An additional blanket or pillow under the buttocks may also be beneficial and steadying... The root chakra is the 1st chakra. Its energy is based on the earth element.

1. Colors Notice what colors you are drawn to...if your root chakra feels out of balance, wear red, eat red foods, seek red where you can. Each chakra identifies with its own unique color, try incorporated the colors according to your needs. 2. Food Adjust your diet to take in more food of the same colour of the Chakra you are trying to balance. Using the root chakra as an example once again, try adding more red colored foods to your diet i.e., tomatoes, radishes, beets, peppers, pomegranates. 3. Sound Just as colour has a frequency, so too does sound. Our energy resonates to specific musical notes. Root = C, Sacral = D, Solar Plexus = E, Heart = F, Throat = G, Third Eye = A, Crown = B. Listening to music in the above notes will stimulate that particular energy center. SOUNDBATHS are excellent for rebalancing the chakras. 4. Toning We can also use our own voice to create tones to stimulate and balance the energy centres. Place both hands on the energy centre that feels out of balance, then begin to sound your deepest possible tone saying "AUM", gradually getting louder. 5. Essential oils Essential oils also resonate at a particular frequency and can be used to balance chakras. They can be applied directly or by inhaling. 6. Visualization Visualization is quite possibly the most powerful tool of all. Sitting in meditation, visualise drawing energy up from the centre of the earth and cleansing each energy centre, with the relevant colour, sound and frequency.
