2nd chakra Sacral (Swadhisthana)

                         

                                              Sacral Chakra (Swadhisthana)

 
           The sacral chakra is the second of 7 main energy centers or vortexes that govern the way we feel about ourselves and the universe. The sacral chakra is located in the lower abdomen just below the naval and is associated with the color orange. The sacral chakra is where our creativity starts is where we "feel" life, where we experience passion and pleasure. Our self esteem is stored in this chakra and it is often blocked by feeling of guilt or fear from the past. When we open our sacral chakra we are able to go with the flow and have intimate relationships, we feel creative and free and have  strong sense of self worth.
