The Muladhara – or the root chakra – is your body’s first chakra. Represented by the color red, you can find it at the base of your spine.
As the foundation of all other chakras, a blocked root chakra can affect your stability, security, and survival.
As such, having an imbalanced Muladhara may make you feel depressed, anxious, sluggish, and insecure. In the long run, you may even find yourself ‘drifting’ to nowhere.
To prevent this from happening, you will need to do several things – and one of them is reciting root chakra affirmations for a grounded life. Here are 100 great examples:

Balancing your root chakra
More than just reciting these affirmations twice a day every day, there are several other things you could do to help balance your root chakra.
See the color red
Since the root chakra is embodied by the color red, you can help rebalance it simply by visualizing this color.
Start by imagining a bright red light located at your tailbone. Allow this light to travel from your legs to your feet – essentially ‘anchoring’ you down to the ground.
Focus on certain yoga poses
Many yoga asanas are effective in clearing blocked chakras. But if you want to work on your Muladhara, you’ll need to focus on these poses:
- Uttanasana or standing forward fold
- Malasana or Garland pose
- Vrikshasana or tree pose
Breathe well
Breathing exercises, or the pranayama, are integral to the practice of yoga. And just like the asanas, certain pranayamas may help you balance your root chakra.
One such example is the Nadi shodhana or alternate nostril breathing. As the name suggests, you’ll need to occlude one nostril as you breathe through another, and vice-versa.
The sitali pranayama or cooling breathing is another good option for your Muladhara. It can bring about a cooling sensation – and get you grounded in no time.
Meditate
Meditation is not only beneficial for the root chakra as it works on other chakras as well.
For example, body scan meditation can help you get rid of all the tension and pain lingering in your body.
Focused meditation, on the other hand, can help you reach your goal – and that is to clear your Muladhara.
Remember: once your chakra flows freely, you’ll be able to ground yourself faster since you’ll feel safer, comfortable, and confident.
Final thoughts
Grounding yourself is all about being connected in the present moment. It’s having a strong and stable mind, one that’s free of distracting thoughts and emotions.
Indeed, it’s easy for the mind to fly – especially with the sensory overload we experience today.
But with these 100 root chakra affirmations for a grounded life, you’re sure to stay ‘connected’ to the earth.
