“To keep the body in good health is a duty…otherwise we shall not be able to  keep our mind strong and clear.” – These words by Buddha act as a universal testimony in the court of our lives. A good health not only means a fit body but it also includes the inner mechanism of energy flow, that is, our chakras. Since, man is a social animal; therefore, living a secluded life proves to be a bane for him. The chakra that is responsible for our relationship with others is the Sacral Chakra. Also known as the Sexual Chakra or Spleen Chakra, it controls our emotions, desires, imagination and creativity.
 
There is no dearth of people who are immensely health conscious, thanks to the trend set by the celebrities. They are always cautious of what they eat, how they eat and when they eat. Jogging for miles, exercising for three hours on an average, health supplements, intake of only organic food, you name it and they do it. In contrary, these people still complain about feeling recluse, unhappy and of a void that makes them feel empty from inside. Keeping a tab of yourself, only shows that you care about your body, which is a good thing. However, keeping only the working of the body in check and not its chakras is a matter of concern.
 
“Swadhisthana”, as the Sacral Charka is known in Sanskrit language, showers a person with creative, inspired energy when it is open, healthy and whirling. The second chakra of the body holds the authority to manipulate, halt or to add tempo to our imagination. Our desires to reach out for the things that we adore, nature of raise questions or our ability to make decisions are come under this chakra. When our Sacral Chakra is blocked, we feel that it is acceptable to be looked down upon, the desire to raise questions diminishes, and decision making seems like a distant territory. The Sacral Chakra largely influences our sexual requirements and wishes too. An imbalance in this chakra can lead to impotency, lack of sense of touch or intimacy, deficiency of social skills, or it could lead to opposite outcomes such as, addiction to sex, molestation, rape, treating other people as sex objects. In both the cases, blockage of the chakra only causes trouble and nuisance for us.
 
Now, as we are aware of the deadly results of an imbalanced Sacral Chakra, it is needless to say that proper health of the chakra is of chief significance. To soothe your chakra in a calm and easy way, you have to understand the root cause of the imbalance of the chakras and their cures in a very effective way. There are countless benefits of a perfectly healthy Sacral Chakra. With a valuable doorway to the world of creativity and ideas, we can accomplish greater challenges in our life. When our chakra spins steadily, we tend to become more joyful, happy and content. We get a clear idea of our desires and do not back off from accomplishing them. Need for pleasing others ceases to exist and getting their approval does not set the course for our actions. A satisfactory and guilt-free sex life allows us to be strong and confident.
 
With abundance of benefits from a healthy Sacral Charka, no question of keeping it under the weather arises. So go forth and reap its benefits.
