Sacral Chakra - Svadhisthana
Life isn't meant to be all about routines and responsibilities. Sometimes, you need to create, feel, enjoy and simply flow.
That’s the energy traditionally associated with the Sacral Chakra, or Svadhisthana—the second chakra in the seven-chakra system.
At RIAS, we see chakras as intentions for mindfulness and self-reflection, rather than medical concepts.
What Is the Sacral Chakra?
The Sacral Chakra is traditionally located below the navel and is associated with creativity, pleasure, emotions, connection and flow.
Its energy is about allowing yourself to experience life—not just control it.
Think: “I allow myself to feel. I allow myself to create. I allow myself to enjoy.”
