The chakra system distributes the flow of prana or energy throughout your subtle body. Stress, illness, emotional upset, and conflict can cause blockages or imbalances in your chakra system. All of the seven chakras are interconnected; when one chakra experiences a blockage or imbalance, it affects all the others. This energy disruption can cause your mind, body, and spirit to suffer.

When your Muladhara Chakra is imbalanced, it cracks the foundation of the whole chakra system. If you are just starting your chakra journey, balancing your Muladhara Chakra first is important. Imbalance in this chakra can cause you to find yourself coping with threats to your survival. These threats can be moving, changing jobs, reoccurring health problems, weight problems, a sense of fear, or insecurity.

Underactive Muladhara Chakra — When a chakra is underactive, it means that it is experiencing a blockage or is not distributing the flow of energy. When your Muladhara Chakra is underactive, it can affect your overall health.
