Transcript
Hi, and welcome to another episode of the Art of Life podcast.
Speaker:I am Kanika.
Speaker:I'm your host.
Speaker:And today we are going to talk about the sacral chakra, or the
Speaker:second energy center in our bodies.
Speaker:Now I did another episode on this earlier, but I got so many comments and questions,
Speaker:people wanted to understand it more.
Speaker:So I thought this was absolutely worthwhile, especially sacral can be a
Speaker:place where a lot of us can be blocked.
Speaker:So it's really good to understand it a lot better.
Speaker:The root chakra is a foundational chakra, which means this is the place
Speaker:where you really identify yourself, you understand who you are and so on.
Speaker:Then second chakra builds up from that foundational space.
Speaker:Second chakra is a very relational chakra.
Speaker:Second chakra is where you start understanding your relationships
Speaker:with everyone and then figure out, oh, this is how I am within this
Speaker:bigger picture, within the world.
Speaker:So whether this is when you're growing up in your household, whether this is
Speaker:understanding your relationships with your mom and dad, within the immediate
Speaker:family, and then as you keep growing, you go to school, so you understand your
Speaker:relationships within the school, with your teachers, with your classmates and so on.
Speaker:And then as you grow up, it goes on within your workspace,
Speaker:understanding, oh, this is how I'm.
Speaker:appreciated in the workplace and then building onto your relationships,
Speaker:your personal relationships and understanding love from that perspective.
Speaker:So all your body chakras are very much around experiences in the body and so
Speaker:is the sacral chakra as well, right?
Speaker:Very much around experiencing relationships from that perspective.
Speaker:But all your body chakras, their lesson or encouragement to you is
Speaker:also to really come back to you and to operate from your own center.
Speaker:So while you experience all your emotions.
Speaker:with the outside world, with whatever significant relationships they are,
Speaker:while you experience your emotions with them, it's really coming back
Speaker:and then being able to operate from your own sense of alignment.
Speaker:So all your significant relationships are pre thought of, pre planned
Speaker:before you come on earth.
Speaker:You know, you choose your mom and dad for a particular reason
Speaker:because there's something that you want to learn from them.
Speaker:Similar way you have agreements in place with your significant partners,
Speaker:with your significant friends, with your significant teachers and so on.
Speaker:All the significant people that you are going to have in your life.
Speaker:You have an agenda.
Speaker:So to say, because there is a particular evolution that you want to have on
Speaker:earth, so you have pre determined, this is what I want to learn.
Speaker:Now if you've done your lesson, then you might not need that
Speaker:lesson in your relationship, right?
Speaker:But if you really need that, then these people are there basically to help you.
Speaker:with your evolution.
Speaker:So even places where you feel like, ah, this wasn't a great experience
Speaker:at all, my ex was horrible and so on.
Speaker:Understand that all of these relationships happened because you needed them
Speaker:at a soul level to evolve and grow.
Speaker:So in that sense, all of these relationships, they are there to help you.
Speaker:Now, whether you feel emotional with them, whether you feel a sense of lack with
Speaker:them, whether you feel joyous with them, all of that is just part of the package.
Speaker:But yes, in the body, it definitely can feel a lot heavy sometimes,
Speaker:which is why a lot of humankind is actually stuck in the second chakra.
Speaker:Even if you considered people around you.
Speaker:you would see a lot of the challenges are around the relationship space, whether
Speaker:that's parenting, whether that is your own parents, whether that is your relationship
Speaker:with your friends or with your loved ones, your significant relationships
Speaker:with a partner, that is where most of the humankind has troubles or challenges.
Speaker:This is where a lot of us are working through.
Speaker:Right?
Speaker:Now, to understand this chakra more, consider the element that
Speaker:this chakra has and that's water.
Speaker:So think of a stream of water and as a stream of water comes down from a
Speaker:mountain, the sediments are at the bottom of the stream and so the water as it comes
Speaker:down from the mountain, even when it's just starting, when it has a lot of force,
Speaker:that water seems very clear and pure.
Speaker:And in fact in a lot of places, there are people who worship that
Speaker:mountain or they will worship that river, the stream and so on as well.
Speaker:But take the same water.
Speaker:and contain it in some place with that same force, contain it in a little area.
Speaker:And immediately what starts happening is that that water, because now it's
Speaker:not very separated from the sediments of the rock and the sand there, it
Speaker:starts mixing with that and that same water starts looking a lot muddier.
Speaker:It's the same thing that happens in your sacral chakra.
Speaker:Your emotions that you feel with your mom, dad, your lover, your
Speaker:children, they are all supposed to flow like water and then go.
Speaker:But we are often not able to process them as much at a human
Speaker:level and so it just starts getting very muddy and foggy and so on.
