Wayne Dyer so wisely said, "You cannot always control what goes on outside. But you can always control what goes on inside. You are not stuck where you are unless you decide to be." I couldn't agree more! Since everything is energy and emanates a mood, it is vital that empaths and highly sensitive people learn how to mitigate the energy around them by managing their energy mindfully and purposely. The difference between someone who minds their energy and one who doesn't can be determined by their health and wellbeing. Once you embrace and cultivate your empathic self, you become an Enchanted Empath who uses her sensitivity as her healing superpower!

How To Allow Pleasure & Joy Into Your Life Post-Election
In this second episode of our Chakra Healing Series, we explore the Sacral Chakra, a powerful center of creativity, pleasure, and adaptability—qualities that are especially vital in times of collective stress and uncertainty. Located in the pelvic area, the sacral chakra connects us to the richness of life’s experiences and is the source of our passion and resilience. While the root chakra grounds us with stability, the sacral chakra invites us to connect with joy, beauty, and creativity, helping us find balance amidst challenges like post-election anxiety.
The Essence of the Sacral Chakra
The sacral chakra, also known as Svadhisthana, which translates to "sweetness", is our pleasure center and the gateway to life’s sensory beauty. This chakra allows us to experience feelings of joy, connection, and creativity. It’s through this energy center that we engage fully with our world—through sights, sounds, tastes, touch, and emotions. By nurturing our sacral chakra, we’re reminded that life includes moments of sweetness and beauty, even when the external world feels turbulent. It is associated with the color orange and corresponds to the suit of Cups in the Tarot.
"Look deep into nature, and then you will understand everything better."

Challenges to the Sacral Chakra
Today’s world often discourages passion and sensitivity, encouraging us to suppress our emotions rather than embrace them. We are taught to second-guess our natural impulses and even feel guilt for taking pleasure in the simple joys of life. These societal pressures can result in a disconnected sacral chakra, where we may feel numb or lack inspiration.
When the sacral chakra is blocked or imbalanced, we might experience feelings of inadequacy, emotional unfulfillment, or low motivation. On the other hand, an overactive sacral chakra can lead to addictive behaviors and overindulgence as a means of coping. A balanced sacral chakra allows us to stay grounded in our passions and creativity, empowering us to respond to challenges with adaptability and resilience.
Reconnecting with Your Sacral Energy
Restoring balance to the sacral chakra starts with becoming aware of your relationship with pleasure, creativity, and connection. Consider whether you feel open to life’s sensory experiences, like savoring food, music, and the beauty of nature. Here are ways to nurture this energy center:
* Embrace Movement: Dance, yoga, and even mindful stretching help release blocked energy in the hips and pelvis.
* Find Beauty in Your Surroundings: Take in the sights, sounds, and colors of nature, or bring more orange—the sacral chakra’s color—into your space.
* Explore Your Senses: Savor a favorite meal, try a new scent, or listen to inspiring music. Giving attention to the senses can reawaken our creative flow.
Essential Oils for the Sacral Chakra
Using essential oils can gently open the sacral chakra. Scents like patchouli, jasmine, and wild orange stimulate sensuality, creativity, and inner calm. Diffuse them at home, allowing the fragrances to support your journey to self-connection.
Sacral Chakra Affirmations
Affirmations are simple yet powerful tools to activate the sacral chakra. Practice these regularly:
* “I am open to life’s beauty and sweetness.”
* “I allow myself to experience pleasure and creativity.”
* “I am adaptable and resilient in times of change.”
