By Rosanne Fortier
s we move forward into the
AChakra System, the second
chakra is known as the Sacral
Chakra. It is located in the lower
abdomen above the pubic bone
and below the naval. Physically,
it governs the wellness of your
pelvic organs, and represents our
sense of abundance, well-being,
sensuality, and creativity. In
this context, creativity includes
procreation, our interpersonal
relationships, and our expression.
Creative expression may come
in different forms such as visual
arts, music, writing, cooking,
dance, and movement such as
yoga. Signs that this chakra
is stagnant or blocked include
feeling preoccupied with material
accumulation, frustrated with
others, and an underlying need
to control others. If you’re stuck
in the past reliving old stories,
this exercise may help you move
forward, breaking the spell to bring
you into the present moment. To
activate your Sacral Chakra, begin power over the present moment”
