Healing Your Sacral Chakra
Next, our Sacral Chakra 🧡
Ready?
*let's start with a collective deep breath together*
The sacral chakra is the second chakra. Its element is water, and it is connected primarily with emotional responses and regulation and is often referred to as the seat of emotions. It's associated with creativity, movement, flow, care, pleasure, sexuality, relationships, and procreation. It represents the balance of masculine and feminine energies. It is about creating joy, happiness, and loving relationships. The energy of the sacral chakra stores desires, feelings, and emotions -- especially emotions we suppress.
This chakra is also connected with the womb. In terms of emotional suppression, think about your womb as an emotional "junk drawer," where everything that is not expressed, healed, or released, is stored.
Opening this chakra assists in cleansing your womb. You have to let go of any trauma in your womb space, as divine babies, divine ideas, and divine visions will be nurtured and manifested there.
Do you feel out of balance creatively? Sexually? Emotionally? Do you feel you deserve pleasure? Are you comfortable in your body? The sacral chakra says, "I FEEL"
What are some signs that your sacral chakra is blocked?
Lack of creativity, repetitive dysfunctional relationships like having the same unpleasant experiences over and over again with your relationships, lack of motivation, lack of sexual appetite or unpleasant sexual intercourse, emotional confusion, feeling unimportant, feeling as if nobody loves you, believing you are unaccepted by those around you or by society, and also believing you do not know how to take care of yourself, or actually neglecting to care for yourself.
Having an overactive sacral chakra may look like being a workaholic, being dominant in relationships, being greedy, obsessed with pleasure to fill a void, and being addicted to any activity used as a substitute for love.
How to heal your sacral chakra --
Begin by taking care of yourself in a way that feels good to you. What do you like to do? What would you like to do more of? Give yourself grace, and begin to take your days day-by-day. Get an appropriate amount of rest, eat healthier foods, and relax in a way that feels good to you. Heal or give up on toxic relationships, no longer support connections that are no longer aligned with your growth. Balance your masculine and feminine energies. Tap into your divine feminine, sis. Yoni or vaginal steams. Intentional waist beads. Vajacials (skincare for your yoni). Move your body. Dance. Move your hips. A hula-hoop is an awesome tool to open your sacral chakra :)
