The "base chakra" gets blocked, got to find out how and why?
It was Wednesday meditation evening and Tilly did not hesitate organising herself to get out of the house and getting to the venue ahead of time. Her goal was to find out more about a blocked base chakra.
As it panned out the teacher invited queries on chakra number one. Tilly heard - Everyday living blocks all chakras, we are eternal beings having a human life. We came to Earth to experience the whole gamut of emotions. I know this sounds strange, even weird and whacky, but bear with me. Dealing with the whole spectrum of is very hard, it gets on top of us as we experience hurt, anger and rejection. A blocked base chakra can occur as a result of fear, anxiety and depression and conflict. For example, not getting the job you went for, when your creativity is not flowing, the emotional loss of a love and the loss of a loved one through death effectively lessens the functioning of this chakra.
The base chakra is your life force that runs through you like an engine from the time you are born to the time your physical body dies. It cannot be cut off altogether when alive. But if it is blocked you are likely to experience any of the feelings to do with unimportance, aloneness, emotional confusion, loveless, motivationless and a low need for sexual activity. You may feel insecure.
Tilly was riveted, attempting to make sense of what she was hearing. She has felt these emotions, and all this time my base chakras could have been stuck? Then she heard the teacher say you can fix it, it is up to you. There are a number of different ways. It is as simple as standing on grass, walking each day, sitting in a yoga position visualising a red glow at the base of spine, see it pulsating as you breathe in and out deeply in a relaxed state. Wearing or holding the crystals, like bloodstone, jasper, obsidian and or red carnelian is recommended. They are associated with the base chakra. Frankincense, patchouli and Angelica are essential oils related to this chakra.
The teacher finished saying Muladhara, a Sanskrit word for this chakra and then saying that another word description is the root chakra. Tilly brain was buzzing, so much information. She welcomed the quietness of meditation trying to see red, but she only saw the colour violet.
Cheers and blessings

Howdy angiemitchell! very interesting, I didn't know that crystals played into it. She still couldn't visualize red because she still had blockage?
Hey janton, no I don't think so. Trying to visualise a colour and seeing it with your third eye is not easy. It could be that Tilly is more in align with her crown chakra. Violet is its colour. I am like this, I see the colour in my brain but don't necessarily see it.
So you meditate and if so do you see any colours?
howdy again angiemitchell! No I don't really meditate in that way. Are you supposed to visualize colors in your type of meditation?
Hey janton, it just happens. I just go with it, slow breathing alway works for me to go into a meditative state.
howdy today angiemitchell! yes slow breathing and relaxing is what everyone needs to practice I believe but few of us do!
Hey janton, it worth clearing the mind and going into a zen mode. It is like having a nanny nap.