Speaker:Now for all the other things to go.
Speaker:and happen in the human body, it starts from the base up, right?
Speaker:Base was the root chakra, that needs to feel great.
Speaker:Then your second chakra needs to feel great.
Speaker:But often what happens is that in the second chakra with all the
Speaker:sogginess of the containment, the heaviness of the water, we all are
Speaker:not able to drain that heaviness out.
Speaker:Now, if your root chakra, if your foundation is not great, then
Speaker:that creation doesn't happen.
Speaker:But most importantly, if, that doesn't happen at the sacral chakra, the water
Speaker:can just overtake everything else.
Speaker:Like if you have a lot of water, fire cannot sustain over it.
Speaker:You can't really contain it, right?
Speaker:Like if it gets very soggy, if it's just not draining that water,
Speaker:that's water starts smelling, that water is just not good for creation.
Speaker:Right?
Speaker:So the first and foremost, what we need to do anyway is just release
Speaker:the heavy waters that are holding us.
Speaker:Now the emotion that we hold here, water is emotions, the emotion that we hold
Speaker:here can span the whole emotional frame, so they can go all the way from apathy,
Speaker:sadness, so on, and go all the way up to joy and amusement and enlightenment, etc.
Speaker:But the way to release that water would be literally imagining that
Speaker:in a meditation space and letting all of that soggy water go away.
Speaker:So what you could do is imagine that your second chakra, which is
Speaker:just below your belly button, just imagine that whole area is connected
Speaker:right to the center of the earth.
Speaker:The center of the earth is the heart of Gaia.
Speaker:This is where she holds a lot of love for you.
Speaker:And she's actually wanting to really give you a nice big healing.
Speaker:Just imagine that connection with her and allow her to take off all the
Speaker:stress and worries from your space.
Speaker:When you do that, you're really able to release that heaviness of the water.
Speaker:If you wanted to practice this more, because I've just really explained
Speaker:it, haven't done a proper meditation here, but if you wanted to really do
Speaker:this in a lot more sustainable way and be supported in that process, you are
Speaker:welcome to join my Moon Meditation Circle.
Speaker:It is a sacred healing circle where we get together bi weekly and then we all cleanse
Speaker:whatever is holding us stuck in our lives.
Speaker:and create a space of manifesting to bring in all the good things and desires.
Speaker:At the moment, I'm offering a free 30 day trial, so you're welcome to
Speaker:check it out at artoflifecenter.
Speaker:com slash moon.
Speaker:That is center with a C E N T E R.
Speaker:So just go ahead to artoflifecenter.
Speaker:com slash moon.
Speaker:And there you can just pop in for the free trial and you'll get to experience
Speaker:the goodness of being able to release and create more abundance in your life.
Speaker:So that's one thing that you can do
Speaker:The second thing that you can do is within your meditation space again,
Speaker:just imagine having this water and just really cleaning the water.
Speaker:So this is very soggy water, imagine draining it out and then
Speaker:bringing a fresh new bucket in.
Speaker:Your sacral chakra has emotions or memories from all the people that
Speaker:you are interacting with, especially all the key people in your life.
Speaker:And the funny thing is, it's not even just this lifetime, it
Speaker:is lifetimes even beyond that.
Speaker:So whatever your ancestors thought, your whole family legacy, they're
Speaker:all within the sacral chakra.
Speaker:Whatever kids you've had, kids you've lost, people you've lost, they are
Speaker:all stored in the sacral chakra.
Speaker:So it's very vital to clean the sacral chakra out.
Speaker:And one technique I've given you definitely is just grounding and
Speaker:connecting your sacral chakra with the center of the earth.
Speaker:The other thing that you can imagine, this is water space, right?
Speaker:So all your reproductive organs, they really store a
Speaker:lot of this energy, obviously.
Speaker:So just imagine them as sponges and then squeeze them out.
Speaker:So let them clean out a lot of the stuff that they are carrying and then imagine
Speaker:replenishing this with pure gold water.
Speaker:So then you get pure gold energy back there and that is
Speaker:your highest alignment energy.
Speaker:And that should help you feel a lot of relief.
Speaker:Now, a lot of times in general, why we are really feeling stuck is because we are
Speaker:trying to operate from the outside inside.
Speaker:And what I mean by that is that we look at what are people wanting out of us,
Speaker:what is our family wanting out of us, what is society wanting out of us, what
Speaker:is company wanting out of us, what is someone else wanting out of us, and
Speaker:then we try and operate with that dial.
Speaker:But that's a big problem.
Speaker:Because you come into the world with your own life lessons, with your
Speaker:own evolution, what you want to do, so you have an inner compass here.
