The First Chakra: Root Chakra

The First or Root Chakra is found at the base of the spine, the point you are sitting on right now as you read this post! Its name, Muladhara, means "root," and the paths of energy in this chakra extend downward like a root through the legs and feet to contact the solid earth below.

Its color is a deep red, and its symbol is a lotus of four petals within which is a downward-pointing triangle, symbolizing the root energy.

Agate and Wood Healing Crystal Necklace

The Muladhara or Root Chakra is the foundation for the whole chakra system. Its function is to respond to any issues concerning survival: eating, sleeping, exercising, recovering from illness, making a living, or simply feeling safe and secure. If our survival needs are properly taken care of, then we can safely focus on other levels, such as learning, creativity, or relationships. If there is some damage to the chakra, then we find ourselves repeatedly coping with threats to our survival, which keeps us from accomplishing other things. These threats might be changing jobs, having to move, recurrent health problems, weight problems, or a general feeling of fear for one’s safety.

When the chakra is closed, we lack stability. When it is too open, we are frozen solid. The ideal state would be to have stability and flexibility in balance.

The element associated with the Root Chakra is earth. Earth is solid, earth is heavy, earth is below us, and earth supplies us with our survival needs: food, clothing and shelter.

Eating is a very basic Root Chakra survival activity. Without food, we do not survive very long. Eating disorders often indicate a Root Chakra imbalance. Eating is a grounding activity—it helps to bring us down, helps us to feel settled, calm, secure. Excess weight can be an attempt to ground out high stress, to protect the body, or to replace proper grounding techniques. Eating too little or being chronically underweight can be an attempt to avoid grounding and physicality because it seems too frightening or confining.

Red, black and brown healing crystal gemstones are popular for the Root Chakra. Visit our Root Chakra center to shop our selection of healing crystal jewelry and accessories designed to help heal and open your Root Chakra.

Camping at the Russian River

Refresh your soul and connect with the outdoors like I did this past weekend camping at the Russian River here in Northern California. We can remind ourselves that life does not revolve around technology and civilization, and truly appreciate the earth we are living in.

Of course you should never leave home without your crystals and nature is the perfect place to recharge their energies as well! Run them in a mesh bag in the river, charge them in the open moon light and wear them to keep you grounded to the present moment!

Here are a few pictures from my trip:

Solar Powered Lantern

Fishing by the Russian River

Fresh nature growing over the dry

The 100's of years of a tree compared to humanity

The dusty summer forest floor waiting for the rains

My friends and I enjoying the tall trees

A tub of rocks!

The full moon sky

The Metaphysics of ADHD

Question: Hi! I found you tutorials on YouTube and have visited your online store;) can you help me find stones that can assist with ADHD. My nephew has been diagnosed and I read in my crystal books some stones can help With that, but my local stone shop doesn't have any in store. Let me know if you have any and I can look at them on your site.

Thank you and blessings!

Answer: Hello and thank you for your email and for watching our Crystal Healing Videos on YouTube! Which stones did you read about in your book that aid in ADHD? If you remember or can list the stones via email, we can direct you to the links on our website. If it was just a general statement that stones can help in ADHD, we can give you a bit more insight metaphysically as well.

It is a common myth that all ADHD children are hyperactive and bouncing off the walls. In fact, there are children who do have this excess energy, but there are also children who sit quietly with their attention miles away. By determining your nephew's attention level, we can properly suggest crystal healing stones that will be beneficial for his focus.

Children who are hyperactive have too much physical energy, they are too grounded to the earth and everything they do is spontaneous and aggressive. They need to counteract this energy with high vibration, spiritual and calming stones like Moonstone, Rose Quartz and Amethyst. 

Moonstone for Calm

Amethyst for Spiritual Energy

Rose Quartz for Peace

 

Children who are lost in their own thoughts, or spaced out, have too much spiritual energy, their head is literally "in the clouds". For these children, you will want to give them grounding stones, ones that will connect them with this reality, like Red Jasper, Mochi Stones and Tigers Eye. 

