HW: Chakra #1, Root Chakra
Root Chakra- Chakra #1. Our root Chakra is denoted by the color red. It is the Chakra at the base of the spine, rooting into the earth. This is the Chakra that helps us feel grounded in our lives and our intentions. The energy of this Chakra is Earth energy, this gives us our feeling of belonging, safety, and grounding. My root Chakra always seems to be in hiding. I am constantly being reminded in subtle and loud ways to low down and root down. I have to make sure I slow down and really root into where I am. I am currently doing the most work on this Chakra and connecting, and reconnecting, to my roots. It is important for my students to feel this grounding energy, not only in my class but through life. We need to feel our roots in Mother Earth to know we are a part of something bigger and all connected with the beautiful Earth energy (prana) to keep us rooted and grounded and remind us that our Mother Earth needs us as we need her. In the root chakra series we focus on the lower legs, and grounding our energy down towards Mother Earth. I find this difficult because I am not very grounded, but I am working on it. I am focused more on my muscles than on rooting into the Earth in some of the longer and more challenging poses.
