65 Root Chakra Affirmations For Healing & Grounding

There are many ways to clear and heal a blocked root chakra, and working with affirmations can be incredibly powerful and help to ground us.

Have you ever felt unsafe in your body? Does life feel chaotic and out of control? Are you struggling to sort out the basic foundations of your life (home, health, and wealth)?

If you’re nodding your head, you might need some root chakra healing.

“Chakra” means “disk” or “wheel” in Sanskrit. These wheels are energy centers in the body that run from the base of your spine to the crown of your head. Each chakra is connected and related to different nerve bundles and organs.

There are seven main chakras (we actually have many more than this, but I won’t go into detail on those here).

Here are the seven chakras:

• Root chakra (first chakra)
• Sacral chakra (second chakra)
• Solar plexus chakra (third chakra)
• Heart chakra (fourth chakra)
• Throat chakra (fifth chakra)
• Third eye chakra (sixth chakra)
• Crown chakra (seventh chakra)

What is the root chakra?

The root chakra (also known as the Muladhara) is located at the very base of your spine and is represented by the color red. This chakra gives us a strong foundation for life, connects us to mamma earth, provides us with strength, and helps us navigate any challenges that may come our way. It creates a sense of security, grounding, and stability. You’ll notice that the root chakra affirmations in this post all center on these core themes.

The root chakra is also connected to men’s sexual energy. In contrast, women’s sexual energy is connected to the sacral chakra (because our sexual organs sit higher in our physical bodies).

When the root chakra is balanced, we feel like our basic needs are taken care of, and we feel a sense of belonging in the world. We have a healthy relationship with our bodies and a strong sense of self-worth. We flow in our lives, and life feels easy and abundant.

Because the root chakra is the first of the seven chakras, you can think of it like the roots of your energetic inner tree. Your roots must be healthy and strong if you want the rest of you to grow, be healthy, and flourish. If there’s an imbalance here, it will affect all the other chakras. This is why if you’re new to chakra healing, it’s best to start with the root chakra.

What are the symptoms of a root chakra blockage?

All seven chakras can become blocked. This can cause them to be overactive, underactive, or a mix of the two.

Symptoms of an underactive root chakra

• Weak physical body
• Discomfort or disconnection in your physical body
• Underweight
• No care for your diet
• No interest in food
• Low physical strength and endurance
• Self-doubt
• Low self-worth
• Low self-esteem
• Weak or undefined boundaries
• Lack of sense of belonging
• Sloppiness with personal care
• Struggling to be present in the moment
• High fear
• Feeling unsafe
• Disorganized

Symptoms of an overactive root chakra

• Egoism
• Greed
• Hoarding
• Self-centered
• Feeling heavy or stiff
• Lazy/stagnant
• Easily annoyed/triggered by people and situations
• Excessive negativity
• Overeating
• Overweight
• Feeling stuck in life
• Resisting and avoiding change
• Strict
• Rigid boundaries
• Eating disorders

The affirmations in this post are created to help you heal all of these root chakra blockages.

A note on affirmations

Affirmations are positive statements, usually beginning with “I” or “I am,” that help us rewrite the negative, limiting beliefs and stories we hold in our minds. They are written in the present tense and with positive, empowering words.

Pausing To Savor What I Treasure

It’s okay to create or work with an affirmation, even if it’s not your truth right now. For example, if you don’t feel abundant but want to, you might choose to work with the affirmation, “I am standing in the flow of abundance and ready to receive.” That’s the whole point of affirmations—they help us embody something that we aren’t quite there with yet.

However, you don’t want to lie to yourself and ignore what’s going on in your physical world. For example, if you’re currently in an abusive relationship, the affirmation “I am safe” would not be true for you. A better affirmation would be, “I am strong enough to leave my abusive relationship.”

Also, while affirmations are great, they are only positive statements. Using these alone is unlikely to create much change in your world. Combine affirmations with choices and actions that support your intentions. This is where you’ll start to shift things.
