The root chakra governs all beginnings in the physical world, including money, health, family, and survival issues. When you have a healthy root chakra, you are grounded in the goodness of mortality. This earth element chakra is the root or foundation of all the other chakras and is physically situated at the base of your spine, legs, and feet. It is considered the “sleeping place” of Kundalini Shakti, the awakening life force we call “Mother Nature.” Your root chakra holds all your potential in the raw.
Things move pretty slowly at the root in the vibrational range of the red color spectrum. Issues arising from your root chakra signal you to let go of your fears and embrace greater patience in your life’s foundational circumstances.
Checking your root chakra → Are you often afraid of life’s risks, over-committed, physically tired, financially lacking, or not manifesting the life you dream of?
If you answered “Yes” to any of these, your root chakra tells you it’s time to return to basics.