Speaker:But if you operate it from someone else's compass, and even if they're really
Speaker:good or if they're well meaning, there's still chances that their compass and your
Speaker:compass is not going to align because they have a different body, they just
Speaker:have a very different agenda, they have a very different way of thinking, so it's
Speaker:not going to align with yours, right?
Speaker:And hence when you operate with an outside compass, you're not
Speaker:going to experience peace inside.
Speaker:The only way to experience inner peace is to operate with your inner
Speaker:compass, with your inner alignment.
Speaker:And that's what your sacral chakra is asking you to do, coming back to your
Speaker:own emotions and how are you feeling.
Speaker:Meditate and really go down to the bottom of why you're feeling bad,
Speaker:why you're feeling any guilt, any shame, all the heavy emotions that
Speaker:can be here, but really boil it down to why you're feeling bad.
Speaker:And the more you go to yourself, you realize that there's nothing
Speaker:in life that's actually happening without your divine agreement.
Speaker:I'm sorry if that doesn't sound very pleasing to hear on the first go, but you
Speaker:are a soul that has taken shape on earth.
Speaker:First and foremost, you are that soul and there's nothing that happens in
Speaker:your life without that agreement.
Speaker:There's nothing that happens without somewhere, an agreement being there
Speaker:that you wanted to undergo that lesson.
Speaker:And hence, whatever happens, happens with your agreement.
Speaker:Now you might not know it at a body level and you might still feel not great at a
Speaker:body level and that's absolutely okay.
Speaker:Which is why you sit down and you ground those emotions and
Speaker:you start feeling a lot better.
Speaker:Maybe you also check all of this in another way.
Speaker:Think of your inner talk.
Speaker:Think of your self talk.
Speaker:And how do you talk to yourself?
Speaker:You know, if you are feeling guilty, if you are feeling grief about
Speaker:something, if you're feeling shame about something, okay, let that come
Speaker:out and then listen to that voice.
Speaker:Is that you?
Speaker:Or is that your mum?
Speaker:Is that your teacher?
Speaker:Is that your dad?
Speaker:Is that someone who you really loved?
Speaker:Chances are you will find that your inner voice is not your inner voice,
Speaker:it is someone else's judgement, someone else's perception coming through to you.
Speaker:But don't be disheartened with that insight because
Speaker:this is a really good step.
Speaker:Now that you know this, now you can really work through this.
Speaker:Now you can really go to yourself and you can go, okay, this is
Speaker:how I want my message to be.
Speaker:So maybe you feel grief about something.
Speaker:You lost something, Just go to, okay, what is the lesson that you can get from
Speaker:this place, and then talk to yourself, build that self talk model for yourself,
Speaker:that you talk to yourself a lot more compassionately, and re rearrange your
Speaker:self talk, rewrite your self talk to yourself, rewrite that voice to yourself.
Speaker:The element here is water, and let's talk about water again.
Speaker:We looked at the muddy water, we looked at how yucky it can make you feel inside.
Speaker:So now let's look at just purifying the water and what can that do.
Speaker:So once you've started meditating, once you've started grounding, once
Speaker:you've really started changing your inner voice, you'll notice that
Speaker:your water is getting a lot clearer.
Speaker:But first, within your body, you don't need to hold as much water because
Speaker:if there's just too much water, then a lot of creation can't happen.
Speaker:So think of the first chakra, the element was earth, right?
Speaker:But if earth just has a lot of water, you cannot really have very
Speaker:sustaining plantation on that.
Speaker:Yes, there's some plants like rice, which need a lot of water, but not
Speaker:a whole lot of growth needs as much water needs as much emotions to it.
Speaker:So there should just be a very good drainage system.
Speaker:And that would mean that just let a lot of your water flow,
Speaker:let a lot of the emotions flow.
Speaker:Females actually have a very good way.
Speaker:They have their monthly cycles that come and that's nature's way.
Speaker:If you have a female body, that's a very good way for you to tap in
Speaker:every time you have your period.
Speaker:One of your intention can be that, Oh, let me release any of the stress, anxiety.
Speaker:and stuff that I'm holding within me and let me just release that.
Speaker:If you are a male, you can still have that intention and yes, you wouldn't
Speaker:have period, but you can just ground, you can sit down, meditate, or you can
Speaker:go on a walk, whatever works for you.
Speaker:Just start asking for guidance on how can you let those heavier
Speaker:emotions go, especially if there are automatic thoughts where you
Speaker:feel that you keep coming back to.
Speaker:There are automatic worries that you cannot seem to get away from.
Speaker:Then ask for guidance from the universe and go, hey, how do I do this?
Speaker:And definitely if you feel like you are really ready to take
Speaker:the next step, check out my moon meditation circle at ArtofLifeCenter.
Speaker:com slash moon.
Speaker:With water, you want to work with that water energy.
