or feeling “all over the place”

• Physical symptoms like lower back pain, leg issues, or fatigue

1. Ground Yourself in Nature

• Walk barefoot on grass or soil (earthing)

• Spend time in natural settings like forests, beaches, or gardens

2. Practice Rooting Yoga Poses

• Try poses like Mountain (Tadasana), Warrior I & II, and Child’s Pose
