Feelings Of Pleasure Or Being Jealous

🏵️How much pleasure do you take from your sensory inputs🏵️

🌺Ever felt awestruck with the beauty of a flower🌺

🍃🍃 Maybe a breeze that swept you towards your sweet childhood memories👼… elated your day.

Our second chakra, Svadhisthana (Sva = self; Shthana = place; the residence of the self ) holds the key to unlock and harness the energy we need to be innovative, productive, and creative.

The same also represents the base emotions of sexuality and creativity.

The sacral chakra is the driving force behind the creativity, sensuality, pleasure, and enjoyment you get from using your five senses.

That means, If you feel good from seeing, hearing, tasting, or touching something, your sacral chakra is whirling in balance. 

Whereas, if you are unable to process the simulations from your sense organs and lack that pleasure feeling, your second Chakra needs your attention.

Also, if the feeling of pleasure is so intense that it makes you turn possessive and you tend to grab those objects, there might be too much energy flowing in your Svadhisthana area.

In either of the cases, a balance in energies is required. And here comes the role of yoga kriyas to open sacral Chakra!

Place Of Your Svadhisthana

 

The Svadhisthana Chakra is situated at the lower end of the Sacrum and occupies the entire womb area

The sacral region (sacrum) is at the bottom of the spine and lies between the fifth segment of the lumbar spine (L5) and the coccyx (tailbone).

Svadhisthana Symbol

Symbolically, Svadhishthana Chakra is represented as a lotus with six petals, within which there is a crescent moon. The color of Svadhisthana is orange.

These represent our negative qualities which are to be overcome – 

Anger, hatred, jealousy, cruelty, desire, and pride. 

Other base qualities that hinder our development are-

Lethargy, fear, doubt, revenge, envy, and greed.

The Bija Mantra for Svadhisthana is  VAM

 

Kundalini Yoga Kriyas  Vs Hatha Yoga

 

 Hatha is mostly focused on the physical practice of yoga.

 The physical poses of Kundalini Yoga are taken from Hatha. 

The biggest difference is that Kundalini yogis incorporate mantras and breathing exercises with the physical poses more often than any other form of yoga.

Kriyas are basically the repetition of some of the postures which you can observe in the video of Kundalini yoga to open Sacral Chakra.

Also, Kundalini yoga has more emphasis on meditation and mantras than Hatha yoga.

 

Svadhisthana- Where The Seed Of Human Consciousness Germinates

 

The Svadhishthana Chakra marks the second level of our development. The evolution of consciousness towards pure, human consciousness begins in the Svadhishthana Chakra. 

It is the seat of the subconscious mind where all life experiences and impressions since the beginning of our existence in the womb are stored. 

While the Muladhara is the storehouse of our Karmas, these are activated in Svadhishthana.

 

Potential issues with the Sacral Chakra 

 

Lower back pain, lower gastrointestinal problems, decreased libido, isolative behavior, lack of creativity and passion, and addictive behaviors that numb and dissociate.

  • Palms below the shoulders and knees below the hips.
  • Inhale open from your front and hips.
  • Exhale, round your back, head down and coccyx down.

 

 This posture is the best warm-up to start your yoga practice. It also stimulates all the chakras because of the full spinal movements. 

Since our Sacral Chakra is situated in the womb area, try to initiate your motion from this area. Keeping your focus on the orange color Svadhisthana Chakra.

At the end of the cow pose, inhale, hold your breath, apply root lock by contracting your pelvic floor muscles, sexual organs,  thus sending the energy upwards.

Exhale round your back and apply the root lock once again in the CAT pose.

  • Bend your knees, round your back, knee to nose.
  • Arch your back, open your legs,  bend your knees and try touching your right knee with your nose.
  • After a few rounds, Repeat on the other side.
