I’m starting an Instastory Chakra series! I could probably spend over a month talking strictly chakras & mindbody. So I decided to create an chakra series. Today is about the Root Chakra: ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ How we do one thing is how we do everything,⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Our resistant patterns can show up in some funky ways,⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ One thing is they can show up as we’re doing different things⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Like when I was exploring my lack mindset⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I would find, my childhood food anxiety connected to a self worth belief,⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Which also connected to how I was paranoid on running out of food⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Then it always circled back to feeling lack of support in my life⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ If I don’t feel supported with food,⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I also don’t feel enough to support my body and my health⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ What did this translate to? Neglecting the body…thus often starving myself out of punishment for not feeling good enough. True story.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Which low and behold all connects back to the root chakra,⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Most of my childhood I was sick all the time⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ And so I grew up with a fear of sickness and neglected eatting a lot of the time due to fear of getting sick.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ While I’ve tremendously healed this story, love and know I’m enough and rarely get sick anymore bc I’ve done the deeper level work,⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ It shows me the power behind how our patterns ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Loop in our nervous system and play out in our lives⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ this is why I’m crazy in love with the chakra system⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ It carries the ability to look at our patterns⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Have a map to heal them⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ And then consciously work on empowering each center ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ To activate each chakras hidden gem 💎⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Like the root chakra is really about support and abundance,⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Which allows us to feel supported by our body, by our external world and by our authentic self. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ When we feel supported we activate abundance in our life.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ What chakra stories do you have?! I’d love to hear about them 💙💚💛💜🦄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #chakras
Freedom is nothing else but a chance to be better.
Albert Camus, Resistance, Rebellion, and Death (via philosophybits)
“It is okay to be at a place of struggle. Struggle is just another word for growth. Even the most evolved beings find themselves in a place of struggle now and then. In fact, struggle is a sure sign to them that they are expanding; it is their indication of real and important progress. The only one who doesn’t struggle is the one who doesn’t grow. So if you are struggling right now, see it as a terrific sign — and celebrate your struggle.”
— Neale Donald Walsch (via purplebuddhaquotes)

“Trying to maintain a pleasant state and avoid an unpleasant state is actually the cause of sorrow. When you stop resisting, you see that what seems frightening is actually the absolute beauty of reality. When you see that everything is a momentary display of reality, then you stop resisting it. Resistance hurts, only every single time. Love is the state of nonresistance.”

“My wish is that, one day, formal education will pay attention to the education of the heart, teaching love, compassion, justice, forgiveness, mindfulness, tolerance and peace. We must learn that humanity is one big family. We are all brothers and sisters: physically, mentally and emotionally. But we are still focusing far too much on our differences instead of our commonalities… Intolerance leads to hatred and division. Our children should grow up with the idea that dialogue, not violence, is the best and most practical way to solve conflicts. But this can become reality only if we educate, not just the brain, but also the heart.”
— Dalai Lama
