Root Chakra

ROOT CHAKRA

Please find below some questions for self-examination on the root chakra. I recommend that you spend some time thinking and meditating on each question individually.

1. What belief patterns did you inherit from your family?
2. Which of those belief patterns that still have authority in your thinking can you acknowledge are no longer valid?
3. What superstitions do you have? Which have more authority over you than your reasoning ability?
4. Do you have a personal code of honour? What is it?
5. Have you ever compromised your sense of honour? If so, have you taken steps to heal it?
6. Do you have any unfinished business with your family members? If so, list the reasons that prevent you from healing your family relationships
7. List all the blessings that you feel came from your family.
8. If you are now raising a family of your own list the qualities that you would like your children to learn from you.
9. What tribal traditions and rituals do you continue for yourself and your family.
10. Describe the tribal characteristics within yourself that you would like to strengthen and develop.

For those who are interested in buying (online) the book that the workshop was based upon, the title is 'Anatomy of Spirit' and the author is Caroline Myss.

NOTES:
LOCATION: The first chakra is located at the base of the spine.

PETALS: This chakra rules the lowest vibration of our body and has the slowest wavelength. There are four spokes, or petals. Four is the number of the square and foundations. The square is related to being honest, or giving a "square deal, the four energies of earth--earth, air, fire, and water, and the four directions. Four walls, four legs, or four wheels represent a strong foundation.

NOTE & MANTRA: The note for this chakra is C and the mantra is "lam" or "e" as in red. Chanting these mantras in the key of D while focusing our attention on this area of our body can enable us to more consciously access the first chakra.

COLOR: The colour for this chakra is red, which is the lowest frequency of human's visible light spectrum. Red is the colour of anger and/or vitality.

RULES: The first chakra rules our PHYSICAL energies. Also known as the root chakra, it governs our vigor, heredity, survival, security, passion, money, job, and home. This chakra aids us in our everyday survival.
