Chakras are spinning "wheels" or vortices of energy originating in the ancient Vedic tradition dating back as far as 1500-500 BCE. They are part of what is known in modern yoga as the "subtle body" and they influence our spiritual, emotional, and physical expression of ourselves. Each chakra is associated with specific aspects of our being.
The root chakra is the center where we ground ourselves and take care of our basic needs. The most primitive responses to life-threatening situations involve energy at Muladhara Chakra. As such it is related to the very basic fear of being attacked or injured. Conversely, it is also related to attacking, being aggressive and searching out prey. One who has an unregulated focus of energy at this chakra is constantly afraid of being injured or has a strong tendency to hurt and injure others.
Symptoms of an over-developed root chakra include greed, recklessness, hyperactivity, carelessness, diarrhea, wasting away.
Symptoms of an under-developed root chakra include insecurity, poverty, low energy, listlessness, clumsiness, constipation, obesity, and chronic fatigue.
Someone with a balanced Muladhara Chakra will be healthy, fit, grounded, prosperous, centered and strong. An open and healthy root chakra gives one the quality of stability as they have conquered the tendency of seeing the world in black and white terms.
