#chakraexercise

Root chakra exercise : 

1- Lie on the floor, arms by your side and knees bent. Soles of your feet shoulder width apart. Take a deep breath in then press your lower back into the floor as you breath out.

2- With the out breath, push your buttocks upward, starting at the lower thigh, then moving upward to the groin and pelvis. Imagine a string connected to your tailbone being pulled towards the ceiling. Make sure your lower legs are vertical.

3- Continue pushing upwards for as long as it feels comfortable. 

This month I’m opening my muladhara-chakra, or better known as first chakra, or root-chakra. I’ll be able to this by focussing on my pelvis, the colour red, the mantra LAM, the earth, the vow U, passion and smells. 

During every flow I will slip in exercises that help activating my root-chakra. Examples are:

-Shift-breathing exercise. This is a way to relieve stress and to concentrate on the flow ahead. 

-Cat-cow. This is practiced on hands and knees. You concave your spine in the cat-stand and convex your spine in cow-stand.

-Crow. Make a deep squat and point toes outward. You try to keep your feet flat on the ground.
