Opening the Lower Chakras: Harmonizing the Root, Sacral & Solar Plexus Chakras with Essential Oils

The Lower Chakras – Roots, Emotions, and Stability

The lower chakras form our energetic foundation – security, joy of life, and self-confidence. When blockages occur here, we feel insecurity, stagnant energy, or emotional instability. In this article, you will learn how to gently open and harmonize the root, sacral, and solar plexus chakras with essential oils.

The lower three chakras form the energetic foundation of our lives. They are closely connected to our physical presence, security, primal trust, sexuality, and inner strength. When these chakras are balanced, we feel grounded, courageous, and emotionally stable. When they are blocked, we experience fear, stress, insecurity, or physical tension.

Root Chakra (Muladhara)

The root chakra is located at the base of the spine. It represents security, stability, primal trust, and a sense of belonging.

A balanced Muladhara brings peace, serenity, and a deep feeling of security.

Typical Blockages

• Worries

• Existential Fears

• Nervousness

• Physical Tension

Helpful Essential Oils

• Patchouli

• Cedarwood

• Bergamot

• Black Pepper

A very effective ritual is to apply the oil directly to the lower back or the soles of the feet – this is where the energy can be most thoroughly grounded.

Sacral Chakra (Svadhisthana)

The sacral chakra is located about a hand's breadth below the navel and represents joy, sensuality, sexuality, and creativity.

Blockages often manifest as:

• lack of motivation

• low self-esteem

• sexual blockages

• mood swings

Solar Plexus (Manipura)

This chakra is located between the chest and navel. It represents willpower, self-confidence, and inner strength.

Blocked?

Then we experience:

• Self-doubt

• Helplessness

• Anger

• Perfectionism

Helpful Oi

• Vetiver

• Geranium

• Lemongrass

Applying these oils clockwise on the abdomen is particularly effective in releasing trapped emotions.

A Small Ritual with Essential Oils

Gently massage it into your lower abdomen or the soles of your feet
