      To be very open with you all, last year (at 32 yrs of age) I had a full hysterectomy and bladder repair. I was also diagnosed with PTSD and bipolar (on top of alreadybeing diagnosed with severe anxiety and severe depression. I found myself with my own personal pharmacy. I didn't like being on so many medications. My practices in yoga and chakra healing have nurtured me down to five out twenty-two medications. It has been difficult to find medical professionals that agree with my using these methods but I am living the proof.

    A “rooted” heartfelt thank you Allie for offering these exceptional educational Chakra series on the Chakras. So many yoga instructors simply go through the “yoga movements/exercises mechanically” without explaining the connection to one’s mind, body, soul, energy and the effects blocked energy has or how the chakras work. I am taking in every piece of educational information you are offering along with doing your yoga practices. It has been making a deeper self- experience journey into my mind, body, soul, and soul healing. Thank you for your work in explaining these chakra connections and helping to be a the catalyst/change agent to become more mind, body, soul connected and ENLIGHTENED!! Sending peace and so much appreciation.

    This is my first time watching you videos Allie. Thank you for an excellent representation of the polarity of root chakra. Luckily this one does not get out of balance too often for me perhaps because of my plant based diet, yoga and LOVE of malasana. Will look at your solar plexus which is my troubling chakra.

      outdoor exercising! Running, cycling! This was my norm, I felt much more in my authenticity training this way. Much more light, & bouncy to match my adventurous mind.
      October 2020, I had switched to regular heavy weight training resulting in this now heavy, drained, and slow energy, which makes me feel so disconnected, but out of stubbornness to change my regime, I stuck to it.
      This information has motivated me entirely to make the switch.
      Thanks again Allie! Love your content!

    It's been (too) long since I sat and saw an Allie video. Felt good to be back. :-) Thank you, Allie, for consistently showing up and being here for us. Now, as to my root chakra, I see traits of all three states in me, but I think I'm tipping towards deficiency. Anyhow, one thing is for sure, and that is that I am feeling a need to ground myself.

    Reevaluating, probably like 3rd or 4th time going thru my chakras. I believe I have little of each, balance, deficient and excessive. I think I need get outside more walking and create a evening routine regarding making dinner, with a little more resistance training.

    Thanks Allie, I can see aspects of all three in my life, and there seems to be an oscillation between them.
    I have been working on myself using journalling as a starting point. I can see changes, the swings between excess and deficiency appear to be less frequent or obvious - mostly through activities/processes such as gardening, connecting with nature, mindfulness and gratitude. I haven’t returned to my mat after a shoulder injury but this will be soon I think, just not pushing it right now.
    I do appreciate this video and enjoy your relaxed approach.
    I’ve converted your markers from the video into check points in my journal and will use them to see how I’m tracking over a few weeks (without getting too much into my head again) 😊

    Hearing it all simplified like this now, I am seeing how much I have been coming into balance... from both in excess and deficiency in different areas...💚
    Staying with the root for a bit longer before I move up the chakra system again.
    Also as taken from your seasonal challenges, I have been showing up ‘perfectly imperfect’ 💚🙌(think I remembered it right? Its something like that 🤔🤣)

    Excess root. Overweight. Fearful of humans. Childhood trauma from sexual abuse. I suffer currently from severe sciatic leg nerve problems waiting for doctor's appointment on December four hoping to get an MRI. I'm normally a holistic and yoga type but the severe pain I have experienced lately scared me very much into seeing the ER 3 times in a row. I'm taking herbs but also Prednisone and Gabapentin which are pharma drugs and those probably have side effects I hope they don't have serious long term side effects. I'm grateful that I found your channel on Google.

    My root chakra is deficient. I have a blog, but I've been neglecting it a bit. The consistency of blogging once a week is too much for some reason. Same with the languages I'm learning. Being autistic I spent a lot of time in my head. I'm going to cleanse my root chakra tonight, and in the next few days, I'm going to do one of your earth yoga classes.

      Great question! Based on the teachers I've studied with, eating disorders are associated with the root chakra, but the various types can be deficient, excess or a blend depending on the circumstances. Eastern Body Western Mind by Anodea Judith is a fantastic resource if you're wanting more information.
