Associated Chakra:
Muladhara / Root chakra

The root chakra is located at the base of the spine. It connects us to the earth and represents survival and security. This chakra, which is linked to the adrenal glands, collects energy for our physical base, survival and well-being: the skeletal system, the blood, the large intestine, the legs and the feet are all fed by the root chakra.

Over-activity in this chakra makes us aggressive, selfish and pushy. We become too attached to material reality and get stuck in literal perceptions of reality. One may be prone to obesity, greed laziness, and fixation on acquiring material wealth.

Underactivity in this chakra can lead to feelings of inadequacy, disappointment and depression. Disorderliness, indiscipline, insecurity, fear, lack of energy and disorganisation also indicate an underactive root chakra. The feeling of not being connected to your body, 'poverty consciousness' and not being able to set and maintain boundaries are also signs of an energy deficiency in this chakra.

When the root chakra is balanced, we feel vital, alive and able to support ourselves. We are grounded and have a sense of security and connection to the earth. We are able to realise our dreams and enjoy a sense of prosperity and confidence that all our physical needs are met.

Just as trees depend on a deep root network beneath the surface of the earth to support and anchor themselves, so too we are nourished and supported by connection to the earth.

Use of the Colour Essences

As a general rule, take 4 drops of the chosen essence in water, 3 times a day for 4 weeks.

You can use the Colour Essences on their own or in combination with the Tree Essences. These help to ground the particularly high frequencies of the Colour Rays and integrate them into the body and energy field.

Read about the healing properties of each tree to find out which Colour Essence you can combine with which Tree Essences.

Each Colour Essence has a corresponding Tree Essence which can also be added to the water. In addition, each Colour Essence has a complementary Colour Essence. These can also be added to bring balance.

You can also apply the blend to pulsation points and pressure points.

Meditate on the accompanying affirmation to further enhance the effect of the Essence.

Keep a journal to record dreams, memories and thoughts that arise during the period you use the tree remedy. This helps to raise your awareness of old thought patterns, feelings or beliefs that may be ready to be released.
