Root chakra (Muladhara) - 1st Chakra
Also called the base chakra, it is located halfway between the genitals and the anus. It is combined with the color red and the sense of smell. When working with it, it's a good idea to reach for stones such as ruby, black tourmaline, hematite, fire agate, as well as scents such as cedar, clove, cinnamon, eucalyptus, myrrh, patchouli, musk and lavender.

A balanced Root Chakra can provide emotional strength in the face of fear and anxiety. This results in feeling grounded and secure. However, an imbalance here can cause a variety of mental illnesses and stress which can also affect overall physical wellness. The Muladhara Chakra is associated primarily with survival. Other emotions linked to this energy center include:

- Feeling safe
- Feeling secure
- Survival mindset
- Feeling grounded
- Self-preservation
