Welcome October

Each Month we will bring attention to a Chakra ( Energy Center) that correlates to a Nerve Plexus along the main Energy and Nerve channel, the Shushumna  or Spinal column.  To cultivate and know Balance, Integration, Harmony and Bliss. As with Intentions, it is planting a Seed, what you want in the end must be present in the beginning.

This month we begin with the Root Chakra located at the base of  the Spine.

This center is about Groundedness, foundation and security. It reflects the relationship we have to our survival, shelter, food, water, sleep, sustenance, and money.

How do we tend to our Home, the one we embody and the shelter we live in?
