How to Unblock the Sacral Chakra

How to unblock the Sacral chakra

1. 1

   Work with color-matched crystals

   Hold or wear Citrine, Carnelian, Moonstone at the just below the navel. The tradition pairs the Sacral chakra with orange stones.

2. 2

   Move with Water-element yoga

   Goddess Pose (Utkata Konasana), Pigeon Pose (Eka Pada Rajakapotasana), Bound Angle Pose (Baddha Konasana). These poses are traditionally associated with opening the Sacral chakra.

3. 3

   Meditate on the center

   This is the water center, so use actual water rather than a pictured one. Fill a shallow bowl and set it where a lamp or a late window can reach it. Rest a water-safe orange stone against the rim, carnelian rather than orange calcite, which dissolves. Then tip the bowl a little and watch the light come apart across the surface and put itself back together, over and over, without your help. Svadhisthana is drawn around a white crescent because this center was understood as tidal, never fixed. Stay until you have stopped trying to make the water do anything.

4. 4

   Speak the affirmations

   Repeat affirmations like "I allow pleasure and joy to flow through my life." daily. See the affirmations guide linked below.

5. 5

   Nourish with Water-element foods

   Orange fruits (oranges, mangoes, peaches), Seeds and nuts, Coconut and tropical fruits. The tradition associates these with the Sacral chakra.