Speaker:You really want it to flow and then you really want it to be nice and clean
Speaker:before you can start creating something.
Speaker:And that brings me to the juice of the sacral chakra.
Speaker:A lot of times sacral chakra can just be thought of as that chakra around
Speaker:emotions and sexuality and it is that, but sexuality itself is, again, it is
Speaker:very limited in the definition, right?
Speaker:Like we think of it as just the act, but sexuality is a whole lot of creation,
Speaker:like life wouldn't happen without that.
Speaker:And this is that sacred space.
Speaker:Sacral chakra is the sacred space for your creativity.
Speaker:Whatever it is you want to create, that passion, that energy, that
Speaker:very self sustaining, nurturing flow is that Sacral Chakra.
Speaker:It is immensely powerful in your creativity, whatever you want to create.
Speaker:Once you've let go of the heavy emotions, then there's clear water.
Speaker:Just like water is very essential for life, water is very essential for your
Speaker:creation and your life form as well.
Speaker:Whatever you came out to create, once you're able to settle your
Speaker:emotions, the emotion that will come up are the much higher level emotions
Speaker:and they are the ones that really help you tap into your creativity.
Speaker:Whether you wanted to write a book, whether you wanted to set
Speaker:up a new business, all of that stems from your sacral chakra.
Speaker:So it's very important to ground your sacral chakra.
Speaker:It's very important to clean this whole area, clean, heal this whole area.
Speaker:And it's also very important to use the creative energy here.
Speaker:There's a lot of creative force that you have within the sacral chakra.
Speaker:And when you start really aligning your energy, then this creative
Speaker:force starts flowing through you.
Speaker:It goes into your throat, it goes into your third chakra, which
Speaker:is very much your inner sun.
Speaker:This is your center of doing, of bringing things into physical form.
Speaker:It goes into your hands as well, so you can start writing and so on.
Speaker:But that's how your creative force starts flowing.
Speaker:And that's one of the exercises that you can do when you are visualizing as well.
Speaker:Imagining your creative force from your sacral chakra flowing up, flowing
Speaker:up into your throat, flowing up into your hands and your hand chakras,
Speaker:definitely flowing up into your third.
Speaker:imagining that flow happening because that's how you start
Speaker:creating things in your world.
Speaker:This is really that creative juice.
Speaker:This is, this is the fun of having a very balanced sacral
Speaker:chakra, your ability to create.
Speaker:Actually, if you're feeling a lack of motivation, that means somewhere
Speaker:that your emotions are stuck.
Speaker:Just go ahead, ground those.
Speaker:And if you are wanting to really supercharge your motivation, there's
Speaker:a new project that you want to do.
Speaker:For that, just start fueling up your creativity.
Speaker:The creativity here in the sacral chakra, is life force, whether you are a man or
Speaker:a woman, this is where life is born from.
Speaker:So, think of this force and think of what you can do if you just started
Speaker:channeling this life force and really bringing it throughout your own body
Speaker:and really having it flow everywhere.
Speaker:Whatever you wanted to create stems from this space.
Speaker:This is not just for sex.
Speaker:It is a lot more around creation.
Speaker:It's around just forming the whole human experience around you however you want.
Speaker:This is a very, very powerful energy.
Speaker:So what you can do in a meditation space for this is just imagine that
Speaker:first, spend time, clear out your muddy water, whatever heavy emotions
Speaker:that you feel here, take that out.
Speaker:And then imagine that when you've got the water, which is really clear,
Speaker:imagine that traveling up everywhere in your body and giving it life
Speaker:because that truly is what it is.
Speaker:It is life force.
Speaker:Do that.
Speaker:The last thing that I would just talk about a sacral chakra before I wrap this
Speaker:up is it is a very relational chakra.
Speaker:So there are a lot of people, those memories that we have stored up
Speaker:here, memories from our ancestors, just family programming that runs
Speaker:across generations and generations.
Speaker:some vows, some agreements that we have made consciously, unconsciously,
Speaker:sometimes like, like lifetimes ago, they all stay in this chakra.
Speaker:So when you are cleaning the sacral chakra out, when you are meditating,
Speaker:it's important to let go of those vows and agreements and just set your
Speaker:intent that you let go of any vows, agreements that are not serving you.
Speaker:Because you have free will, you are on a free will planet.
Speaker:So I hope that gives you a good understanding about the sacral chakra.
Speaker:If you have further questions, please reach out to me.
Speaker:I will have link in the show notes and do leave a review as well.
Speaker:That definitely helps more people find the show.
Speaker:Thanks a lot for your time.
Speaker:I really appreciate you listening and coming back to me with questions.
Speaker:Lots and lots of love.
Speaker:I wish you the best.
Speaker:Take care.
Speaker:See you soon.
