Chakra 2: Sacral
Chakra Practice • 37m
Sacral Chakra (38 minutes)
Welcome to video 2 in the Chakra series. Today, we explore the Sacral or Svadhisthana Chakra. The Sacral Chakra is located within the pelvic area and is associated with the colour orange. Through this energetic centre within our bodies, we are invited to explore our emotions, pleasure, intimacy, connections with others, sensuality, birth and creativity.
In this physical practice, you are invited to connect with your creativity and allow yourself to shine from the inside out, moving with pleasure and ease.
This practice begins with a chakra meditation, building from the root chakra into the sacral chakra. This creative flow than moves through a series of short flowing postures on your hands and knees, aimed at awakening movement in the pelvic region. Explore deep hip openers through a lunge series and pigeon pose. Finally, you are invited to explore a grounding standing series that includes a standing balance pose with a unique dristi or focal point that evokes the Svadhisthana chakra. This practice ends with a supported bridge pose and restorative savasana.
