CREATIVE - Sacral Chakra

Our Sacral Chakra is the seat of our emotions. It is the second chakra out of the seven and can be found right below the belly button in the lower area of your stomach. It is represented by the color orange. It is also referred to as the sacrum (where this chakra gets its name) and is considered to correspond with our reproductive organs both male and female that produce the various sex hormones involved in the reproductive cycle along with bodily functions having to do with liquid such as circulation, urinary elimination, assimilating and processing food, and sexuality. When developed the sacral chakra also stands for any form of creative or producing action we may preform in our daily lives.

This chakra, identified as the instinct zone, often offers us the opportunity to let go of our need to control, finding balance in our lives and teaching us to recognize that we are neither accepted or rejected in our relationships. When this chakra is open our feelings freely flow without us being over - emotional. We are open to intimacy and we can be passionate and lively, connecting to our emotions, feelings, relationships and sexuality.

When our base survival needs are met in our root chakra, we are able to look at the other aspects of our life, and this creates desire, which gets us to move, to reach out, to grow and to change. The person whose sacral chakra is activated can dedicate themselves fully to their careers or get involved in other people and tolerate different opinions.

Here's how to heal this chakra and balance it:

While working on healing your sacral chakra try to wear the color orange as much as possible this will connect you to this energy.

In a nice quiet location take an orange and cut it open. Smell the orange, the citrus smell of the orange will connect you to your sexuality, the fruit of you. There is a biblical saying, "to bear fruit" used to mean that which you create in your life. So while you inhale the aroma of the orange, close your eyes and put your hand on the area just below your bellybutton. Visualize an orange ball of energy radiating and rotating out from this area of your body. Take a deep breath and slowly exhale and release any negative energy stored in this area.

Here are some affirmations to say while your connecting to this energy:

I am connected to my creative source, I am a creation, I am a creative being, I am creating beautiful experiences in my life, I am creating beautiful intimate relationships, I am comfortable with my sexuality, I am comfortable being touched, I am comfortable receiving love, I am comfortable in my own skin, I am comfortable in my relationships, I am expressing my creative genius, I am expressing my sexuality in healthy ways that honor me, I am loved for who I am, I am enough, I am open to the truth of who I am, I am expressing my pure creativity.

Now take a deep breath and feel your energy open, let go of the negative energy and receive the positive energy.
