A Closer look at the Sacral (Navel) Chakra The
Sacral Chakra allows us to explore and enjoy our existence, to develop emotions
and attachments. The Sacral Chakra is often under stress from its negative
characteristics of rigidity and restriction. The rigidity can be at a physical
level with tension in the lower back, digestive problems of the lower intestine,
bladder or kidney trouble. It may also manifest as sexual tension, either
emotionally triggered or with physical symptoms that can cause impotence or
frigidity and as menstrual pain and irregular periods.
Using Crystal Healing
to balance the Sacral Chakra energies can help by releasing these built up
toxins. The Sacral Chakra is also where our deep emotional responses are
registered. Suppressed emotions may get locked in our muscle structures and
subtle energy systems. They can manifest as anxiety, anger, frustration and
aggression, depriving us of the enjoyment of playfulness and creativity.
Tension
and fear can alienate us from ourselves and our surroundings. Blocked energy
disrupts normal function and can lead to illness. Working on the Sacral Chakra
can help us keep the spontaneity in our lives. It will release blocks, stress
and trauma and detoxify the whole system.
