I AM GROUNDED

Root chakra is our base of support. If this energy centre is weak, we often do not have the strength to weather life’s conditions. Or, at least, not as gracefully as we’d like.

From the book, Householder Yogini: “TOO MUCH EARTH AND EVERYTHING FEELS HEAVY. You become lethargic and slow. As if the weight of the world is on your shoulders. Your thoughts are heavy and your body is sluggish. Forward movement seems impossible. Think: stuck in the mud. The antidote for too much earth is to add water (Sacral chakra chapter will help you). Not enough earth has its issues as well. If we are not sufficiently grounded, it can be difficult to bring our creative inspirations and visions into form. We may have many ideas and passions but none will materialize in a way that can be of use to ourselves or others. Envision a mountaintop with scree (loose rocks), you can’t get your footing. The bills don’t get paid, the laundry doesn’t get done, the plants are parched. Antidote: more earth.”