Red Jasper for physical energy

Tigers Eye for empowerment

Mochi Balls for Grounding

These are a few sample stones that your nephew may be attracted to. If possible, you can give him a variety of crystals to experiment with and see which one he is drawn to. You can even show him the stones via the website on the computer and see his response.

For general concentration, Fluorite is a great crystal to help focus and calm the nerves.

If you need any additional information or specific answers to additional questions, please email us!

You may find these stones at Satin Crystals and jewelry form at I Dig Crystals. We can also customize a kit for you or if you don't see what you are looking for, just ask as we get in new crystals every month!

Sincerely,
Sheila Satin

CRYSTALS: Grounding

I woke up in the wee morning today to drop my friend at the airport. In such a hypnotic state between sleep and wake, holding the Golden Tigers Eye I keep in my car's door slot really helped to keep me grounded to reality during my drive.

If nothing else, keep crystals around to remind you of what you should be focused on. Driving allows your mind to wander, especially driving familiar routes, so be sure to keep grounding crystals around you!

CRYSTALS: Chakra Wand

QUESTION: Hi Sheila,Praise the Lord! Recently I have acquired this fantastic chakra wand. As you can see it is powerful and has a lot of energy flowing through it. When I first got it I cleansed it in warm sea salt water and laid it in the sun for a few hours. That evening I laid the stone near my bed on the nightstand and "WOW" what dreams did I have about crystals, people, places and things. The wand was talking to me in my sleep. I began to realize I was traveling to distant places and seeing unfamiliar faces and decided to seek a professional for help before I begin to work with it. Can you help me understand what I’m dealing with? Please advise.

ANSWER: Hi, thanks for your question. It sounds like you have a very deep connection with this chakra wand and it is helping to open you to the spiritual world. First, you have nothing to fear. Opening of your chakras and connecting to the Higher Realms is what the wand is meant to do. Some people will feel this connection more strongly than others. In your case, you fortunate in having this easy access to the higher vibrations that the wand is emitting.

You will do great work with your wand, whether on yourself or others. Make sure that you are always protected by keeping Obsidian on or near you when doing work on others. Also, be sure to ground yourself if you are working with the wand. It seems that the wand is taking you for many astral travels and it could be difficult to get back grounded to earth reality without the help of crystals like Obsidian, Tigers Eye, Jasper, etc...You will want to mentally call all your bodies - spiritual, mental, emotional - to reunite with your physical body whenever you are through working with your wand so that you are balanced as you go about your daily routines.

If you have any additional questions regarding your wand or any other crystal healing questions, please do email me at sheila@idigcrystals.com

Sincerely,
Sheila Satin :)

CRYSTALS: Pyrite Ball

The concentration of minerals make Pyrite a very heavy stone. Great for grounding you back to reality. Pyrite spheres are magnificent to look at, with mysterious craters and crystals forming like in a cave! We get these from Peru (pictured is our last one at the moment).

Healing: Pyrite is very protective. It is excellent to have around when you are doing channeling and spirit work, as it keeps away dark forces and ill energy. Protects from psychic attack. This crystal will help you sustain good health, intellect, and emotional well being. It aids the Abdomen, Bowel, Brain, Bronchitis, Depression, Digestion, Fever, Inflammations, Liver, Lungs, and the Stomach.

CRYSTALS: Spinel

Spinel is great for the root chakra, grounding you to the physical world. It renews your energy and rejuvenates you to enjoy life here on earth. Here red Spinel is found on white marble!

CRYSTALS: Grounding Anklets

To keep yourself grounded to physical reality (rather than spaced out), anklets are ideal! Smoky Quartz anklets are especially useful because of their grounding energies, connecting your energies to the physical earth. Smoky Quartz is a clear brown tinted Quartz crystal and anklets are an ideal location for grounding jewelry!

Request custom made Smoky Quartz anklets or check out the current stock!

CRYSTALS: in the car

I keep tumbled Red Jasper crystals on the sidedoor of my car, so that whenever I need a grounding back to reality, I can easily reach over and hold these smooth stones in my hand.

So often while driving our mind wanders and we become spaced out, which is obviously not the best state to be in while operating a vehicle!

