45 Powerful Root Chakra Affirmations for Empowerment

The first energy center of the entire chakra system is the Root. It sits under each foot as well as in the space between the genitals and anus. This is the foundation of strength, fortitude, grounding and having a solid connection with the earth. It is our will to survive with a deep understanding of purpose and a sense of safety.

It is from this that all other chakras operate. When there’s a Root Chakra imbalance, the rest of the system is also out of whack. Saying any one of these powerful Root Chakra affirmations can help realign this center and strengthen your spiritual connection to the Universe.

I’ll give you some examples of affirmations you can use to power up the root chakra but I always suggest picking and choosing the affirmations that suit you best at this moment. I would select no more than 10 and, if you need some guidance, you can download the affirmation workbook and follow the 7-day blueprint for making your affirmations even more potent.

How Affirmations Help Your Root Chakra

Many things encompass our lives that make us believe our existence is wrong or that we don’t have a right to live. These kinds of attacks and accusations are directly accosting the Root which removes us from our connection to the earth element. It destroys our feelings of safety, which then perpetuates a vicious cycle of having an imbalanced Root Chakra.

Everyone born has the right to exist. This isn’t up for debate or argument. The universe has a special role for each of us and no human has a right to determine who can or cannot exist. So, anyone making such claims is only mirroring their own deficient or overstimulated chakra.

What It Does & Doesn’t Do

These base chakra affirmations can help provide deep connections to security, safety and grounding. It literally roots you to the earth and this waking reality. However, if you do a search online, you might think that this is a magical, fairy-like chakra bestowing money, friends and acceptance by others.

This shows a lack of perspective that equates the Root to other chakras like the Heart, Solar Plexus or Crown. These are pure fallacies muddying the waters of real chakra development and reinforce a closed mind. While it’s true the Root influences and connects to the rest, they do not stem from it.

For example, feelings and love are under the sole tutelage of the Heart Chakra, not the Root. So, saying chakra affirmations from the Root to gain the love of other people will further compound unbalanced energy because the focus isn’t in the Heart Chakra. The Root is about accepting yourself, not finding it from someone else.

It’s about Abundance, NOT Getting Rich

Also, this kind of misinformation might have you thinking it can bring millions of dollars. This simply isn’t true. It’s when all your chakras are working in harmony that outside influences and material abundance come beyond what we need to live.

That said, the Root does deal in material safety, but our Western mindsets mistakenly conflate that with money. Although that’s part of it, it’s something of a warped understanding. A balanced Root Chakra means you have all the food, water, clothing, shelter and other necessities for basic survival. So, it’s not about outdoing competitors or being richer than your neighbors.
