Power Up Your 1st Chakra, Power Up Your Profits

You are working like a madwoman. Your days are packed with clients and when not client-serving, you are up in your head all day long, thinking and analyzing, to the point where your head feels like it’s going to explode.  You feel like there’s not enough time in the day to manage your workload let alone make time for your family and yourself. A feeling of anxiety and being all over the place washes over you. AHHHHH!!

Energetically, when these events are taking place, you are not embodied. Your energy is literally bunched up in your head in your Analyzer. The Analzyer is an energy center that houses the energy of the rational mind, the concrete intellect. When you meditate and your mind wanders, you are in your Analzyer.

This is where the first chakra can help. The first chakra is the foundation for the entire chakra system. It sets and regulates the energy of the physical body (so you don’t feel like you are being pulled in a million different directions).  When set properly, it roots you into your body, the physical world and the Earth.

Why is this important in your business? 

Think about all the circumstances and people, which you encounter that can easily knock you off your game (unhappy clients, unexpected deadlines, IT issues).   The first chakra allows you to operate from a place of grounded self-awareness no matter who or what is going on around you. When you are anchored in your own awareness, you can effectively deal with the ups and downs of your day no problem.

Further, if you’re not present and grounded energetically, how will you know where you’re going?  It is when you are able to access your true sense of self that you can sit quietly and set clear intentions on what you want to manifest for your business (Intention + Attention=Manifestation). Have you ever made a sound business decision in a scattered, stressed out state of mind? Probably not. Remember energy flows where attention goes, so if you set an intention to get yourself grounded and make your decisions from that place of grace and ease, then your experience will flow gracefully and easily.

Why might you have a hard time grounding from your first chakra?
If you like to be in control and have a hard time asking/receiving help from others, then the idea of being supported by the Earth’s energy may be a difficult concept for you to grasp energetically. That said, with practice, grounding from your first chakra is totally doable and hopefully you have seen why it’s good for your own well-being as well as your business.  Stay tuned as next week I will be giving you some free gifts to help you ground!!

Until the next time, remember, you are what you think!!
