Popularly known as the Swadhisthan Chakra, it is the second chakra above the Basic Chakra, located in the Lower Abdomen, just 2 inches below the naval (spanning the sacrum and lower back). This is the second primary energy centre in the traditional yogic and tantric system. Its colour is Vibrant Orange and the element is water.
It is the centre of creativity, emotions, sensuality, pleasure and emotional flow. Swadhisthan Chakra in Sanskrit translates to “dwelling place of the self”. The important physical association of the Sacral Chakra is reproductive organs, kidneys, bladder and the Lumber Spine.
Sacral Chakra is blocked by guilt. When energy flow is disrupted, you might experience either being blocked or inactive. If blocked, you may feel emotional numbness, low libido, fear of change or a general sense of stagnation. If it is over active, the person feels extreme mood swings, co-dependency or being entirely controlled by fluctuating emotions. Some Yogic asanas with Meditation help to heal this chakra .
