survivalgroundingsecuritystabilitythe body
The root is the first vote — safety, shelter, the body's basic right to exist undisturbed. She sits at the base of the spine, closest to the earth, and everything above her is built on whatever answer she's given. A settled root doesn't feel like excitement. It feels like weight that isn't a burden.
when she's blocked
chronic anxiety, money fear that outlives the actual money problem, feeling unwelcome in your own body, restlessness with no name.
affirmation
“I am safe. I am held. I belong here.”