MONEY MULTIPLIER: Day 6

Today I decided to do my money multiplying practice standing up, letting my spine stretch long. This helped me to ground my energies and connect the crown of my head to universal energy.

To achieve this kind of balance, we must maintain good posture. Just keep reminding yourself of the benefits of "length" whenever you realize your slumping tendencies. It can be done!

To further this exercise, imagine all the negativity in your body flowing down through the soles of your feet, through the floor, through the miles of dirt and releasing into the core of earth. Imagine positive energy flowing from the universe down from the sky, through your roof, into the crown of your head. Take as much as you want: it's infinite!

a bevy of cures

QUESTION: Hi Sheila, last summer you told me of some crystals I could use for my health conditions which are severe arthritis, bone on bone in the knees and the same in my spine, no disk left in lower back. You recommended mochi balls and selenite. I have a couple of pieces of selenite, one is a rounded wand for massaging, the other a narrow rectangle piece that splinters so it can't be used for massaging. I recently ordered the mochi balls from you on ebay, as well as some citrine tumbled stones and the window quartz pieces/palm stones. I have numerous books but still get overwhelmed.

How do I use the mochi balls? I got the citrine stones to give to my children who are financially struggling in this economy. I don't know why I got the crystal quartz, I guess that will be revealed to me on a need to know basis. I also want to take some gemstone elixir but don't know which stones to use...I think you may have told be calcite. Is that yellow, orange? How many stones do I put into each preparation, and how much water? Do I use spring water, tab water, distilled? And what kind of container? Would a quart fruit jar be ok? It is clear glass but has a metal lid.

I am considering ordering your Dad's book? I will maybe next month or ask for it for my birthday later this month. I may need to get some calcite stones from you for the elixir if you have the kind I need.

I also have a friend who is going through so much grief. Actually, two friends. One lost her husband suddenly. I made her an amethyst and rose quartz bracelet but I feel that she is still suffering a lot. My other friend lost her husband 2 years ago and recently lost her oldest son in a car accident. As I look through all my books on grief, nothing jumps out at me for her. I know apache tears is good for that but I don't have the beads to make jewelry and she isn't open to the whole idea of stones. I do this jewelry thing to help those that don't realize how much stones can help. They are open to wearing the jewelry. I clean it and dedicate it to them as their needs manifest themselves to the stone. It is my way of helping people who aren't open to this way of healing. I know one doesn't need to believe in them for them to work...they just have to wear the stones.

I thank you again and look forward to hearing from you and getting your suggestions


ANSWER:
The mochi balls you use by rubbing over the affected area. I haven't done this myself, but several clients who have arthritis swear by mochi balls, so I wanted to pass on this information!

The Citrine crystals make sure that your kids keep them wherever they keep cash so that there can be a flow. Many clients also swear by Citrine and it is commonly known as the "Merchant Stone". I myself prefer Aventurine and Bloodstone, but again, it's up to personal prefernce and resonance with each crystal.

Calcite comes in many different colors. I use one tumbled stone (3/4"-1") to one glass of water, more or less. You will come up with your own method, but to start off, you can use this measurement for elixirs. And the water is again up to you. Whatever you are used to drinking. I drink tap water, so that is what I use, but if you're used to some other kind of water, I would use that. A fruit jar is fine. If you are concerned with the metal lid, I would just place a paper towel over that top if you are concerned with impurities falling into the water while creating.

My dad's book, "Incredibly Believable!" is a wonderful, uplifting and easy to read book. Wherever he is now in the universe, he is looking out for us as all the advanced souls are. We overcome our mortal dilemmas and crystals are definitely an aid in the right direction.

For your friends going through grief, I would definitely stick with black stones because these are much stronger in absorbing and transmuting negativity. If you can't find Apache Tear beads, definitely use Obsidian. Apache Tears are a form of Obsidian.

I also started my own jewelry line since we last emailed, you can check it out at http://sheilasatin.etsy.com/ and if you have any custom requests, I am happy to create!

You are certainly correct, you don't have to believe in the crystals for them to work! But it's just the more powerful when you do accept their energies :)
