Swadhisthana the Sanskrit word meaning “one’s own abode,” is an apt definition for an energy center focused on personal pleasure. Encased in this description is the essence of water, which extends idealistically to the concepts of flow, flexibility, and dare we say fun!

The 2nd chakra is named sacral chakra for a reason, as it is located in the lower abdominal region, and “inner pelvis,” as some describe. Ensuring the health of Svadhisthana should be a priority to those who might be feeling stuck in a cycle of low energy, depression, or even workaholic tendencies. Those with digestive, urinary and kidney issues, and low back trouble, as well as those who consistently find themselves in challenging relationships, or no relationships, should consider putting attention on healing this chakra.
