3 Benefits of a Strong Root
Recently, I have been delving into the lessons of the Chakras and their energies again. In doing so, I was able to connect deeply in a spiritual way and was led to a much healthier frame of mind and energy. Let's just say before then, I was not in a good place.
Due to the origins of the chakras (which are ancient, dating back to the Vedic texts from 1500-500 BCE), they really do hold such great lessons for everyone.
I realized that these were not created out of someone's imagination, but were created because they tap into universal TRUTHS.
And if you know me and my work, TRUTH holds such value, as I believe it is the catalyst for true healing and growth. So, I thought it would be a great benefit for my healing and yours to go through a different Chakra each week for 7 weeks.
This week we focus on the ROOT chakra, which is located at the base of the spine, and the energy moves through our feet upwards to this area. The following are 3 major benefits of healing this chakra, AND some ways to heal/empower it.
1: Higher Energy
Because the root chakra connects to the EARTH's energy and our source of life, by healing it, we then gain access or easy FLOW of this energy. This results in a higher energy overall.
This is why exercise (nothing extreme though) is a great way to activate and heal this chakra. Have you ever noticed that you may be feeling lazy but as soon as you start walking, doing yoga (or whatever your exercise of choice is), all of sudden you get a surge of energy?
If it doesn't feel like this, and you want to lie down right away instead, a BLOCK of this chakra may be at fault, and therefore deeper work is to be done.
For help with this, simply reply to this email and we can set up a FREE CONSULT.

2: Gain Trust in the Life Process
Sometimes life can seem crazy and unpredictable and you might feel like you are losing your footing, or you are not sure which direction to go, or feel downright hopeless.
Well, healing the root chakra can ignite your spark for life and your TRUST in life again. You will feel deeply connected to the Earth and feel confident in which way to walk on this path of life.
One process that I feel especially helps this is literally rooting yourself in the Earth, through sand, dirt, mud, rocks etc. On a walk or hike, you can stop, take your shoes off, and place your feet directly on a rock (feel the coolness or warmth, depending on the sunlight) and KNOW this is where you are supposed to be. Your life is no accident.
3: Feel Taken Care Of
Following the acts mentioned above, a feeling of being CARED for can also be ignited.
The Earth supports our life through food, herbs/medicine, water, minerals, fresh air, etc. There is no wonder why it is called the MOTHER Earth, as it nurtures and nourishes our body AND mind and spirit.
Know that we are a by-product of the Earth, that we are designed by and adapted to its elements. This circles back to the trust factor, and by having this comfort and knowing the Earth has our back, we can move through life a little more secure; feeling fully supported.

In addition to the practices mentioned above and the affirmations, here is a list of things you can do to heal and empower your root chakra; foot massage, spend time outside, bath legs in cold water in the am (guide water up then down), garden, wear red/surround self with the colour, rhythmic music, and enjoy the sunset.** the best time to do these is on the full moon**
If you need extra support and/or feel resistant to these practices, the course is a great opportunity to remedy this. There are one-on-one and group sessions included in the course, PLUS extra techniques that fast-track the effect.
