The Root Chakra

Today you will dig deeply into the 1st of the 7 Chakras. The rooted Muladhara also known as the Root or Base Chakra.

Think of your souls energy coming into its physical form, your body. This primal energy connecting you to the earth, your ancestors, your roots, your DNA.

Located at the base of your spine your Root Chakra develops from birth to 7 years old.
