Imbalance in the Sacral Chakra can be caused by: body shaming by parents/peers/lovers, a strict or authoritarian upbringing, sexual abuse, toxic relationships, religious indoctrination, being taken advantage of sexually or otherwise

Also societal conditioning such as: love and sex only looks one certain way and is between one man and one woman, strong emotions are bad and should be hidden (especially in men), people who are creative/artists/unconventionally express themselves don't live in the "real world", women tend to overact and become hysterical; is it that time of the month?, being an artist is a fantasy/unrealistic/no way to make a living

Eat root vegetables and other red foods. Spent time in nature, hike, garden, hug a tree. Stomp your feet to connect with the earth or ground. Walk barefoot outside. Tend to your house plants, check on t (1).jpg
