Hello Beautiful Soul. We begin our deep dive journey into the main shadow qualities for each chakra. The first video (above) is much longer than the others to come because it includes an introduction and five ways you can integrate a shadow quality that applies to ALL the shadow videos in the weeks to come.
So be sure to watch the entire video above so you can carry the shadow integration tools forward as we go through each chakra in the weeks to come. I’m hoping I can make all the other videos 12 minutes or less (wish me luck – haha).
If you don’t know what shadow is or how it relates to the chakras, please check out this video: Shadow and the Chakras.
As you know, the root chakra is the lowest densest chakra. It’s red and it’s related to the foundational things in our lives like a home, health, financial stability, family/tribe, work, and safety. It’s also all about the material world and gets your most basic needs met.
The shadow qualities for this chakra are the ones that are related to these areas and are usually considered “negative.” Typically, we are conditioned to reject these parts of ourselves at a very young age, so we literally hide these parts of ourselves in order to be accepted and loved and to get our basic needs met.
Unfortunately, when we hide parts of ourselves, we lose energy, power, and our full potential.
Why do we need to reclaim “negative” qualities? There are many reasons, but the two biggest ones are: 1) We lose energy and power when we hide pieces of ourselves (and as slices of the Divine, we have the potential of every quality within us). And 2) Chakras energy doesn’t know the difference between “good” and “bad.” If you deny your root chakra shadow qualities and hide them away, then you lose some of your power to have good health, wealth, home, family and other things that are related to having a strong root chakra.
So it’s a good idea to embrace your root shadow qualities.
Here are the 5 Shadow Qualities of the Root Chakra (watch the video to get more info on each one)
- Needy
- Greedy
- Unaware/Stupid
- Lazy
- Fearful
And here are my 5 favorite ways to integrate these shadow qualities:
- Find the Gift in the Shadow
- Do EFT/Tapping (watch this video to learn how)
- Love Yourself with the Shadow Quality (Work with Your Inner Child)
- Elicit Memories of Being the Shadow Quality
- Take Back Your Shadow Projections
For #5, I recommend doing Byron Katie’s the work and filling out her awesome Judge Your Neighbor Worksheet when you find that you are triggered by someone.
Of course, there are more Root Chakra Shadow qualities, so please feel free to share any that you’ve discovered. In fact, consider it part of your shadow work. If you’re brave enough to claim a shadow quality publicly, you’re already integrating it!
And I love it when we do this work collectively. It’s so much more powerful!
That’s it for now, Beautiful Soul. Next week, we’ll look at the sacral chakra.
Love and blessings,
Vicki
